Family Lake Retreat | Hot Tub, Game Room & Lake Access

Welcome to Your Lake Travis Family Retreat

Some of life's best memories aren't made on busy schedules.

They're made around the dinner table after a day on the lake. Watching the sunrise with a cup of coffee. Teaching the kids to catch their first fish. Laughing over a game of pool before ending the evening beneath the Texas stars in your private hot tub.

If that's the vacation you're looking for, welcome home.

This private three-story Lake Travis retreat was thoughtfully designed for families who want to spend quality time together while still having room for everyone to relax. Whether you're planning a summer vacation, a holiday getaway, or simply taking a break from everyday life, you'll find spaces that naturally bring people together.

Start your mornings on the rooftop deck overlooking Lake Travis. Spend the afternoon swimming or fishing from the shared swim & fish dock, reached by a private shared trolley used by just two homes. Fire up the grill for dinner, challenge the family to pool, ping pong or air hockey in the game room, then relax in the hot tub while the stars come out over the Texas Hill Country.

The home comfortably accommodates up to 10 adults and 2 children. The children's sleeping area includes a sleeper sofa located in the upstairs landing and is intended for children under 12, allowing families to stay together comfortably without compromising everyone's space.

Located in the peaceful lakeside community of Briarcliff, you'll be minutes from marinas, golf, wineries, local restaurants, hiking, and everything that makes Lake Travis one of Texas' favorite family vacation destinations.

Great for Family Thanksgiving!

We had the whole family here for Thanksgiving, great venue, very comfortable and all the amenities. The Master suite was very large and comfortable with an awesome fireplace. Only complaint was the fireplace in living room didn't work, but still a 5* experience!

Gorgeous house. Friendly host. Everything as advertised. Beautiful location. We will stay again. Outstanding. Only gripe is no overnight dock access, which the owner states clearly in descriptions, and that you are beholden to Texas rainfall for lake Travis water levels. The lake was full and beautiful for us but I would propose checking.

Awesome lakehouse

Great house (beautiful & roomy interior) with direct access to a dock on the lake and an awesome game room (pool, air hockey, etc). Property manager, Shelley, was very responsive and great to work with. About the only thing we’d recommend would be to add more pots and cookie sheets to make it an even better an excellent place to host a family, large family gathering for holiday but more pots are needed as we are big cooks when we are on vacation. Then suggest more noodles for floating in the lake.

Great spot for the solar eclipse

Rented this house for 6 adults and 4 kids to spend a fun weekend and watch the solar eclipse. House was very comfortable. Loved the hot tub and all the outdoor space on the patio and 2 decks. Easy check in and check out. Kitchen was well equipped, though it would've been nice to have a few more dishes and a non-stick pan. If you're considering renting this place and trying to figure out sleeping arrangements, be aware that the master bedroom is huge (takes up half of the second floor, and the second floor deck is only accessible through the bedroom). The other three bedrooms are much smaller. The bunk room in particular is very small, but it worked fine for our 4 kids who were all between 4 and 11 years old.

Beautiful home! Be respectful of neighbors and be quiet after 10pm outside!

This home is spectacular! The pictures do not do this beautiful home justice. Amazing kitchen with two ovens, immaculate throughout, and three decks of beautiful views! There were 8 of us and it felt like there could have easily fit 5 more people comfortably. The lake level is high enough for the views to be amazing. The hot tub was sparkly clean and the air hockey and pool tables were great for the kids. That being said, the homes are close together and the neighbors understandingly want quiet after 10pm. The owners do pay attention to their outside camera, so be sure to notify the agent if additional people plan to visit. If you are chill and watch the noise outside after 10pm, this house is a steal at current listed price.
