RULES:
For cancellations, please note that we do charge a payment processing fee (3%) on top of our cancellation policy.
We also charge $150 for an unapproved late checkout.
Smoking is strictly prohibited inside our property. You can smoke outside the property but we will just ask to make sure the smoke doesn't go inside and dispose of cigarette butts properly. Violation of our non-smoking policy will result in a minimum fee of $500.

No parties or events.
We only accept pets that are under 50 pounds and we'll just ask for a picture.
Pet Fee is $165 (max 2). This is a one-time, non-refundable fee as it causes a lot of extra cleaning for our crew, extra wear, and tear on the house and we have to shampoo the furniture as we have some guests who are allergic to pets.
No pets on furniture, please! Also, please clean up your pet's feces or we will charge an additional $40 fee if uncleaned feces are found.
Quiet hours in Austin start at 10 PM, which means no guests are allowed outside or in the backyard after 10 PM. We know it's gorgeous out there, but our #1 priority is keeping the neighbors happy and this being a successful vacation rental for the long-term—and the only way that works is if this rule is followed. Note: There is a $500 fine for any noise violations.
You can use the paddleboards, kayaks, water lily, and private slip at no extra charge.

I stayed here with a group of friends in and could not have asked for a better experience. From the start of the booking process Lucas and his team were so responsive and kind, always answering my questions promptly and professionally. The house itself was beautiful, clean, had all the amenities we could need throughout the weekend, and the setting was simply perfect. The only thing I would note is that we opted of from swimming off the dock as there was a lot of in-water vegetation surrounding it, but hey, that's a lake for you! They do have plenty of water toys to use and a boat slip if you want to take advantage of the water during your stay. I also wanted to note that although the house is a little "out there" from Austin proper, we had no problem getting Ubers, and popping out to the city for an afternoon or up to Lake Travis for a boat day was a breeze. In summary, we had the best time and would recommend staying here to anyone who is looking for a lake getaway with their family and friends. 10/10!

We stayed during the flood, so did not use as many of the outdoor amenities as we might have. But the property is gorgeous, even in rain, and it was easy to imagine how lovely it would be in better weather. It was spacious and well-equipped for a family trip. We would stay again.
