French Château Lakefront Retreat w/ Pool, Hot Tub, Private Dock & Amazing Views

The Lake Château is a private, French château–inspired lakefront retreat in Granbury, Texas, designed for meaningful gatherings and unforgettable group stays. Surrounded by mature trees and abundant wildlife, this one-of-a-kind property blends old-world elegance with resort-style amenities and expansive indoor and outdoor living spaces.

Whether you’re planning a girls’ weekend, a multi-generational family escape, or a relaxed team retreat, The Lake Château offers space to spread out while still staying connected. Guests can spend their days floating in the pool, soaking in the oversized hot tub beneath the covered veranda, kayaking across the lake, or gathering together as the sun sets over the water.

The outdoor spaces are layered and intentional. A lower deck provides ample seating and dining space alongside a grill positioned right on the water. From there, a second tier leads to a cantilevered dock extending over the lake—perfect for launching kayaks or storing a small, shallow-bottom boat (please note there is no on-site boat ramp). Additional gathering areas include a custom-built fire pit surrounded by Adirondack chairs, a second-floor balcony overlooking the lake, a dedicated outdoor dining area, and multiple lounge spaces furnished for comfort and conversation. The pool area features sun-tanning loungers and generous seating, creating a relaxed, resort-like atmosphere throughout the property.

Inside, the home is designed to comfortably accommodate large groups while still offering privacy and quiet retreats. The Lake Château features three private bedrooms, one oversized bunk room, four full bathrooms, and one-half bath.

Accommodations

A serene retreat where vintage charm meets modern luxury. The suite features a striking round king-size bed, a curated vanity area with plush seating, and quad wall outlets throughout the bedroom and bathroom—allowing multiple guests to get ready with ease. The en suite bathroom includes both a bathtub and a shower with modern finishes.

Peacock Paradise Bedroom
Located upstairs, this private bedroom includes a queen-size bed, plush bedding, a large closet, a dedicated vanity area, and its own AC unit for personalized comfort. The bathroom connects to the adjacent Majesty Suite.

Majesty Suite
This upstairs bedroom features a comfortable queen-size bed and a set of bunk beds, sleeping three guests total. A connecting bathroom, spacious closet, and private AC unit make this room ideal for families or small groups traveling together.

West Palm Bunk Room
Encompassing the entire west wing of the home, this oversized bunk room doubles as a sleeping and living space. It includes two king-size beds, four twin beds, three trundle beds, and a pull-out couch—comfortably sleeping up to 12 guests in one area. The full bathroom is located inside the bunk room and offers direct access to the backyard, allowing it to function as a convenient pool bath.

Living & Gathering Spaces

The main living area is anchored by a stone fireplace (decorative only) and furnished with a down-filled sectional and custom leather chairs, offering ample room for the entire group to relax together. This space flows seamlessly into the sunroom, where a wall of windows frames views of the backyard, pool, and lake. Additional seating and a bistro table allow guests to spread out while remaining connected.

Dining

The vintage dining table seats eight, with room to add extra chairs as needed. Three French barstools at the kitchen island provide additional seating, while a console table behind the living room sofa—with three ottoman seats—can also be used for dining. Combined with the bistro table in the sunroom, the home can comfortably seat up to 18 guests for meals, games, or group activities.

Kitchen

The kitchen is fully equipped for group stays, with ample plates, flatware, cups, glasses, serving trays, and barware for both indoor and outdoor use. A coffee station with two drip coffee makers, coffee, and creamer is set up to serve multiple guests at once. The kitchen includes an electric oven and cooktop, along with pots, pans, baking dishes, and casserole dishes.

Laundry & Extras

A full-size washer and dryer are available during your stay. The laundry room also includes an iron, a small ironing board, a pack-and-play with sheets, and a high chair. Pool towels are provided and can be found on the top shelf of the pantry inside the laundry room or in outdoor bins on the back patio.

The Lake Château is a place to slow down, reconnect, and create lasting memories—where elegance meets ease, and every gathering feels intentional.

I stayed here with my large extended family. We all agree that it is was the most well stocked and nicely decorated Vrbo we have stayed in. We had everything we needed! There was so much to do, we ditched our plans to spend more time there. With fishing, kayaks, games, pool, hot tub, fire pit - there was something for all ages to enjoy. Would love to come back!

This property was amazing. Plenty of space, beds to equip all of us, lots of kitchen, necessities, and beautiful outside area. The only thing is that outside needed to be wiped down so that we could enjoy it a little bit more. Spiderwebs everywhere, and table outside needed to be wiped down. Had some small bug issues because of a window. I believe that doesn’t seal properly but outside of that, this was an amazing home.

Your place is stunning! The decor felt like we walked straight into an Anthropologie magazine. We took notes. ;) The backyard was our playground- we used it all, but the kayaks totally stole the show. The bunk room is an absolute must- have for our crew of kids. The lake is so peaceful and easy to enjoy. We’re honestly trying to figure out to convince you to sell it us, because we didn’t want to leave! Thank you for an unforgettable stay, we loved every second!

The house was decoration super cute and perfect for a girls space! The house can host 20 ppl however I would not suggest 20 adults. When we had issues come up, the host Jenna was very responsive which is appreciated. Now for the not so great parts. I’ve stayed in several AirBnb’s so this was not my first rodeo. Upon arrival the lockbox was dead to which the only way to access the house was to contact the host and get the spare set of keys out of a lockbox. We were warned about bugs and keeping the doors closed however once we arrived there were flies continuously in the kitchen as if the prior guests didn’t follow the rules or the cleaning crew. There were fly fans however they are rechargeable and not battery operated so it was a constant charge, switch fan, charge, etc the entire stay. The evening we arrived we had plans to grill burgers and in the middle of cooking the propane ran out and we could not locate any backup. We had to move all cooking inside and once host responded and alerted us where the propane was, it was located in the very back corner of a shed that was a mess. We had to move floats and life jackets and multiple items to find them. Not convenient. The same evening we arrived the sprinklers came on around 7pm, which meant #1 we couldn’t be outside in the yard and #2 everything was muddy by the fire pit and kayaks; such a mess. The hot tub never worked during our stay. A worker spent all Saturday afternoon on it which was weird to have him in our space.

Cute and funky decor

The house is very cute with all of the thoughtfulness of the decor, dishes, pillows, etc. It’s also large with plenty of areas to mingle, eat and relax. Overall the house is very cute and perfect for a big group of girlfriends. The only complaint was the amount of spiderwebs and dingy pool. The whole outdoor area could use a good leaf blow and wipe down of chairs. Although the pool vacuum was working, there was still some dirt and cloudiness at the bottom and on the steps.

Best River/Lake stay!

We loved everything about the house! The outside amenities were second to none! We enjoyed the pool so very much. The inside of the house was absolutely glamorous, and it had everything we could possibly need or want…More bedrooms than we could use, great climate control, huge fridge, lots of games and entertainment! We can’t wait to come back!
