Clean, nice, practical for the family

We really enjoyed our staying. The apartment has everything you need so you don't have to move, or eat out especially now with the pandemic. Spacious, clean, safe, close to the lake, HEB and Ink State Park. Just writing about it makes me wanna go back!

Very clean and a very cute place!

We were so pleased with this condo. We plan on booking again. We had the pool and lake to ourselves, literally. It was so peaceful and relaxing. Our two girls had a blast. We will be back!

Great Family Gettaway

We loved it! We stayed four nights in September. Had some weather complications but, despite the weather we had a great stay. The place was so nicely decorated and super cozy. It was just a short walk down to the playground, pool and beach area at the lake. Our son, who is almost 3, loved the playground and loved the beach area. It was very convenient being able to just walk out the door and down the short path to everything. We will definitely stay here again!

Quiet area, but fun. I took 3 teenagers who don't like to go to the beach. They enjoyed swimming in the pool and in the lake. The beach area was very nice. The girls enjoyed swimming out to the platform and going down the water slide. Marble Falls is a short drive away with restaurants and shopping, as well as a unique downtown area.

The unit was clean inside. No TV in bedroom was a bit disappointing for a vacation stay. The front door deadbolt had issues and couldn't close the door. The screens for sliding glass doors were both off track and one fell on me while sitting on the balcony. One sliding glass door lock did not properly work, which was nerve racking having our toddler able to open the balcony door so easily. The bedroom door knob was broken. Overall maintenance is lacking for something they want to charge market price for. It needs upkeep or a discount. Also, it is the furthest unit away from the beach, which would've been nice to know as we thought we were getting lakefront housing. The balcony had tons of bird droppings all over it. Not all fresh. It appeared it had been quite awhile since the balcony was cleaned properly. The owner addressed the front door lock within 12 hours, but did not address or even acknowledge the other items I brought up. Quite disappointing.

Hill Country Road/Lake Trip

We rented this property due to location and proximity to other family on the lake. It was perfect for what we needed. This unit is close to the road first set of apartments. It’s a decent walk to the beach area and larger pool. The smaller pool was closed for repairs and we did not find this out until we had already booked. These things didn’t bother us since we were Leaving each day to meet up with family on the lake. This unit is older very affordable. Decorated cute. We would stay here again but If I was vacationing at the lake for a week, I would pick something closer to the water. One of the lights in the bathroom was out when we arrived and the owner was quick to change it for us! We arrived about 20 minutes prior to check in and the owner was very nice and let us in a few minutes early!

Okay

We were disappointed it wasn't close to any of the cities, everything seemed like a far drive. The property was beautiful but the bed was very uncomfortable and the tv selection was lacking. Also the dumpster was pretty far whith only a small trash can inside. Overall the stay was good just probably wont be back.

Great place for a get away!

My husband and I needed a change of scenery without driving a long way. This is a nice, quiet place to do that. We enjoyed walking around the property, swimming in the pool, grilling and driving around the surrounding areas. Our daughter-in-law and two grandkids joined us for part of the stay. I would definitely go back to this rental.

Nice place to stay

Everything was as in the pictures. The only thing that I did notice was that there was no tv in the bedroom. The condo was clean and had all the kitchen essentials I needed. Nice little get away and the beach area was nice to visit. Had a good time here with my family. Just need to update the pool code. Would definitely come back to the same place to visit again!!

Amazing, relaxing stay!

We had such a great time! The condo was very clean and nice and everything we could possibly need. The amenities included with our stay were amazing, we had a great time lounging in the pool and the lake. We even had friends staying a few doors down. We all want to come back and enjoy this place asap. Even the people who lived there were welcoming and so nice! Makes me want to move to Marble Falls!
