About this property
Texas style home 1/2 mile from Belton Lake for 8 Guests
Welcome to the fortress 🏡
**We are following the Guidelines & General Recommendations for Cleaning and Disinfecting our Household put out by Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Newly remodeled in 2014. Half mile from Belton Lake & 2 local boat launches. You will be one hour North of Austin and 45 min South of Waco. The house is perfect for family reunions, a nice relaxing vacation or a fun family Texas getaway. Great location for families looking to explore Waco's Magnolia attractions, Downtown Austin, Downtown Belton & the tasty Bbq attractions, historic town of Salado & their wonderful Wineries & Breweries or any of the beautiful surrounding lakes and rivers Central Texas has to offer.
Our home has 2 outdoor patios for seating and grilling and a 3rd patio area for relaxing on the hammocks with a fire pit. There are 3 bedrooms upstairs with a full bath (Queen room, bunkbed room with twin & full, and a 3rd room with 2 large couches). Master bedroom is located on the first floor with a nice jet tub and stand up shower and a walk in closet.
Downstairs has 2 massive couches for guests to sleep on and a TV with a surround sound entertainment system. There are 2 automatic blow up queen air mattresses for extra guests.
Garage parking is available for a small boat or car upon request. There is ample parking for 2 large pull behind, or two trucks with boats in the drive and 2 boats on the road
Driveway fits about 6 small cars, plus plenty of parking on the street for 3-4 cars. Our development has a tennis court and quiet streets for biking and walking. There are a couple camp grounds within a couple miles and plenty of fishing on Lake Belton.
Nearby Attractions~
There is a great restaurant that overlooks Lake Belton about 2 minutes away and a new Burrito Bar with a full bar 1/4 mile away. Bold Republic Brewery and Scores Pizza are our 2 favorites. There are plenty of dining options within 1-3 miles going toward downtown Belton, Salado and Temple. You are also 25 min from FT. Hood Army Base & Scott & White Hospitals in Temple & Harker Heights.

Why they chose this property
This property is very relaxing and has a ton of character with great energy. We love our home and are opening it up to anyone that needs a nice getaway or a spacious home to hold a family reunion or wedding. We have lots of room and tons of yard in the front and back for relaxing and events. We love the area of Belton and the unique character of the town. Lots to do close by and Austin, Georgetwon and Roundrock are only 35-60 min drive away.
What makes this property unique
We love the view from the dining room area into the deep backyard looking into the woods. Tons of beautiful birds and hummingbirds that come up to the large windows to feed. We have made lots of small touches to the home to make it warm, cozy, rustic and welcoming to everyone. The energy in the home is wonderful and were always doing little things to make it more like home :) Come stay with us anytime!
