About this property

Million Dollar Open-Water View on Lakefront with 2-Story Dock

This is an elevated beach house...on the point of a point on the lake...and (we believe) is the highest open-water view on this section of the lake. Full home office (dock, dual monitors, wireless mouse & keyboard, printer) allows you to work remotely (but please don't). We are premier hosts and have all 10-star reviews.

$100 surcharge for 2-night rentals will be reflected in your edited reservation. $150 surcharge to use our boatlift or double PWC lift for the duration of your stay.

Lake home with 3 bedrooms & 2 baths, open floor plan perfect for hanging out with friends and family! Panoramic, gorgeous views from the oversized (newly improved) 2-story deck (shade lower, sun upper). Master (queen bed) with bath (shower) and two guest bedrooms (queen bed in one, full/twin and twin/twin bunks in the other) share the second bath (tub/shower).

Ground-level features a screened-in porch with ceiling fans. Two large grassy areas with a 140-foot bulkhead water frontage for fishing and swimming. Firepits top (house level) and bottom (lakeside) with firewood provided. Two kayaks and a canoe, with life-preservers for adults and older kids (you will need your own for toddlers/infants). Rods and reels for amateurs (pros would be disappointed, so bring your own). Amazing lighting throughout the home, screen room and on the grounds.

The boat dock has a large shaded lower area for fishing and a giant upper-deck for sun and partying. The boat lift is electric and can handle a regular-sized boat up to a pontoon boat (5K lbs). Electric double PWC lift, too. If you need either lift, please advise in your reservation or inquiry.

The water level at our bulkhead is ~ 3 ft deep, making it a nice area to float with the young ones. Since you cannot see the bottom and there is no lifeguard, no diving and swim at your own risk. Watch the little ones closely, as the perimeter fence does not block waterline access.

Dog friendly with a fenced-in yard for a $25 per night, PER DOG fee up to 2 dogs (VRBO's quote to be manually adjusted if you have more than one dog). Dogs are not to be left alone on the property and are not permitted on beds or furniture, please. IF YOU ARE BRINGING PETS PLEASE LET ME KNOW TYPE(s) OF PET, NUMBER OF PETS AND THEIR WEIGHTS IN YOUR RESERVATION REQUEST. There is no fence preventing an old, clumsy, or careless pet from falling in the water over the bulkhead or dock and there is no way for an animal to get out on their own - so please watch them when loose.

This is a non-party, non-event, non-smoking property (smoking outside or on the deck is fine provided you leave no trace) but a great and quiet place for a small group of friends or family to get away from it all where we hope you'll treat our property like you would your own. Security cameras monitor the portico (2), deck (1), and boathouse (2). For privacy, guests may obscure/block the deck camera during their stay.

We are in a gated community with minimal traffic -- safe for kids to ride bikes with helmets -- and a fantastic community pool. Your name will be left with the ranger at the gate for initial entry and we have a key card for your continuing access during your stay. Nice getaway, only a little more than an hour from Houston.

REFUNDS: We've selected VRBO's most flexible refund policy available (full refund 14 days prior and 50% refund if canceled 7 days prior)...but we go EVEN FURTHER BY REFUNDING THE FULL AMOUNT (you must cancel by contacting us first) if we can book your canceled stay with someone else at or near the same rates.

*** Once you've booked through VRBO and return for another stay (and you will), book direct with us for an additional 15-20% total discount off VRBO's TOTAL BOOKING COSTS ***

See PDF rental agreement at Step 2 of 3 (Review rules & policies) when booking. It'll also be emailed with acceptance of your booking request. OUR EMAIL AND PHONE NUMBERS ARE INCLUDED IN THE AGREEMENT IF YOU'D LIKE TO COMMUNICATE PRIOR TO BOOKING.

Great weekend spot

We had a great time for the weekend. The owner was great to work with! The house had everything we needed and more. It has a beautiful view. The house was stocked with everything you needed for the stay. Loved that it was fenced in and furr baby friendly. It was great for the grand children and they loved being able to fish right at the house. We are for sure planning on going there again for another get away in the future.

Excellent House and Location

We have several years experience in staying in short term vacation rental homes. This is definitely among the very best. Certainly the location and view are superb. The house is very well equipped in every way and made our four day stay quite enjoyable in spite of the high ambient temperature and low lake level. Nothing that the owner could have done could have made it better. He took the initiative to contact us to ensure that our experience was meeting expectations. We would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful relaxing fun

I rented the house for my husband's birthday. The house was very well equipped, clean, with a beautiful view of the lake. We had fun kayaking, playing in the water, and just generally hanging out. If I had to say anything less than positive it would be that the roads after the main gate are a little rough. Of course, that is not the fault of the property owner. The yard is perfect for furry friends of the canine persuasion. I highly recommend staying here.

The experience and the view could not have been better!

We were looking for a relaxing weekend away to laugh, play games and just overall fun. This place was perfect for that. The view is spectacular and you can watch the sunrise from the front porch come over the lake. The openness of the livingroom, diningroom and kitchen makes you feel like you are not missing anything if people are talking on the couch and you are preparing food. Also, the porch is right off this great room and adds about another 1000 feet of living space with the couch and counter out there. Before our stay I had some questions about what was at the house and the owners were very quick to answer and also gave us additional information about the area that made our stay even better. We will be back!

My husband and I really needed a break from stressful jobs and this property filled the bill perfectly. We had such a wonderful time fishing and relaxing; we practically had the lake to ourselves in this off season adventure. The owner Steve was absolutely wonderful with promptness and tips for enjoying our stay. We would LOVE to return in the future. P.S. We did get to see the bald eagle nesting near the home. 🦅

Why they chose this property

Just look at the view from way up high over the lake! We decided to buy it before we ever went inside...and the inside is fabulous!
