The Palms on Lake Travis is an exclusive and privately-owned, gated, high-end, 3 story, waterfront, estate vacation rental home with a 2 story guest house for those who wish to relax on Lake Travis.
This Mediterranean-style jewel is CLEAN! This is our primary home. We live here and rent it out occasionally, and we are excited to share our extraordinary piece of Texas waterfront paradise with you! We expect our guests to treat our home with care and as their own.
The Palms is conveniently located lakeside, 1 mile from the Oasis ('The Sunset Capital of Texas') on the scenic Comanche Trail drive around the main basin of Lake Travis. This location is prime for those who want to enjoy Austin - it is only a 30 minute drive to downtown Austin and about a 35 minute drive to the Austin-Bergstrom International Airport!
Please note that we do not take bachelor parties, all-guy groups, spring break party groups, or any party groups,, as we strive to be a peaceful and relaxing getaway for families, couples, corporate, and girls weekends. If you are desiring more of a "party" atmosphere, then another location would be a better fit for your group. Thank you for understanding!
We do not take children under the age of 5, and those under the age of 25 years of age must be accompanied by a PARENT. Let's discuss if this is an issue for your group.
All children are included in the total guest count. If we have approved a child or baby under the age of 5, you can rent baby gear to make your travel easier at BabyQuip - https://www.babyquip.com?a=4285eb8. They will sanitize, drop off, and pick up of things like cribs, strollers, high chairs toys, and more to make your trip even easier.
Please submit inquiries with your information via the contact form or email for a faster response (vs phone calls). We give priority to VRBO Contact Forms and direct email. We are unable to return all of the calls received. We do, however, strive to respond to written inquiries as soon as possible. Thank you for understanding!

The quote provided is for the full property, and no more than 18 guests, unless otherwise specified.
A cove and covered dock is available to use for swimming, fishing, and sunbathing. Boaters may tie up to the dock with advanced notice. A public boat launch is located just across the main basin from us (you can see it from the property) at Mansfield Dam - it's about a 5 minute boat ride. The dock is shared with neighbors, so you may see others at the dock during your stay.
WEDDINGS AND EVENTS: Please note that, due to our setup, we are unable to participate in weddings or other events with more than 30 total guests. We also have chosen not to participate in bachelor parties of any sort. We welcome your out of town guests and family members of the bridal/groom's party to stay with us, and we will make every effort to ensure they have an extremely enjoyable stay in Austin! If you have a wedding or event, it must be pre-arranged with a minimum 3 night weekend stay, a contract, and an event fee. Please contact Rodney & Robin if interested.
Our preferred method of contact is the Request Form on VRBO or direct email. We have day jobs and receive too many calls to return in a timely manner. We have found that we can respond to you much more quickly via email.
