This is a great house for a family getaway to Canyon Lake. While the house may look compact outside, it is very spacious inside with great simple layout, very nice cozy/modern accommodations, all basics and some extras provided. The house was very clean. We really enjoyed our short eclipse trip stay here as a family of 5 ( two parents, grandmother, and two kids). The neighborhood is nice and quiet, and although this was less secluded than our usual choices (which we tend to pick on a very secluded side), it really didn't feel busy - in fact it was very peaceful. You can see a little bit of the lake from the patio, there are good night skies off the patio for stargazing, and it is a pleasant neighborhood to walk through, including a short walk to the boat ramp. The location is very convenient for local parks and stores. And last but not least, the host - Dana - was very responsive! We highly recommend this place.
