Fun Nautical-Themed Home in Canyon Lake

We are brand new in Canyon Lake and are available for you and your group, including up to two of your four-legged furry dogs for an additional fee. Our luxury home is the ideal spot to make some memories! A private gym and game room that open out to a swimming pool, hot tub, entertainment area, and fire pit will make you say “wow” the minute you arrive. With five bedrooms plus additional sleeping accommodations and a cozy reading nook, our beautiful home is the perfect place for you and your guests.

The space
Ahh, the fresh air and lake views! Come and enjoy the serenity of Canyon Lake, known as The Jewel of The Texas Hill Country, with over 80 miles of shoreline and sunshine. For lake lovers everywhere, this home is the perfect property for multi-family vacations, family reunions, corporate retreats, college reunions, or simply to gather with friends and loved ones.
Your nautical adventure starts right at the gate, with fun, whimsical décor to welcome you to lakeside living. The expansive windows offer unobstructed lake views, and the home design provides an easy and comfortable stay for many guests.
Special Features that will make you say “WOW!”
• Gorgeous views of the lake and stunning sunrises
• A 35’ x 16’ pool with an integrated hot tub, swim lane and tanning shelf
• Stand alone renovated building with a complete gym, ping pong table and electronic dartboard with heating and cooling (shuffleboard to come in next week or so)
• Large open kitchen area perfect for the family or group chef
• Incredible attention to detail in all areas of the home
• Entertainment for everyone!

Living Spaces
Welcome home! Vaulted ceilings and enormous windows provide a bright and airy space, while soothing neutral tones and hints of lakeside blue beckon you to kick off your shoes and relax on the plush sectional sofa. With an afternoon charcuterie board and a glass of your favorite beverage, it's the perfect spot to catch up on the day's adventures with your friends and family. In the evenings, pop a big bowl of popcorn and gather around the Smart TV to bring everyone together for movie night. For those that love to curl up with a good book, or spend time in meditation and journaling, the reading nook is a cozy private hideaway, with a comfortable futon couch that converts into a twin bed for stretching out. Choose from the bookshelf selection or bring your own book or Kindle, and escape into the pages. The game room is a particular family favorite when you’re not out enjoying the lake and surrounding water features. Just imagine a ping-pong tournament with games of shuffleboard and darts for those waiting their turn.

Kitchen & Dining
The heart of the home is the kitchen, and this one is fully equipped with stainless steel appliances, cookware, and utensils. Take advantage of it all to cook up a Texas-style barbeque buffet for the whole group. There’s plenty of cabinet space for all your groceries and favorite treats....and the cabinets are all marked to identify where everything is. Pancake griddle and waffle iron are also included.
While you’re baking up a batch of fresh cookies, others can sit at the kitchen island and enjoy a cool drink and conversation. A tiled backsplash, spacious counters, and pendant lighting will make every inner-chef want to help with meal preparation!
And when the weather is cool, fire up the floor-to-ceiling rock woodburning fireplace for a warm atmosphere and intimate ambiance. The farmhouse table in the room is perfect for a wonderful meal and after-dinner conversation.
Can’t you just imagine the smells coming from this fully-equipped kitchen? Whether you’re grabbing your morning cup of coffee, prepping hot dogs and burgers for the grill, or cooking up a complete holiday feast, this chef’s kitchen is sure to be the most visited room in the house!

Bedrooms & Baths
The 15’x15’ primary suite is on the main level, featuring a king bed with premium bedding and extra lush pillows with an ensuite primary bathroom. A spa-like jetted tub, separate shower, and copper sink vanity will pamper your body and soul. A Smart TV, walk-in closet, and luxurious linens throughout will provide comfort and privacy. The private balcony offers views of the morning sunrise to enjoy with a steaming cup of coffee in hand. Plush blue leather recliners nestled in by the light-filled bay window give you a place to relax and read or to catch up on your favorite podcast.
The second bedroom is 14’x14’ located on the main level with a queen bed, large closet, Smart TV, and comfortable orange leather recliner. This room shares a hall bath with the third bedroom, also 14’x14’, with three twin beds, each with its own personal reading lamp for bedtime stories and another Smart TV. Just think...it’ll be a weekend-long slumber party!
Upstairs you’ll find the fourth bedroom...an enormous 20’x16.5’ king bedroom ensuite with luxurious shower, double sinks, Smart TV, comfy leather recliner, private balcony and walk-in closet. For those with little ones, this suite is ideal, as it features a recliner and baby crib. There’s even enough room for a queen air mattress, which is conveniently tucked away in the closet.
Bedroom five has twin bunk beds in a 12’x10’ room with a large closet and shares a bath with the fourth bedroom, although with a separate entrance.

And don’t forget! The reading nook has a twin futon for an additional guest if needed.

On the lowest level, you’ll find a bathroom with shower and vanity, convenient for when the family is playing in the pool or outdoor activities like grilling or finding out who will be the next corn-hole champion!

Overlooking the 35’x16’ blue-bottom pool, the Adirondack chairs offer a great place to kick back and watch the kids, or enjoy a glass of wine as the sun begins to set. Dining al fresco continues from day into evening, with grilling up family-style meals for everyone to enjoy at the end of a fun-filled day.
After the kids go to bed, the adults will enjoy evenings in the hot tub or gathering around the fire pit.

2. No smoking inside the home and no illegal substances on property.
3. Please do not change the locks or move any furniture.
4. We appreciate you keeping all food & drink in the kitchen and common areas; no food or drink in the bedrooms please.
5. Please be respectful of our towels, sheets, and other linens. We provide specific washcloths for the convenience of removing makeup.
6. Children under the age of 16 need adult supervision in the gym and game room.
7. Please check out on time, as our cleaning staff needs time to prepare for our next guests.

POOL/HOT TUB RULES:
1. The hot tub can be heated and used at any time during the year at no additional cost. Please text or call me about 45 minutes prior to wanting to use the hot tub and we will turn it on remotely. It will automatically shut off after four hours. If you find that you aren't using the hot tub for four hours, please text me and we will turn it off remotely. In addition, if you want to use it for longer than four hours, just text me and we will turn it back on.
2. Because of the size of the pool and the potential low temperatures during the months of November, December, January and February, it is very, very expensive to heat the pool. We CAN heat the pool during those months, but it would cost you an additional $200/day to heat.
3. If heating is required to reach a comfortable swim temperature during the early or late swim season, it would cost you an additional $100/day to heat. FYI, normally it would be unlikely you would need to heat the pool from mid-May thru mid-September.

Thank you for adhering to our house rules, so that we can maintain the quality of our home for our future guests.

One to Remember!!
What a beautiful house! The pictures on VRBO do not do it justice. It was very clean, beautifully decorated, very spacious and comfortable! We were blown away by how well stocked and organized the kitchen is… Loved all the labels on the cabinets! For a long time, I’ve dreamed of getting a big group of friends together at a lake house, where we can sit around a fire pit, drink wine, cook together and play games. This house was absolutely perfect for it and we all want to come back every year! My husband and I were celebrating our 16-yr anniversary. We all made some really great memories. Thank you, Vickie!

Spectacular home and property!!
As spectacular as the photos on the VRBO website of this house and property are, they pale in comparison to how truly spectacular they are in person! From the moment we drove up to the property and the home, my entire family were all blown away. Everything was just perfect...clean, spacious, comfortable, well stocked, inviting... we lacked for nothing. The hosts really went out of their way to make sure we were well taken care of for the entire 8 days we were there. We especially loved the pool and hot tub and the space around them... bathroom and refrigerator downstairs so we didn't have to run through the house, plenty of swim towels provided. My husband loved the weight room and we all enjoyed the ping-pong. Kitchen incredibly well organized, plenty of towels in the bathrooms (and hooks to hang up wet towels,I love that), comfortable beds, no problem with water pressure or temperature, great chairs to rock in on the front porch....I could go on and on. It was really a very nice, relaxing vacation due in large part to the home, property and the hosts. I definitely recommend this property 100%. Thank you for allowing us to stay at your beautiful home

Beautiful home; thoughtful owner
We were very pleased with the house and property and enjoyed our stay. We were particularly impressed by the thoughtfulness of the owner -- small things such as labelling all the cabinets and light switches made it easy to find our way around, and the owner was very responsive and friendly whenever we contacted her. The game room and pool gave the kids lots to do, especially in the heat of summer. And the grandparents could overlook the pool from the bay windows in the main floor master bedroom when they preferred to say in the AC. The house was well-stocked with what we needed (plenty of towels, cooking equipment, etc).

Family Memories
Vickie, thank you for sharing your Canyon Lake home with us. The house was perfect for our family vacation (7 adults and 4 children). The pool, shaded cover, and game area were a perfect way to escape from the Texas heat during the day. Our grandchildren enjoyed going on walks around the property and seeing the mama deer and their babies in the mornings and evenings. The fire pit was great way to end the day with evening smores (Vickie even had roasting sticks for the marshmallows). The host has included everything you need to make your stay enjoyable. The labels and signage make everything so easy to find and access. We stopped at the HEB in Wimberley the first evening and cooked all our meals at the house. The kitchen was well stocked and had everything we needed for our meals. The guys even used the outdoor grill a couple of times. I highly recommend renting a boat during your stay. We enjoyed seeing Canyon Lake and cooling off in the water. Most of all we enjoyed making new memories as a family!
