About this property

Lake Brownwood Lakefront House, 1st Class, Pvt Dock,

Start your day with a cup of coffee on the patio overlooking the lake while the sun comes up. When other guests awaken, you can cook a nice breakfast in the fully furnished kitchen.

Grab a beach towel and head for the water. Jump in for a swim or take a boat ride. Go skiing, wake boarding or wake surfing. Then dry off on the sun deck above. Enjoy every minute because soon the day will be done.

But then its time to relax on the patio or inside the exquisitely furnished house with friends & family. You might want to watch a movie or tune into the sports channel. Pretty soon you'll be yawning, sleepy head! All three bedrooms have queen size beds with comfortable linens where you will rest comfortably after a fun-packed day on the lake.
There is plenty of carpeted space in the master bedroom for pallets for children. You may want to bring air mattresses for your extra comfort. Some extra sheets and blankets are stored in the closets. We have provided a portable crib for the baby.

The bathrooms are spacious and you have the option of tub or shower.

The back yard is great for sprinkler fun or toddler's swimming pool, or for just kicking a ball around or playing catch. Plenty of off-street parking in front.

The kitchen has a stand alone ice maker which will keep you well supplied with ice for the duration of your vacation. And of course, a full refrigerator, microwave & dishwasher. Outside cooking can be done on the Blackstone Griddle provided. Bacon and pancakes cooked outside never tasted better!

Please use your beach towels and keep our bathroom towels at the house. If you've forgotten a required life jacket, we will have a few on hand that you can borrow. But please remember to bring your own so you can be sure you have a proper fit and your safety is not at risk.

There are many fine restaurants in Brownwood (about 7 miles). One of our favorites is Underwoods BBQ Cafeteria. But you won't be disappointed by Humphrey Pete's Steak House, Section Hand Steak House, Lemons' Bar-B-Q, Schlotsky's, China King, Chili's, Prima Pasta, Wing Stop, McAlister's Deli, Cotton Patch, Jeff's Burgers, The Turtle Restaurant and many more. Corina's has fine Mexican food and is located on Hwy 279 in the lake area. Also, Wild Duck Marina is just about a mile from the house and they have a great grill and frequently have live entertainment.

The Hideout Golf Course is located at Lake Brownwood in the Feather Bay area just a few miles from the house. It is a well manicured 18 hole course, sure to suit your fancy! And The Hideout Restaurant is located there. Several times a year the historic Lyric Theater has a play. Often these are attractive for children. Brownwood has a movie theater as well as a large swim complex and bowling alley. Fancy's Day Spa would be happy to book a spa appointment for you.

If you are a fisherman, you will find this lake is excellent for fishing. You might want to enter the Bass Fishing Tournament they have each year.

Plenty of off-street parking. No RVs please.

You can't go wrong staying here. The host is awesome. This is our third stay for a week each time. The kitchen is stocked with everything you need to cook with. The whole house is spotless. Plenty of parking for your vehicle and boat trailers. Only 2 minutes to the boat ramp. Short trip to town.

Great property

The host was very communicative and had obviously put a lot of time and effort into setting up a clean and comfortable place to stay. I wish we could have spent more time there, but we were in town for a family reunion and were basically at the property only for sleep.

Lake retreat

One of the best lake houses I have rented. Well stocked kitchen and comfy beds. The dock was easily accessible from the lake and the backyard. Not a million steps. Neighborhood was quiet.

Gorgeous property with ALL the amenities!

We haven’t been to Lake Brownwood in years and my husband and I grew up going to this lake all the time! We were excited to share it with friends who had never been! The house is gorgeous and stocked with everything you need (and more) for a great stay! The dock was perfect for our group with boats and jet skis and located in a great area of the lake! We will definitely book here again!

Lake Brownwood House review

We enjoyed our stay at Lake Brownwood. The house is very nice and well stocked. We really liked the boat dock area for swimming and fishing. The water at the dock was 16ft deep and went to about 30ft in the middle of the channel. We caught a few bass, lots of perch, a one small catfish. This is a great place to stay and recommend it to everyone.

Easter Weekend

We stayed the weekend here for Easter weekend w/ 2 of our adult boys. It was a great time together fishing, laughing and eating together. Our youngest son is a student at HPU. We had a couple of his friends over on Saturday and cooked hamburgers and hung out on the dock. The house was really clean and has lots of space. The beds were really comfortable. The kitchen was fully equipped to cook big meals in. The yard and dock was clean and well kept. We will definitely stay here again. It’s located close to town.

Best Property & Host ever!!

There is not one negative thing about this property or the owner Vivian! She is definitely a Super Host! Everything you need is there and more. The ice machine was such a plus and the Black Stone grill made everything perfect. The dock is wonderful and the kids loved jumping from the diving board. Fishing is good and where the property is located it is usually so calm and not rough at all (with the exception of boats coming by) it is great. We have stayed here many times and will stay even more. Thank you Vivian for your generosity and such a beautiful home. Thrash, Johnson and Ferguson Family

We’ve stayed multiple times at this house, we have a wonderful time every time! We love the location on the lake, the house is great, the back and porch and lawn are very nice! The stairs down to the dock are a bit scary to navigate if you have small kiddos with, just something to keep in mind!Vivianne has always been a wonderful host!

About the host

Hosted by Vivian Auldridge

Host profile image
I am a widow, mother to 5 children & 16 grandchildren. My husband and I opened a lumber retail business in Goldthwaite, TX in 1976. He passed away in 2003 and I continued the business until 2013 when I sold it to Higginbotham Brothers. I am now retired. My family loves boating and swimming; just being at this place on the lake. My hope is that you will have the same great experiences here that we have had. Please come and have a great time!

Why they chose this property

My husband and I built this house in 2000. At that time we still had two children in college. Brownwood Lake is a beautiful, large and deep lake just 45 minutes from our home.

What makes this property unique

A favorite thing for the adults is to sit on the patio in the mornings and gaze out over the lake with coffee. Later we walk down to the dock and the kids swim & jump off the diving board before we get out in the boat and tube, ski, or wake surf. Nothing could be better than this!

Premier Host

They consistently provide great experiences for their guests
