Great Time.

We enjoyed our stay here, enough room for everyone, swimming, kayaking, boating, and fishing in the day and card games at night. Perfect for our group of mixed ages. Kitchen setup worked great for feeding 14 people. Hosts were awesome to work with. We appreciated their quick responses when we had questions. We would stay here again!!

Our family really enjoyed our stay! Location on the water was perfect. Nice hill down to the water that the kids enjoyed playing on. The fishing was great. Lots of swimming and kayaking as well. The beds in the bedrooms were very comfortable and we all slept great. The bunk room, could use a little fixing on the bunks but luckily kids sleep hard at times lol. Overall really great experience. Recommend the stay here!

Wonderful place for big family get together. Hope to stay here again

So many great things about this home - AC was Top Notch, as were all of the sleeping arrangements. We were curious about the "porch bedroom", but one young couple grabbed it and loved the privacy, so don't worry about that room. Yard was beautiful, no stickers. Owners and managers are so wonderful to work with - don't hesitate - grab this property!

Senior Vacation 2023

8 friends stayed at this wonderful lakefront home on our recent trip to Fredricksburg to visit various wineries. The home was perfect! We had plenty of room for all of us with room to spare, grilling out and watching the sunset off the dock while splashing around in the water, sleeping in comfortable beds, sitting out on the screened in porch drinking our morning coffee, what more could you ask for? Communication with the Host was quick and easy and they made sure our stay was a wonderful experience. All eight of us were extremely pleased, and absolutely loved our stay at the lake house!!!

Perfect, Relaxing, Family Focused

The whole process from start to finish was effortless. Fantastic hosts! Very quick to respond to any questions or needs that we had. The property is absolutely perfect for family gatherings, and really does cater to family groups. We’ve never experienced a property this “kid friendly “ before and it made our stay that much more enjoyable! Beautiful home, large tree shaded yard, waterfront with a large dock to gather on and fish from, perfect area to cool off in the water. Comfy beds, plenty of towels, dishes,etc. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and cannot wait to return!

Had a great visit!

We had a great time at this lake house. I went with my husband, adult children and dog. Having 3 king beds in one house is rare and much appreciated!! the small front fenced yard was wonderful for our dog. We enjoyed the screened in porch so much for coffee every morning and had a great time on the back dock. We arrived to some goose poop on the dock and the caretaker was right on it early the next morning cleaning it off. The owners were very responsive. Thanks for a great weekend!

Family summer vacay

The house was fantastic! There were 10 adults and we had plenty of room. 4 bedrooms and a bunk room with by lots of beds. Three full baths. Beds were comfortable, plenty of towels, everything you need in the kitchen. The dock has plenty of seating and we had lots of fun on the water trampoline. We rented a boat and jet ski and had them delivered. There is an HEB nearby and a great hamburger place with fantastic margaritas! There is a nice winery with pretty good wine 5 minutes away. The whole family had a great time. We would definitely recommend it.

Perfect weekend getaway

The house has everything you need to come to the lake and stay. I did bring my own Keurig because they only have a coffee pot, don’t worry they are stocked with filters if that is what you prefer. Don’t bother packing beach towels they have more than enough for your group. The beds are comfortable and the lower bunk room was perfect for the teens. I would recommend this rental to friends. Great communication with Melissa. The screened in porch was a big hit for morning coffee and evening wine and games.

I hope to stay here again!

Everything was perfect. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves. The close proximity to the water’s edge was the best. The beds beds were comfortable. Then when we discovered that the porch was screened in, we were so excited to not have to deal with Texas mosquitoes. The only disappointment was that we did not have more time at the lake. Perhaps a second refrigerator would be helpful, especially in the summer time.

Family vacay 2019

Our family had a wonderful time enjoying the lake life at this great home. Room for our whole family of 8 adults and 5 kiddos ranging from age 1 to 4. The swimming area was great. The steps made it super easy to walk into the water which had a nice sandy bottom and good shallow depth. The kids loved jumping off the huge water trampoline. The boat dock was amazing and had the right spot to dock our pontoon boat. The screened in porch was a great place for toddlers to play in the mornings and evenings. We would definitely love to rent this place again.
