About the host
Hosted by Jill Johnson
My family and I moved to Texas 14 years ago and fell in love with Spicewood. It is a unique area with so much natural beauty and the people here are THE best! Lake Travis and Pace Bend Park are so close and my boys LOVE to fish. The rolling hills and great hiking and biking trails keep my family busy. My family consists of myself, my husband, 2 sons, and our 2 furry canine kids.. Tank and Crystal.
Why they chose this property
My husband and I fell in love with this adorable Lake House and purchased it in 2014. We improved and updated the home for long term renters to enjoy, but quickly decided to offer it as a short term rental since it is so close to the Lake and our friends all agreed that it is the perfect getaway!. We have used VRBO for our personal vacations and love it. We hope that you enjoy "The Best Little LAKE House in Texas" as much as we do!
What makes this property unique
This Lake View Home has 2 private decks to enjoy amazing lake views and gorgeous sunsets. It offers 3 levels with the master bedroom on the top level. It has its own private deck with lake travis views. This home is a pier and beam style so lots of room under the house for storage or a jet ski/boat parking etc. The kitchen is large with stainless steel appliances and a double oven to cook for a large family. The area is very quiet and suitable for families with a park and playground minutes away. Briarcliff has it all...a marina to rent boats or launch your own...Willie Nelsons golf course..Pace Bend Park for fishing, hiking, floating/biking etc. and plenty of restaurants and bars to keep everyone entertained! You are only 35 minutes from Austin if you want to explore!
