About this property

Canyon Star | Private Lake Home•Spacious Group Retreat•Grill

Welcome to Canyon Star, a bright, newly built modern farmhouse style lake house tucked away on 1.4 peaceful acres in the heart of the Texas Hill Country. This spacious entire house retreat offers privacy, quiet surroundings, and stunning views shaded by mature live oak trees—yet remains just a short drive from the best attractions in Canyon Lake. With its open floor design, modern amenities, and thoughtful layout, Canyon Star is perfect for large groups, family gatherings, and anyone looking to relax, reconnect, and enjoy the natural beauty of the hill country. The home sits in a prime location, only minutes from Canyon Lake Marina, the Guadalupe River, scenic trails, and local wineries, and less than an hour from San Antonio, making day trips simple and convenient.

Inside, Canyon Star feels warm, open, and welcoming. The main living area features an open floor layout with a spacious chef’s kitchen that includes quartz countertops, a gas stove, a large island, and high-end appliances—ideal for cooking, entertaining, and enjoying time together. The dining space seats eight comfortably, and the cozy living room centers around plush seating, a beautiful stone (decorative only) fireplace, and a large-screen smart TV, perfect for family movie nights or unwinding after a day on the lake. The home is equipped with high-speed WiFi, giving guests the modern conveniences they love while still offering a peaceful escape.

The home’s layout is ideal for privacy and comfort. The primary suite on the main level features a king-size bed, a private ensuite bathroom with dual sinks, and a walk-in shower. Another main-level bedroom offers a queen-size bed, while the two upstairs bedrooms include an additional queen bed in one and additional sleeping with two double beds in the other—giving your group plenty of space to spread out. With four bedrooms and three full bathrooms, the home comfortably sleeps up to eight guests.

Upstairs, you’ll find one of Canyon Star’s most beloved features: a spacious game room designed for family fun. This relaxing hangout includes a foosball table, lounge seating, another smart TV, and a private balcony overlooking the wooded hill country landscape. It’s the perfect spot for kids, teens, or late-night fun for the whole group.

The outdoor spaces at Canyon Star are every bit as inviting as the interiors. The home features a two-level deck and patioĀ and outdoor living area, shaded by mature live oaks and perfect for morning coffee, alfresco dining, grilling, or unwinding under the stars. Comfortable outdoor furniture and a large picnic table create the ideal setting for meals and gatherings in the fresh hill country air. The large, shaded backyard provides plenty of room for families to enjoy nature together. A quiet cove sits just behind the home; depending on the season and Canyon Lake water levels, you may catch glimpses of the lake through the trees.

And yes—dogs are welcome at Canyon Star.

Well-behaved pups under 50 lbs can relax and explore comfortably. We allow up to two dogs per stay unless otherwise approved by management.

The house was delightful and everything was clean and charming. The only complaints anyone had was the amount of fees involved in renting it.

Beautiful Home

This home was very clean and beautiful! The kitchen has everything that you could possibly need! If you like watching wildlife, make sure to go to the Brookshire grocery store and pick up some corn to feed the deer, then sit out in the beautiful balcony and enjoy! I will definitely keep this home as one of my favorites

Canyon Lake Family Getaway

We spent three nights at Joe’s Canyon Lake home and it couldn’t have been better. The house was very clean, from the kitchen to the beds/towels. The kitchen is one of the best-stocked we’ve seen: plenty of pots, pans, plates, bowls, silverware. The living-room TV setup kept everyone entertained in the evenings, and there was more than enough space for our group of six (four adults and two young girls).The location is ideal: less than 10 minutes to Potter’s Creek Park for lake access, but tucked away on a quiet street so we could relax without road noise. Communication with Joe was fast and friendly from booking all the way through checkout—he checked in just enough to make sure we had everything we needed without ever feeling intrusive.Overall, an excellent stay that exceeded expectations. We’d happily book here again!
