Great gathering place with Nolan Creek access

Our family of 21, including 11 children had a great time at this property. Bedrooms are spread out to accommodate lots of sleeping schedules, including napping babies. The house is near Nolan Creek, just a short walk down the hill to wade in and enjoy the cool water. There is also a lovely deck overlooking the creek, but we didn’t have much time to relax on it with our large group of kids ( ages 12 years down to 12 months ) who wanted to stay in the water! The host provides kayaks and a paddle boat and life jackets, which we enjoyed up and down the creek. A short way downstream is a low waterfall that is super fun for tubing -even our 3 and 4 year olds loved it. We were fortunate with the water level- it was just right for enjoying the creek safely. If you go, be mindful that rain or drought can change the creek status dramatically. We all enjoyed the unique style of the house, including the roomy A-frame kitchen and spiral stairs to the upstairs bedrooms. We used both extra cabins as well. The one with 4 bunk beds also served as an extra space for playing inside. The other cabin has a comfortable queen bed, and a full shower bath. We did bring our own folding tables and chairs for meals, as there are only two small tables and chairs for dining options. The host is very responsive to questions and I enjoyed working with her. Overall, I can highly recommend this property for families and groups of all kinds.

Not really a pool and why all the cameras

If you are looking for a place with a pool to swim and play in, there isn’t one here. There is a very large hot tub but no pool. The grounds are beautiful but there is a lot of poison oak/ivy. There are several kayaks, which we did enjoy but water access is difficult and getting the kayaks up & down is hard. We couldn’t use the paddle boat because it was filthy. The house was very clean but the bathrooms were a bit creepy and only 1 small shower. The checkout list that you are sent is excessive, I’m not even sure why I was charged a cleaning fee considering I had to take the trash to the street, wash all dishes, strip the beds, start the laundry, shock the hot tub, and turn off A/Cs in parts of the property that we didn’t even use. The location is private but there are several cameras on the outside of the property which made us a bit uncomfortable, feeling like we were being watched and wondering if there were cameras inside. We have stayed at several VRBOs and this is the only one that we would not visit again and this one was the most expensive (overpriced).

Accommodating n Fun

Beautiful large property with a lot to do. The # of available beds offered was confusing but there is 2 sets of bunk beds in a small cabin outside, one behind the other. There are 2 restrooms inside, only 1 having a shower and the other with a bathtub. There is 1 more full restroom outside in a small studio with a full bed off the deck. There's a loft upstairs the main house w a full bed another bedroom with 4 twins. Downstairs there is a bedroom with a queen and set of bunkbeds, and another w 1 full and twin. The place needs some tlc but I would stay here again and recommend it.

About the host

Hosted by Lisa Van Allen

We are a family of 6. Our two kids in the middle have genetic syndromes and all four of our kids are very special to us. We've lived abroad, done nonprofit work, and now live back in the Austin area where we were both raised. We love this Belton property as a place to let our kids live away from wifi and cable and to share with our friends and guests.

Why they chose this property

This property is a one of a kind. Nolan Creek is a stunning escape from the urban sprawl and there are only a handful of houses that provide water access (and probably only this one vacation rental!). We are just a few miles from Belton, the Bell County Expo Center, and Salado, Texas. If you want to go into Austin or Waco you are less than an hour from either one!

What makes this property unique

Does the other property you are looking at have a paddle boat and kayaks and a disc golf corse?? I didn't think so! Explore the 5 acres of land around the totally unique 2 story A frame house. The land that stretches north and west of the property is an old ranch that gives you miles of buffer between yourself and other homes in those directions.
