Gorgeous property

The pool, deck and view are incredible. We had a wonderful, relaxing stay. The kitchen had everything we needed. Everything was very clean. The beds are comfy but all the pillows are huge, lol. If you prefer a smaller/less dense pillow, I'd recommend packing one. There are grocery & liquor stores a short drive down the road. The street is very quiet. The communication was on point. We really have zero complaints & wouldn't hesitate to return. We even got a very cool lightning show the 1st night we arrived. The grounds are rusticly beautiful, simply gorgeous for pictures.

Loved the house, beautiful view, pool was warm and clean. Saw some foxes and deer right outside the property. Would definitely recommend staying! Only complaint were the showers were hard to control temp, which wasn’t a big deal for us. Thanks for a beautiful week!

We stayed for three nights at this amazing house and I wish I would have booked for more days. The house is as pictured the view is amazing from the pool area and the location of the house is convenient to the local grocery store For all your cooking needs if needed We took some of our own cooking utensils thinking the kitchen would not have it and to our surprise the kitchen had everything we needed to cook all our meals We enjoyed driving around the neighborhood in the evenings and seeing the hundreds of dears crossing the streets and in peoples yards The host was quick to answer any inquiries we had After checking in I would definitely be booking next year at this same property

Not as advertised

This place needs major maintenance. It looks nothing like the pictures. The grass was overgrown, every lounger by the pool had large holes in them, half of the string lights were out, multiple blinds inside were broken, holes in the bathroom walls. Musty smell when we walked in. Really wished I had brought a candle. I sent pictures to the management company with no response. We had no hot water for the majority of our stay. The plumber finally fixed the issue less than 24 hours before we left. We will definitely never stay here again

Not Exactly As Advertised

While the property was spacious, it lacks any interior updates. Old linens, strange layout of bedrooms, full garbage cans outside, and a pool that was relatively dirty was not up to the expectations of what was pictured. No soap, skimpy shampoo travel bottles (no conditioner), one roll of paper towels, and no napkins?? For what we paid, it would have been nice to not be so cheap when it comes to basic necessities. Having to go to the grocery store just for basic toiletries was not our typical VRBO experience. They did accommodate a mistake in our dates of stay, but it cost an arm and leg for a less than desirable property. Could use some serious updates. Pictures are not an accurate depiction. Beware.

Sorry, but we are very disappointed with our experience. The main goal of our trip was to be able to get into the swimming pool.

We would love to give a better review, but frankly, we were very disappointed. The sole purpose of our getaway was to enjoy the swimming pool. The day we arrived the pool looked very murky and there was debris on the bottom of the pool. We’ve been told that the pool is maintained on Mondays but it didn’t look like it. So we waited till the next day and then a pool man showed up and said that he had to shock the pool and that we’d be unable to use it for 6 to 12 hours. Second day lost for swimming. the final day the water was still cloudy from the treatment so we didn’t venture in. After my stroke and several back surgeries, the only time I feel relief is when I’m in the water. So it was doubly disappointing. The view was nice. the home is fine, except it really could use some TLC. we generally give glowing reviews of the properties where we stay, but I just can’t this time. I wish I could.

This is a sweet little house that can pack a lot of people in it. The layout is a bit unconventional, but happened to work well for us. The deck and pool is so nice - beautiful shade trees and an incredible view, with space for a lot of people. The high points were clean, but it was clear that no one has gotten in the corners in a long time. The walls, baseboards and corners were, quite frankly, disgusting, thick with stains, dust, dirt and grime.

10/10 recommend!! The house was amazing and beautiful but most importantly clean! The house does sleep 8. The beds look small in the photos given but they are actually a great size and they're pullout mattresses underneath as well. Me and my friends enjoyed our stay and loved seeing the bucks and deers in the morning. The view was great as well.

Overall the stay here was great. Communication to begin with was strange, needing to verify our identity a number of time but once that was done we had all the information we needed up front. The house was more run down than anticipated. Clearly a rental. Lawn was not cut, they told us someone was coming to clean the pool but never did. Canopy fabric was ripped and flopping all over. Pool floaties were thrown on the patio in a pile. The pool jets turned off at night and could not figure out how to turn the pool lights on. The driveway is STEEP! We were asked to bring down the garbage which would have been very difficult so we kept it up top. Nothing overly bad by any means and the view makes up for most things. Easy check out process.

Great location and overall very nice. I do wish the grill was a propane grill not a charcoal smoker/grill. Also as we had just had a lot of rain and flooding in TX so the house could have benefitted from someone making a visit the day before. There were some slight cleanliness things that come with a closed house and a lot of rain. I do wish the listing had said something about the noise restrictions rather than waiting until the check in information to provide that information. Overall very pleasant, well decorated, easy check in/out and convenient to the location.

Perfect Getaway with an Amazing View

The house on the outside didn’t seem like much but once we stepped inside, we were amazed at how modern the flooring and decor was. The house was also very clean and we had folded towels for us on each bed. The cooking items are a little light (not many pots and pans to choose from) but we made it work. The pool and back patio area were the absolute best part. It was so nice to relax on a float and watch the sunset. The only thing I would recommend to the property owner is additional lighting for the driveway. It is VERY dark at night and the driveway is VERY steep. Overall, we had a great stay and can’t wait to go back.

Seclusion

We are a family of introverts who love nature and quiet. As a native Texan who lived in Austin area until 16 years ago, we found the over development on the other side of the lake a no go. This house was perfect for us. If you are disabled, it is a no go unless you use a cane and are very careful as the deck is not safe. Other than that a few cleanliness issues, we loved it and would recommend if there is a need for seclusion.

A TREAT!

The overall stay was fantastic, we absolutely loved the patio and got full use of the pool. Also, the view cannot fully be captured in photos. If you’re here reading this review, there’s no reason to go any further. The space was enough for the 6 people we had plus there were trundles and could have slept more. We enjoyed the cleanliness of the entire space, we usually go to places and have to clean but not at this spot. Highly recommended, we will be back to this house with a view. Thank you!!

A home away from home

We wanted a relaxing spring break to enjoy with our kids. We found this house, and what convinced us was the pool with that view. This house did not disappoint. The house has a great outdoor space and the neighborhood is very quiet. This house is equipped with what you need to have a great time. Plenty of room inside for everyone and has a great layout for you to enjoy the view from inside the home or outside. My kids enjoyed the pool so much, and we really liked the privacy of this home. We will definitely consider coming back.
