Lake Travis Water Front Apartment with Boat Launch
BEAUTIFUL location and home!!! Extremely picturesque, feels secluded and private, the bathroom is gorgeous, all the amenities are perfect and George and Kim were amazing hosts, went above and beyond to make sure we were extremely comfortable and had a great vacation.

La Lucia at Messina Inn
Great location and charming site. This looks like an ideal spot to book a wedding or family reunion.

2BD Luxury Condo | Water Views | Pool | Rainey St
We loved our time here! The pool was so nice and so was the apartment. The view was gorgeous. It was also very walkable. 10/10 recommend!

Pets Stay Free at the Lake, Walk to Eats Sauna Spa
We loved our stay at Kenieshiear's place! She was so responsive, and the place was as advertised. We had an issue with the noise of other neighbors outside of the quiet hours, and after we mentioned it to Kenieshiear, she made sure she would solve any issues in the future. Overall we had a wonderful stay, and all of us (including our pup) felt right at home :)

Spectacular Lakefront View Condo
Excellent place. Enjoyed every moment. Host is very responsive and makes sure you are comfortable. If I come back to the area will definitely book again.

Domain Life - Best shopping, restaurants, & bars
We loved the apartment! The great location, super clean apartment, tasteful decoration, this apartment had everything we needed. I especially appreciated how clean the place was. Since it is located in the shopping areas, it can get noisy at night but earplugs were provided and we had no issues with sleeping. My kids slept in the second bedroom which was away from the street and they said it was super quiet. We stayed here for MOTOGP at COTA. Since this place is right off the highway, it was only 45 minutes away from the track. Maybe even shorter with toll roads. MO was very responsive with communication and super helpful. Easy check in and check out. Everything worked and was easy to operate. 100% recommended.

Incredible View Of Downtown | Walk To Rainey St.
We enjoyed this Airbnb so much, we will be back. It was a beautiful view, it rained one of the days we stayed and even still the view from the balcony and living room area was amazing. Thank you guys for hosting and doing a wonderful job at it!

Lake Travis /Austin/Apt 1B1B lake access property
What a great location and beautiful yard!
Waterfront house rentals

Hill Country Waterfront Lake Travis House
Wish we could've stayed longer! The area is located in the middle of so many things that would be great to do wine tasting, whiskey places, restaurants, bars, attractions. If you do your research before arriving you'll have a list of things to do. Nonetheless, if evem if you don't, and you decide to stay at the house its feels secluded enough and spacious enough that that youre not crammed. The kitchen has so many cooking utensils and pots/pans that it felt like a home away from home. The grill was such a plus and with a full propane tank! Lastly, the dock offered so much space that if needed you could dip and sunbathe all you want. I will be back!

Waterfront Estate-7BR,boat dock, Kayaks, 6000sqft
Our family of 10 enjoyed this Lake House home. It is perfect for families. It was spacious, clean and well appointed. The kitchen had everything we needed. There was a nice separation of bedrooms on the upper level for the adults allowing our teenage kids to have the lower level bedrooms, but there were also bedrooms laid out to accommodate parents and children of younger ages on the lower level. We especially enjoyed the game room with table tennis, foosball and darts. The home has a flat, grassy back yard and we were easily able to set up a volleyball net and play soccer. The friendly deer emerged in the evenings and mornings and were a delight. The owner, Matt, was a very responsive host and answered our questions promptly. We were prepared for lower lake levels given the drought at Lake Travis, so note that the hike down to the water and the dock is steep and rocky given the current conditions.

Secluded Lake Travis retreat in Serene Cove w/pool
Siren's Cove was a great weekend getaway! It had everything we were looking for in such a beautiful location. The host was easy to get ahold of and was always quick to respond to any questions/concerns we had. I would highly recommend this place for anybody that's looking for a great/quiet weekend trip!

Boat Dock Road House
House was really nice and everyone had plenty of room. View from the backyard was amazing. Short walk down to the lake and boat dock. Being able to use the kayaks and paddle boards was a huge bonus.

The Lake Shack on Lake Travis
The Lake Shack was such a wonderful experience. The deck was amazing, so much room and so peaceful. Great communication with Jennelle. Will stay again!

Lake Travis,Waterfront,Amazing Views,Decks
Teresa was great! Was so helpful in helping us. The house was beautiful and comfortable. Will definitely be staying here again!

Lakefront on Lake Travis•Hot Tub•Lakeside Parks
My friend and i loved our weekend get away here from the big city. Very quiet and private with a beautiful view. Lots of outdoor spaces to relax and watch wildlife. Would absolutely book here again!!

LakeTravis Waterfront Volleyball Game Rooms Boats
We stayed at Jacob’s place for a bachelor party and the house was perfectly set up for that! Jacob was incredibly communicative and had everything needed to enjoy and host a bachelor trip which I appreciated as it made my job a whole lot easier. Some highlights: -Beer dice set up -a Lake with boating service that Jacob runs. ATX Boat service. It was very worth it if you have a big group and everyone chips in. I appreciated Jacob’s proactive communication, he’s super quick to follow up and made planning things easy. He was flexible with allowing us to stay a bit late so we could go straight to the airport.

Downtown Retreat w/ Pool Access | Mins to DTN
Highly recommend. Great location it’s easy to everyone we had visited. Nice area too we always feel safe at home

Villa 3113 - 2 Bed / 2 Bath - All Amenities
We had a wonderful stay at The Island on Lake Travis! The condo was clean, spacious, and beautifully located—it felt like the perfect peaceful escape. The entire area was calm and relaxing, and we even spotted a couple of deer nearby, which made the experience feel even more special. The check-in process was incredibly easy. Cam provided all the instructions ahead of time, which made everything smooth and stress-free from the start. We also really enjoyed the on-site restaurant—the food was fresh and flavorful, and the service was great. Overall, a great experience. We’d definitely come back!

Peaceful getaway -Island of Lake Travis-Bella Lago
Our family of four absolutely loved our stay! The location is private and peaceful, and while it’s a bit far from Austin and all there is to do downtown, it was the perfect escape for our Spring Break weekend. The condo was cozy, with plenty of games and activities. We enjoyed our time on the patio, played pickleball, spent a lot of time in the hot tub and pool (or reading by the pool at sunset with the most incredible view), and my animal whisperer son got to feed and interact with the deer on site- a real highlight for him! Thank you, Cheri for a wonderful stay! We hope to be back one day!

Splendid Lake Travis Island Condo
The place was absolutely beautiful and felt just like home. The view was incredible, the pool was clean, and there were plenty of services and amenities nearby. I’d definitely recommend it for a relaxing weekend getaway or a mini vacation!

Waterfront Condo on Lady Bird Lake
My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed our short stay at David's home. The unit is exactly as advertised, and the proximity to the trail and river is even better than the photos show. We look forward to visiting Austin again and staying at David's home.

Ultimate Lake Travis Fishing condo w/ pool&hot tub
Exactly as pictured. Host was very responsive. There was an initial rebooking and she proactively found us a comparable and pleasant alternative. The area is great. As we were advised to do, I recommend buying all your groceries in Austin or along the way before you arrive. The property itself is spacious, comfortable and spotless. The deck is amazing. We grilled outside three out of four night. Really enjoyed ourselves.

Amazing view - Lake Travis Condo on Private Island
Scott and Angie have a beautiful place. It was very clean and had everything you needed. It was exactly what we expected and we had a wonderful time.

'Lakeside Haven'- Hot Tub, Pool, Lake view!
We loved our stay. Seeing the deer every day was amazing. The condo was clean, has all of your essentials and so much to do around. They were so responsive every time we had a question. We hope to be back!
