This is an unprecedented 10 acre estate on Lake Travis perfect for large groups, family reunions, intimate weddings, corporate retreats, and other gatherings.

Upon entering the property, guests will see an expansive lawn drawing you down to our private cove on Lake Travis where our guests will enjoy a large boat dock that can accommodate two boats and multiple jet skis / kayaks.

We also offer 2 complimentary guest parking passes to the nearby private parks/boat ramps if you’d like to launch your own boat/jet skis.
Behind the house there is a covered back porch that connects four of the five living spaces and has brand new dining tables and outdoor couches/lounge chairs for spectacular outdoor living!

***If you are bringing a boat, there is a boat ramp nearby. We will need the license plate, make and model for the allotted 2 vehicles allowed, and then we will send you the passes to access the boat ramp. We have to go through the city, so we need at least 3 weeks notice to ensure your passes arrive on time.
We have several primary rules:
1) We do not allow loud outdoor music after 10pm due to Lago Vista noise ordinance
2) Fireworks are not allowed per city ordinance.
3) Parking is not allowed on the street per city ordinance. There is parking behind the house and parking in the front circular driveway.
4) Groups that misrepresent the nature or size of their party will be asked to leave. We monitor exterior noise levels to ensure that your group complies with the rules.
Guests will have access to the entire 10 acres including the 4 main house living suites, the guest house, laundry room, pool, entire private cove on the lake, and the boat dock. We have parking for about ~25 cars between the circular drive in the front and in our back parking lot.
THE LOCATION
The property is right on the water with your own expansive lakefront yard, private cove and much more. Please be advised the water levels fluctuate on Lake Travis which can sometimes make accessing the dock more difficult temporarily. Our team works very hard to adjust the dock and its access each week to make it as safe/easy as possible to utilize. You'll have the comforts of home with a supply of paper products, toiletries, towels and linens.
We make it personal to stay with us! We’re available 24 hours a day to help. We follow local/state tax rules. Each reservation includes applicable taxes and cleaning fee.

Summary: The property is beautiful and big very spacious house. It was a little old, but still clean with a little wear and tear.. my issue the first night we could not get the house to warm up. It would only warm up to 67 when it’s an older house with a lot of draft.. I did try to call the property manager. They didn’t answer so we freeze all night because there was no blankets in the house with the exception of the very thin bed covers.The next day they did bring us a few heaters and I found out that they had controlled the heat and said it to max out at 67. They upped it and allowed me to have it up to 70 which again it was probably in the 30s and a lot of draft in the house so even 70 wasn’t keeping some of the spots warm..So I appreciated that they brought the heaters so I plugged in the heater in the master bedroom and then the circuit breaker goes off couldn’t find the circuit breaker to turn it back on. Tried all the plugs to see if I could turn it on there. nothing worked so again froze that night too.Very disappointing.

Summary: I cannot say enough good things about the estate! It was absolutely stunning and the perfect place for our wedding party to hang out and relax. Dillon and his team were super responsive whenever we reached out. Truly an 11/10 stay.

Summary: We spent our annual Thanksgiving family reunion week at the Estate on Lake Travis. It was a great week. We've been doing these reunions since 1991 and there were several comments that this was one of the best. The accommodations were great and allowed everyone to come together or spread out if needed. The pool and boat house fishing dock were a big hit. The morning and evening visits with the deer were enjoyed by all. Overall we enjoyed our visit and would definitely recommend the property. We are even discussing coming back next year as well.

Summary: Had a fantastic time at the house, it really had everything we needed. My only nit pick is to add some signs since there are so many doors that it's easy to get lost!

Summary: We recently had our first-ever family reunion in Austin, TX, and chose a beautiful VRBO property to accommodate our large group of over 30 family members. I’m thrilled to say that it exceeded all our expectations! The layout of the house was ideal for our diverse group. With ample space to spread out, everyone had their own little corner to relax and unwind. The adults particularly appreciated the expansive living areas where we could gather for meals, share stories, and enjoy each other’s company without feeling cramped. The pool was an absolute hit! The kids spent countless hours splashing around and playing games, while the adults enjoyed lounging by the water and soaking up the Texas sun. It was the perfect way to keep everyone entertained and cool during the hot afternoons. One of the highlights of our stay was the game quarters. This separate space was a fantastic spot for late-night fun after the elders had retired for the night. We played pool, ping-pong, and even had some intense card games that went on for hours. It provided a great atmosphere for bonding and creating lasting memories. The property itself was clean, well-maintained, and had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. The host was responsive and helpful, ensuring that we had everything we needed for a successful reunion. All in all, this VRBO in Austin was the perfect setting for our family gathering.

Summary: This property is amazing! There are several things to do. My family and I loved the location and the property. We had about 35 people ranging from different ages and everyone had a great time. No issues with sleeping and the kids has a blast in the game room. The host was easy to reach and accommodating.

Summary: The house was everything I expected and more. If I could give it 10 stars I would. Perfect place for large families. The icing on the cake was the BBQ Pit that I used on Sunday.

Summary: We hosted our annual company appreciation event here. As our company has grown, it has gotten harder and harder to find a venue that sleeps enough people and still has the amenities the families enjoy. This location was well suited to our needs. The kids always enjoy a pool. This location has a game room with ping pong, old fashion arcades, etc. that was well used. We also tuned in a pay per view fight in the game room and most of the team watched. We always try to do team building exercises as this is a company outing and the large back yard area worked well for what we needed. Yes, the lake is down so it is a hike to the water, but we still had employees go down there. Most just stayed up top and enjoyed the deer population that is abundant. All houses like this utilize a lot of bunk beds to get the "sleeps number" up... so you need to pay attention to who you bunk together. This place had mostly queen bunks which is so much nicer than the regular single bunks we've seen at other venues. And having 10 bedrooms was nice for privacy. We didn't have to use the sleeper sofas... but the murphy bed in the game room did come in handy. From the outside, the buildings are not impressive... but nice remodeling made the interiors very comfortable. Lago Vista's noise ordinance is an inconvenience when you have a large group, but there is enough indoor common area to allow people to socialize into the later hours. I believe everyone in our group enjoyed the space. Thanks.

Summary: The property is great for large family/work getaway. The property was described perfectly and was excellent. Lake levels are terrible right now but that is the only thing that we would have done better redearch on prior to coming using the water for relaxation. HIGHLY RECOMMEND this property.
