The Lower Colorado River Authority will lower Inks Lake for ~2 months (Oct-Nov) to provide property owners an opportunity to work on docks, boat slips and other shoreline structures. As a result, we have blocked those dates on our calendar. Please call or email with any questions.
Welcome to the home of the Seven Bass on Inks Lake.
In this spacious two story home located on a private, no wake cove in the exclusive Inks Lake Village. This secluded home resides in a gated community making it the perfect destination for a quiet family get away only ~50 minutes from Austin/Georgetown and surrounded by Inks Lake State Park, voted one of the best and most beautiful state parks in Texas.
The house features 40+ windows most of which face the lake, creating a tranquil setting for your family and guests. You’ll find multiple places to gather inside and outside, including a large, covered patio with a great view of the lake to enjoy the sunrise and your morning coffee.
Inside you’ll find the open floor plan provides comfortable living room, kitchen, dining room and laundry. Your kitchen features a thoughtful layout around the granite island with a broad range of cooking options and amenities. You can cook while watching the kids and entertaining your guests while enjoying a view of the lake. You're also welcome to use the Weber propane grill or wood burning BBQ smoker.
Wide concrete steps provide easy access to the water and boat dock on a private, no-wake cove ideal for swimming, fishing, canoeing, kayaking or floating peacefully on inner tubes with friends. The dock features plenty of space for sunbathing during the day or star gazing at night. With only one public boat ramp on the lake, boat or jet ski traffic is normally minimal.

And, keep an eye out for Texas Hill Country wildlife! You'll likely see ducks, Canadian geese, blue heron, turtles, white tail deer and possibly more during your stay.
Building upon the idea behind Hidden Mickey's at Disney World, there are seven wooden basses hidden in the house, all easily visible from the 1st floor. Someday when we think of one, there will be a grand prize for finding all seven. But for now, you'll just have to celebrate that accomplishment with your family and friends.
Last but not least, your safety is our highest priority! Our cleaning crew thoroughly cleans, disinfects our home, and all cleaning products are hospital-grade and EPA-approved. We have also stocked the house with additional cleaning products for you to use during your stay.
>> Frequently Asked Questions <<
Lake Level: Inks Lake is constant level year round, which means the lake level is carefully managed by the LCRA and varies only 2-3 inches of normal.
Parking: The driveway is steep and can be a minor challenge for the squeamish, but there is parking in front of the house for ~5 cars.
Pets: Your dog is welcome to join you. The yard isn't enclosed by a fence, leash laws are applicable here also, and there is an additional fee.
Boating: Your boat and/or jetski are welcome also. The dock features multiple tie downs. The roads in the village are narrow so we normally recommend boats <22 ft long and driving carefully through the neighborhood.
Damage waiver: The total cost of your reservation will include damage insurance which covers up to $1,500 of damage to the property.

Summary: My husband, three boys (ages 10, 8, and 4), my 5 year old niece and I spent a wonderful weekend on Inks Lake! We kayaked, fished and swam all day. The house is right on the water, the lake is at a constant level, and the house has so many rooms/beds for various sleeping options. We will definitely be back.

Summary: We were looking to get away from the hustle&bustle and spend time on/by the water. This home did just that - we love all the "vintage" pieces around the house that we got to explain to our kids. I loved sitting outside on the porch swing watching deers, birds, the view of the lake and castle was lovely. My family loved being able to walk out to the lake to go fishing and swimming. Nancy was accommodating and was easy to communicate with.

Summary: Outstanding lakehouse on the water. The driveway was a little tricky to back a boat into, but if you have the skills, not too crazy. Tons of room, and the boat dock was in a small cove right by the dam. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Summary: This is a gorgeous lake side property. We would definitely stay here again! We really enjoyed sitting on the covered porch and watching the wildlife (geese, herons, a couple of foxes and a sweet kitty who befriended us) and the lake. The house is well stocked with most everything you need. Recommend bringing bottled water and paper plates. The beds were comfortable. Two of the bedrooms are upstairs via a spiral staircase so beware if anyone in your group has mobility issues. Again, this is a very nice property!

Summary: Our family celebrates Christmas by spending a few days at a water front property. The Talbots home on Inks Lake was perfect with many custom touches, a large yard and beautiful view from all the rooms.Grandkids loved the boat on the wall, bunk beds, spiral staircase, “hideout” near the living room, and all the wildlife.

Summary: Wish we could have stayed longer. This was a great place for my family to connect after a while of being apart. Everyone had their own space and the water was great!! Thank you!

Summary: We all enjoyed our stay and loved the easy access to the lake. It was a great place for swimming and paddle boarding. We loved having the grass yard. I gave a 4star for cleanliness due to having to sweep up the back porch. But everything else was very comfortable and clean inside. We would come back again!
