Unwind and revel in the serene comfort of our spacious lakehouse, uniquely positioned to offer the best of both worlds: a peaceful riverside escape and proximity to the buzzing Austin scene. Here, relaxation meets adventure, making it the perfect getaway for groups and families.

Nestled on a private property, our haven boasts direct access to the tranquil Colorado River, setting the scene for an array of fun-filled activities. Fancy kayaking under a radiant Texas sun? Or perhaps fishing by the riverbank or taking a refreshing swim is more your style? With lawn games and ample space to roam, every day brings a new adventure. As dusk approaches, gather around the fire pit, share stories, or simply kick back on the deck, soaking in those iconic riverside views.

Step inside to discover a design that captures the essence of a quintessential lakehouse. Our vast living room, featuring a large smart TV, is the perfect hub for relaxation. High-speed Wi-Fi ensures you stay connected, while streaming services like Netflix, Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+ promise endless entertainment.

Hungry? Our expansive kitchen is a culinary enthusiast's dream. Fully equipped with all the mod-cons, including a dishwasher, it boasts a generous island for casual meals and a grand dining table for feasts. Whether you're whipping up a quick snack or a gourmet dinner, it's all set against a backdrop of river views.

When it's time to rest, choose from two inviting queen bedrooms or the fun-filled bunk rooms, perfect for the younger ones or the young at heart. Drift off to dreamland in custom luxury hotel linens, ensuring a rejuvenating sleep.

Venturing out? Downtown Austin, with its eclectic mix of culture, cuisine, and music, is a mere 30-minute drive away. And with the airport just 12 miles from our doorstep, your travel is as hassle-free as it gets.

We don't charge a security deposit! Where many hosts charge over $500, and where you as the guest risk them not returning your deposit – Austin Vacay remains guest-centric by charging a one-time, non-refundable fee (already included in your booking price) which provides up to $1,000 of coverage towards unintentional rental property damages (subject to plan terms and conditions). This means a lower cost to book, and because accidents happen, protection against costly charges. Plan terms and conditions provided by request after booking.

Austin Vacay is proud to be able to service Austinites and travelers during these uncertain times. We have taken extra precautions to care for our guests and employees by introducing zero contact entry, enhanced cleaning protocols, and strict covering requirements for employees. We encourage our guests to review Texas and Austin’s travel guidelines and restrictions before making a reservation. We must work together to ensure a safe environment for everyone that enters our properties.
