About this property

Lake Buchanan Waterfront Getaway

Casa Del Lago at Buchanan is located in Texas Hill Country on the beautiful Lake Buchanan in Burnet, Texas. This waterfront home is only 1 hour from Austin Texas and 2 hours from San Antonio, Texas. You and your party can enjoy gorgeous sunsets from one of the spacious patios while listening to the waves lap against the shoreline. Or take a dip in the lake from our floating dock with sun-deck.

The property is a walking distance from Vanishing Texas River Cruises, 3 miles from Canyon of the Eagles & Eagle Eye Observatory and 7 miles from Spider Mountain Bike Park.

Featuring 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms with a large basement/rec area and sleeping for 8, this beautiful Hill Country escape guarantees an unforgettable Texas experience!

A spacious floor plan and sweeping Lake Views make this a retreat that evokes the sensation of touching the heavens and soaring above the wind-swept waters of the lake. The wrap-around deck floats at the skyline level and offers sensational views of Lake Buchanan and the surrounding hills, a photographer’s dream come true! Soft breezes and the gentle sound of water lapping at the shore make the outside deck an inviting place to view beautiful natural surroundings by day, as well as the perfect spot to watch the brilliant stars and dazzling moon on clear nights.

Vaulted ceilings and a private, spacious layout create a tranquil atmosphere inside the house. The airy living room invites lounging in the comfortable sitting area or reading a good book by the wood-burning fireplace and taking pleasure in the sweeping views of the water below.

Our beautifully decorated guest rooms serve as a serene oasis for a restful night’s sleep in luxurious linens and Queen-size memory foam mattresses. Before retiring for the night, enjoy the stars one more time as you gaze out the many windows throughout the house.

This home is just around the corner from the Vanishing Texas River Cruise and Canyon of the Eagles. By boat, you can get to the magnificent waterfalls on the Colorado River and see the soaring eagles within a few minutes of leaving the dock.

While staying at Casa Del Lago, bring your boat and tie off at the new, spacious floating dock. Or rent one of our watercraft! Its easy to add a 1/2 day fishing charter to catch some fresh striped bass for dinner. Or rent a wakeboard boat (with captain) (ask for details)

great place to relax with the family!

The house and location were superb! We had a wonderful time staying here with our two daughters and the grandkids. The home was clean, spacious, and beautifully maintained—perfect for a relaxing family getaway. The kitchen was well-equipped, the beds were comfortable, and we especially enjoyed the outdoor space. The neighborhood was quiet and scenic. It truly felt like a home away from home. We would happily stay here again!
sunset from the house.
Even with all the illumination next door, I was able to take a 3 sec picture of the milky way with my phone.
Skywatching Note – June 26th, ~9 PM: Look toward the middle right. You’ll see Mercury on the left, the Moon in the middle, and Pollux (the left twin stars from Gemini).

We had a wonderful experience staying at the property. The house was beautiful and very comfortable. A few minor updates needed but we had a great experience!!! The property manager was wonderful and always stayed in contact with us. If we needed anything, the response was immediate.

Great views

The property itself is quite beautiful - the view was amazing and there were beautiful flowers and wildlife to see. It’s a very scenic drive which we enjoyed. The house was nice for the most part, but we did have some issues. The chairs at the dock and the ladder down to the water were broken, the basement wouldn’t cool below 80, towels were stained, and the kitchen needed some more (and less rusty) pots/pans/utensils. Nice property just needed a few things to make it a truly comfortable stay!

Thank you for staying with us and providing feedback. We alerted the cleaning crew regarding pots, pans and towels. Regarding basement A/C we had an electrician / AC repair tech come and look at it and we replaced the units. Thank you for altering us.

Great Location

Stayed over the July 4 holiday for our twins birthday. Excellent house on a small cove, very relaxing. Witnessed a ton of fireworks from houses surrounding, was great sitting on the wrap around porch and watching the lake. Road to house is a little tight if you were to bring a boat trailer, I was able to contact a local guy who owned a few storage lots in the area and left my trailer on his place for a small fee, much easier. Launched at Burnet County Park and had my boat in the house slip for the week. Excellent time, highly recommended!

Beautiful peaceful on g weekend at th elake

We absolutely loved the house. It was spotless and so comfortable. The ping pong table was an extra bonus. We hung out out the dock playing in the water and took the vanishing river nature cruise. Stacy was the best host - I loved the pre arrival info with suggestions on things to do. she really was the nicest host we have ever had. I forgot my charger and she made the extra effort to return to me. If you are looking for a peaceful beautiful get away this is the spot!

Not what we expected

House was beautiful and very nice. It was clean and well maintained. Check in process was great. We were so looking forward to getting our boat in the water and to the boat dock to start our vacation. The stairs leading to the dock were not connected and you had to literally jump from the stairs to the dock. There was so much debris in the water we almost could not get our boat to the dock. And there was absolutely no way you could swim in the water. Was told this was temporary from recent storms, but would have been nice if we had been informed of the situation since we would have changed the dates of our stay.
Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2025
Response from VrboOwner on 5 July 2025
As we discussed it is a river and the recent floods brought debris into the cove because of wind direction and it will clear up by itself. We moved the dock off the ladder and provided a wooden plank to get on the dock for that reason. Not much we can do with nature and how the floods and winds act.

Beautiful Lake House

This property was everything I was hoping for and met our needs to a T. I promised my daughter I would take her and a couple friends on a "staycation" for some summer jetskiing fun. The lake house is secluded enough where you feel you are on vacation yet close enough to everything you need - gas, boat launch, grocery store. The house was very clean and the layout was exactly what I was looking for.. kids had the lower area to hang out, I had the upstairs to myself and we all met on the middle floor for eating and watching late night movies. The view... BEAUTIFUL!! I thoroughly enjoyed sitting out on one of the many seating areas just to relax and enjoy the view. If you are a star gazer, you will be thrilled with how many you can see at night! Stacy made the reservation/rental process super easy and was readily available to answer all of my questions. I will definitely be back and look forward to switching it up for an adult girls only trip :)

Great home on the lake

It was a great place to celebrate family birthdays. The only complaint I might have is that there were not enough dishes for the number of guests the house accommodates. We will definitely recommend to friends and plan to stay again in the future.
Response from VrboOwner on 22 Mar 2020
Thank you for that tip. We will take that advice and increase the dish supply before our next rental. We really appreciate the feedback! We are glad that you all enjoyed your family celebration and we appreciate you choosing to stay at Casa Del Lago!

Charming House on Lake Buchanan

My family and I spent the weekend at this property. It is located between the Vanishing River Cruise and the Canyon of the Eagles. It is a newer property. The house was well stocked and decorated very well. The front porch was awesome with great views of the sunset and the lake. The boat dock was a nice added feature. Overall, a great place to stay.
