Great Bachelor Party House

Overall great house for a bachelor party. There is a lot of space for everyone to spread out, pool and ping pong table were awesome to have, the pool was a perfect temperature. Host was very responsive. Only downside was that the lake in that area is dried up, so you can’t swim in the lake.

About the host

Hosted by Paula Shriver

Host profile image
I love working with people! For the past 25 years I have owned and operated multifamily and single-family housing. My goal is to provide a safe comfortable home for relaxing and enjoyment! I love hosting and creating a fun atmosphere for all guests.

Why they chose this property

If you have a large family or group, you probably wont fit anywhere else on the lake. This house is the perfect get away for family reunions or corporate outings. However, we do have a strict noise ordinance as we do have neighbors that we do not want to be disturbed.

Yard is xeri-scaped with wide variety of flowering plants, trees. Lots of birds, deer, squirrels, sometimes even a fox visits.

Pool Canyon Cove is one of few deep water coves on Lake Travis. The whole cove is no wake zone (boats idle through). Main body is a minute away and you can go skiing or boating while everyone can swim at the house in safety. This cove is the perfect spot for kayaking or paddle boarding. Feel free to bring your own.

The home is 30 minutes from downtown Austin, with shopping and restaurants 10 to 20 minutes away.

What makes this property unique


Invite the entire family but don't worry about being crowded in one home. There are 5 king beds, 2 queen beds, 2 double beds, and 3 twin beds This house has plenty of areas for your own peace and enjoyment. Sit on one of the outside decks and stare at the lake or wander down to the lake. OUR NEW POOL IS SCHEDULED FOR COMPLETION MAY 2026🤞
