About this property

Relaxing Waterfront Home on Inks Lake

Welcome to the best of the Hill Country 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 the popular Inks Lake State Park and Fish Hatchery.

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, game room, 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.

>> 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.

The perfect setting for a precious family memory
Check in and check out was super clear and easy. Nancy was available by text for questions that were actually answered in the well written booklet inside. The house was even better than the description and photos. It generously accommodated our extended family of 8 in an architecturally amazing structure. The beds were super comfortable, with good support and soft toppers. There was also an extra bed curtained off from the living room and absolutely perfect for our independent eldest child. The kitchen was the best supplied of any I have ever used. One member fell in love with the Weber grill and smoker and cooked like we had not known he could. The setting was alive with wildflowers and the lake a heavenly charm.The nearby town of Burnet had everything we needed including an upscale grocery store. We spent most of our time on the porch playfully fighting over the hanging swing or lounging in the abundant chairs watching wildlife visit the lawn, the trees, and sky. It felt like Heaven. Our shared experience of the total eclipse in this serene and beautiful place has given us a precious memory that will be shared with coming generations.

Spring Family Fun
Our family had such a wonderful stay at Nancy and Richard’s gorgeous lake house. It was a little too cold for swimming, but we enjoyed every second of our time relaxing by the lake, playing yard games, board games, fishing, cooking, and taking in all the natural beauty of the area during springtime. The house was stocked with everything we needed and there was plenty of space for our group of 4 adults and 4 kids. We will be back!

About the host

Hosted by Nancy

Host profile image
In the early years, our children learned how to water ski, wakeboard and wake surf here with their friends. Now that our kids are grown, we decided to share the lake house and property with others!

We want your time at Inks Lake to be as memorable as ours. Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions or need any add'l information.

Why they chose this property

The house is located on a private no-wake cove which provides protected access for swimming, fishing and/or boating. There's only one public boat ramp on Inks Lake so boat traffic is normally lite. Please feel free to email or call if you need any additional information.

What makes this property unique

Ideal for families, friends and children! Come enjoy the relaxing setting beside the lake, spending time in the water or fishing during the day and star gazing at night.
