About this property

Private Waterfront w Boat Ramp and Covered Dock ! Relaxing Get Away!

Note: check lake levels before booking! Lake Travis is not a constant level lake and it rises and falls depending on rainfall amounts! Swim, float or bring your boat! House comes with use of private covered boat dock. The cottage sleeps up to 8 people. One bedroom has a queen size bed and a single futon sofa. The other bedroom has 2 sets of bunk beds. One of the lower bunk beds is a full size bed and the other 3 are twin size beds. Living room has a sleeper sofa as well. Cozy intimate cottage is perfect for a family. The entire space is full of light and the lakefront is in full view through the wall of windows facing west. The huge 3 acre lot has mature oaks and plenty of room to frolic! We have a beautiful porch overlooking the lakefront and inviting yard. We also have another 2 bedroom 1 bath house on the lot.
Lake Travis is not a constant level lake, and Texas has sporadic droughts, therefore please take note that the lake level is NOT guaranteed. Please check lake level before booking!

NOTE: Events/Parties, Holiday weekends and special events rent for a slightly higher rates. Wedding rates are also available.

Number of guests and pets must be accurate and can be updated all the way till check in. If the number of people and/or pets is not accurate, the fee for extra people and/or pets will be doubled and charged.

VIP Marina rents boats or jet skis and is popular with guests!

If the water is too low for boats, Jones Brothers Park or Sandy Creek Park are great places very close by to launch boats from! Renting on the lake is the prescription for relaxation. We are in a drought in 2022, so while the main body of the lake is over 100 feet deep, we don't have water at our place. Check lake levels before renting!

Agreeing to reserve and book this property online binds renter to the Rental Agreement and Waiver of Liability found in the House Rules section of our listing and applies to all water activities and water equipment.

Great Space
Plenty of room to hang out inside and outside. Lots of shady spots to set up horse shoes or just enjoy the scenery. The hills are a pleasant change from flat concrete and high-rises. Loved all the windows in the house, allowing the outside in and the back porch where you can look down toward the water. We went when it was dry due to the drought but still enjoyed the stay due to the expansive yard. Very peaceful and you can see the stars at night. Close to marina's where we rented a jetski and to The Oasis which is a great attraction you shouldn't miss.

A little piece of paradise
We absolutely loved our stay and definitely recommend! Kyle was a great host and super responsive to my questions about launching and docking my jetskis since the lake is a bit down right now. Even with the water being low, the property is amazing! We hung out on the covered dock and the dogs had a blast running around on the "beach". The property is very private with all the amenities you could want and the house is super cozy and felt like home. We will definitely go back!

The Little White Cottage by the Lake
Our stay at the white cottage was great, the neighborhood was very quiet and peaceful, we fished from the nice covered docks, we were lucky enough to use the other dock since the people in the other cottage were not interested in fishing.. I wish we stayed a few more days.. we definitely will come back…very clean, the bed was comfortable… very peaceful, you feel safe…

About the host

Hosted by Kyle Holder

Host profile image
Kyle and his family have enjoyed living in Austin for decades. We love this peaceful setting and hope that you do too!

Why they chose this property

This property is an obvious choice, if you love being on Lake Travis, enjoy water sports, hill country views and looking at the stars at nite.... We quickly realized how fun it would be to have an intimate and cozy lake house that we could share with our families, friends and occasional visitors to Austin. We have 2 house on the 3 acre lot, both very private. Contact Kyle if you are interested in renting both for a larger group.

What makes this property unique

The Hill Country atmosphere with the views and location on Lake Travis is magical. There is a great feeling being under the stars next to the peaceful lake, while at the same time being so close to the vibrancy of Austin, Texas!
