Fantastic Rental on the Lake

We loved staying at this property (and our kiddos loved it as well!). Great location on the lake. Amenities were awesome and the house was very tastefully appointed. We especially loved hanging out at the dock both nights of our stay. Would absolutely recommend and hope to do a repeat if we come back to Austin in the future.

Perfect lake house retreat

We enjoyed everything about this property! The lake is chilly, but refreshing in the summer and less boat traffic than other parts of the lake. We enjoyed being able to bring our boat and leave it tied to the dock. The house is perfect for two families. Easy check in and host was very responsive.

Awesome Weekend on the Lake

This is a lovely property, right on Lake Austin, with a boat dock. The views from the boat pavilion are lovely and the there is a small beach which makes getting into the water extra easy. The top floor of the house is open plan; great for families and get-togethers. The kitchen dining and living area all open to a second floor porch. Downstairs are three bedrooms, another porch, and access to the lake. A great place for fun and relaxation.

Stunning lake house with a Texas state of mind

This beautiful house is a gem! You'll feel a world away from the city in this peaceful location. The house fit my family easily with plenty of room to spare. We spent every afternoon eating and drinking on the breezy porches before moving down to the upper deck of the boat dock for more relaxation. The house was spotless, stocked with everything you could need and the beds were incredibly comfortable. The host was super easy to work with. I will absolutely rent this house again for my next Lake Austin vacation!

Spacious Lake Austin Retreat

We had the pleasure of staying at Montview Harbor for 8 nights during the summer. The house is new and feels purpose-built; all of the rooms orient to the lake in a delightful way. Since the house is situated on the top of the canyon slope residents enter onto the top floor which houses all of the public spaces of the house (living, dining, kitchen) as well as one of the bedrooms. Downstairs are the other three bedrooms and entrance to the terracing that takes you down to the lake. The lake side of the house is continuously covered with porches and terraces which provide ample opportunities to be outside but also shielded from the sun. On the lake is a boat house which provides multiple opportunities to hang out on the water. We brought our kayaks and it was simple to launch them due to the sand beach adjacent to the dock. The boat house is outfitted with very comfortable furniture; we spent most evenings having drinks there while we looked at the night sky. Due to the location of the house on the lake breezes were reasonable and we were comfortable more than we thought we would be in the Texas summer. The yard between the house and the lake is fenced which worked out great because the owner graciously allowed us to bring our dogs. The interior of the house is charmingly finished; wood and stained concrete floors, concrete countertops and high end appliances create an atmosphere of casual Texas elegance. My family has rented Lake Austin house multiple times and Montview Harbor was the most enjoyable / comfortable experience that we have had.

This house and property are lovely! My husband and I take our college aged nieces and nephews for a wakesurf trip each summer and this house was absolutely perfect! So much space, beautiful luxurious bathrooms, comfy beds, gated area for our dogs, and the boat dock was perfect for sipping wine and viewing the moon! Great trip and we definitely will book again!

Beautiful location

While we experienced some maintenance issues with the property they were all items that could easily be remedied with a good maintenance review prior to the next rental. We found the location and views perfect for our family and the kids loved the waterfront access for the kayak we brought with us. Cynthia was responsive when we reached out and although the maintenance issues couldn’t be fixed during our stay we still enjoyed the family time and property. The home has some beautiful upgrades and views to relax and the lights on the deck were a nice relaxing touch for evenings.

I have been renting our home on Lake LBJ since 2008 and we decided to purchase a home on Lake Austin so that our guests could also enjoy our little slice of paradise on Lake Austin. I own the home and I also manage it so you will be speaking directly with me and not a management service. My Lake LBJ rental home has over 115 5-star reviews that you can look through.

Why they chose this property

The first time we saw this home, we knew we had to purchase it. It is amazing. The view, the decks, the kitchen! The shallow water is perfect for our dogs and our children. It is tucked away in a little quiet neighborhood on Lake Austin but it is still close to the city.
