Near Pace Bend Park, Luck Ranch, Breweries, Distilleries & more! \-The Property A picture is 1000 words so please let them tell the story. As true Austenite's and accomplished Super hosts, we’re dialed in where comfort comes first and fun meets functional. This home is a lot of fun to design. The spacious floor plan accommodates large groups well, with the home's crown jewel being a second story patio coming off the primary offering views of the lake, stars & hills! With 8-foot privacy fences on ½ acre there’s lots of room to sprawl. Fun art & colorful accents fill the walls making this a destination you’ll remember. \-The Lake The lake is visible throughout the house & you’ll have access to a private neighborhood park, with a boat ramp (usable when lake levels permit) accessible by a 2 minute walk. This park butts up to the main body of the Colorado River so the lake remains accessible even with its fluctuating levels. You can walk or drive down to the water to spend a day in the sun or rent water crafts from the Briarcliff Marina or other nearby businesses. \-Living Areas/ Patios The main living room offers an open floor plan set up for entertaining w/ vaulted ceilings, tons of natural lighting & many creative touches you’ll enjoy. With a large, 75” TV/ soundbar & fun/ functional furniture you’ll spend a lot of time in this space. There are three outdoor patios on the 1 ⁄ 2 acre lot to enjoy, most notably the 2nd story patio coming off the primary that looks at the lake & stars. \-The Rooms The primary room is spacious with a king bed, private bath & balcony with seating for 6\. The large, over-sized, climate controlled walk-in closet has been set up for families with babies, offering a crib, rocking chair & other necessities. Guest Room 1 offers a King bed sharing a detached bathroom with the Bunk Room where you’ll find a Queen bunk bed, built for adults, accommodating 4\. All rooms have large, new Smart TV’s w/ Netflix, YouTube, Hulu, Max, Prime, etc. High speed internet throughout the house. \-Backyard/ Pets We know people love their animals so you’ll find 2 dog doors that lead into a securely fenced backyard. We also know people love their privacy so we’ve built 8 foot privacy fences separating adjacent houses so you can privately enjoy the entire ½ acre lot. \-The Area/ Neighborhood The neighborhood is safe & quiet with lots of wildlife located in the heart of the Texas Hill Country, encompassing Spicewood, Lakeway, Briarcliff, Marble Falls, and Austin. Area offers a unique blend of natural beauty, rolling hills, pristine lakes (Travis, Austin & Buchanan) & is really an outdoor enthusiast's paradise. Visitors enjoy a myriad of recreational activities, from hiking at Pace Bend Park, water sports on Lake Travis to spirit tasting at dozens of vineyards, breweries & distilleries that are close by. Additionally, the thriving cultural scene in Austin provides live music, diverse cuisine, and a dynamic arts community. \-Who we are. If you appreciate the style of this house please check out our other rental properties located in Central Austin & Terlingua/ Big Bend that have been designed with the same level of fun & creativity. We have strong roots in Texas/ Austin & support the local arts scenes often collaborating with local artists. I’m open for conversations & projects around design & property management. #thorntoya ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Car recommended - Onsite parking options include a garage ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Hob - Ice maker - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2.5 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Shower - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Games - Smart TV - Stereo ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Fenced yard - Firepit - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - 4 pets total ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - Near an outlet shopping centre - Near the marina - On a lake ### Things to do - Arcade/game room - Kayak - Table tennis - Water sports equipment - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Swimming nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden - Unit size: 2,300 square feet ## Similar properties ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/42000000/41940000/41939000/41938960/3b36a381.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Lakeway Lakeway - Pool - Breakfast included - Pet-friendly - Parking included 9.2 Wonderful 707 reviews £91 includes taxes & fees 8 Mar - 9 Mar [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-08&endDate=2026-03-09&selected=41938960&PinnedHotelID=41938960&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Lobby](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/57000000/56970000/56963800/56963717/038584da.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### SpringHill Suites by Marriott Austin West/Lakeway Lakeway - Pool - Breakfast included - Pet-friendly - Free Wi-Fi 9.0 Wonderful 642 reviews £100 includes taxes & fees 8 Mar - 9 Mar [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-08&endDate=2026-03-09&selected=56963717&PinnedHotelID=56963717&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Reception](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/3000000/2180000/2179400/2179301/51f78c79.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Hampton Inn & Suites Austin - Lakeway Lakeway - Pool - Breakfast included - Pet-friendly - Parking included 8.8 Excellent 739 reviews £116 includes taxes & fees 1 Mar - 2 Mar [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-01&endDate=2026-03-02&selected=2179301&PinnedHotelID=2179301&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/59000000/58330000/58323300/58323246/ab0427cb.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Homewood Suites by Hilton Austin/Cedar Park-Lakeline Anderson Mill - Pool - Breakfast included - Pet-friendly - Parking included 9.4 Exceptional 860 reviews £83 includes taxes & fees 5 Mar - 6 Mar [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-05&endDate=2026-03-06&selected=58323246&PinnedHotelID=58323246&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/6000000/5210000/5209500/5209494/8a30d064.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Holiday Inn Express & Suites Austin NW - Lakeway by IHG Lakeway - Pool - Breakfast included - Parking included - Free Wi-Fi 8.0 Very good 1,002 reviews £70 includes taxes & fees 25 Feb - 26 Feb [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-25&endDate=2026-02-26&selected=5209494&PinnedHotelID=5209494&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/28000000/27180000/27173500/27173490/95578391.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Large house with 5 Bedrooms 2.5 bath sleep 12 , fully garage to use Three Points - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Pet-friendly 9.4 Exceptional 119 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-09&endDate=2026-03-10&selected=27173490&PinnedHotelID=27173490&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/19000000/18770000/18762200/18762119/93168633.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Lake Travis Oasis, Pool, Hot Tub, Lake Views, Near Marinas & Austin!

Check in was easy. The house itself was bigger than it looks in the pictures. There were lots of bugs/spiders around the exterior, on the patios, etc. Water pressure was low and it was clear that some of the house had been redone quickly and cheaply but overall it was a nice and comfortable stay. The glow in the dark ping pong table was the highlight for me. The lake is truly just a short walk down the driveway and easily accessible. Kitchen was nice and had lots of spices and cookware stocked. ##### John L.

It was exactly how it was advertised and so beautiful. I loved all of the cool art and decor it has. It’s a great location, only a 5 min walk to the lake and there are a lot of amenities to use in the kitchen and bedrooms. Super clean and easy to access. A great stay for a great price. I highly recommend! ##### Kira T. Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Erica S. 26 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A quiet neighborhood in the hills The house was great in almost every way. It’s clean and well maintain. We loved the dog door and back yard area for the fur babies. It’s a quiet street with a gate for lake access and a lil park very close. I would like to visit again with more time to enjoy it. My only complaint is that to get to a restaurant of any kind means a drive down from the hills. So- bring something for breakfast if you wake up starving, like I do, and you’ll be all set to enjoy this peaceful retreat. Oh, and use the countertop because that table is an art piece and impossible to clean or even set a plate flat on it. ##### Erica S.
