This was a great find! Slept our group comfortably and was very clean. Close proximity to different marinas. Outdoor area and sunroom were a hit! Tons of information easily provided by host and host was readily available for any questions although we had zero issues during our stay!
I booked the place for 12 people for my sister’s bachelorette, and we had a blast! The space was easy to occupy, it was fun and cute, and the marina for our boat rental was a walk away!
This house was perfect for my bachelorette weekend. The perfect amount of space and such a cozy home. It was so nice to be right on the lake and have the pool. We were able to walk to the marina since we rented a boat for a day. Jackie was so responsive whenever I had to contact her, which was only once!
This is the 2nd time we stay and the cottage . Lovely property , clean and well maintained . Jackie the property manager was so helpful and professional and collaborative.
Super cute house, well maintained and very clean. The property managers are easy to deal with and stay on top of the maintenance of house. Perfect for small groups
We stayed here August 31, 2024. Location was pretty easy to get to, the house is beautiful, and there was plenty of space for 14 of us. The host was QUICK to respond to any questions and was highly accommodating and understanding. We stayed 2 nights and it was so much fun. The space really helped make the weekend memorable. Thanks again, Meika
I booked the place for a girls weekend and we had a great time. The property is huge and the pool/outdoor space are great for groups. The kitchen is on the smaller side for a larger group, but the outdoor grill area helps to make up for it, so we didn’t have any issues making it work. We loved the sunroom for coffee and dinners and the outdoor casita was great for the two pregnant ladies in our group who wanted to hit the hay a bit earlier. Meika was great to work with and super communicative about the property ahead of time. Great experience!
We enjoyed our two-night stay at this lake house. We also booked a boat for the day that left from the Paradise Cove Marina which we could walk to, so the location is convenient if you're looking to get out on a boat. The owner responded quickly to any questions post-check-in, which I appreciated. The only "negative" is that if you're sleeping in the casita, there was a pretty constant sound (day and night) that sounded like a mechanical squeal. It could be a one-off thing, but it was happening at all hours. I would stay again, but ask if that sound had been resolved. The house was cute and clean and great for a group of 8 - 11 people who are looking for a lake retreat!
This home is cute, clean and has been very nicely updated. The property managers are exceptionally attentive and very accommodating. 5+ stars for JW Properties!!!
Overall, we enjoyed our stay. The kitchen and pool are much smaller than the pictures depict, but are nice. The thing that was most disappointing were horribly uncomfortable beds. For the amount paid to stay here, one would expect a more comfortable and restful nights sleep.
The Casita is charming and cozy and the outdoor kitchen and seating were enjoyable. The Wi-Fi worked great and the boat rental on the shore in front of the house was a bonus.
After our annual family trip to Galveston was canceled due to Hurricane Beryl, we decided we needed to find a place where all 13 of us could gather to have a little fun in the sun, and a little relaxation. We searched VRBO for a place with a pool and found this gem! The title says it all: LOCATION! Our stay was from Sunday - Thursday, and we pretty much had the entire area to ourselves! It was very peaceful and relaxing. The cottage, which was built in the 1940s, was updated, but still maintained all its charm. We had everything we needed (HEB delivered groceries) and we pretty much just stayed in the pool and spa the entire time! We didn’t have any major issues, but any time we reached out to Meika, she responded quickly and was extremely helpful. Thank you, JW Properties and The Cottage at Paradise Cove, for a wonderful experience.

Beautiful views!
Very refreshing to stay here! Loved the pool and the backyard, although no swing was a let down. The listing does state that some things may be changed from the photos and several things we different, like the cute decor outside was not there so that was a little disappointing.
Love the views from the upstairs bedrooms. The stairs to the upstairs are STEEP and further apart than normal stairs so it was a challenge for some in our group to get up and down.
The gate the exit the property did not work. The sprinklers are the front of the property ran the entire duration of our stay which was hitting the exit keypad, so not sure if that interfered, but one in party had to jump the fence to open the gate- memories!
Despite how busy the beach got behind the house, you couldn't hear anything inside the house which was nice. The back patio/enclosed area was delightful!
The houses (main and cabin) had everything you could need. There were a few dead bugs so picking up dead roaches upon arrival is not the most welcoming site, but overall would stay here again.
Great Space to Relax on Lake Travis for Family and Friends
Overall, our group enjoyed their stay. Meika was easy to reach and communicate with and we enjoyed experiencing Lake Travis!
Pros: The home is well kept up... very clean and overall a truly beautiful space. The outdoor space was the highlight! The hot tub was easy to heat. Electronics such as the TV worked / it was easy to use. The kitchen appliances were in good shape (although this home was not nearly as well stocked in terms of pantry items as other VRBO properties I have stayed in... I would suggest at least having olive oil and tin foil!). Clean and updated bathrooms. Great A/C system to keep us all cool.
Cons: We had problems with the gates on the property upon arrival and throughout our visit. We were told was attributed to the gate being solar powered. This wasn't that big of a deal except when returning late in the evening to a rural neighborhood with a large party happening down the road with some interesting folks wandering around nearby. Lake levels were low, although this didn't keep us from enjoying the water. This property is right next to a marina where we were able to rent a boat for water access despite public launches being closed. The bunk beds are very noisy... our friends managed, but it was difficult for people to sleep comfortably when each time someone rolled over and the bunk bed made a sound.
Overall we were happy with the space! Thank you!
Jackie was a great host who was accessible and responsive. This property is amazing. The house is incredibly charming with great indoor and outdoor seating for large dinners. There is a main house with a downstairs bunk room and two upstairs room. Attached to the main house is a great sun room that looks out over the lake. The property also features the "casita" which is a one bed one bath pool house that sits off the main outdoor area. The pool was great, with good sun exposure all day. Beside the pool the is a pavilion that was a great spot to host dinner. Location wise it is walking distance from the Paradise Cove Marina where we were able to get dropped off by our boat rental and then pick up our jet ski rentals the following day.
We had the best time in a lovely location and beautiful house!

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in
The Vrbo property is beautiful and has a great location. The host was also an excellent communicator that facilitated a smooth booking and worked diligently to resolve the issues we encountered while staying at the property.Unfortunately, we had a series of issues that prevented our stay from being 5 stars.When our group checked in at 4:40 pm, the house had not been cleaned after the prior guests checked out. All beds were unmade with dirty sheets, dirty towels on the ground in each bathroom, counters dirty, and trash in trash cans inside the house from the previous guests. The second night there was heavy rainfall and about a quarter of the floor was covered in water. The pool light was not functional which made it difficult to swim in the pool after dark.The host did everything they could to fix the concerns in the moment and are much appreciated. I do recommend the owner have the casita checked for drainage concerns and possible mold as well as fixing the pool light.
