Kayak, swim, and fish in the backyard of your two-bedroom waterfront home on Lake Buchanan! The big 3/4-acre lot is surrounded by water on three sides.

This charming 1930s cottage was moved from west Austin and has been lovingly restored. Interior highlights include a wood-burning fireplace, festive lake-themed décor and wood floors, as well as a large collection of board games.

The new deck features a firepit and amazing views of the lake. Sway peacefully in the hammock by the water. Other perks include three kayaks, fishing poles/nets, and an outdoor shower. The Burnet County Park Public Boat Ramp is within a 2-minute drive.

LIVING AREA

A smart TV in the living area lets you stream shows and movies from your favorite digital service. A sofa bed and two armchairs provide comfy seating. Light the wood-burning fireplace for added allure.

KITCHEN & DINING

Prepare tasty meals in the kitchen, appointed with an array of helpful gadgets. As dinner simmers, perch at the kitchen bar for four.

When you’re ready to eat, gather around the table for six in the dining area.

BED & BATH

Sleep soundly in the min bedroom, where you’ll also find a TV, a desk, and direct access to the deck.

The second bedroom is furnished with three twin-size beds, one of which includes a twin trundle.

A half bath with direct access to the outdoor shower provides additional convenience.

OUTDOOR AREA & AMENITIES

Launch a kayak or cast a fishing line from the banks of Lake Buchanan in your backyard. The grassy yard provides space to play.

Newly constructed, the deck offers a wood-burning firepit, Adirondack chairs, and a dining table for four. Sway peacefully in the waterside hammock. You'll find an outdoor shower on the side of the home.

EXTRA PERKS & MORE DETAILS

Extra perks include complimentary Wi-Fi, and a washer/dryer. Three kayaks, life jackets, oars, fishing poles, and nets are also supplied.

Access to the front door is via six exterior steps.

THE LOCATION

Boat owners will appreciate being just a 2-minute drive from the Burnet County Park Public Boat Ramp.

Spider Mountain Bike Park (4 miles) features lift-serviced mountain biking.

Family vacation
What a great house and location. This was a short family trip before school starts back up. It was clean and right on the water. We made great use of the kayaks and enjoyed playing some of the board games. We even caught a few fish off the bank.

Great vacation rental
This was a nice house located in a quaint neighborhood with beautiful scenery and deer roaming through the lot. Would update fishing poles as they were a bit neglected. Would highly recommend for a family to get a way at a nice large lake.

Looks like a great place
We were not able to make it to the property bc my grandfather passed away. The property managers would not allow me to reschedule bc of their cancellation policy. Looks like a great place. We might try to book again but I would only book this as a last minute trip bc of this experience.
