Last minute vacation

Great location on the river. Just deep enough to have fun and still wade through.

Great location

Relaxing Location, with a great view. Enjoyed our stay as the house was spacious and accommodated everyone. Toddlers and older kids loved the place and open living room. The river was flooded with all the recent rain but it looks like it’s a great spot to get in the water once it slows down a little bit. Would definitely stay again!

Beautiful Place!

This was a great location and kids and dogs loved playing in the water out back! The house was immaculate and living room so comfortable for relaxing after being out all day. We will definitely come back to this place again if we are in the area.

Quiet house with a view

Quiet neighborhood with the perfect area to get in and stay in the water all day. Excellent for small children, because the water is not too deep. The house also has everything you’ll need for larger groups as well. Will definitely be back!

Family lake weekend

It was very nice and quiet. We liked the back deck to sit and relax! The front door lock was a little difficult to open, but Julie was called and it was taken care of. The location was great for meeting other family members, we all had a great time!

Beautiful Waterfront Home on the Llano!

We absolutely loved our stay! It was a great getaway with plenty of space in the house. The waterfront was beautiful and the water was amazing. Just as described - sandy beach & clear water which was perfect for our 18 month old. We also rented the kayaks from the homeowners, which were so fun to explore the area. We will definitely be back!

Great getaway!

Had a fun week! The kitchen is stocked with most everything you could need. There was a blender and even a crockpot along with all the pots/pans, plates, bowls, spoons, cups, ect you could ever need. The water was great! It was about waist high to ankle deep depending on where in the river you were.

Great Llano River getaway!

We loved coffee on the back patio in the AM's; AMAZING view! The water depth at the property is shallow making it easy to explore/walk all around the area. Across from the property there were awesome rocks; I am a "stacker" and had a blast. We loved looking for interesting rocks/etc. The river setting at this property is serene/very peaceful (NO boat traffic!). The house was great; we liked cooking out on the grill(s)! Definitely had a wonderful time and would like to come back soon!

Beautiful location, very clean house

We enjoyed our stay, beautiful yard, beautiful view, perfect water level for small children. Only problem we had was the stairs in the house. Four of us fell from the stairs, we think due to the laminate trim catching our shoes or toes. No one was hurt, just bruised.

Fun property off the lake

This is a fun property off the water. Property is an advertised. No surprises at all. I definitely enjoyed watching the sun go down on the back patio. You will also enjoy watching the hummingbirds in the backyard. The home is located in the shallow end of the lake, which is great if you want to rent a canoe from the owner. The beach area is very close if you want to paddle there. Overall, definitely worth the price, and you won’t be disappointed.

Disappointed

The location was nice. The house was nice, but lacking in amenities. We walked into a cold, dark house. The inside of the house was basically clean, with the exception of the centerpiece on the dining table that was stuck to it as a result of improper cleaning. I’m not much for plastic, so finding that there was no glass plates, or glasses was also a disappointment. Glass coffee cups were provided, but were stuck to the liner inside the cabinet. I was hesitant to use anything without prior washing on my part. Most of the serving dishes were also plastic I found this a concern as plastic is hard to sterilize. The patio cushions were dirty and the lights were covered with spiderwebs. The appearance suggested that it had not been cleaned in a really long time. The previous B&Bs that I have stayed in offered shampoo and soap for showers; this one did not. Since this was a lake house, I did expect to at least find a hairdryer, but this was not the case. The Wi-Fi and password did not work. I was finally able to get this access by using a different network which accepted the password. This B&B has so much potential as it does have nice access to the water. The visit with family made it possible to overlook the things that I had expected from this B&B.

Waterfront not as advertised.

There were several aspects of this home we enjoyed. While not modern or updated, the home was clean, spacious and open, making it very comfortable. It had a lovely view out the back of the house, which was all windows and blue sky. We enjoyed the starry night skies, the natural scenery out back and the large back patio and yard, especially since our dog could run and play fetch. However, the sole reason we chose this house was its access to the river. We intended to swim, fish and kayak on the river/lake, which was described as being a constant 3-4 foot level. Our plan was to hunker down as a family and spend our days relaxing on the water. (We thought this would be perfect for our teen son who is recovering from hip surgery and is limited in swimming mobility). We were incredibly disappointed when we saw a sandbar in the back and the water level 1- 6 inches max. This significantly altered the tone of our trip and our moods. We ended up regrouping, and driving to find nearby swim-able areas. Please be aware this area suffered from a flood last year, which displaced sand and altered the flow of the river and level of water at this location. This should be reflected in the home description. The water is not as currently described nor as pictured. (Furthermore, the water was very warm and kind of smelly from silt and there is no longer shade down by the waterfront, since the trees were knocked down by the flood.) Recent reviews which described spending the day in the water are hard to fathom. Unfortunately we felt misled and that we didn't get what we paid for -paying way too much- which is hard to swallow. I regret having to write this review but feel it is necessary. The owners should change the description of the river and the pictures to match the current status of property.

Just Right

The house was exactly as pictured. The beds were very comfortable. I slept in the twin in the sunroom, and it was great. We booked a fishing guide and needed a place to stay. We enjoyed sitting on the back porch and telling stories. We found spices in the kitchen, but no oil. Also, bring your own bath wash and shampoo. The neighbors are nice and we enjoyed brief chats.

Beautiful location

The house was clean and well equipped, - plenty of kitchen items. Our only complaint would be the numerous cob webs under the covering of the deck. Spiders came down from the covering onto my husband twice. I understand Texas has bugs, but spraying the deck and under the covering a day or so before guests might help.
