Great house to get away from the city but close enough to enjoy the city!

Bright cheery home with 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, 2 living areas and great pool in the backyard....just for YOU! Convenient to Lake Travis marinas and a 30 minute drive to downtown or to the nearby hill country attractions. Enjoy the secluded location with deer in the front yard but close enough to Austin to take in thee sights. Want to get on Lake Travis? Marinas are in the area to rent a boat.
Located in a friendly residential neighborhood in the Hudson Bend area.

Stay for the COTA GP
The property was beautiful and very clean! The only down side is that we weren’t able to utilize the pool due the water heater not working and it seemed the filter was not running so the pool seemed dirty. Otherwise the house was beautiful and check in and check out was easy.

Lovely home, peaceful getaway
The house is so warm and inviting and was stocked with all we would need for our family stay. My kiddos enjoyed the pool, rec room and the comfortable beds. I enjoyed being able to prepare a few home cooked meals in the stocked kitchen. We had to extend our stay a few extra days and our hostess, Paula, was so responsive and accommodating.This is a lovely rental and is appropriate for large families like mine. We will definitely be back!

PERFECT!
Great house in a great location! It was perfect for our group of 8. It was a quick drive to town if we needed anything but far enough way from town that there was deer in the front yard this morning. Paula was great and responsive when I had any questions. Would stay again!
