    This three-story, family-friendly retreat provides the ultimate Lake Travis getaway! It's spacious and well-equipped, perfect for large groups! A rustic yet charming and elegant interior decor will greet you as soon as you step inside Spicewood Treehouse. A skylight in the vaulted ceilings floods the living room with natural light, creating the perfect spot for relaxation. Additionally, this area has a set of comfortable sofas and armchairs strategically placed near a 54" TV. Located on the third floor, the well-equipped kitchen with appliances, all the cooking essentials, and granite countertops lets you indulge your inner chef. Guests can take advantage of the mini-fridge in the bar on the lowest floor.

    And if that's not enough for a unique experience, you can treat your guests to authentic Texas meals using the gas grill available. Whenever weather permits, you can dine alfresco at the two outdoor dining areas. The deck also features a swinging sofa, the perfect place to relax and admire unparalleled Lake Travis views with a steamy cup of tea. Spicewood Treehouse is all about our guests' convenience, and that's why it offers an on-site washer/dryer.

    Book this retreat today, and you'll be granted access to two shared pools in the neighborhood.

    You'll be located in the gated Windermere Oaks community and only a few steps from the water - spend sunny days paddling Lake Travis in the provided canoes (there are two canoes available for guests during peak season). A community boat ramp is nearby. This location is perfect for getting away from it all, but if you still need to feel that vibrant city life, booming Austin is 36 miles away. Make sure to visit Pace Bend State Park and Muleshoe Bend Recreation Area on Lake Travis for great hikes and scenic roads.

    Issues
    Had to contact property manager as there were many problems. Water pressure too low. A/C could not keep property cool. Vacasa employee Kelly promised to determine a refund of some of the cost of rentingl this house. BUT HAS NOT FOLLOWED UP. I cannot recommend this house to anyone until many issues are addressed. Worse property I have stayed at.

    Most Memorable Weekend!
    Not only did we celebrate my boyfriend’s 40th birthday, but we also got engaged! It was perfect for our close family and friends. It reminded me of a weekend on the lake when I was growing up! It was the perfect house for the perfect weekend. A bit weathered but it had an old campy feel, and it definitely brought us all back to our late 80’s, esrly 90’s childhood vacations! The house slept everyone perfectly and was the perfect space for entertainment! We will be back! I hope to do this year after year! Such an unforgettable trip.

    Great views and lots of space
    We had a great visit and would stay again. The driveway is very steep which could be a problem for some people. The stairs to the water access are also steep and numerous. The living areas are very roomy and most household items are provided. We had no issue with towels but we found blankets to be limited. There was no blanket on our master bed other than the quilt that I would not normally sleep with. The water pressure was great even with 16 of us. The fridge is big and there is plenty storage for a longer stay. Life vests ,a kayak and a canoe were also available. We really couldn't use this feature due to weather. Oh and there are board games and access to ROKU streaming. The internet was strong for all of us. Teens really need the wifi! Now on to the negative. When we arrived there was gum stuck to the wall and the carpet was stained heading down stairs to the lowest floor. The stain isn't that big of an issue except I wish it was noted already so we didn't have to worry about it. The listing states there is a king bed but it is actually queen. Also, the beds are very very very hard and need replacing or some sort of mattress pad. I also believe there should be one more twin in the master or a fold out bed in there. We had in laws which created a weird sleeping arrangement since some kids didn't want to share beds with kids they don't know that well. The propane grill needs a lot of cleaning. The grease literally caught fire while cooking burgers. There were two scorpions in one of the bedrooms and lots of spider webs on all the windows. I don't know if this is because of COVID or not, but I do wish salt pepper and sugar were provided. There is no Keurig machine and the blender did not work. Our rental host was speedy about providing a propane refill for the grill. We wound up not using it after fearing a fire would start. We cooked the rest inside after that. Lastly, I was very disappointed with the lack of weed eating or trimming back the pathway to the water. There were thorn bushes that needed to be cut out of the way and the canoe was full of water. There was also trash along the hillside. I am sure that is from other renters or the wind but it was sad to look at. All in all, I'd stay again. The views are worth it.

    Reviewing the Treehouse
    We loved being able to walk to the lake and go on the canoe. The balcony off the living room was very relaxing. The community pool by the entrance of the neighborhood was best for our larger group because it did not have too many houses around it. Although the house has sleeping arrangements for 16+ people, majority of them are bunk beds and more accommodating to kids than couples (we had 6 couples in our group)! We found lots of cob webs (with spiders) around the window seals upon our arrival, which was surprising for a house that had been cleaned just before our arrival. In addition, there were several broken pieces of furniture (ladder to one of the bunks and two fans in the balcony) which did not give a good first impression of this house. The worse part was seeing a rat in the house and following him/her to a hole inside the pantry!
