The condo was immaculate with 2 spacious bedrooms and baths...one of the bathrooms was humongous. With giant shower stall...double sinks and a BIG jet tub...AND a massive walk in closet!! Couldnt ask for anything more...fully equipped kitchen and washer dryer...We enjoyed hanging out on the comfy patio furniture on our private balcony and watching deer running around everywhere. Truly, one of the BEST vacations we have ever had. ❤️ ##### Arif This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 6/10 Okay #### David C. Jun 18, 2024 #### Almost nice So this is a nice place but inside pool was closed outside pools are so hot due to no shade all afternoon that it’s like swimming in a hot tub. Our unit was nice if you didn’t look too close cob webs on the roof, paint peeling around the bathroom vent AC didn’t work well and took a full day to get cool. The extra AC unit in the Master pops the breaker and and was not attached to the outside vent so hot air was coming in. I fixed that but with a little effort this place could be nicer. Ataman has leather peeling off. ##### David C. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Michael L. Jun 16, 2022 #### Great location Our stay was pleasant. Steven the host was very kind and accommodating. He even extended our check out time to 12 pm. The unit was clean and well stocked. However there were a couple of things that weren’t awesome. The a/c needs work. It took a very long time to cool. But eventually did. The host tried to arrange repair twice but had cancellations each time. The ceiling fan in the living room wouldn’t move very fast, which was important since the a/c was struggling. But there were box fans in the closets so that helped a lot. The unit needs some updates for sure for the hefty rental price. $750 for two nights! But overall the stay was good. ##### Michael L.

Well stocked kitchen. WiFi worked well. I didn't realize how low the water was around and in Lake Travis - we had to drive down the road a bit to be able to launch jetskis. ##### Adam This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dericka Mar 15, 2022 #### Pleasant Stay My family and I enjoyed our stay.

The condo was very clean and was stocked with everything we needed for our stay. The pool area was nice and relaxing. The views of the lake were beautiful and we especially enjoyed seeing all of the deer. The location of the condo was near a town with stores and restaurants. We also did the nearby winery. The hosts were very personable and answered any questions before and during our stay. We are already talking about coming back next summer with our husbands and the boat!

The place lived up to the pictures, exactly! The nature surrounding was beautiful and great atmosphere along with a fishing paradise. Plenty of spots to fish from with an abundant amount of giant fish. Our room was spacious and the jacuzzi tub in the master was a bonus! Our children enjoyed the double beds in their room, the balcony and feeding the deers in the evening time. We walked in with a snack bowl and beverages, which made us feel so welcomed. They also had a binder with useful information, restaurants nearby as well as boat/ski rentals that were in the area. Super host is an understatement, the hosts went above and beyond to ensure the room was clean and ready to go, including pots/pans, coffee, cooking utensils, cups, etc.. Washer/ Dryer in the unit helped with keeping our clothes clean and dry. I would highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a beautiful getaway without traveling too far. We will for sure be coming back. Thank you for having us! ##### Isaac ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carlos A. Jan 3, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Very pleased overall The directions were very helpful. Loved the quietness of the complex. Very pretty. Convenience and location of parking space to the elevator and condo was perfect. Was super pleased with the cleanliness of the condo. Ample bedding, towels, pillows, and make up remover clothes!we enjoyed the snacks left for us. Everything we needed was there, we just needed to bring food. Living room furniture was rough, but we had been informed that the new furniture hadn’t come in yet. Just some things we noted that may need some attention soon, a little paint, microwave , sheers needed in living room, and blinds don’t completely close in the master bed room. That being said, we were very pleased with the unit and our stay. Pet peeve: the control box for the front door lock, is super bright at night and strobes! We just tossed a wash cloth over it. Also would be helpful toadd a “Tip Sheet” in your Welcome book, explaining how to use all the remotes and TV. ##### Carlos A.

It was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed to recharge after months in of staring at the same walls. The pools and exercise room were open and everyone was practicing social distancing and wearing masks - we felt very safe while there and will definitely be back. ### 6/10 Okay #### Neil Jul 7, 2024 ##### Neil Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Renaissance Austin Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Renaissance-Austin-Hotel.h8075.Hotel-Information) > > [Club Wyndham Austin](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Club-Wyndham-Austin.h20597750.Hotel-Information) > > [Austin Marriott Downtown](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Austin-Marriott-Downtown.h45866780.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Americas-Houston](https://www.expedia.ca/Houston-Hotels-Hilton-Americas-Houston.h976144.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Austin](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Fairmont-Austin.h18156638.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott Marquis Houston](https://www.expedia.ca/Houston-Hotels-Marriott-Marquis-Houston.h14986044.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hyatt San Antonio River Walk](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Antonio-Hotels-Grand-Hyatt-San-Antonio-River-Walk.h1848212.Hotel-Information) > > [Omni Barton Creek Resort & Spa Austin](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Omni-Barton-Creek-Resort-Spa.h687230.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt House Austin/Downtown](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Hyatt-House-AustinDowntown.h17061159.Hotel-Information) > > [Austin Proper Hotel, a Member of Design Hotels](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Austin-Proper-Hotel.h33918361.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott Austin](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Austin.h8778760.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Austin](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Hilton-Austin.h976145.Hotel-Information) > > [Tommie Austin, part of Jdv by Hyatt](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Tommie-Austin.h67403449.Hotel-Information) > > [The LINE Austin](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-The-LINE-Austin.h23193716.Hotel-Information) > > [Omni Dallas Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-Omni-Dallas-Hotel.h4488581.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Place Austin Downtown](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Hyatt-Place-Austin-Downtown.h5437747.Hotel-Information) > > [The Woodlands Resort, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Conroe-Hotels-The-Woodlands-Resort.h25794.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Austin](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Austin.h21746.Hotel-Information) > > [ Hilton Anatole](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-Hilton-Anatole.h22945.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Austin -Town Lake by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Austin-Town-Lake.h9618.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express & Suites Austin Downtown - University by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Suites-Austin-Downtown-University.h12302973.Hotel-Information) > > [Omni Austin Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Omni-Austin-Hotel.h8540.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel ZaZa Austin](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Hotel-ZaZa-Austin.h38505624.Hotel-Information) > > [Embassy Suites by Hilton Austin Downtown South Congress](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Embassy-Suites-By-Hilton-Austin-Downtown-South-Congress.h17694.Hotel-Information) > > [Aiden Austin City Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Aiden-By-Best-Western-Austin-City-Hotel.h430516.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Van Zandt](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Hotel-Van-Zandt.h10269315.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Dallas](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-Fairmont-Dallas.h18280.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Dallas Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-Sheraton-Dallas-Hotel.h43540.Hotel-Information) > > [Downright Austin, A Renaissance Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Downright-Austin.h7518.Hotel-Information)
