Beautiful, quiet, spacious, comfortable and fun home with LAKE & RIVER access!

**READ EACH PHOTO REMARKS FOR MORE DETAILS**

The open water here is peaceful, clear and beautiful. This is a quality home located on a quiet section of the Llano Arm of Lake LBJ in Kingsland, Texas. With views of Packsaddle Mountain and the Hill Country over the calm, quite and constant level waters of Lake LBJ, you’ll find beauty in every day with any weather. Set on a large grassy lot, this beautiful and comfortable home sits at the meeting point of Lake LBJ and Llano River. With lake activities in one direction and the adventures and beauty of the river in the other, there is something for everyone. The water level at the dock is usually about 2-3 feet deep. The sandy bottom channel can get as high as 5ft for a great swimming hole, with shallow sandy landing area great for relaxing. With a mostly soft sandy bottom, playing, swimming wading, and all activities are easy on the eyes and the feet. Even though the normal water level is constant, the sandy channels vary and can shift a little after big rains, but rarely does it get over 5 ft to go all the way to the other side where there is a large Sandy Beach area. This is great for running around with kids, picnicking or hiking up river. Just about 1 ½ -2 miles up river is an area known as “The Slab”. A public but largely unknown park like setting of granite slabs of rock which form rapids, slides and swimming holes. If you don’t want to hike up, you can drive to the parking area just up the street. When the current is stronger, the ultra adventurous can start at The Slab and venture down the calm Llano River on floats until you arrive back at the Lake House.

Prefer the deep waters? Head the other direction. Kayaks and Canoes can take in you in either direction for deeper swimming or fishing options. Up river has depths varying from 1-7ft! Down the lake side gets deeper as you go until it reaches 5-6 ft in areas about 100-200 yards from our dock. Another 100 yards or so and it becomes 10-15+ feet as you enter the main part of Lake LBJ. (See **Boats** at end) There are three kayaks, a canoe provided at no additional charge.

Or, if you're like most of our guest, you can just enjoy the peaceful and quiet waters right in front of the home. From the moment you wake with your coffee, to the frequent dips in fresh, boat free waters for a dip or float, to the amazing sunsets over the hill country behind...you will quickly embrace having this open water view all day long!

While the home is in a quiet and peaceful area, all the modern necessities are there and are your local shops, restaurants and the HEB Grocery are just 4 miles away. There is also a full 18 hole golf course (Lighthouse) just 2 miles up the road and another (Legends) just 5 miles

**Bunk Room is 4th bed and sleeps up to 6 w/ it's own full bathroom
**There is a half bath near the kitchen
**Full bath in main hallway between all bedroom doors
**Full bath in Primary bedroom

River Oaks Lake House is conveniently located in central Texas about 60 minutes northwest of Austin, 90 minutes north of San Antonio.

***BOATS***Our property is in the sand bar of the Llano River arm of Lake LBJ. The water is shallow. If you are planning on bringing or renting a boat, be aware that most boats will not reach the dock. Feel free to ask questions if you have concerns. We've pulled in and seen many pontoons, flat fishing boats, and jet skis make it to our dock in the past. But, the historic 2018 Flood still has Mother Nature making adjustments. It continues to change but is still consistently too shallow for boat (motor) traffic of any kind.

I have a group of old high school friends now in our 50's who have stayed at this property several years. The house is in great shape. The rooms are always very clean. The kitchen has plenty of items to cook large meals. The view of the river is excellent. We plan to stay here again next year.

It's all about the Beautiful Backyard with Lake View

Our family stayed here this past week, and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The home is large enough and comfortable enough for a large family, well equipped, great indoor and outdoor space, quiet area. So peaceful to look at the river, sandbar and hills in the background. Nice big backyard for playtime and other activities.

Great Stay on Lake LBJ

This was a great property right on the Llano arm of lake LBJ. The kitchen was well supplied. Quiet neighborhood. The fishing off the dock was surprisingly good. Nothing big but fun for the grandkids. They also really enjoyed the recently added game room. Chad and Gaby were very attentive and responsive.

We had a wonderful time! The house is well laid out with plenty of room for everyone. We loved sitting on the back porch as much as possible. The view is beautiful and the yard and dock are great for playing, swimming and kayaking/canoeing. We found everything we needed in the kitchen. The new game room is huge and great for watching tv together. We played lots of ping pong too! Great week and the hosts were very responsive and accommodating!

Beautiful Property . . .

We had an amazing stay at this property. It was very clean and was just as depicted in the pictures. The ages of our family ranged from 4 to 86, and there was something for everyone. The kids loved fishing from the bank and they caught a lot of fish. The kayaks and canoe were a big hit as well. My favorite parts were drinking coffee out on the spacious deck and watching the beautiful sunsets each evening. The hosts were very responsive and accommodating. We will definitely be back!

Excellent Getaway for Dads

We have 8 men who are friends from high school in the late 80's. We make an annual trip to hang out and catch-up. This home was perfect for us for a second year in a row. We really renjoy sitting in the river out in front of the house. We take a popup shade tent and chairs and just sit and visit all day. We use the canoe and kayaks to take our stuff across to the more shallow part of the river. It's perfect. The house is fantastic and we fit easily. We also cook quite a lot. The home has all the cooking utensils we need including a large outdoor griddle on the patio. The owner has been super helpful and responsive each year. This year we had a nice surprise with the new garage addition which had a large sectional, very large tv and a ping pong table. We couldn't ask for a better place.

What a fun place!

This property was great for our family of 5 adults and 4 boys ages 2-9. The game room was an absolute hit with everyone. (do need to replace the ping pong balls) The video game consoles were great for all! Access to the river was easy, and there were many places for the littlest ones to play and swim safely once we got them across the river. It wasn't too deep for adults, but the littles needed help navigating. We took them across on tubes and in the canoe. The older boys learned to kayak with the kayaks left for us on-site and they had the best time. We had taken inner tubes and used them some, but the kayaks were by far more fun. The bedrooms and bathrooms were the perfect size for our needs and having the basement bunk space with its own bathroom and outdoor access was perfect. Kitchen was well-equipped and roomy, but we mostly cooked outside on the HUGE Blackstone grill. It was wonderful. You will not be disappointed if you stay here, if you are looking for clean and roomy accommodations with river access and a beautiful and welcoming yard and patio spaces. Chad and Gaby were very communicative and made sure we had everything we needed. A great weekend for us and we hope to one day visit again.

This was a very comfortable house with plenty of room for our family of 13! We unfortunately got there right after the Texas floods, so we were only able to enjoy the river one day. When the water receded we went down to the beach area and played in the river. The kids loved it!

Family Weekend

We are six related adults (ages 27 to 63) wanting to connect during a 2-night stay. There was laughter, river time, and lots of food. The property is beautiful, we made several memories, saw a bald eagle, an otter, and lots of other Hill Country widlife. We ate 4 of our 5 meals on the covered deck enjoying the awesome weather and each other's company. We played ping pong, video games, corn hole, frisbee, and went up the river in the provided canoe and kayaks. We really enjoyed our time together and plan on returning in the future..

Great family vaca

Really enjoyed our time at your home. It was huge! 3 comfortable bedrooms upstairs with a room for the kids downstairs which they loved.The game room was such an added bonus for us too.Prior to our arrival, a huge rainstorm occurred which left leaves & small limbs in the beautiful yard but after some cleanup it certainly didn’t hamper our time there.The rain actually was welcomed as the river was up & allowed kayak trips down from the “slab” several days along with floating/ swimming right off the water deck area.We thoroughly enjoyed the deck for morning coffee & meals.Host responded to all our questions quickly & was helpful with suggestions.Take advantage of this family perfect home!
