May 27, 2025 #### Great Location and good price. Loved the location. Please turn electricity on several hours prior to guest arrival. We had to find the breaker in the dark. One outside and one inside. It took several hours for the house to cool and more than 24 hours for the fridge. Note on fridge indicates basically this is the norm as it states can take up to 24 hours to cool. Patio cushions need to be replaced as they are worn out. As stated in previous reviews dryer does not work. ##### Reshee S. ### 6/10 Okay #### Austin C.

The house could use a nice deep clean. The dishes appeared dirty and we cleaned before use (dishwasher looks pretty gross). The water has a very strong sulphur smell. It made the entire house smell the first night. Microwave did not work during our stay and there was no propane for the grill. ##### Jordyn S.

Launched our canoe and paddled up and down the river on and offduring 4 day stay.Cooked on the grill and ate in the sunset. Played badminton with the children on the spacious fenced in grounds.House inside was clean but really needs some tender care. Beds were very clean and comfortable. Dinning room seating was only for four people needs two more chairs for a family to sit together. Kitchen fully equipped . Nothing flashy if you are looking for a glamorous house but comfortable if you are not fussy. Ac vents really need cleaning as do the windows. Stairs difficult with invalids or small children and need some repair . Living room could do with a couple of side lamps. It was a wonderful place but really needs a personal touch or you neepropertyrd ##### Jennifer D. Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Karen T.

Dec 12, 2023 #### Beautiful view with peaceful river Loved the scenery. Assistance was very quick with any questions. The only inconvenience were that the washer and garbage disposal smelled very very bad from the day we arrived but I bought a washer cleaner tablet from HEB to take care of that. Water was not working at all from when we checked in at 6pm until almost midnight when they sent over a kind maintenence man to check all the panels and well pumps. We both had to check multiple panels and lines at night to address the issue which was annoying since none of us could bathe, use the restroom or use the sink for almost 6 hours. It was finally fixed and glad we had hot water as soon as the pumps started working, could use a solid cleaning because the amount if pet hair on the window sills, under the bed and on and in-between the couches but overall it was a beautiful property with great peaceful scenery. ##### Ricardo V. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Eglae S. Oct 12, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Family vacation Loved how family friendly this property is. I especially loved that there are gates to keep the kids away from the water if you are busy grilling or have to make a quick trip up the stairs to the house. The concrete platform at the very bottom is awesome to take your lawn chair and fish. LOTS OF FISH! The house can use a little TLC but for our short stay it was perfect. Had everything we needed to cook all our meals. The AC is WONDERFUL! The cable isn’t the best, only cartoon network was available for the kids but we had our kids outside most of the time so they didn’t really care to watch tv. I do suggest if you have littles to pack them a life vest. The dam opens in the evening and the water runs at a pretty high speed. We enjoyed our stay so much we are already planning our next trip to this house. The outside of the property is what we fell in love with! So much room for activities lol. Lastly, communication with the property manager is excellent! We had a minor hiccup on arrival but it was fixed fairly quickly. We also needed more propane to grill out and they brought it to us right away. They were really good at checking in on us to make sure we weren’t in need of anything else. If you want to relax, fish and cook out then book this house! ##### Eglae S. Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Melissa F. Jul 16, 2020 Liked: Location Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### 2 star house at a 5 star location on the river The photo of the tree and rope swing should be removed as there is no tree, just a stump. When we arrived, the cleaning lady wasn't done so we waited in the heat for nearly 45 minutes and then she asked us to fix the leaky bathroom sink. You could tell she did a very quick clean while we waited as it was not very clean. A broom would have been handy to sweep up the dirt we brought in from the steps to the river. The vent in the master bedroom made noise every time the air conditioner kicked on so we had to adjust it each night before bed. The water was very hard. There was a softener, but no salt for it. There was a thick film on anything you washed, including yourself. Be sure to take your own water for drinking. (Another review mentioned this and it was very helpful.) We killed two giant roaches during our stay, one in my daughter's bed. A little TLC and this could be a great property. The location on the river is amazing! The giant boulders and rocks in the water were so cool! We took our own paddle boards and used the kayaks on site to explore the area daily. The water was very clear. My boys enjoyed fishing right from the concrete dock. I would definitely recommend this area, just not this property. ##### Melissa F. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2020 ### 4/10 Poor #### Julianne C. May 20, 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication, location Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy #### Run down and neglected First of all, the proper manager was very communicative and the handyman was also able to take care of things that were broken. The property in person is not as representative of the pictures. It’s in a nice part of the river. Big lot with pretty trees. The terraces were definitely a selling point when I booked the property. Other reviews said it was older and not updated but clean. I can handle older as long as it’s clean. When we pulled up, the house was covered in spider webs and debris. The outside was a wreck with broken furniture, ripped and discolored cushions, goose droppings all around. The terrace which looked so nice in the pictures had debris and not set up at all. The lounges were broken, the umbrella was broken, the chimney was broken, the table was broken. There had been storms but this debris was piled up from neglect and had been there for quite a while. The whole exterior of the house is covered in spider webs and debris stuck in the webs. The windows were dirty. Inside didn’t get much better. The bar top was broken, blinds were broken, the ceiling fan blades were hanging down, the baseboards, cabinets and walls had dirt and grime all over them, the shower curtains had mold, the inside windows had bugs and webs in them, remotes had dead batteries, the tv/dvd combo the dvd player would not work, the other tv would not come on and the return air filter was filthy. The handyman did come fix several things but the condition was pure neglect. ##### Julianne C.

If you're looking for a house that is aesthetically pleasing, this is not it. However, if you're searching for a lake house where you can have a wonderful time with your family, you’ve found it. We have an overall mixed review about this house. Our family had the best time here and it was just what we need to get away and unplug. But there are a few things that could have been improved on. \*\*Positives:\*\* The location is fantastic, offering a perfect view of the river. It's a great spot for fishing and swimming. The outdoor space by the river was wonderful, providing a great spot to sit, have coffee, play games, or visit with family and friends. We spent the majority of our time outside, enjoying the beautiful surroundings. The beds were comfortable, and there were plenty of towels. And the A/C works GREAT!! \*\*Negatives:\*\* The inside is a typical lake house with nothing fancy, offering just the basic necessities. The pictures need to be updated as the tree swing outside is no longer there and the kids were looking forward to it. The patio umbrella is broken and not useable. It would have been nice for the extra shade. The patio space needs to be swept and cleaned a bit. The inside REALLY needs a deep cleaning from the baseboards to the blinds. The dishwasher was filthy and did not get dishes clean so we had to hand wash dishes. And the microwave stopped working on our first full day. There were dead bugs and cobwebs in the window sills and corners and the floor didn’t appear to have been mopped. There is no Wi-Fi. The dining table needs a few more chairs, and it would have been nice to have a few extra chairs in the living room. The outside of the house also needs a good cleaning and pressure washing. Some of the steps need to be fixed for safety reasons. There aren’t screens on the windows and we found several windows left unlocked. The house is definitely not maintained very well and seems like they just clean good enough for the next guest and that’s it. If this house had a deep cleaning between each guest we would definitely stay here again. ##### Jennipher C. ### 6/10 Okay #### amanda j. Jun 19, 2020 Liked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Great location; good for dogs; furnishings could be better This is a great location near the buchanan dam and away from open water, meaning your kids and dogs can swim and paddle board safely. Nice fenced in yard allows you to put the dogs in the yard and go out on the river without fear of them following you. The house would be more correctly characterized as a cabin. With a few improvements it could be amazing. Missing some basic items like trash cans in the bathrooms, beach towels and bath mat. Dishes are very cheap and all seemed to have a film on them. Not sure if that was because the dishwasher needed service (was backing up into sink) or because of the hard water. The water tastes terrible so you should bring bottled water. Chimeneas are advertised, but there is no firewood. Downstairs fridge and bathroom were both very dirty. Deck needed to be cleaned so we used the blower and cleaned it. This is my biggest complaint, as it literally only takes 10 minutes but if it's not done regularly dirt builds up on the steps and then becomes mud. This creates a slip and fall danger. I recently had knee surgery so this was a big concern for my family. In addition, the back is not well-lighted. Wiith the steps leading from the dock to the house, it can be scary at night. We bought some tiki torches from the dollar store to help provide more light. Bring a flash light or lanterns! Overall, we had a great time, but I felt like I need to bring or purchase my whole house/kitchen to make it workable. For the price I paid, I expected more of a turn key experience. I'd also add that for weeks prior to my stay I tried to get in touch with property management to see about extending my stay, but each time I called had hold times of over 2 hours. We had to call the property management company to come out and help with the grill while there, and they came out fairly quickly. Definitely still worth going as the location and outdoor area are great, but just be prepared to bring lots of supplies. If you have a jet ski or small boat, you could bring it and launch it nearby and then park at the dock. ##### amanda j. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2020 ### 6/10 Okay #### Reshee S.

Sep 21, 2023 #### Nice Weekend Getaway The location on the Colorado River was nice because it was quiet with little or no boat and jet ski traffic due to the rocks in the river. The patio on the River was nice to sit at. ##### Glenn W. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Iris M. Oct 31, 2022 #### Great for family and Fun We had our all 4 boys and 2 dogs up on the river over the Father day weekend. The river is clam from about 4pm - 7am (the dam is closed over night) otherwise it is running about 4 mph. you can not swim in it at that speed. Great other wise. The home is small and has "funny" tasting water. Bring your own water. The beds are comfy. The washer is a front load and is smelly. great location, great river, bring your own water. ##### Iris M.

Everything we needed was at the river house. We appreciate how clean it was and felt great putting two babies on the floor immediately. The waterfront decks are wonderful. Great relaxing family vacay. Only downside, we had to pack up and come home. ##### Kristi S.

We had a blast on the Kayaks and my big fur baby felt right at home and we didn’t have to worry about him getting loose in the amazing fenced in yard. We will definitely be back! ##### Angela W. ### 10/10 Excellent #### William K., Duncanville, TX Jan 1, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### River House, Colorado River, Texas Thank you so much for the opportunity to stay at your lake home for the Christmas Holiday. We thoroughly enjoyed the peace and quiet. Just what we needed to get away from the busy city life. We spent most of our time relaxing on the incredible patio and just taking in the view and the sight and sounds of the ducks and geese flying in. It was early to rise to watch the sun come up and drink our coffee on the patio. Our evenings were spent on the patio watching the sun set. Gorgeous. Our dog had a blast being able to run around freely in the fenced yard. Again, thank you. ##### William K. Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brandi S.

Really appreciated the fenced in yard, quiet location and wonderful views. Would definitely stay here again. ##### Brandi S.

We had 4 grandsons (11 to 3) and their parents that really enjoyed the kayaking and fishing. A half day at Inks Lake State Park was easy to get to and was great fun. The lower level deck near the lake was awesome for adults after kids were in bed. Recommendations: The house needed more glasses, cups and plates to accommodate 7 people. Outside lighting on walkways and stairs didn’t function. That is a safety issue. Otherwise the house was really good for our extended family and we would come again. ##### John B.
