About this property

Million Dollar Open-Water View on Lakefront with 2-Story Dock

This is an elevated beach house...on the point of a point on the lake...and (we believe) is the highest open-water view on this section of the lake. Full home office (dock, dual monitors, wireless mouse & keyboard, printer) allows you to work remotely (but please don't). We are premier hosts and have all 10-star reviews.

$100 surcharge for 2-night rentals will be reflected in your edited reservation. $150 surcharge to use our boatlift or double PWC lift for the duration of your stay.

Lake home with 3 bedrooms & 2 baths, open floor plan perfect for hanging out with friends and family! Panoramic, gorgeous views from the oversized (newly improved) 2-story deck (shade lower, sun upper). Master (queen bed) with bath (shower) and two guest bedrooms (queen bed in one, full/twin and twin/twin bunks in the other) share the second bath (tub/shower).

Ground-level features a screened-in porch with ceiling fans. Two large grassy areas with a 140-foot bulkhead water frontage for fishing and swimming. Firepits top (house level) and bottom (lakeside) with firewood provided. Two kayaks and a canoe, with life-preservers for adults and older kids (you will need your own for toddlers/infants). Rods and reels for amateurs (pros would be disappointed, so bring your own). Amazing lighting throughout the home, screen room and on the grounds.

The boat dock has a large shaded lower area for fishing and a giant upper-deck for sun and partying. The boat lift is electric and can handle a regular-sized boat up to a pontoon boat (5K lbs). Electric double PWC lift, too. If you need either lift, please advise in your reservation or inquiry.

The water level at our bulkhead is ~ 3 ft deep, making it a nice area to float with the young ones. Since you cannot see the bottom and there is no lifeguard, no diving and swim at your own risk. Watch the little ones closely, as the perimeter fence does not block waterline access.

Dog friendly with a fenced-in yard for a $25 per night, PER DOG fee up to 2 dogs (VRBO's quote to be manually adjusted if you have more than one dog). Dogs are not to be left alone on the property and are not permitted on beds or furniture, please. IF YOU ARE BRINGING PETS PLEASE LET ME KNOW TYPE(s) OF PET, NUMBER OF PETS AND THEIR WEIGHTS IN YOUR RESERVATION REQUEST. There is no fence preventing an old, clumsy, or careless pet from falling in the water over the bulkhead or dock and there is no way for an animal to get out on their own - so please watch them when loose.

This is a non-party, non-event, non-smoking property (smoking outside or on the deck is fine provided you leave no trace) but a great and quiet place for a small group of friends or family to get away from it all where we hope you'll treat our property like you would your own. Security cameras monitor the portico (2), deck (1), and boathouse (2). For privacy, guests may obscure/block the deck camera during their stay.

We are in a gated community with minimal traffic -- safe for kids to ride bikes with helmets -- and a fantastic community pool. Your name will be left with the ranger at the gate for initial entry and we have a key card for your continuing access during your stay. Nice getaway, only a little more than an hour from Houston.

REFUNDS: We've selected VRBO's most flexible refund policy available (full refund 14 days prior and 50% refund if canceled 7 days prior)...but we go EVEN FURTHER BY REFUNDING THE FULL AMOUNT (you must cancel by contacting us first) if we can book your canceled stay with someone else at or near the same rates.

*** Once you've booked through VRBO and return for another stay (and you will), book direct with us for an additional 15-20% total discount off VRBO's TOTAL BOOKING COSTS ***

See PDF rental agreement at Step 2 of 3 (Review rules & policies) when booking. It'll also be emailed with acceptance of your booking request. OUR EMAIL AND PHONE NUMBERS ARE INCLUDED IN THE AGREEMENT IF YOU'D LIKE TO COMMUNICATE PRIOR TO BOOKING.

Highly Recommend
Exactly as pictured. Lots of fishing area to spread out. Screened in area is a huge plus. Very pet friendly with a gate blocking stairs to the front and fully fenced. Double garage doors allow easy access when unloading chairs and coolers into the screened in area and back yard.

We enjoyed this little jewel on the water! Great views, clean and slept our crew easily. We came in for a wedding, so we didn’t get to enjoy all the lake and house had to offer.

Fall Break
We had a FABULOUS stay, everything was absolutely perfect. The neighborhood is gated & very quiet. The owner was a pleasure to communicate with and very responsive. They went above & beyond to ensure we enjoyed our time in their home. The house is beautiful and has everything you need. The waterfront location is amazing. We hope to return soon. This is by far the best VRBO experience my family has had.

Outstanding Weekend Getaway
This was an excellent Lake House to stay at. The owner was very friendly And any questions or concerns I had he responded in a quick manner. Me and my wife will definitely rent again. I would recommend this property and give it a great review. Everything in the description was just as it was described. Hopefully next time we stay we don't get rained in most the time however it was still a very enjoyable relaxing stay. I give this rental property five stars.

Very large size double dock for relaxing & fishing. Wish we could stay for a couple more days but had to leave due to work.

Great Home with Beautiful Views
We really enjoyed our stay. The drought had made the lake several feet low but we made the best of it by using the sand as a beach for our dogs to stroll on and put a couple chairs near the shoreline to do some fishing. The house has everything you'll need for your stay and a safe/friendly gated neighborhood. Steve (owner) is great and adds a personal touch to the stay - very good communication and response time. Deck views of the lake are phenomenal and very quiet neighbors.

Excellent House and Location
We have several years experience in staying in short term vacation rental homes. This is definitely among the very best. Certainly the location and view are superb. The house is very well equipped in every way and made our four day stay quite enjoyable in spite of the high ambient temperature and low lake level. Nothing that the owner could have done could have made it better. He took the initiative to contact us to ensure that our experience was meeting expectations. We would definitely stay here again.

Perfect getaway
We came to visit for a quick relaxing weekend… and this place did not disappoint! My kids had a blast fishing on the pier and playing ping pong on the screened-in porch. The owners were very responsive anytime I had a question. We are already planning a trip back for the fall! Highly recommend…. Very clean and tidy. Perfect yard for our small dog to play!

Best Memorial Day getaway with family
We had everything we needed for our 5 night stay, kids loved the dock and easy access to the water. We brought our jetskis, kids loved the rope and lilypad. Kitchen was fully stocked and plenty of clean towels, we did utilize the washer/dryer as well. Thanks for a wonderful experience! I'm sure we will be back in the future!

Spring Break Lake Getaway
My family and I had a wonderful time at Mr. Lowenstein's property. It was just what we needed for a last minute spring break trip. Unfortunately, the weather is not what we had in mind making it hard to enjoy all of the amenities. Luckily, we were able to spend most of our time in the downstairs enclosed patio area where we were able to enjoy time as a family playing corn hole and pingpong. We had two nights of smores and bonfires and there were several logs for us to use and everything we needed to get a fire started. We have not had the same resources available at other properties that included a fire pit. My only complaint is that the enclosed patio could have been a bit cleaner (dead bugs, outside debris) and it would have been great to have had a table in that area. We had several meals in the surrounding local restaurants and enjoyed each one. We were able to go out on St. Patrick's Day and have fun at the Bullet Grill House. Contacting Mr. Lowenstein was easy and he was very friendly when I had questions even though he was in Costa Rica. I would absolutely go back during the summer to enjoy the rest of the amenities.

Wonderful weekend getaway
My husband and I stayed here for 3 nights at the end of February and had a wonderful time. The place was perfect for us. The kitchen had everything we needed and the house was very comfortable. We loved having the ability to use the kayaks and canoe as well as the fishing gear. The view is beautiful and was everything we wanted for a relaxing weekend. Steve was a wonderful host and was great with communicating and very welcoming. Would highly recommend to friends and family and anyone looking for a place to enjoy being at the lake! Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Best Thanksgiving in years!
Rented this property planning to take our boat, enjoy the family and relax. The weather didn't cooperate so we left the boat at home and didn't even miss it! The view is amazing and the house is clean and welcoming. It's fully stocked with anything you could wish for plus things you didn't even know you wanted (an enormous Hershey bar anyone?). Steve was friendly and instantly available if we had a question. The best part was relaxing in the evening around the fire pit, telling lies...ahem...stories. Honestly, I happily reccommend this house to anyone.
