Not Exactly As Advertised

My biggest and first complaint is that the place reeked of dirty wet dog. I understand that the property is pet friendly which is much appreciated as I am a dog owner however the smell should not hit you as soon as you open the front door. I think some of the key contributors to that is the fact that it doesn't appear that the property is cleaned properly or professionally between guests. In order to feel comfortable we had to clean the bathroom and the floors before we could semi-comfortably settled in. Side note my boyfriend had to unclog and fix the vaccum in order to even properly vacuum the floors which were covered dirt and dog hair. Additionally, the central A/C wasn't operable instead there was portable A/C unit with a large hose that was fed through the only window in the unit. This caused the blinds/window not to be able to close which left us with having to put a beach towel up in order to have privacy from those walking by outside. The humidity was so high in the unit that the bath towels would not dry between showering in the morning leaving all day coming back late at night and then showering again. Lastly there were multiple reviews going back about 2yrs complaining about the bed/mattress needing to be replaced and based on my stay that has yet to be addressed. The photos of the property do reflect the furniture in the unit but definitely do not showcase their current conditions.

Nice little spot

Had to come down for a funeral with the hubby. Great little spot, very easy navigation, very quiet and peaceful. Clean and well organized, with extras! The ONLY complaints paint is the bed. It DOES sink in the middle really bad. (I sleep on top of him mostly anyway, but it did create discomfort. Just lift the mattress and throw the extra bed pillows under, fixed it right up. Would stay here again for sure. Very sweet owners.

We had a GREAT time!!!

I was VERY sad or even disappointed about the lake. It was shocking how low even nonexistent the lake was on one side. We had no access to the lake at all we were newlyweds, so we had a great time being together. The people were amazing even going into town. Everyone in town was so beautiful and warm and welcoming. Really the bed situation was really the worst of it all the bed really needs to be replaced in our unit absolutely, other than that, we had a great time really Quaint and cozy, and if you have an electric vehicle forget about charging your vehicle. We could not charge ours. Our host Peggy Carpenter truly amazing, her communication was awesome she went above and beyond to try to make our stay super. We just loved her!

Scenic location and lovely condo

The room was clean and nicely decorated. The complex was beautiful with scenic views. The bed is uncomfortable and sinks in the middle. It is a studio and not a 1 bedroom.

The best Villa

The resort was everything we expected and more. The deer were out every. Very safe neighborhood to run and walk the dog and baby The condo was clean with everything we needed. She even provided treats upon arrival. The laundry room was directly across from our room. She responded to any questions we had very promptly. We will definitely be staying again

The property and area were nice, but the bed was horrible to sleep on. We ended up leaving that same night we got there because of it. Found a different hotel to stay at. I wish I could get my refund since we didnt even stay at all.

Beautiful and relaxing getaway!

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Island. This condo is interior facing but looks on to a gorgeous courtyard. The condo was just big enough for us and our 2 Yorkies- who loved their walks around the grounds! The only drawback was the mattress- it sank down on the middle so much that my husband had to sleep on the couch pullout. If they could upgrade the bed then this condo would be perfect.

Cozy home away from home

Peggy was a wonderful host. Her property is warm and inviting. She provided everything one could possibly need during the stay. She responded quickly to any of our questions and really made us feel at home. During our month long stay we enjoyed the pools and resort, as well as the surrounding area. Definitely would stay again.

Condo quality

The size, amenities, and value of this property were good but was detracked by a very poor bed that was sunken in the middle and badly in need of replacement. Unless this mattress is replaced, I would not consider staying in this unit again.

Lovely, Relaxing Place To Stay!

We had a lovely stay at Highland Lakes Estates. The Island on Lake Travis is a wonderful community. The condo was small but so well laid out and appointed it had everything we needed and then some! Peggy added so many thoughtful extras and attention to detail, it was the perfect weekend for us! She was also a helpful and quick communicator. As a bonus, there is a restaurant on site that we did not expect! We would definitely stay again!

Amazing island

Most people in Texas don't even know about this place! It's truly amazing. The place is a studio, has more than you need for enjoying the resort and the surrounding area, and the owners are sweet you can tell by the decor and messages, it's definitely their families hang out which gives it a "home" feeling that made us really comfortable and have cute little touches throughout. We almost didn't choose it because of a review about their noisy air conditioning, but seriously, it's a secondary unit they use to maintain humidity, and it works wonderfully, and surprise surprise, if it's keeping you up at night, ya just go turn it off people. The real air conditioner is just fine and no louder than a typical apartment AC. I'd definitely recommend this adorable spot, and the island itself is magical. The tame deer, the architecture, pools, proximity to markets and Jonestown; you'll love it.

Great Location

THis is an efficiency without a balcony or water view. That being said the condos are very nice and a great spot on Lake Travis. The space had everything we needed and the owner throws in some wine! For 2 people it was fine and very reasonable since we brought a dog.
