Lake Buchanan Get-Away

We stayed for a long week-end in January 2006 with our family from Scotland. We had a blast playing games, fishing and just spending some down time with them. It is unusual to find such home comforts in rented houses, but we sure found it here, the beds were so comfortable. We will be back some time in the summer to use the pool. -- Dougan Clan, Round Rock

We enjoyed our stay at the lake immensely! What a nice place to get away and relax! It is a great location, not too far from Austin and other small towns, yet you feel as if you've left Texas and gone on a vacation far away! Very refreshing. The view of the lake is really gorgeous and, of course, the pool is such a nice amenity. The house itself is so homey and comfortable, too. All in all, I would totally recommend this little getaway spot for anyone interested in a little rest and relaxation!

The lakehouse view is absolutely beautiful!! We spent a weekend and felt like we had been on vacation for a month! The house design is very comfortable, the pool wonderful (it even has a diving board!) and the lake right at your back yard. The sunsets are gorgeous! A great place to escape your hectic eveyday life.

It was just so nice. When you go away
somewhere you hope to be able to relax and enjoy your time off, most of the time that isn't the case. In this case it was. And, there were six children in the mix. We swam, we played games, we laughed, we talked. The time went by much too fast. The view is beautiful and the sound of the water is very calming; day and night.
It was a great escape! -- Grace and kids, Georgetown, TX

We've stayed at cabins on the lake but a cabin this is not. It is a full size house with all the accomodations. It is peaceful and serene with a great view. The lake is never congested with boats. December is a great time to go. Burnet is full of feastivities. If it's not too cold, you can sit in the lounge chairs on the back lawn and watch shooting stars. There is an observatory a few miles up the road where you can get a close up look at the stars. There is even a place close by that takes tours up the lake to view the eagles in their winter nesting grounds. This is a goldmine getaway retreat. We'll be back. -- Stu and Gwen

We had such a relaxing stay at this property! The lake was beautiful from our reclined chairs in the back yard. What I really liked is that I'm not a lake-swimmer, but I was still able to cool off because of the pool! At the end of our stay, we were about to leave when the kids discovered the beach a few feet down from the back lawn. So we pulled our chairs over there, along with some wine and snacks, and spent another two hours under the shade of a tree while the kids played in the sand and shallow waves.

WOW...what a view. It began as we pulled into the driveway. Thanks for allowing us the time to stay there. It was a much needed weekend full of relaxation and a great time. It was home away from home (minus the TV, Computer, etc.:)

Thanks for a great weekend! We celebrated our son's
4th birthday party with family at "Flachazo." He spent
the weekend hunted for buried treasure -- so we
actually buried something for him to find on the
beachy part. You have a wonderful get-away. Thanks
for opening it to us. We'll be back!
