Water's Edge | Spacious Group Retreat with Lake Travis Views!

Designed for families and groups ready to slow down and soak it in, this expansive 5-bedroom Hill Country home on Lake Travis offers sweeping water views, a gourmet kitchen, and a game room that practically guarantees a good time. Perched above the lake with panoramic sightlines and generous indoor and outdoor gathering spaces, it's the kind of place where everyone spreads out comfortably, and no one wants to leave. Just minutes from Lake Travis marinas, Lakeway dining, and the natural beauty of the Texas Hill Country, this is your perfect base for a long weekend or a full week on the water.

Why Guests Love This Stay
Lake views from the living room: Floor-to-ceiling windows frame sweeping Lake Travis panoramas right from your couch, so the scenery is always part of the experience.
Room for everyone: Five bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms comfortably sleep up to 14 adults, with plenty of common space so the group never feels crowded.
Game room with ping pong: A dedicated game room gives the group a separate space to compete, unwind, and enjoy some time at the house after a day on the lake.
Expansive gathering spaces: The open-concept living and dining areas were made for big groups, with room to share meals, play cards, or just hang out together under soaring ceilings.
Fully equipped gourmet kitchen: A large, chef-quality kitchen with double ovens, a six-burner range, and plenty of counter space makes feeding a crowd easy and enjoyable.
Professionally managed: Stay Local Austin handles everything from arrival to departure, so your only job is to enjoy the stay!

The Space
From the moment you walk in, this home feels like it was designed for exactly this: a group of people who want to be together and have room to breathe. The great room commands attention with its vaulted ceilings, stone fireplace, and walls of windows opening onto unobstructed Lake Travis views. It's the kind of living room where everyone naturally gravitates, whether the plan is a movie night, a card game, or just watching the light shift over the water. The kitchen is a serious one, equipped to handle big dinners and lazy breakfasts alike. Double ovens, a full suite of stainless appliances, and a generous island give the home cooks in your group everything they need, while the adjacent dining area keeps everyone in the conversation. Downstairs, the game room is the unofficial social hub of the property, anchored by a ping pong table and plenty of seating. The five bedrooms are spread across the home to give everyone their own comfortable retreat, with thoughtful touches throughout that make a large house feel warm and welcoming.

Primary Bedroom: King Bed with Ensuite bath
Guest Bedroom 2: Queen Bed
Guest Bedroom 3: Queen Bed
Guest Bedroom 4: Full-Size Bed
Guest Bedroom 5: Full-Size Bed
Additional Bedroom: Bunk Bed (One Twin Mattress on Top and One Full Mattress on the Bottom)

Outdoor Living and Entertainment
The outdoor living spaces here are genuinely spectacular, and they are part of what makes this home worth every penny for a group. A large covered deck stretches along the back of the house, oriented directly toward the lake, and fitted with ample seating for the whole group. Morning coffee with a lake view, evening wine watching the sun dip behind the Hill Country ridgeline, this deck earns its keep from sunrise to well after dark.

Whether you are firing up the grill for a big group dinner or simply sitting outside to enjoy the quiet, the outdoor setup gives the home a resort-like quality that makes it hard to go back inside.

Location and Neighborhood
Nestled in the hills above Lake Travis on the northwest side of Austin, this neighborhood strikes a balance between peaceful seclusion and easy access to everything. The area has a relaxed Hill Country character, with rolling terrain, cedar and oak, and the kind of quiet that makes it easy to decompress.

When you are ready to venture out, the options are plentiful. Lake Travis boat rentals, kayak launches, and swimming areas are just minutes away. The lakeside town of Lakeway offers grocery stores, restaurants, and casual dining. Volente Beach and Hippie Hollow are both a short drive. And for anyone wanting a taste of Austin proper, South Congress, the Domain, and downtown Austin are all within 30 to 45 minutes.

Austin is best explored by car or rideshare. Most major attractions are within a short drive, and parking is available at the property.
