Vacation Rental Description

Located on the north shore of Canyon Lake, half-way between San Antonio and Austin in the beautiful 
Texas hill country, there is a special place waiting for you, your family and friends.

The five bedrooms sleep twenty-plus guests (assuming families with kids who sleep on upper bunks). 
The pool and adjacent shaded patio are perfect for swimming and lounging, and the back yard provides 
acres of play area for football, baseball, volleyball or even golf. The lakefront is NOT developed 
(no private docks are allowed on Canyon Lake)… it’s a great place for walks along the shoreline.

The house has over 4,000 sq ft, all on one level. The arches out front and Saltillo tile in the 
entry, living room and kitchen give the house something of a “Mexican Hacienda” atmosphere.

The entry leads directly to the main living/dining/party room (20 x 36 feet, with a 12 foot 
ceiling), which has floor-to-ceiling glass on the lake side, providing spectacular lake views. 
Outside the main room there is a 10 x 40 foot deck overlooking the pool, lake and the sunsets.

The master bedroom (20 x 20 feet, with a 12 foot beam ceiling and a new dark green tile floor) has 
one king size bed, a private bath, a walk-in closet and a Satellite TV/DVD/CD/VCR/stereo.

All the other rooms are carpeted. Three bedrooms each have two bunk beds, with a lower double bed 
and an upper single bed. They range in size from 11 x 17 (with a 12’ beam ceiling) to 16 x 19, and 
are usually the kids’ favorites. One has beautiful lake views and an outside door to a small private 
lake-view deck, and one has a TV/DVD/CD/VCR/stereo.

The rear bedroom (15 x 24) has one king-size bed, a TV/DVD/CD/VCR/stereo and an outside entrance 
leading to the driveway down to the lake.

In the center of the three rear bedrooms there is a large game room (21 x 22, with a 12’ beam 
ceiling) with a large-screen Satellite TV/VCR/DVD/CD/stereo and a fold-up ping-pong table. The room 
has four large windows overlooking the lake, and angles out like a ship’s bow. Kids can hang out 
there, and you won’t even hear their loud music in the front of the house.

There are five central air conditioning units, and you can set the temperature independently. All 
rooms have ceiling fans and portable fans for extra cooling. There are two fireplaces for winter 
guests. The utility room has a washer and dryer – great for bathing suits, towels, etc. 

The house is located on what once was an island (a causeway now links it to the mainland), on a 
quiet circle street with no drive-through traffic, and very little traffic of any kind. There is a 
concrete driveway down to the lake, and plenty of parking for cars, boat trailers, etc.

Activities and Attractions

Water Sports

You can launch light craft (canoes, kayaks, inflatable boats, flat-bottom boats, etc) right on the 
property. There is a free municipal boat launching ramp (less than one mile away) for boaters and 
fishermen. Canyon Lake Marina (5 miles) rents sailboats and speed-boats, jet-skis, and “party 
barges” by the hour/day. The Guadalupe River (10 miles) is famous for “tubing” (floating down the 
river in an inner tube), and tube rentals come with free pickup service to return you to your 
car. “Schlitterbahn” in New Braunfels (25 miles) may be the greatest water park in the country. Kids 
love it.

Tourism

San Antonio (50 miles - the Alamo, river walk, Spanish missions, etc.) and Austin (55 miles - 
University of Texas, the state capitol, Barton Springs, etc.) are well-known destinations. Both have 
an abundance of theatres, art museums, sports and world-class dining. 

The Texas hill country has many quaint towns that welcome tourists, including Wimberley (15 miles) 
and Fredericksburg (50 miles). For Willie Nelson fans, Luckenbach, Texas is just five miles outside 
Fredericksburg, and is quite unique. The LBJ ranch, home of former president Lyndon B. Johnson (40 
miles) offers historical tours. 

New Braunfels (25 miles) and San Marcos (23 miles) both have good municipal golf courses and tennis 
courts. San Marcos also has “Outlet Malls” that are favorites with shoppers. Gruene (pronounced
“Green”), just outside New Braunfels, is a historic mill town on the Guadalupe River, and has the 
oldest dance hall in Texas, with live entertainment on weekends.

Wildlife

A herd of deer live on the island, and since they have never been hunted, are quite tame. You may 
see foxes, Osprey (sea hawks), a Great Horned Owl, and dozens of species of other birds. Ducks, 
geese and a variety of waterfowl make frequent visits to the lake, depending on season.
