Hudson Bend Casa at Lake Travis Owned by famous chef

Chef Jeff Blank of Hudson's on the Bend Restaurant's beautiful rustic Santa Fe style home with a stunning view of Lake Travis.

Enjoy the lake view while lounging around the pool. The covered patio bar is well furnished for comfortable lollygagging and there is a bathroom and shower in the pool/bar area for your convenience.

This house was built for a chef by a chef with well stocked indoor and outdoor kitchens. Dinner with no dirty pots and pans, grill your steaks and veggies on the outdoor grill. Or you can make use of the indoor range if indoor cooking is more your style.

You have the choice to dine inside or outside as there are tables in both locations.

The entirety of the house facing the lakeside is floor to ceiling windows so you won't miss any sunsets.

Sleeping accommodations are for 8 people.

The master bedroom has a king sized bed. It has it's own private toilet and shower/tub room.

The family room has a sleeper sofa with a comfortable queen sized bed. This room also has a half bath.

The guest house has a queen sized bed in the bedroom and a sitting room with a queen sized sleeper sofa. The guest house rooms are separated by a full bathroom and can be closed off for privacy.

There are many common sitting areas for together time.

This is a gated property on 2 acres abundant with wildlife i.e. grey fox, armadillos, deer, skunk, raccoons, possums, owls, turkey, tortoises and croaking bullfrogs in the ponds.

The property is a compound of houses. Jeff and Sara, the owners, live in a house set apart from the rental property. Sara's brother, Gordon lives in a Tiny Home in this same area.

Rest assured the property is yours and we will not be underfoot. However, we will be accessible for any questions or needs.

This is a unique and visually stunning property for a family vacation.
