Luxury French Country farmhouse off Lake Austin with fabulous waterfront boat dock to enjoy lake! This beautiful home sits on a secret street that runs along Lake Austin. We are across the street from the lake, but feature a gorgeous heated pool (November-February - heating fee optional other times of year), outdoor entertainment space with French fireplace and pizza oven!

This home rental does not come with a boat slip. Boat slips on Lake Austin are very rare and ours are occupied with equipment, but you can charter a wake or pontoon boat and they can pick you up at our dock.
