Classic Lakefront Cottage w/ Private Dock, Lovely Lake View, Backyard & WiFi

Little House on LBJ

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

A throwback to the simple vacations of yesteryear, this waterfront cottage on the shores of Lake LBJ is a place to swim off the dock, barbecue in the Texas sunshine, and dine on the grass in the shade of the trees.

This single-level, lakefront home is located on the northern shores of Lake LBJ, on a grassy piece of property with its own dock on the water. As you come back up the grounds from your morning swim, you'll be greeted by central air conditioning, free WiFi, and a window-lined sun room where you can kick back on the sofa, watch Netflix on the flatscreen TV, or simply take in the beautiful lake view. You can prepare an afternoon feast in the classic kitchen with stainless steel appliances and a circular dining table for four. Or, head out back to light the gas grill, throw on a few steaks, and dine beneath the umbrella at the table in the grass.

So we had trouble sleeping ...

The large pecan limb pictured above the roof actually bangs on the roof. The volume on the metal roof ranged from a kitchen pan to loud band's bass drum. Needs tree work and a landscaping cleanup.

Nice place

Water was extremely hard, couldn’t even shower with how bad it smelt.Gas grill ignition is broke but there was a lighter under the pit that I got to spark a bit and get it lit. Other than that the place was nice, we enjoyed our stay but if we were there more than one night we would have had to find a shower somewhere else

Travelled with family
We loved how we were on the water with a private dock and beautiful back yard. The Cottage was very quaint, but needs some updating and a once thorough cleaning before quests arrive - dead bugs (better than live) laying around in the floors. Toilet needs some repair work. And where to park was a bit confusing. But overall - loved the location and the veiw on the lake!!!!

cozy but lacking

The house is pretty accurate with what is in the pictures and descriptions on the web-site. House is small but cozy, perfect for a couple. The area is pretty much as expected with many homes around, easy access to the water and not too far from town. However, as clean as the house was in the obvious areas, better cleaning was needed in corners high and low, around windows and under cabinets beds and tables due to cobwebs. The patio furniture was covered in bird droppings and spider webs. I also felt that someone from local cleaning/maintenance crew came into the house without my knowledge on two separate occasions, but when I called number to VACASA to report this, they investigated and reassured me that no body had come into the home although a large pot with a strainer was there on day one and had disappeared on day two and the house smelled strong of fresh mothballs on day three when there had been no smell prior to that. I liked the house and location but I would consider something else because of the uncomfortable feeling we got that someone may have come int while we were out, twice.

Wonderful weekend

We had a hard time finding it due to we arrived after dark and there was no light outside the house. The little house was great and we had a wonderfully relaxing weekend on the water. We brought some pool noodles and floated by the dock while our dog enjoyed the large fenced yard. Thank you!

Giant trees

We had a great time. This a beautiful lake home with giant trees! Our dog loved the huge yard and chasing after the squirrels up in the trees. We highly recommend this cottage for a couples getaway. The dock is small but works. We even caught some fish.

Lake Life

We really enjoyed our stay. The cabin was clean except the day bed sheets were dirty. The backyard was wonderful. Big trees, beautiful grass and on the water. Swimming was just off the dock and “riding “ the waves from the boats and jet skis was fun. They need some signage for the house and where to park. It stated to park in front of the house but we didn’t know if that was the cabin or not. A sign would help.

Great location

Location of the little house was great. We were disappointed in a few things - property was covered in overgrown grass and thick thick leaves. Previous reviews have stated the same and has not been remedied (this was not a last minute booking). Behind the bed and under furniture were thick cobwebs, crumbs. They charge a hefty pet fee, but previous pet waste had not been cleaned up so we were forced to clean after others as best as possible as well as ourselves (i feel we should not be responsible for the fee in this case since it had not been maintained). Vacasa manages, so communication is limited and slow at best. Overall - good location but needs better maintenance.

Good choice!

The property was well supplied, great appliances, easy access to linens and bedding, clean and comfortable. We were a bit thrown with no internet access as we didn't come prepared for alternate activities. Not sure the $50 compensation will cover the data overage for the weekend but we managed fine and had a good stay!!

Relaxing weekend on LBJ

Extremely cute cabin on a great stretch of LBJ. Brought the kayak, fishing poles, son and our dog and had a great weekend. The lake was way too busy for any fishing but that was fine, the area was so nice and it was perfect weather to relax, grill, and starte out into the lake.

Great location on the river

My husband and I enjoyed our stay at the little cottage. Perfect location. Views were amazing. We enjoyed the pier to tie up our boat and swim off of. Sitting in the backyard enjoying the nice breeze and watching the passing boats along with the beautiful sunsets and sunrise each day.

Never again

The wet was too deep for fishing. Lots of boats and jet ski's keeping the water unsettled. My husband had to sleep on the couch because he snores. The Gardner woke us up the second morning mowing and blowing, so we just packed up and left. No more VRBO!

We absolutely loved his little cabin and it’s gorgeous view.

The house was a perfect size and came with absolutely everything I needed. Because of the boat activity Friday through Sunday, it is not a place for swimming or paddle boarding. The early morning and night time fishing was awesome. I caught catfish and bluegill. It was peaceful so nice to wake up and walk right down to the water. I would definitely recommend this little house on the lake!
