Overall we enjoyed our stay at this property. The location on the Llano arm of Lake LBJ is great. The water is navigable but there is not a ton of boat traffic this far upriver. There is a small beach area on the property where the kids could play and where we left our pontoon boat tied up overnight. There is ample parking, and the driveway is fairly easy to enter and exit with a boat trailer.
The house itself is retro-fabulous but seems well kept on the interior and generally clean. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes, utensils, cookware, etc. and leftover consumables from past guests. Accommodations are a little cramped for two families of four, but we made it work by relegating our teenage boys to the sofas. We did have some trouble with the hot water being unpredictable.
The biggest issue we had with this property was the lawn being overrun with grass burrs. It was nearly impossible to walk through the grass without them sticking to your shoes, socks, or skin (ouch!). We basically had to trespass on the neighbor's lawn to walk between the house and the lake. In addition to the grass burr issue, there was uncollected trash on the grounds and by the grill, and the grill itself was grungy and full of spent charcoal.
In summary, this little lake house has a lot going for it and is a good value. However, the condition of the grounds did not meet expectations and held it back from a five-star rating.
