Winter Texans welcome, please contact for more info.

Please Note:
Due to a change in Texas law, as of April 1, 2019 VRBO is required to directly collect state hotel tax on Texas rentals. To accommodate this change VRBO took away the inclusion of the city hotel tax in calculating the total payment due. Our house is in Granite Shoals, Texas which charges a 7% hotel tax on rent and clean fees. Therefore, please be aware that an additional 7% of rent and clean fee will be added to the total collected as we await VRBO's modification of their system. Thank you for your understanding in the matter.

This family friendly lake house is on a large, peaceful cove of Lake LBJ in Granite Shoals, Texas. Lake LBJ is one of the largest constant level lakes in the U.S. and is ideal for water-skiing, jet-skiing, boating and fishing. The lake house is in a no wake zone in the cove which is great for swimming and docking boats and personal watercraft. Guests love the super-sized boat and fishing dock. The oversized dock has plenty of room for everyone and is the perfect spot for swimming, sunbathing, fishing, dancing, or just relaxing and enjoying the activity on the lake. The dock also has a water slide or you can have fun kayaking and stand up paddle boarding. Please bring your own life vest and lake towels. The water near the shore is shallow enough for smaller children to wade and gradually gets deeper.

You will enjoy the freshness and cleanliness of this home. It is kept in excellent condition. The kitchen comes completely equipped. All you need to bring are your food and drinks. The living room has a 50 inch TV and plenty of seating for everyone. The master bedroom has a king-sized bed, a 32 inch TV and a DVD player. The second bedroom has two queen-sized beds and a TV. The third bedroom has 2 bunks, one with full-sized mattress on bottom. There is also a pack and play, a booster/highchair, movies, and games.

Great for girls trips, guys trips, family trips, reunions or any type of get away.

The house is 7 miles from Marble Falls. Marble Falls has great shopping and dining as well as HEB and Walmart. The house is across the lake from Horseshoe Bay.

An additional payment request for 7% for the City of Granite Shoals Hotel Tax will be sent out after booking.

Totally Perfect!

Took grandkids (7, 11, 17) up to Lake LBJ for a few days. They all remember this house as “the catfish house”! Great location not far from Marble Falls, quiet cove, great dock for lounging & fishing, fire pit, plenty of space for kids to run and play and house was comfy with plenty of space for us 5. Seven year old granddaughter caught a 2lb catfish and was so excited. Homeowner was extremely nice and quick to answer back. Can’t wait to book again! Hudson Family

Family vacation week

After spending a week this rental started to really feel like home. It was cozy and spacious enough for a family vacation that no one was in each others way or felt crowded. The pictures of the house itself did not do it justice. The location on the lake was awesome the cove was peaceful and quiet but a great place to stay away from the crowds on the weekend. It wasn't clearly stated in the listing that boat lift and jet ski lifts weren't available to use when renting. We called the owner and she answered right away to help. The parking was a little tricky to figure out for a double jet ski trailer, pontoon boat trailer, truck, yukon xl and my parents car but it was figured out thankfully. We picked this house because we thought my 2 year old niece would be able to wade in the water but there was too much algae. I understand nature is nature though. Overall the trip was fun and the entire family had a Great vacation!!

Fun at LBJ

Clean, Clean was our major impression. Fully stocked kitchen, great pier and dock. The paddle boards and kayak were a great feature. The beds were comfortable and the hot water was abundant. TVs for football and movies worked well. We even caught a few fish! Great destination.

Excellent spot to get away!

The location of this lake house is absolutely perfect! The cove is calm quiet and huge!!! Plenty of room for boating, kayaking & SUPing! The fire pit is situated just right for watching the sunrise & enjoying the lake from morning til night! The dock is spacious with plenty of room for the fishermen & sunbathers to enjoy at the same time! You won’t be sorry that you chose this property!

Excellent location

We loved this place! The kids enjoyed the lake so much using the kayak and the paddle board. The property was very pleasant. Only complaint I would have is that it didn’t have much dishes like bowls to put dips in or such. Also, there were many spiderwebs everywhere outside on patio abs deck areas. Other than that, everything else was great.

We love the Cove!

We had such a blast! The home is perfect and online doesn’t do it justice! Very clean, comfortable beds and perfect location! We brought out boat and 2 jetskis and had such a wonderful Time! Chrissy was great and quick to respond! The only complaint was the kids not being able to open the back door by themselves (it was tricky) but that’s hardly a complaint; and we will be back!

16th birthday getaway

This property was great. It was compact and very cozy. Super clean. Kitchen was perfectly equipped. Plenty of towels for bathing. Bring your own lake towels. The girls loved use if the paddle boards and kayak. The water off the lake though is full of algae so they did not play volleyball or use the slide or swim near the dock. It is a very quiet area, lots of deer seen. Temperature in the home was good. The couch was so cozy and plenty of seating for everyone in the kitchen. The pictures don’t do this place justice. Note- the master has a king bed and private bathroom, a shared hall bathroom for a room with 2 queens & a room with 2 sets of bunk beds. Smart TVs in main room but not in master. We will definitely return. And the area is great spot for tubing, away from the more crowded parts of the lake.

Lovely home--Crissy is very responsive to any issue and takes action to quickly repair/replace. Only complaint is about the condition of the water--extreme floating moss on water top and below.

Awesome retreat. Just what we needed!!!

What a great place to spend our Easter break! Sunbathing, kayaking, canoeing, fishing, playing, grilling, relaxing, etc. etc. etc. and if that was not enough, the property is conveniently located just few miles away from a friendly boat rentals and the gorgeous Inks Lake State Park and Longhorn Cavern State Park. So, there was everything for everyone in our group (my wife, myself, our 3 children 26, 16 and 5 plus a teenage friend). The house, the yard and the dock are very clean and well maintained. The neighbors were very quiet (in fact, we have not seen them at all for the 3+ days). Check in and check our procedures are very straight forward and easy to follow. The whole stay has been very pleasant and relaxing. Just what we need to recharge our batteries before going back to work and school. We highly recommend this property, it offers a great value for the money and delivers what we all are looking for in a family retreat.

About the host

Hosted by Chrissy Wood

Host profile image

My husband and I are retired with 8 grandchildren. We had been visiting Lake LBJ for many years when we decided to buy our own piece of happiness. We bought the house with our two daughters, Chrissy Wood and Nancy Baird. We love meeting up with our children and grandchildren at the lake and hope that you will make wonderful memories like we have.

Why they chose this property

We chose this house on Lake LBJ because it is a constant level lake, meaning there is always water. We love the location on the lake as well. The house is in a large, quiet cove without a lot of boat traffic. So swimming and hanging out in the water is calm and relaxing. It is also a great spot for kayaking, stand up paddle boarding and fishing.

What makes this property unique

We love that this house has an extra large dock. The view is beautiful and there is plenty of room for fishing, sun bathing, lounging and dance parties.
