About this property

Quiet Luxury on Lake Travis - Waterfront + Outdoor Living

  • Escape to a private waterfront sanctuary on 2.57 acres in the heart of the Texas Hill Country in Spicewood. With 130 feet of Lake Travis frontage and unobstructed views of the 1145-acre protected Turkey Bend Recreation Area, this peaceful retreat offers privacy, beauty, and quiet luxury surrounded by nature.

    Designed for guests who value serenity over crowds and noise, the property is ideal for relaxing getaways, couples' weekends, family gatherings, and restorative time at the lake.

    The home features:
    • 3 bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bath
    • A private ground-floor casita with a luxurious stone bathroom
    • Expansive outdoor living spaces with nearly 1,000 square feet of decking
    • A high-end outdoor kitchen and fireplace
    • A wall of windows framing lake views and spectacular sunsets
    • A large screened porch that becomes the heart of the home in every season.

    Outside, the experience is equally special. Wander the stone walking labyrinth beneath majestic oaks trees, relax in the cowboy pool, or enjoy butterfly gardens and exceptional birdwatching. In the evening, stretch out and gaze at the stars. When the lake is full, turn on the cascading waterfalls that flow down the hillside toward the lake. Guests can enjoy the private beach and easy lake access, with a community boat ramp just yards away.

    Lake Travis is currently 80% full and guests can enjoy the private beach and easy lake access, with a community boat ramp just yards away. There is plenty of water for boating, swimming, fishing, and relaxing on the beach.

    Guests love morning coffee on the screened porch while deer and birds move through the trees. At sunset, the lake and preserve glow gold from nearly every outdoor space. If you’re searching for a peaceful waterfront experience immersed in nature, this Lake Travis retreat offers a rare combination of privacy, comfort and timeless Hill County beauty.

    Despite its peaceful setting, the home is conveniently located near:

Amazing property and responsive host. She’s thought of everything to make your stay comfortable. We visited when the bluebonnets were in all their glory on the property. The view from the screened in back porch down to the lake was beautiful. Highly recommend Carla’s home.

My family had such a lovely time. We stayed here during wildflower season and the weather was absolutely perfect. The landscaping and natural elements of the property ensure a peaceful environment for rest and play. The home is clean, comfortable, cozy, and well-equipped. My family especially enjoyed the board/card games. The patios and outdoor spaces are ideal for reading, meals, and nature watching. Carla is an excellent host with prompt, professional communication. Thank you for checking in on us and for your thoughtful, comprehensive property notes.

There could not be a more gorgeous and serene place than this rental. The description is absolutely correct. The owner is so incredibly nice and accommodating and caring. So great at communicating too. We had our wedding in Spicewood and this rental made it an even more special trip. All pros! Easy check in and out process, TVs, exceptionally well stocked, beautifully well maintained gardens. If you forgot something it just might already be there waiting for you (body wash, kitchen things, etc). Can’t wait to come back!

The place and grounds are beautiful! It also was the perfect setup for our family. The dogs had plenty of space to explore with our young daughter in a safe gated area. Outside the gate, the grounds were also well-maintained. We enjoyed spending time at the place, and especially appreciated the kitchen with plenty of spices and availability of high end cookware that allowed us to enjoy more time at the place. Carla (host) was also very kind and responsive prior to and during our stay. We very much enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning again.

Our girls' weekend getaway was nothing short of spectacular! Traveling from the constant hustle and bustle of the DFW metroplex, this Sophisticated, Serene Waterfront Paradise was exactly the medicine we needed. I am so thankful that we got to share a beautiful weekend with great friends.The property is the perfect sanctuary for anyone seeking peace. The combination of the gentle flow of Lake Travis and the lush greenery in the background creates a superb, calming atmosphere. Our mornings were incredibly quiet and restorative; there is nothing quite like watching the sunrise while deer graze peacefully on the lawn just a few feet away.The layout of the home was perfect for our group. We spent our days soaking in the views and our evenings engaged in team-building and games that brought us all together for a fun-filled, stylish experience in the Hill Country.The location is also hard to beat. We took a trip to the nearby Krause Springs, which is an absolute must-see! Since the wildflowers were in bloom during our stay, the drive and the destination were both breathtakingly beautiful.Lastly, a huge thank you to the owner. They were incredibly attentive and available whenever we had a question, ensuring our stay was seamless from start to finish. If you are looking for a place to disconnect and recharge in style, this is it. We can’t wait to come back!

Carla’s Lost Cove was a special experience from the moment we booked. Carla is the consummate host and it only got better when we arrived. The property was immaculate and well stocked with everything we needed, and the views were spectacular. Our favorites were morning sunrise and coffee on the screened porch, the comfy couches, blankets, and bedding, as well as cooking outside and the terrific porches. The perfect lakehouse to unwind and relax at.

From booking to departure, Carla was in constant communication. The home itself was perfect. Each room is a separate suite, with each having its own bathroom. The views were amazing. The property is secluded and very peaceful at night. Our puppy enjoyed the stay the most, having multiple acres to explore and run about. If you’re looking for a peaceful, lakeside retreat you’ve found your place. Book right away!

This home brings you peace and comfort the minute you walk in. The property is very quiet and serene. Carla was very quick to respond to any questions and provided easy check in and check out. Each bedroom has its own bathroom providing privacy to you & your guests. The beds were comfortable and all my guests talked of how well they slept. The downstairs is its own suite or casita with added living room. A spectacular view of the hills & Lake Travis are seen from both floors. The accommodations were first rate including the furnishings and decor. Thanks again, Carla. I will highly recommend this home to friends and family.
