Holiday rentals with a kayak in Granite Shoals

My family and I came here for a peaceful and relaxing weekend, and it couldn’t have been better. The house was absolutely beautiful—spacious, clean, and very comfortable. We especially enjoyed spending time together in the cozy living room and the well-equipped kitchen. The lake was cool and refreshing, and our dog had a blast swimming in it! The only suggestion we have is to consider updating the chairs on the back patio. Aside from that, everything was wonderful. We’ll definitely be returning for another visit!

nice place.we would love to come back again

My husband and I stayed here because we were going to Bronco Off-Rodeo. It was about a 10 minute drive, so the location was perfect. The home was absolutely beautiful, exactly like the photos. As we arrived we were greeted by two deer in the front yard. Gary and Diana provide food for the deer. One ate from my hand a few times during our stay, which I loved! The home itself is wonderful, with everything you need provided and more! It was spotless, thoughtfully decorated and very well organized. If I needed something, it was already provided down to the sugar and coffee. This is one of the best Airbnb’s I’ve ever stayed in. You can tell this home is cared for and well maintained between guests. I met Gary as he was walking his dog in the evening. He was very kind and told me to contact him anytime if there was anything we needed. The front and back yard are great for sitting outdoors in the evenings and the deer came to visit both evenings during our stay. Highly recommended!

This place was great for a work week getaway. The kitchen is absolutely stocked with anything you might need. The master bed and pillows were very comfy. There are a lot of beds available in this house for extra guests/children, even queen size bunk beds. The house is definitely laid out to maximize guest space. That being said the upstairs (kitchen, living, master bedroom) seems spacious. There are views from the master bedroom and living room to the lake. If the weather isn’t cooperating you can still enjoy the view. Driving into Marble Falls is literally 10 minutes and there is a grocery store if you need supplies. That area has grown a lot and there are many restaurants as well. The owners were communicative however we had no issues during our stay. Everything was clean and working. Would recommend!

What a wonderful location! We were just at an hour from several state parks we were able to visit all we wanted. The house was spacious, clean, and the AC was super nice to be able to escape to during the hottest parts of the day. We enjoyed the firepit almost every night and could see so many stars. There were some bugs which is to be expected since it was close to the lake. The kids loved climbing on the rocks in the backyard. My daughter caught a turtle and saw tadpoles. thanks for sharing your lake house!

Immaculate home! Everything was clean, tidy and orderly - easy to enjoy, and easy to clean away when checking out. It truly felt like our own home whilst there. Michael was the perfect host too, responsive when needed, but respected our privacy to enjoy the home. We’ll be back!

Very clean and had a fenced yard which was perfect for my dog. Kitchen was perfect for our needs and the bedrooms were a nice size. Home is about 10 minutes from Marble Falls where you'll find groceries and eating establishments. Fuel stations right outside the neighborhood were a plus. Lovely place to stay!

The Dome is epic! Seriously cool 70s style with OG Austin vibes. We really enoyed using the kayaks and lily pad. Chilling on the boat house deck for the sunset was our favorite nighty activity. Lucas was a responsive and friendly host. My husband lost his wallet somewhere in the house and we were promptly informed when the cleaning crew found it to schedule a pickup. All around 5 stars!

Loved it here! This was a great find. It was a nice clean room overlooking the river and was on very pretty grounds alongside other rentable cabins. The Spicewood location right on the Pedernales and along lake travis was wonderful, truly waterside with easy access to the kayaks/canoes/paddleboards which you can rent through Travis quickly and conveniently. After sunset I had plenty of room to set up my telescope and had a great view of the moon and stars over the water. It’s right down the street from Krause and several other hillcountry gems. Great host. I’d totally come back.

What a great little house for me, my husband, and our dog to get away from the big city for a few days. It had everything we needed and plenty of space to lounge and play. The views from the back yard were amazing, and having access to the river for swimming was so fun. We also loved how the house was isolated and quiet, but super convenient to drive to Inks Lake for the day, or Burnet for meals and groceries. Would definitely recommend this house to families with kids and dogs looking for a little out-of-the-city adventure.

Juliana’s place was great and very comfortable. It was a little further out than what we were hoping for, but that was probably on me. It’s remote and we had a wedding about 30 minutes away. Other than that, everything was perfect!

This property is so beautiful. We were looking for a place to getaway from the city and Isabels place was perfect. So much love has been poured into this property. Our son ( 2 ) loved the playground and digging in the dirt at the creek, but most of all he loved the dog. I enjoyed quiet cups of coffee in the morning and chaos of my little one all day. Plenty of toys inside and entertainment for us outside. It was the perfect Fathers Day weekend..my heart is so full.. thank you for sharing this beautiful place with us.

This place was beautiful! It was right on the water which was just perfect. We went mountain biking on Friday at Spider Mountain which was about 15 mins away from us and then went to the Spartan race the next day that was about 20 mins away. So if you’re going for either of those this location is perfect. There were games & puzzles & dvds available. A charging station was included in the living room/kitchen area which was very convenient. As others have said there are spiders & bugs outside but that’s what happens when you’re by water. Also yes it gets rocky at the bottom to get to the water area so just be careful. But being on the water is so beautiful and we would love to go back!

Stone Cottage was such a peaceful retreat for us to recharge for a few days. We enjoyed relaxing on the deck and floating in the pool surrounded by nature and tons of birds. Birders- bring your binoculars! We had some gorgeous sunsets too. We didn't bring our paddle boards but it's a good spot for all levels to paddle (or kayak) just plan to bring everything down to the dock for the day so you only have to make the hike back up to the house one time- it's steep and rocky but doable. Your reward is cooling off in the pool at the end of the day.

Amazing services he’s always an answer my questions and this places its amazing ! I have other plans for next month , my next plans rent the big house ! Wonderfully atmosphere! One thing guys, buy all the food you need before you come because around here close not have a market. If you are looking to be disconnected and stay always from the people ! This is the place!!! If you wanna have some fun ! A couple minutes have a bad ass music bar !!! 👏 this place !

Listen, this place was perfect for our family. It’s an old cabin-style place to stay that’s walking distance to the park, restaurant, and lake. No it’s not a boutique glamping spot that’s instagrm -worthy. Kara and Conner’s instructions were very clear and easy to follow. If you’re used to staying at people’s homes and not picking up after yourself then yeah, it’s a task. All they ask you to do is literally be courteous. The kids and I loved it! They have good WiFi and television. The bed was AMAZINGLY comfortable too! We will return!

The house is very spacious. The lake is low but you walk down the stairs to the water. The house was very well stocked and the air conditioner works great. A 20 minute drive to Burnet. Plenty of dining establishments, antique shops and HEB for groceries. Overall we had a great stay and if you like the water, this is a good place to vacation. I do recommend taking the Vanishing Texas River Cruise. The guide is very knowledgeable on the area.

Beautiful place. Wonderful host.

The house was peaceful and had a lot to offer. We loved hot tub and above ground pool . The fenced in yard with two peach trees and patio were just lovely. We had a well stocked kitchen, bedrooms as well as the rest of the house which made us feel right at home. Lake Buchanan is pretty much a field of stickers due to drought so plan on Inks Lake for your water activities. If you’re looking for a getaway, this is a sweet house. Especially for dog lovers.

Judy is a wonderful host! She communicated with us immediately. She showed us all the amenities of the property and the house when we arrived. The house was a cute decorated Texas theme pattern. She thought of everything in the house! Beds were comfortable! The living room had a pool table and a smart TV. The outside sitting area was very peaceful and serene! Lots of chairs to sit on and take in the views! The lake was beautiful as well as the pool! This was a little slice of heaven on Lake Buchanan. I wish we had more time because the area was beautiful, scenic, and relaxing! Thank you to Judy for hosting your home, being responsive, giving food requests, and providing extras on the lake. We hope to return soon!

It was clean and a lot of space for big families and has everything you need and I recommend it I would like to go back.

If you're looking to get away from crowds and have space to yourself, this is the place! Keep in mind that this location is NOT intended to be a luxury stay...it is rugged and set up similar to a hunting lodge. At the time of our stay, there were 2 sets of bunk beds, so for couples, there is either going to be a crowded bed, or you'll have to sleep separate. This wasn't an issue for us, as we knew what we were getting into to begin with, but something others should keep in mind when booking this location. It is comfortable, and on a ranch with lots of land, so staying here allows for exploration. For us, we'll definitely stay here again. Carl was super nice, and was more than willing to accommodate wherever necessary. We made a new friend by staying here!

Beautiful property with everything you need for a stay at the lake. Gorgeous views!
