FloatHouse
The Famous
Lake Travis ~ Austin TX
You'll love this place...everybody does!
AWESOME!
(That's the most commonly used word in our guestbook.)
Everybody loves the Float House. Part House Boat - Part Lake House - with the best of both (and a whole lot cheaper than a houseboat).
What we are:
Built from the water up for fun. It's a full size house (1400 sq ft, 3 bedroom - 1 1/2 bath) that floats on the water. It truly is the most unique vacation rental on Lake Travis (or just about anywhere).
Tabletop shuffleboard, pool table, swim mat, paddleboard, firepit, underwater fish light, water slide, and the best rope swing in Texas (or just about anywhere) are just some of the attractions. The main star though is just being right there on the lake.
What we are not:
We are not The Four Seasons - this place is very much a "lakehouse".
And, we are not your typical American "remove-it-for-liability" anesthetized place. You have to use your own judgement a little (e.g. the rope swing, open handrails, open ladders).
Also, the place is not really very "toddler" friendly. The kids really do need to know how to swim (or be watched closely).
