Sunset Cliff Retreat-Peaceful Lakefront on Lake Buchanan

Magnificent panoramic lake views from the large windows surrounding the home! Lake views from every room. Please keep in mind water at our dock fluctuates with different weather conditions. Lake levels are out of our control, currently our lake is low. Our discounted pricing accounts. There are parks, caverns, and areas very close by to enjoy your stay at the lake. Plus, you’ll have beautiful views that will be there.

This gorgeous, modern remodeled 2,500 sq. ft.4 bed, 3 bath home is located on Lake Buchanan and boasts beautiful views of the lake from every room. It's the perfect getaway for your family, anyone who likes to fish, go boating, kayaking, or even if you just want a little peace and quiet getaway. Follow the beautiful walkway (made from rocks mined in our yard and locally) in our backyard to access the lake. Maybe you'd prefer hanging out under any of our large oak trees on the property. Where ever you choose to be, you're sure to enjoy your stay. Closeby, you'll find venues, trails, Spider Mountain, and other attractions.

When you walk in you will be captivated by views of the lake. Follow the bamboo floors through the main floor area to find a full size guest bathroom, large living room and open concept kitchen. Great areas for entertaining guests and a kitchen with pots, pans, utensils, and much more. Everything you'll need to cook a nice meal. You will also find the large master bedroom with views of the lake and a comfy king bed in the master. It has a connecting private bathroom that reminds us of going to the spa. With its beautiful atmosphere you're sure to feel right at home! It has a large soaking tub, shower, and separated sinks. We have a washer and dryer available for your use on the main level. When you're done eating inside and want to take in the fresh air walk out on our large patio deck where you can watch the sun rise or even sunset, so relaxing.

Walk upstairs to find 2 more bedrooms and 1 bathroom. The bathroom has a bathtub/ shower combo and 2 sinks. The first bedroom is great for your family. It has a full size bed and bunk beds, too. You'll find beautiful views of the lake from the windows. The second bedroom has 1 queen size bed and 2 twin beds with gorgeous views of the lake. Can you imagine waking up and looking out the window to see the water? It's marvelous!

Walk downstairs from the main floor and find the 4th bedroom with a daybed and Cabinet queen sleeper, along with a large TV, ping pong/ billiards table. We can accommodate 4 people on the bottom floor also.

July to Remember
My family and I had the pleasure of renting Heathers home for the month of July. We are a large family of 12 total and there was plenty of space for everyone to crash when they were there. Kitchen is fully stocked with everything you will ever need. I was pleasantly surprised to find a water cooler to be able to use even though we brought tons of water bottles. Beds are comfortable and so are the linens. Internet is horrible so take advantage of her DVD collection and bring some from home. We spent lots of time playing games, swimming in the lake, fishing and watching movies. Communication with host was top notch. Looking forward to staying here again!

Nice area
House is very nice. Lots of rules but most easy to follow. Lake is very, very low, but still nice views and area has lots of hills and cliffs and ricks to climb. Sleeps a big group comfortably. Communication easy and prompt. Wifi limited but adequate for light usage and streaming. Enjoyed the local state parks, lots of good exploring and hiking. Limited restaurants but good grocery store in Burnet.

Hope to be back!
The property host was always super responsive and helpful leading up to and during our stay. We loved the house. It is beautiful and has a gorgeous view of the lake that takes your breathe away when you first walk in. The location is perfect too. We spent most of our time floating in the water, a stones throw from the house, or sitting on the back porch chatting. We didn’t turn on a TV the entire stay. We also utilized the proximity of the property to other hill country favorites, hiking up about an hour north to Colorado Bend state park for a morning hike to Gormon Falls and also grabbing BBQ at the famous Coopers BBQ in Llano, tx about 45 minutes west. We definitely hope to be back one day with more kids in tow to enjoy the water!

Lake House
We stayed here with extended family - 10 of us total with 4 kids (ages 1-3). The place was very clean and accommodated us all well. Beds were comfy and kitchen was nice for cooking some meals in. The lake views are gorgeous! All of the added kid/family stuff such as the pack and plays, high chair, and toys were a huge plus for our group. The older kids and adults had fun on the lake with the paddle boards and kayaks. Would recommend for any group!

We had a nice group this trip to Lake Buchanan. This home was perfect for us! Plenty of room for 8 adults (4 couples) 6 kiddos (7 months to 5 years old). It was a challenge to follow the septic rules of no toilet paper with the little ones, but we managed. Bring a pop up tent to hang out on the dock!

Property was very nice. Had a great view to enjoy coffee off the balcony. Wish the kayaks and Paddle boats came with the price of the stay since there is a 3 night minimum. There is a lot of additional cost to use the amenities. Overall good place to stay.

Easter Holiday Weekend
The property is very well kept and accommodated 11 of us very nicely. A deck spanning the width of the house is a great outdoor space overlooking the lake. The steps down to the dock require good balance and careful stepping. We used the kayaks and paddle boat. Swimming off the dock was great fun for all of us. The A/C went out on one hot night so we had to relocate 4 adults and 4 children downstairs.. Fortunately, we had brought an inflatable mattress and that was a big help. We enjoyed an Ester egg hunt on the morning of our departure and that wrapped up a fun holiday weekend for our family.

Modern lake home directly on Lake Buchanan with GREAT views!
We spent a month here in January 2022 to be close to family that we wanted an extended visit with and this home was everything we needed. Beautifully designed and kept, we had everything we needed for mini-milestone birthdays in the family, weekend visits and board game nights with cousins and siblings. The home is spacious and modern in design and was fit out with everything we needed to host our family meals. The best part was the views from the balcony of course - the sunrise and sunsets were different every day and the daily deer visits, cranes and swan stole the show. When the temps were cooler, the Nest thermostats were easy to use and kept the home warm and the gas fireplace was a cozy bonus for quieter nights. There are two balconies that span the width of the entire home overlooking the lake - on the main level you access it thru two separate sliders off the kitchen/living area - this was used daily and large enough for tables and outdoor eating and the hosts had a gas grill available; The 2nd balcony is on the lower level where the private suite is and is just as large - this was used to primarily store the life jackets and paddles, etc. We were fortunate enough to have mostly good weather in January and we had canoes we were able to take out and do a little fishing. The stairs going down to the dock are steep but there are railings and they are comfortably wide with benches and fire pit at one of the terraced areas. I worked remotely during this time and a Verizon hotspot kept my video calls going as this location in Burnet isn't serviced with high speed service just yet; AT&T cell service was a hit on the balcony corner only despite there being a cell tower close by. The closest grocery store was HEB and when we went out, we really enjoyed Torr Na Lochs vineyard for sunset views over the hill country and small bites, wine and their dark chocolate-pecan-toffee (you're welcome!). Our hosts were always responsive with suggestions and recommendations; We highly recommend the home , these hosts and hope to be back more often.

Beautiful Lake House
We spent Thanksgiving week here and it was absolutely breathtaking and tranquil. My parents are in their 70's and they loved the property. They stayed in the master bedroom to avoid stairs. My eleven year old and 18 year old boys loved fishing, using the paddleboat, and sitting around the firepit. The house had enough beds and bathrooms for 10 of us and enough areas inside and outside to give each other space. The host was extremely accommodating and had gifts, treats and ornaments for my son to decorate the tree. Burnet is a wonderful, quaint town and it was definitely memorable.
