Find a stretch of time that should have good weather and enjoy it with others here. Was basically summer weather in October for us and perfect water. Fantastic dock and outdoor area overall plus a house with plenty amenities.
8 of us had a wonderful week at the gathering place! Kitchen had everything we needed. Tons of games to play and things to do on the water. Host was perfect to work with!
The owners of this property have created a beautiful, comfortable spot that is great for a large family gathering. The kitchen has everything you need--bonus points for Tajin in the spice rack! The beds were comfortable. The fire pit is awesome and the place is well equipped with paddle boards, kayaks, and life jackets. We will absolutely stay here again in the future!
We had a wonderful time staying at this property with nice view and all the facilities you need for your stay away from home to be comfortable. Bill was proactively providing details and prompt in responding to any queries. It was a five star stay for us and we would certainly consider visiting this amazing vacation home sometime soon!
Property accommodated our 3 families with abundant space. It came with everything we needed to enjoy the long weekend. It’s close to Spider Mountain, a winery, and a State Park with caverns. We will definitely return!
Owner was excellent to work with, and made sure we had a great stay. Excellent with the details (sharp, quality knives for example). Lots of space inside and out. The dock and patio are especially nice. We had 9 adults and one infant, with plenty of space, kitchen gear, games, etc…
We had a wonderful time at "The Gathering Place." It was a restful, relational time of getting to relate well with other men who were seeking to process life together both personally and spiritually!

We had a large party and this place had plenty of room (including sleeping room) for our group. The outdoor fire pit was fantastic for evening gatherings, but our favorite area was by the deck! The kitchen/living room was spacious and it never felt small.
We had to contact them for small things and they responded right away!
Well appointed home perfect for multi-generation family vacation.
The property was thoughtfully stocked from kitchen to outdoor patio; and we particularly enjoyed the paddle boards and kayaks. The property was very clean all around and had very cold AC. The only drawbacks were the recent rains had deposited debris in water around dock and there was no rope swing.
Bill was an excellent host and made sure everything was perfect for us. We had pretty much everything we needed. The house was beautiful and the view was perfect. We spent most of the day outdoors even though it was cold and rainy because of how great the backyard was. It can hold 14 people with use of the sleeper sofas or 12 without. It was an absolutely great time.
The outdoor photos don't do justice to how great that space is. With the help of the chefs in our party we prepared amazing meals with the outdoor cooking equipment and fed an army. Plenty of space to lounge indoor and out. Lots of easy access water toys to enjoy the river. Don't skip the rope swing.
We rent often and this is perhaps the most thoughtful, well stocked, organized property we have ever rented. Exceptional explanation and directions for all amenities. Exceptional and proactive owner/manager. 5 levels of decks to enjoy from the master deck to the Tiki bar at waters edge. We only had 6 but easily would have been able to serve 20 people there were so many matched and new dishes and stainless. Kayaks, paddle boards, huge decks. Outstanding and already looking forward to booking again.
This place had it all! There was 14 of us and we all had plenty of space! Everything was clean and wonderful! The lily pad, paddle boards and kayaks let us play in the water even on the 2 days of cold weather! The swing was a little intimidating for my old self, but the kids loved it! All the different levels for seating and chilling was literally perfect! We had such a great time and would come back here in a SECOND! In fact, my hubby kept saying he wanted to buy it! lol
Our family of 14 (grandparents, adult children and grandchildren) love our time together on vacations and this location served us very well! The accommodations were excellent, the generous supply of dishes and appliances were easily able to keep up with our many meals, the high quality towels and linens exceeded our expectations, and the equipment (kayaks, paddle boards, and many life jackets) was top notch and met all our needs. The facilities were very well maintained and the owner could not have been more responsive and accommodating! Did we love it? You bet! And many family memories were created. Highly recommended!
Bill Wilson and his wife couldn't have been more accommodating. Our group felt so special with the care the Wilsons gave our family. Such beautiful lodging with everything readily available ...anything you might need during your stay. The kitchen was so perfect. We had two awesome Texas winter days. Our last day reminded us that it truly was the month of December. Brrr. Can't wait to visit The Gathering Place in the summer. Our entire group loved the Christmas gift of lodging on Lake LBJ...a tradition David and I love gifting to our own three kiddos and their families.
Stayed here 2 years in a row and will be back. Great spot. Awesome dock, fishing is good. The host is very responsive and everything you need is provided. 5 stars.
As the date approached we received a very detailed document from the host/owner, with everything you might possibly want to know. He also texted several times to confirm we were in and found everything to our liking.
The kitchen: incredibly well equipped. You don’t need to bring anything but your own food.
The outside: this is where you will be the whole time. Two screened in porches as well as a covered deck over the dock. Our family loved the floating lily pad and the swing from upper deck into the water. The outside kitchen was very useful for drinks, snacks, and food preparation. Two large picnic tables there provide shaded area with seating for everyone, as well as chairs and lounge chairs.
There is cornhole to play on the large flat gated front yard, and ping pong on the expansive downstairs screened in porch. The game closet has many games that the host has listed on the information they send you.
I would say the only negatives are that the ice maker in frig did not keep up and we had to get ice several times.
We were also lucky there were no tenants in the condos right next door; although the neighborhood does have a 10 pm quiet time. After being outside all day, none of us came close to making it until 10 pm!
A wonderful family bonding experience for us all.
