Spend evenings on the large two-level deck, challenge the family to foosball in the upstairs game room, or unwind beneath the mature live oaks.

Canyon Star gives families and groups room to be together without feeling crowded. With four bedrooms, multiple gathering spaces, an upstairs game room, and expansive outdoor areas across 1.4 private acres, there’s space for everyone to settle in and enjoy the Hill Country.
On the main level, the open living, dining, and kitchen areas create a natural gathering place for the group.

We spent three nights at Joe’s Canyon Lake home and it couldn’t have been better. The house was very clean, from the kitchen to the beds/towels. The kitchen is one of the best-stocked we’ve seen: plenty of pots, pans, plates, bowls, silverware. The living-room TV setup kept everyone entertained in the evenings, and there was more than enough space for our group of six (four adults and two young girls).The location is ideal: less than 10 minutes to Potter’s Creek Park for lake access, but tucked away on a quiet street so we could relax without road noise. Communication with Joe was fast and friendly from booking all the way through checkout—he checked in just enough to make sure we had everything we needed without ever feeling intrusive.Overall, an excellent stay that exceeded expectations. We’d happily book here again!
This home was very clean and beautiful! The kitchen has everything that you could possibly need! If you like watching wildlife, make sure to go to the Brookshire grocery store and pick up some corn to feed the deer, then sit out in the beautiful balcony and enjoy! I will definitely keep this home as one of my favorites
