WATERFRONT CABIN on Cove of Lake LBJ, Fish & Float! Fenced Yard, Panoramic Views

Welcome to Birdsong Cabin! We offer a fully furnished, fully stocked, clean and comfortable home on Lake LBJ - which happens to be the largest constant level lake in the United States! We are pet friendly. Pets require prior approval please. Birdsong Cabin is a single story home, the only steps are down to the water and a step or few at the front and back doors. Inside there are no steps! So no worries about carrying groceries, kiddos and pets up and down stairs.

Our home sleeps 6 comfortably, which is the maximum number of people allowed on our property at all times. Birdsong Cabin is a 3 bedroom home with 2 full baths. Two bedrooms each have a king size bed, while the third bedroom has two full/double size beds. Both baths have walk-in showers with white subway tile. One bathroom is conveniently located near the front entrance to the home and the second bath is located by the back patio for easy access from outdoors.

From the open concept kitchen and covered back patio, you look out onto the water cove which circles an island dotted with trees. All types of wildlife can be seen in the cove. Nutria, beavers, fish, turtles, cranes, hawks and owls! Our cove is calm and peaceful river cove, perfect for kayaking, fishing and floating! Bring your water toys. The water is about 4'-6' deep, so NO DIVING in the water. Birdsong Cabin has 60' of private waterfront for you and your group to enjoy. The cove is boatable all the way around the island and out to the open water of the Colorado River.

Please keep in mind this property is waterfront to a Texas river and not fenced at the water, so watch your children and pets, and provide your own life jackets/safety devices. It's a 3 minute boat ride from Birdsong Cabin to open water, on the main Colorado River, where it is action packed. You can tie up your boat/Sea Doo/water toys at Birdsong Cabin's waterfront and relax without the big waves of open water (bring rubber bumpers/ropes). And don't forget your kayaks, paddle boards, other water toys & fishing gear. We recommend you stay in the cove's calm water, away from the main part of the Colorado River with personal water toys. Please keep in mind our cove is a natural aquarium. There is underwater vegetation and wildlife, as this is part of the Colorado River ecosystem and changes with seasons and weather.

The open kitchen at Birdsong Cabin has black granite counters with a huge center island for entertaining. There are open upper shelves, fully stocked with kitchen dishes, barware and glasses. We provide most small and large appliances you have at home. Outside the back patio has a charcoal grill and outdoor wrought iron furniture. Don't forget your laundry detergent, charcoal, lighter fluid, coffee, shampoo and conditioner.

There are covered overhangs on both the side and rear patios. We have horseshoes and washer boards for enjoyment! Come stay with us and get ready to relax and take in Lake LBJ living!

Please note, THE TOTAL NUMBER OF GUESTS ALLOWED ON THE PROPERTY AT A TIME, IS THE NUMBER OF GUESTS LISTED IN YOUR RESERVATION. If this rule is broken, Security Deposit will be lost. We appreciate your understanding in this matter.

We have a Ring security camera located at the exterior front entrance overlooking the driveway and gate. .

Pets up to 30 lbs are allowed WITH PRIOR APPROVAL ONLY. Non-refundable pet fee of $25 per day, per dog. Pets brought without permission will result in Security Deposit being lost. Pet owners, please pick up after your pet so we can continue to make Birdsong Cabin a Pet Friendly Vacation Rental! Please, non-shedding pets only. We may be able to make an exception to these rules in certain cases, so please reach out and ask.

Check-in time is 4:00 pm. Check-out time is 11:00 am. Weekly lawn maintenance is typically provided one day during the weekdays (subject to change per weather, holidays, scheduling conflicts, etc). Please make sure personal items are not on grass when mowing occurs.

Splash Boat Rentals out of Kingsland, TX is nearby and they rent boats and water toys. Also Log Country Cove rents boats as well.

Great private cove house!
Cons: The bathrooms aren't attached to any bedrooms. No kitchen sink disposal. Pros: Everything else! The house is just as advertised - a perfect little getaway home with a huge waterfront on a manmade cove. The furniture is comfortable and well-maintained. Linens were provided, plentiful and good quality. The yard was mowed and landscaping was beautiful. Housekeeping was spotless and the kitchen might be the most fully stocked with utensils, dishes and spices of any house that we have rented. Caught a catfish and lots of bluegill out back so solid kid fishing entertainment. Minutes from town and Inks Lake State Park. A great experience and we would come back!

Comfortable
There were six of us senior lady friends and the accommodations were very comfortable. Two ladies fished most of the time and caught perch and 3 nice catfish(catch and release). Sitting on the porch in morning was sooo peaceful, the games could be updated pieces missing but we still played and laughed a lot! The two bathrooms are not in the bedrooms as the sight indicated. The beds are comfortable and the kitchen is fully furnished. Lovely place to stay. Thank you Amy for sharing your home!

DOG FRIENDLY, FENCED YARD
MY DAUGHTER, HER DOG AND I ENJOYED THIS PROPERTY. VERY WELL STOCKED KITCHEN AND PLEASANT OUTDOOR SPACES. THE DOG LOVED THE BIG, FENCED YARD AND HAD A BALL EXPLORING, CHASING SQUIRRELS, AND RUNNING UP AND DOWN THE HILL. MY DAUGHTER CAUGHT A FEW NICE CATFISH WHICH WE RELEASED. QUIET EXCEPT FOR NEIGHBORHOOD MOWING, ETC. OVERALL, WE ENJOYED OUR STAY VERY MUCH. THE OWNER WAS SUPER ATTENTIVE AND HELPFUL. ONLY NEGATIVE WAS THERE ARE NO BATHROOMS CONNECTED TO ANY OF THE BEDROOMS.
