Local Highlights


Conveniently located 25 minutes from downtown Austin on beautiful Lake Austin, the Robbins Rd. lake house is easily accessible via car. Many major carriers fly into the Austin-Bergstrom International Airport, including American, Continental, Delta, Southwest, United, Northwest and more. If you are coming from within Texas you may already know of the many wonders of Austin. However, if you are new to the area you may be interested in knowing about some local highlights.

You may want to spend your days outdoors on the lake boating, skiing, fishing, swimming or enjoying the sunshine lounging on the spacious back deck. If you are interested in boating somewhere you can rent a boat at Aquaventures or put your own boat in at one of the local boat ramps. You can also boat to several restaurants Hula Hut, The Pier, and Austin Ski Shores.

If you are interested in traveling a short distance by car, you can go to many local restaurants and grocery stores in less than 15 minutes. If you want to travel a little farther, you can visit the world-renowned Lake Austin Spa, Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center, the State Capitol, the University of Texas, 6th Street District, Zilker Botanical Gardens, the Arboretum Shopping area or any of the local music venues.
