WATERFRONT CABIN Lake LBJ Cove, Fish/Float!, Fenced Yard PETS OK, Panoramic View

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, geese 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. The pictures in the listing are accurate and show what the water level is like at all times on Lake LBJ.

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 50 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.

Best House! Will be back!

Birthday fishing trip for our 14 year old daughter didn’t disappoint. The property was beautiful with lots of outdoor activities. The cove was a honey hole. Easily caught tons of fish using worms and lures. A cute island full of geese right across the cove. A great kayak spot. Fully stocked kitchen and the most comfortablebeds! Very cute decor. Overall A! Host was responsive and helpful.

Weekend getaway

My husband and I stayed at Birdsong cabin for 3 nights. It was clean, comfortable, and quiet. We enjoyed watching some drama unfold between the geese on the island across the water as well as seeing cardinals and woodpeckers. Weather did not allow us to use the waterfront as much as we would have liked, but we are hoping to return and try again.

Perfect family get away

The house is called birdsong Cabin. Love the name, but it certainly is not a cabin. It is a lovely home and fully equipped with anything you need. The grounds are absolutely beautiful, the neighborhood is quiet, and many recreational areas are close by. The owners were available and very helpful. Highly recommend this place for a family getaway or a gathering of friends.

2nd Time Renter

This is the 2nd time we have rented this property, and most of the same reasons we keep coming back. My wife and I and our 2 teenage children enjoy getting away from it all and this place does it. Located on a nice, secluded cove, we have stayed a total of 10 nights and have still yet to see a neighbor. We love playing corn hole, horseshoes and even croquet. We cook all our meals here and the kitchen has everything, I grill the meats outside. We don't spend much time inside but still has what you need, clean rooms, nice bathroom and best of all, only 1 TV. Only 10 minutes from all the boat rentals. Go to the HEB in Marble Falls for whatever you want to cook, the one in Kingsland is very small. The host, Amy is exactly what you want in a host, great communication both pre and post trip and she doesn't get in the way while you are there. The only thing I would add is a couple of Kayaks but no biggie. Hopefully cane make it back for a 3rd time.

Great Stay at Birdsong!!

Our family of 5 had a great time at this location. The house was very clean and comfortably fit our crew. Very convenient to put in our boat and tie it on the dock (ramp is literally around the corner from the house). Plenty of room in the driveway to park the boat trailer plus 3 SUV/trucks. The kitchen is extremely well stocked. The back yard is fenced and great for a dog. We took our boat and ate at Boatown (easy 10 min boat ride) and got reservations at Hoopers for dinner one night. It’s a very quiet neighborhood with easy access to LBJ lake. We rented jet skis a couple of days as well. No complaints about the property and communication with owners is easy and prompt. Beds are comfortable and house stays cool (it was 101 a few days we were there). Everything is less than 10 mins away. We would stay here again!

Fantastic stay for our family

Our family of four stayed over the Fourth of July. The lake house is darling and spotlessly clean. The view out to the cove from the back of the house and the backyard is lovely. A very serene location. We brought our boat and enjoyed the location on the cove with easy access to the river. We floated in the cove near the house too. We ran out of time but wanted to paddle-board too. Amy was very helpful and great with communication. We enjoyed the Thirsty Armadillo (drive thru) for creative drinks and ventured to the Bluebonnet Cafe for dinner and their scrumptious pies. We highly recommend a stay on the lake here and would definitely stay again.

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!

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!
