About this property

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.

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!

Great Place
We absolutely enjoyed our stay. Communication was outstanding. The property was nicely appointed, very clean, and very welcoming. The location was relatively peaceful, convenient to local stores, and 5 mins from the golf course. My wife, Mom, and kids loved the stay. We would definitely stay here again.

The place was just perfect - very nice and clean inside and two really great outdoor areas. Off season, so nice and quiet outside, great views, very relaxing!

About the host

Hosted by Amy Corley

Host profile image
The Corley Family purchased Birdsong Cabin in 2014. We have spent many family vacations on Lake LBJ and have made lots of memories near the water. We currently live in Georgetown, TX and travel to Lake LBJ whenever we get the chance. Of course, every trip we make includes our toy dogs! We hope to share our slice of heaven with you!

Why they chose this property

This property is one of a kind b/c of the panoramic view of the cove around the island. It has 60'' of private waterfront with a cement retaining wall or bulkhead. The water is a calm and relaxing cove, so bring your floats, kayaks, fishing poles and come chill! It's just a short 3 minute drive by boat to get to open water on the Colorado Arm of Lake LBJ. We had an Arborist tell us that the large Heritage oak tree in the backyard is 700-800 years old. It is huge!

What makes this property unique

Birdsong Cabin offers a fully fenced, large 1/3 acre lot for your kids and fur-babies to roam in. The private neighborhood boat ramp is about a 2 minute drive away, where you can launch your boat. Enjoy the serene setting of the cove while fishing or floating on your raft, or head out towards open water, which is less than a 3 minute ride by boat.
