About this house rental

Welcome to Walker Luxury Vacation Rentals, where exceptional guest experiences and premium hospitality are our top priorities. Each of our homes comes with a dedicated team of knowledgeable agents that are available 24/7. Your personal representative is not only well-versed in every detail of the home, but has likely enjoyed it with their own friends and family. They will quickly become an invaluable resource, guiding you to the best experiences and locations tailored for your group.

This luxury waterfront home is located on Lake Austin, where you will be just 30 minutes from downtown Austin yet enjoy the tranquility of lakeside living. The house was designed to bring the outside in with expansive views and has multiple decks and patios to take full advantage of the outdoors.

Relax to spectacular sunsets, cozy up in front of a fire, BBQ and dine al fresco, bask in the sun, shoot billiards, lounge around in the shade, or take a dip in the lake. At Stairway to Heaven, you'll have a lot of choices for where to have fun at this beautiful lake house!

The main indoor living area has an ideal open-concept layout, with a spacious, well-equipped kitchen, dining, and living space. Panoramic lake views are the star of the show, so be prepared to grab your morning coffee or evening cocktail (or nothing at all) and step onto the large adjoining balcony to spend your vacation enjoying the breathtaking scenery.

Downstairs you have another spacious living area with ample, cozy seating where you can spread out and watch movies or your favorite sports.

This property is located in an affluent, quiet lakeside neighborhood which is perfect for family vacations, lake retreats, romantic holidays, and groups of friends. Parties are not allowed.

Important note: Stairway to Heaven is named for its stunning lakeside location and also the stairway of 100 steps leading down to the dock. Also, parking is at the top of the driveway with a stairway of ~50 steps down to the house. This property is not a good fit for anybody who cannot navigate the stairs.

The boat slip is not included in the rental.

Great stay - highly recommend
8 / 10Excellent·Apr 2026
Positives:- Management company did the best they could with what they are working with- House and view are great- Hotel quality linens were appreciatedCould be better:- Kitchen is not equipped to cook. Pots and pans are pretty shoddy- Driveway is no joke. Do not even attempt it unless you have perfect control of an EV all wheel drive- Internet was lacking (they use t mobile towers for it). Luckily we traveled with our Starlink- Work set up lacking (there is a small desk in one of the rooms)- No wine or bar glasses and broken coffee machines- We wanted to rent a boat and dock it, but were not allowed to- All neighbor houses are getting built, so tons of construction sounds and work trucks take over the road and driveway
10 / 10Outstanding·Mar 2026
Large, spacious, modern, well-decorated, great views all around. We counted 109 well-maintained stairs from the lower level down to the dock. You'll also want to park at the top of the driveway, as it is a steep, windy walk down. Very manageable for an able-bodied adult or child, and totally worth the extra effort for the hilltop views. Very large TVs in numerous rooms on 3 levels. For a family of 3 it made for a pretty decadent stay - we had more than enough room to spread out on the top floor; a large group could have a blast and take better advantage of the space. Bedrooms had fantastic bedding and were tastefully decorated. We cooked and grilled most nights in the excellent kitchen with huge island. Lovely selection of bar glasses and you might find some common cocktail ingredients like simple syrup, bitters, etc. (Notes - The disposal switch is hidden under the counter on the left side. The modem/router work better if you move them onto the balcony or closer to windows.)

Great location. The only downside was the active construction noise and debris from next door while tying to enjoy the outdoor amenities. Construction workers seem lock eyes on our female guests continously.
