Lake Travis Lodging
We rent Lake Travis vacation homes, cabins, condos, and cottages.

Rental Rates: Rates are in U.S. dollars as posted on the home page. In-season rates are for Mar 8-Sep 18. Out-season rates are for Sep 19-Mar 7. All homes have a minimum 2 night rental. There is a 3 night minimum for in-season holiday weekends. Rates are plus 6% tax (12% in Lago Vista and 13% in Jonestown) and a $35 non-refundable application fee. Rates are subject to change without notice until reservation is confirmed. For homes that accept pets, there is an additional $35 (per stay, not per day) non-refundable fee for each pet.

Payments: One half of the total rental amount plus a $35 application fee is due at time of reservation. The remainder is due a few days before the arrival date. Payments may be made with check, money order, or credit card. Credit card payments may be made at www.laketravislodging.com or by phone. MasterCard, Visa, Discover, and American Express are accepted. The name on the credit card must be the same as the name on the rental agreement.

Security Deposit: The security deposit varies from $300 to $1,500, depending upon the specific home rented. If credit card information is not on file with Lake Travis Lodging, the security deposit is due at least 7 days before the arrival date. In most cases the deposit is returned, as may be appropriate, 14-21 days after departure date. If a credit card is used to secure the home, the card is not actually charged the security deposit unless it is felt by Lake Travis Lodging that the risk to the home is greater than normal. Damages, if any, will be charged to your card or withheld from your deposit after your departure.
All or a part of your damage/security deposit may NOT be refunded if:
·        A pet has been in the rental unit.
·        We find that guests have been smoking in the rental unit.
·        Trash is not placed in plastic bags AND properly placed in outside container.
·        Furniture has been moved and not returned to its original position.
·        Dirty dishes are left in the kitchen sink, on the counter top or in the refrigerator. Dirty dishes may be left in the dishwasher; however, we do ask for the dishwasher to be turned on before departing.
·        All open or perishable food products that have been brought in by our guests are not removed from the rental unit prior to departure.
·        There is damage to furniture, upholstery, carpet and vinyl (stains, tears, burns, scratches) or any other damages/accidents and/or broken items.
·        More people than allowed in the rental unit or on the property upon which the rental unit is located than is listed on the contract which you signed.
·        There are unnecessary service calls for heating/air conditioning, appliances, or plumbing. For example, the air conditioning should not be set lower than 72 degrees or unit may “freeze up” and will not cool properly; occasionally burners on stove may not heat because they are not properly plugged in; refrigerator should always be left on “normal” setting; or toilets may be sluggish and simply plunging will correct the problem.
·        It takes more than two (2) hours for the cleaning crew to clean a rental unit.   Immediately after your departure, an inspector is dispatched to inspect the house that you rented. If it is necessary to bring in a cleaning service due to excessive cleaning beyond what our normal cleaning crew performs, the cost of this service will be charged to your card or deducted from your deposit.
    You will be notified of any deductions made from your damage/security deposit for violations of rental agreements.

Application and Pet Fees: A non-refundable application fee of $35 is applied to each rental. For homes that allow pets, there is a non-refundable pet fee of $35 per pet per stay.

Cancellation Fee: A cancellation fee of $35 is due if a reservation is cancelled at least 30 days before arrival date. For cancellations 14-29 days prior to arrival date the cancellation fee is $35 plus 1/2 of one night rent. For cancellations 3-13 days before arrival date the cancellation fee is $35 plus one nights rent. For cancellations 2 days or less before arrival date the cancellation fee is $35 plus 2 nights rent.

Late Departure/Early Arrival Fees: Arrival time is after 4 p.m. and departure is by 12 noon. An extra night's rent will be charged for either a late departure or an early arrival. If available, 4 hour blocks of time may be purchased in advance for an early arrival or late departure at the rate of 1/3 of 1 night's rental for each 4 hour block. There is no refund for unused time.

Cleaning Fee: There is a charge for a light cleaning after your departure. This fee varies, depending upon which home is rented. If additional cleaning is needed, an excessive cleaning fee may be charged. There is also a charge for linen or towels that are damaged, missing, or stained and cannot be reused.
