The Barn Apartment is a great place to stay if you're visiting Lake Travis or the Austin area in general. It was a very clean, well furnished, and incredibly comfortable place to spend a couple of days. I like to cook, so the well equipped kitchen and the charcoal grill came in handy. This also has to be the most well insulated apartment I've stayed in Texas - the summer heat was no match! The Hudson Bend Ranch is also close to Mansfield Dam recreational area, and Low Water Crossing (for fishing), and not too far from Lakeway Park or the Oasis restaurant. There's also a Randalls a convenient 3 miles away. I also got to meet Steven, who is a great host. I look forward to staying at the Barn Apartment again in the near future.
