On the water

A dock on Pool Canyon Cove is there for fishing, and some local boat-rental companies will pick you up right at the dock. The cove is one of few deep water coves on Lake Travis, and the whole cove is a no-wake zone where boats idle through. The main body of Lake Travis is a minute away. The cove is a welcome spot for kayaking or paddleboarding; feel free to bring your own.

Sit on one of the outside decks and look out over the lake, or wander down to the water. The location module places Lake Travis a one-minute walk (0.1 km) away.

The neighborhood module places the home in Hudson Bend, a neighborhood in Austin, in a rural area and on the waterfront. Amenities list the location type as waterfront, lake, near a lake, and water view.
