The Lakehouse was recommended to us by a friend so we decided to do a quick weekend getaway. This was such a great quiet, tranquil resort. Although its right in the heart of San Marcos, you feel like its far away. Check in was quick and welcoming. Our room faced the lake and pool. I would highly recommend the 2nd floor because of the high, vaulted ceiling. The room was huge compared to other resorts. The kids loved making smores by thr fire. Although it was off season, Audrey, the pool bartender was serving and took care of our drinks and food during the day. Having coffee by the lake was such a nice experience. We will definitely return when the weather warms up again.

Such a nice find. Clean “boutique” feel resort. It was off the beaten path so it wasn’t so crowded yet the coast was only a 25 minute drive. The staff was very friendly, the lobby was recently renovated and the room was extremely comfortable.

Great Girls Getaway Place!
Love staying at this place. Met girlfriends and hung out by the pool. Pool water was cold but towels, chairs, umbrellas were great. Had a great lake front room, excellent dinner and wine at Amalfi. Loved sitting in our adirondack chairs and looking at the evening lights reflecting on the lake. A little weird in the morning that a guest from another room came and sat on our patio in our chair - and also a staff guy walked by our patio a few times with chairs while we were still in our jammies. Had another delicious meal at breakfast at the golf patio while we watched our fav football teams play Sunday morning. All in all, a really lovely place. Will definitely be back!

Property was nice. Staffs was amazing but the room is kinda old and has a weird smell as soon as I enter the room. It’s really noisy at night. A lot of noises next door and rooms on top of you. You can heard they’re walking on the ceilings. I love the lake and everything else.

Mostly great, some room for improvement
Pros: Cute little lake area. Great for couples and families. Food and service at Amalfi was amazing. Jake at the front desk was very friendly and willing to help. Dog friendly. The live music was fun and entertaining. Great that water sports are onsite and somewhat included. They are very strict on giving you your “included” daily activities and try to charge instead. Fire pits and smores galore - love! Cons: Lake water is entirely brown. Residents on the lake have hateful flags up, seems like pretty politically charged and angry residents here. It’s a man made lake in the middle of a bustling city, it’s not exactly a wilderness getaway. We were totally upsold on paying an extra $400 for a lakefront cabin. We weren’t told it was HA…my boyfriend literally couldn’t fit under the shower. The room smelled like must so we called asking for more candles which helped. Went to shower at night and found out the hot water wasn’t working. Maintenance spent the entire next day on our patio with tools and equipment everywhere replacing the water heater and we were now offered another room. The carpeting in the bedroom smelled like pee and the bedroom door was completely off track. In a nutshell - don’t get upsold, don’t be surprised by the pure brown water and residents on the lake, bring some febreeze and your patience :)
