About this Vacation Rental Home:

The Tram House—One of Lake Travis’Best-kept Secrets Perched on a hill overlooking Lake Travis in the Texas Hill Country, this jewel of a house manages to be simultaneously off the beaten-path and at the center of things. As you approach, you'll wind over tree-covered hillsides which drop to the midnight-blue water below, and you’ll get more the impression that you are in the Greek Islands or southern Italy than in Texas.Arriving at the base of the hill upon which the house is situated, park your car, climb into the waiting tramcar—as the name suggests, the Tram House can only be reached by tram—and press the start button. For a minute and a half, your horizon will expand as the tram carries you 210 feet up the 55 degree hillside to the Tram House with its panoramic views of Lake Travis and the Texas sky. The Tram House is built in harmony with nature—it skates in perfect alignment along the slope of the hill, and standing 30 feet high in all areas, maintains ‘treetop’ height. The only house east of the Rocky Mountains that requires a tram to access, this one-of-a-kind architectural gem has been featured in Austin Monthly and Parade magazines, among others.Allowing unobstructed views of Lake Travis with its soaring sailboats, Mansfield Dam and Hudson Bend, the Tram House boasts three private balconies, custom-designed skylights, and corner windows in the living room and bedrooms. The three-level, contemporary-style home is comfortably furnished with all new décor. And while there are two bedrooms, each with a king-size bed, and two-and-a half bathrooms, the house comfortably sleeps four to six people. With its unparalleled views, exclusive location, modern comfort and competitive rates, neighbors and visitors alike rave about the unique Tram House. Come and see for yourself!

Amenities:

The Tram House is nestled in the breathtaking Texas Hill Country overlooking the main basin of Lake Travis, providing access to stunning views of the sparkling blue water, marina facilities and boat ramps, and summer weather for most of the year. When you’ve soaked in all the tranquility you can stand while lounging on one of the house’s three decks, take a hillside stroll to one of the three parks within walking distance: The house is conveniently located between Hippie Hollow and Bob Wentz Windy Point Park; the rugged shoreline of Hippie Hollow provides ample beds of rock on which to sun yourself in this “clothing-optional” park, while Windy Point Park offers a more “family-friendly” area on a grass lawn under shade trees that frame the open waterfront of the lake. One of the chief attractions of this location is its proximity to restaurants and entertainment! For a casual night close to home, watch the spectacular sunset from the patio of the famous restaurant, The Oasis on Lake Travis, situated just two miles from the Tram House, or head only 25 minutes into downtown Austin, the Live Music Capital of the World, to hear some local tunes along the celebrated 6th Street. For convenience, the Tram House is located approximately two miles from both FM 620 and FM 2222, the two nearest motorways, and just 28 miles from Austin-Bergstrom International Airport.
