Awe-inspiring with a mystical mojo, La Casa de Joy was designed with exacting intention by an artist and healer who’s paintings can still be found on the enchanted walls of this one-of-a-kind lakefront masterpiece. Drawing on the principles of Vastu and Feng Shui, La Casa de Joy’s pampering pulse brings all who enter into perfect alignment – body, mind, and soul.
Recently featured on CBS’s show “Staycation,” La Casa de Joy is our awe-inspiring lakefront 1-bed, 2-bath luxury straw-bale villa on Lake Travis. Drawing on the principles of Vastu and Feng Shui, this masterpiece of a home was designed with exacting intention, and the mystical vibe is felt in every little thoughtful detail. La Casa de Joy was also once featured on HGTV’s Straw with Style, Designing Texas, and was the cover feature for Natural Home Magazine.
Upon entering the ground’s front entrance, you are met with an expansive view of the entire property, sounds of the zen koi pond, and a glimpse and faint smell of the organic herb and vegetable garden. Walk through antique door and soaring entry way into the downstairs main living area showcasing 35 ft. ceilings and a towering cornerstone fireplace, sunken seated coffee/sitting lounge, & fully equipped chef’s kitchen. Upstairs you’ll find a stunning large master bedroom with queen size bed, a cozy study, master bath with dual sided fireplace (take a bath by the fire!), and a spiral staircase leading to the 3rd floor meditation room & viewing tower. You’ll be naturally drawn through the back doors and on to the delightful covered porch with a fireplace, porch swing, sound of the wind chimes, gorgeous views of the lake and epic sunsets, and the palpable feeling of being immersed in nature.

The property was amazing, it's a magical place where time stands still, and you can truly relax. It was clean, well-supplied, and easily accessible. The backyard is large, shaded, and you can enjoy a peaceful view of the lake through the trees. We will definitely come back again

We really enjoyed our stay. The bath tub upstairs felt so good to soak in after a long day. The handle of the silverware drawer was missing and it’s a very minor thing. Great location!

My husband and i completely enjoyed our stay. We both work from home and needed a change of pace. We worked from the house 2 of the days and spent the rest of the time chilling. It was quiet, restful and the owner helped us arrange mobile massages. Totally worth it. We have discussed coming back

Mystical Romance
My wife and I stay at many properties. This is the most unique, instantly comfortable, chill vibe house we’ve enjoyed so far. This is a house with a personality, a very cool, laid back personality. Yes, it’s awesome to have river access for paddleboarding on the Pedernales. Yes, it’s awesome to have the Stone House vineyard 2 minutes down the road. Yes, it’s awesome to have several great restaurants in the area. All the big pluses you’d expect from a quality VRBO experience. That said, we didn’t wanna leave the house! Deep tub. Two indoor fireplaces. Outdoor fireplace built into the stonework porch. Terrace after terrace of live oaks leading down to the river. Hot tub perched among the live oak canopy. 3rd story yoga tower balcony also perched amongs the live oak canopy?!? It’s weird that I just wrote those words, but it’s true! In addition to the excellent property, Travis is an equally excellent host. Responsive, informative and attentive, he truly added enjoyment and peace of mind to the overall experience. Easy five stars. Kudos and thanks, Travis. We usually don’t repeat visits to properties because there are so many new ones to try, but in this case we’ll eagerly make an exception.

Couples Getaway
We had stayed here once before and loved it. This time, the area was much busier. The house next to the bedroom had people celebrating past midnight and played a game like cornhole but with metal rings. That clinking noise went from about 3pm until after midnight. I was so glad we weren't staying another night. As beautiful and peaceful as the house and grounds are, the surrounding areas are not. We wanted to see the deer more but that didn't happen due to how busy things were. For the price, we will not be doing it again. When paying quite a bit of money for two nights, it was not worth it unfortunately.

Great Property for small gatherings
We had booked this place for a getaway weekend + a small gathering of friends (25-ish ppl). This place was great! We were a bit worried about having to be outside (in the August heat) but we ended up having plenty of room inside for people to hang, mingle, and eat. The property manager was very communicative and very helpful throughout the process (even while onsite). I highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a nice Hill Country get-away!

Lovely House & Property!
All in all this was a great experience! There's so much room to explore and relax. We didn't know the water levels were so low that the dock wasn't even touching the water & it wasn't deep enough to swim, which was the main reason we wanted to be there so that was disappointing. I'm sure it's so lovely when the water is higher.

One of the Best Stays in the Austin area!
We had such an amazing time this last week. We were using the property for a creative day retreat for artists & we were incredibly inspired by the location and the home itself. The property was incredible & was above and beyond our expecations & the home has so much character. Travis the owner has some of the best communication we've experienced with VRBO and we will absolutely be back!

Relaxing Getaway
We stayed in the Casa De Joy which is a little more secluded from the smaller cabins. Nice house with lots of eclectic character on beautiful property with easy access to the water. House is clean with all the basics you would need, including full kitchen. Tons of windows for great views (no blinds or curtains in the upstairs bathroom FYI). Water is a short walk down a hill with some non-motorized water toys for rent. Cute winery just a few minute drive away, and maybe 15-20minutes from some restaurants which are easy to get to. Owner was very responsive to messages and accommodating. Would recommend this property if you want a few days away to relax in a calming environment.

Immaculate, beautifully decorated getaway
From the moment you step on the property you are surrounded by a sense of serenity and beauty. Entering the house, you are immediately struck by the classic southwestern architecture and carefully selected decorations that span cultures from the world over. Stepping out the back door, you walk onto a back porch offering a view of the landscaped hillside that slopes down to the Padernales River. Further down the hillside are two different patios, one stone and one wood, offering their own charming views of the river and amenities. Kayaks, standup boards and canoes provide an opportunity to paddle on the Padernales downstream to the Colorado River or upstream to the Padernales canyon, each with its own unique landscape. All of this is located far away from the city. This place was clearly designed to offer a peaceful getaway and it succeeded beyond our expectations.

Gem with great energy
I loved this property. It is not furnished like many rentals with cold cheap thrown together furnishings. It is furnished lovingly by someone with heart. It feels like a home. The architectural details are wonderful. The surroundings on the property were lovely. If you love quirky interesting places, you will adore this property. There were so many charming places to sit or eat or simply read a book. I was there a week and never took advantage of all of them.
The manager of the property was very easy to communicate with and very responsive.
I highly recommend this property for couples. Although note that the many beautiful windows have no coverings and there are several other rental properties very near.
The dock on the river was lovely and there were candle holders all over. The kitchen was well appointed and the place just had overall good vibes.

A fabulous refreshing stay!
Thanks so much for a wonderful stay in your beautiful property! Todd is the ultimate host- making us feel so welcome & comfortable. Our every need was thoughtfully planned for. It was so great to find dish and laundry soap, shampoo and shower gel, toilet paper and paper towels, coffee and kitchen necessities! The ornate fireplace bathtub is a spa experience! The artistic decor is endlessly entertaining as you notice a surprise around every corner. The lush green environment is so refreshing. We enjoyed the floating dock cabin and caught perch, bass, catfish, and sunfish. (They were quickly released after a photo!)
The neighborhood was lovely to walk in, and deer, birds, squirrels, and butterflies kept us company! We will treasure our memories of this trip, and hope to return soon and rent the whole property for our extended family. God bless!
