Lakefront! House+Guesthouse+Smoker+Kayaks+Firepit

Welcome to Lucky Ewe at Buchanan Lake! With a main house, a guest house, & a smoke house, you can relax and unwind by the lake, soak up the insta-worthy views and enjoy your refreshing change-of-scenery. The main house and guest house provide perfect accommodations for when you want to be close with privacy. The park-like setting provides direct access to Buchanan Lake. The outdoor firepit is the family favorite spot for making s'mores. We provide propane BBQ plus smoke house smoker, yard games, & plenty of board games...or you can just relax with the lake as your backdrop.

Located 15 miles from Highway 29, this peaceful get-away offers great lakeside seclusion with perfect opportunities for relaxation as well as multiple lake recreation activities.

-You'll have the entire lakefront property to yourself!
-Screened-in smoke house perfect for Texas BBQ :-)
-Private Boat Dock for fishing, playing, and your boat.
-Ask about our boat rental or bring your own boat!
-Community boat ramp just around the corner from the property.
-Kayaks are available for use and stored on the boat dock in racks along the entry plank.

Other things to note
-We allow up to 10 people to stay at the property, but there are only two bathrooms and a total of two queen beds plus a twin over double bunk bed. Other sleeping arrangements are couches and inflatable mattresses.
- Even with our regular pest management services, it's possible you may encounter wildlife and other creatures at this property, including fire ants, scorpions, wasps, and snakes. Enjoy but be careful and stay on our property at your own risk.
-The boat dock has some loose deck boards--Use at your own risk and be careful!
-You are welcome to fish off the private dock, but be careful--There are shallow areas that are not safe for jumping in.
-The window shades make it quite dark for sleeping in, but they are not full black-out.
-There is no closet in the guesthouse, but there is a shelving unit with a place to hang clothes.
-The guest house has one queen bed, large couch, bathroom and kitchenette. The kitchenette has a two-burner countertop stove, toaster oven, microwave, small refrigerator, coffee maker & is stocked with basic cooking supplies.
-The main house has one queen bed (primary bedroom) plus a twin over double bunk bed (pass through bedroom), one bath, a full kitchen with supplies and a dishwasher.
- Enjoy rural Texas Hill Country in this small community on the lake. There is a small market down the street (J & S), but the closest grocery store is about 20-30 minutes away.

The Boys Lake Trip Vacation
Hey there, it’s Jayden a 2 day stay customer! I gather every friend’s(4) opinion to make this review precise and accurate on this place! When we first got there we gave a total of 8/10 and after the stay at this place we gave a total 6.5/10. We will run down the list first problem was the amount of spiders here, second would have been the grill we tried to use spider webs all over and grill was dirt which we did try to clean with the little dirty cleaning brush we found but it was not working well so we abandoned the BBQ grill so we went to the smoker but then again amount of spiders and wasp we said that’s a no go too. Next would be the new pit they have in there back yard with bricks around it so the pictures they have aren’t that much accurate when it comes to the outside specially the lake beach part because it’s a good minute or 2 walk till you get to the water which we were warned about even offered a full refund at first by the main man Tim that owns the place but the interior is pretty much accurate besides that wood bunk bed it was actually a gray metal one! They did have complementary stuff as well in both bathrooms which we all liked, tons of towels too in both bathrooms so no need to worry about that and same with pillows for the beds lots of extra pillows. We had wifi in both guest and main house and the doors have codes for both of them so no key needed. I guess the real question is if we would stay here again? “Less Bugs, More Modern” and “only if I had to”

Good works
I'm conflicted on this review - the property was clean and with lots of sundries and supplies, beds were great, firepiit nice, no complaints, overall very good. However, with the lake withdrawn for years around a half mile from the house, this was not even close to waterfront pic they proudly show on the site. Yes, there was a clear disclaimer in the text, so no bait and switch, but leaving the photo up today with the lake down for years, then placing the disclaimer in to avoid liability, well it just doesn't seem to be upfront. Sort of a marketing gimmick. How easy to just replace the photo so people know what they are getting? Why leave a misleading impression? The house is priced right on by the night on first look but with a large cleaning fee you don't see until you checkout, its a good deal but not a great deal. Its all disclosed but only after you fall in love with the great - while in reality its just good. However these days, Good works.

Great Waterfront Location
This place was perfect. The house was very comfortable, clean, and relaxing. Loved the windows and big sliding door that looked out onto the lake. It was so nice being able to walk out the sliding door to sit on the grass lawn with ample trees around to provide shade. The lake is down, which we knew after talking to the owners, but it was still easy to walk out to the water on a sandy shore. It was quiet and peaceful. Highly recommend this place!

Great get away spot!
All that is advertised! Driveway is a little tight for large vehicles, but manageable. Water was low, but that is a seasonal thing. Would love to go back when the lake is back up to the dock.

Nice Property
Unfortunately, due to the drought, this property is no longer lakeside, and it is difficult to access the water. The home was very clean, comfortable and well-appointed. We spent our time visiting the many State Parks and quaint towns in the surrounding area, so we still had a very enjoyable vacation. Thank you.

Nice getaway
My family and I have a nice time staying here. We liked how there were two different houses on the property so the kids could have their own space. They take good care of the grass so it was nice to spend time outside. The lake was super low which is not reflected in the photos online. They had everything you could want in the kitchen for supplies and loved how they have appletv and cable so we could watch anything. The only issue was the air conditioning and flow into the rooms which made for an interesting sleeping arrangement at times and trying to figure out how to make it work for everyone but they did provide fans to help. I recommended that they also change out the filters. This place made for a nice quick stay for family time!

Grounds, house, guesthouse, amenities - everything was excellent. Lake water down. No private beach.
Property was wonderful. Star gazing over an open fire pit was fabulous. Kayaks & floats were great to have. All docks were resting on ground. Lake water was at least 50 yards away. Very quiet probably because of drought conditions we had not anticipated. Lake Llano & LBJ looked fine. Surrounding properties were eyesores. Most had rundown mobile homes.

We took our teen boys and couple of friends for a lake trip. The property was great. Unfortunately the lake was way low but that is obviously out of the property owners control. The property was exactly as advertised other than the proximity to the water. It was clean and the owners did an excellent job of communicating with us during our stay. It was a great experience and would love to stay at this property again in the future.

This was our 2nd trip to these cabins and we love it here! This time around the lake wasn’t really an option but the place itself is a perfect little get away that’s close to home but feels like you’re on vacation! The staff/management team is very friendly and efficient!

My family and I stayed at this location. We loved the front yard. We sat in the lawn chairs for hours enjoying the view of the lake. We could watch the kids play in the water from the house. Quiet neighborhood and the boat ramp is right across the way. There was plenty of parking for everyone. The house was clean and had what we needed. We would love to stay again.
