I cannot recommend Camp Sandy enough. We had the most wonderful stay, and David was the greatest host. He accommodated us with an early check in, late check out, and even sent us cookies during our stay. The grounds are so beautiful, and there are so many things to do. We had a group of 19 adults, and everyone had a blast playing volleyball, pickleball, swimming, kayaking, playing pool, and hanging out. We can’t wait to come back.

Family Birthday Celebration

We celebrated three family birthdays during the July 4th weekend. We had a great time and the house had plenty of room to accommodate everyone during rain events. While some of the rains were heavy and caused some issues, David was quick responsiveness was appreciated by everyone. Definitely would stay here again.

Camp Sandy is great

We had a bachelor party of 11 that stayed there and we all had a great time. The only thing we wished was different would have been the lake actually being full, but since there is a drought in the region the lake was below 50% capacity.

Amazing stay

David was the best Vrbo host I’ve ever had. He was easy to communicate with, had everything and anything you could ever need. I was there for a combined bachelorette party and he gave the best recommendations for food and a party bus. He even delivered a special surprise for us. My friends couldn’t stop talking about the property and everything it had to offer. Would recommend this place over and over again!!

Camp Sandy was the best!

Our group loved playing volleyball, swimming in the pool, playing pickle ball and utilizing all of the activities at Camp Sandy! David and his team were super helpful and communicative. Kim said he was also super convenient in location to downtown Austin and other activities around Lake Travis! If you’re with a large group, it’s very easy to get a ride! Thanks David and Camp Sandy. Can’t wait to come back one day!

David is a gracious and responsive host! He gave a personal tour of the property upon our arrival which was very helpful. The property is beautifully appointed and VERY WELL EQUIPPED! As a group of 17, we had plenty of dishes, towels, toiletries, etc. The lower level game room was fabulous! We had a few brief showers during our stay so we made good use of that space (with 7 kids-it saved the day!) But, the highlight of our stay was the outdoor space. Pool, hot tub, "treehouse", pickle ball, kayaks, fishing, volleyball, etc. No one was ever without something to do! We had a great night making pizzas in the outdoor pizza oven and spent alot of time in the pavilion which has plenty of fans to keep you cool! I cannot say enough about how wonderful our weekend was at Camp Sandy!

Awesome stay at a special property!

We loved our stay at Camp Sandy! David was extremely helpful and communicative from the moment we booked our stay - gave great recommendations. The property itself was perfect for our group of 15 guys, plenty of fun games & activities to do in the expansive yard a pool and hot tub. Plenty of beds for everyone and space to hang out, eat dinner, etc.Very close to marinas and launch points for a boating trip, which we did Saturday during our stay. And easy access to downtown in 20-30 mins.We would definitely highly recommend Camp Sandy for an active group of friends looking for a great place to stay near Lake Travis!

Our stay for a bachelorette party was hands down a perfect weekend. And a lot of that can be attributed to the communication with the owner, David.
