Retreat from the busy city to this luxurious and secluded Hill Country getaway. Fancy Like at Canyon Lake is a daylight-filled, entertainment-focused, spacious, 3,660 sq. ft experience with resort-like outdoor living and sought-after entertaining spaces. Situated on five private acres, down a tree-lined gated driveway, surrounded by bedding deer, and within minutes of the beautifully blue lake and river for tubing. Location can’t be beat!
Our motto: "You'll want for nothing."
WHAT'S IT LIKE TO STAY HERE?
Imagine a family-friendly high-end resort, with a fully-equipped kitchen, yet completely private and gated, where no one can see you. No need to pay extra for a pool cabana, obey pool hours, or wait for a turn at the shuffleboard table. The experience is all yours. Enjoy luxurious white bath towels and instead of having to call the front desk for that extra toothbrush or razor, it is already placed in each bathroom. At the end of a fun-filled day, sink into a pristine white bed, with ample pillows, for a much needed restorative night's sleep.
