Looking for opinions in places to stay for the family. Long weekend getaway. Loga vista nice?
1 or 2 br is all that we need. Pool and access to lake.

Or any other lake type places you recommend within 6 hr drive of Lafayette? Not Toledo bend.
Thanks

I don't have any experience on lake travis.... But I just got back from a weekend in new braunfels. I loved it over there. Greune, TX is right next door with a nice "downtown" area with tons of shops and some good food. In new braunfels is schlitterbahn if you want to do that. You can also float the comal, which was a great time. There are tons of condo type place along the river that you can rent.

I'd suggest taking a look at VRBO.

ETa: also look into the T Bar M resort in new braunfels. There is a pool and other activities for the kids right there on site

Lakeway Resort and spa is nice. I stayed there for a work function a few months ago and very affordable, although the lake has come up quite a bit in the last couple of months. I may have gotten the 'Lake Travis is 65ft low rate'.

If your looking to just relax where you're at, Lake Travis is nice, but anywhere you stay is going to be a pretty good drive to anything city related. New Braunfells has more options (waterpark, float the river, shops, restaurants, etc)
