Had a great time on the water. Had Jacob as our Captain. He was very personable and took the time and patience to show my friends how to wake surf, which neither had before. They all got up surfing in a minutes thanks to his coaching. Definitely would repeat the experience.

Had a great time on the lake! Captain Charlie was awesome and very knowledgeable in instructing the more novice boarders/surfers in our group. And the boat itself was super nice and clean and threw a good wake for use to play around in!

Capt Jacob was great! The boat was perfect. We had a blast on the water surfing and then partying back in the cove.

We had such an amazing day with Jacob! Great communication leading up to the day and he a great driver and instructor!!! We all learned great info surfing with him and can’t wait to come back

We had an amazing experience with ATX Sports! We spent four hours out on a speed boat and had an absolute blast tubing and wake surfing. The boat was in great condition, and our captain was fantastic—helpful, prompt, and gave clear, encouraging instructions that made everyone feel comfortable and confident. It was the perfect mix of fun and relaxation. Highly recommend ATX Sports for anyone looking for a great day out on the water!

Wonderful time on the water!! Beautiful way to see sunset! Craig was a great tour guide!
June 2026 • Birthday Party
Best boats on Lake Travis! We had an amazing time out on the water, Jacob was an amazing Captain, and helped everyone get up on a board! The boats are clean and brand new. Sound system was bumpin.

If you’re renting a boat in Austin, stop looking and book with ATX Boat Rentals on Lake Travis. Jacob personally captains and leads the tours himself, which makes the entire experience completely stress-free and relaxing. We didn’t have to worry about driving the boat, navigating, or planning routes — he handled everything so we could just enjoy the day. His local knowledge made the experience next level. He mapped out the perfect day on the lake based on exactly what we wanted to do, and then added his own expert recommendations that made it even better. We hit all the best spots and had an unreal time. What really blew us away was that Jacob didn’t just help with the boat day — being a local, he sent us a full Austin game plan for our entire stay. Restaurants, activities, live music, comedy shows — everything. Every recommendation was spot on and genuinely elevated our trip. Can’t say enough good things. If you want an epic Lake Travis day and insider Austin recommendations, Jacob is your guy. 10/10 experience.

I had a great experience renting a boat from ATX boat rentals! The boat was really nice & well kept. Our captain Jacob was very knowledgeable about boating safety and was very successful when he taught my friends & I how to surf behind the boat! The booking process was very easy & the whole experience was great! I will definitely be renting from them again! If I could give 6 stars I would!
June 2026 • Birthday Party
Tess is the best! No seriously, such a fun boat captain! I would go again. The company makes the rental process super easy, highly recommend.
June 2026 • Bachelor Party
We loved our experience! Our captain, Tess, was the best!! She kept safety first but also was super fun and friendly. We would absolutely rent again and recommend to others.
June 2026
Our second visit with Jacob - we’ll be back again - really enjoyed our experience.
June 2026 • Bachelorette Party
Tess was the BEST! Couldn’t recommend ATX Boat Rentals or Tess more. We used them for a bachelorette party & it was a blast. She was so accommodating, fun, & chill! Adore her and will use her again.
June 2026 • Bachelorette Party
We came for a bachelorette trip and had a wonderful time!! Our captain Tess was so prepared and made sure we had everything we needed to have a good time! Would definitely recommend!!

June 2026
Super wonderful communication and service. Boat is beautiful and captain jack Phillips was a super host. Highly recommend..and 6 stars if we could
June 2026 • Holiday Party
If there were a 6-star option, that would be my real rating. Jacob and his team are second to none. I’ve never met a better instructor for beginners. He got my wife up on the second try and she’s never been on a board before. On top of that he’s one of the most laid-back, easygoing guys you’ll meet. Every time I come to Austin, booking with Jacob is a must because it’s always one of the highlights of the trip. We have the best time every single visit. Highly recommend — book it, you won’t regret it.
June 2026 • Holiday Party
Jacob is the man. Great day on the lake with my family and he helped teach us how to wake surf!

ATX Boat rentals was Awesome! The boat was awesome and the captain did a great job and was entertaining. Totally recommend!
June 2026
Went with ATX this weekend on Lake Travis. Had a fantastic time. Our captain, Cat was a blast. Very patient and very safe. She taught us how to wake board and gave us plenty of time to see much of the lake as well. Highly recommend this company and Captain Cat.
June 2026 • Birthday Party
Incredible customer service and a huge highlight of the trip. Tess was an awesome boat captain and the boat itself was pretty awesome. 10/10!
June 2026 • Group trip Party
ATX Boat Rentals showed us a great time. As a group unfamiliar with Lake Travis, we relied on their expertise and they did not disappoint. If you're in the area don't hesitate to give them the business.
June 2026 • Group trip Party
Jacobs got a great service going. I’ve used him four times with small and large groups and the experience has always been 5 star.
June 2026 • Bachelorette Party
Captain Brandon and ATX boat rentals were amazing! Super easy to park and access the boat, and very skilled driver. Slide was super fun and we thoroughly enjoyed our day. Would give 10 stars if the platform allowed it!
June 2026
Captain Brandon was so fun!! We were out in Austin for a bachelorette trip and he did such an amazing job making sure the bride and the bridal party had so much fun and a great time! He even helped a boat nearby with anchoring and making sure they were good to go before we left. Highly recommend!!!!
June 2026 • Bachelorette Party
Brandon gave us an amazing experience for my sister’s Bach!! He anchored us in the party cove area and let us listen to whatever we want and spend all day out on the water. He then took us boating for an hour around the lake and it was a great way to end the day! Thank you, Brandon!
June 2026 • Bachelorette Party
My bachelorette party weekend was even better with this service. They even helped another boat in a pickle. They are great! Choose them.

June 2026 • Just a Good Time Party
Jacob was a great captain! Very personable and a great driver. We have surfed before so didnt need lessons. Picked us up on time and had zero complaints. Had a super fun time!! Thanks Jacob!
June 2026 • Birthday Party
Once in a generation, you meet someone that truly takes your breath away. That person was our driver today, Hunter. Fantastic doesn’t begin to describe what a driver he was. His knowledge of the waves and overall demeanor was five star all the way.

HUGE thanks to Jacob for an epic 4th of July weekend! We had a group from all parts of Austin and this place had everything you would need for group activities, or even some alone time to recharge a bit! - Want to play some hectic outdoor games? No problem! There's an entire volleyball court with sand (YES A VOLLEYBALL COURT), spikeball and even a cornhole set literally right next to it with everything overlooking the lake. We ended up bringing our own Beersbee set (look it up if you haven't heard of it cause it's AMAZING) and the sand made for some crazy diving plays. - Need a break from the games or just watch to watch? There are plenty of outdoor seats near the games and these sit-down spinny hammock things right in the shade! Trusssst me on those hammock things in that they're the BEST seat in the house and that you're liable to get stuck for HOURS in one of those things. - How about something even further from all the games to just read a book or something? I got you! There are hanging seats along the upper deck that you can even set up an outdoor fan to keep yourself cool - Okay I get it the outdoors is awesome but what about inside? Besides the 'super farmhouse chic' aesthetic (not my words I swear), you're looking at the most comfortable couch in the world, every cup, dish, spice, and kitchen knick knack you'd need, and an entire separate downstairs with a POOL TABLE when you want to stay cool indoors. There are even a bunch of random board games for use. Yeah I'd say you're set indoors too. - What about sleeping arrangements? For you know.. sleep? Because we had a mixed group with different bed times, a couple couples, party people, and early risers, we allocated the beds based on each. The bunk bed room was for.. you guessed it, the party people! There are even a couple floor mattresses to use or you can bring an air mattress or two with their own in room bathroom or one right in the hallway. The second bedroom was perfect for a couple with maaaybe room for a small air mattress if you wanted to include another person. The first bedroom is on its own in the separate downstairs area which was perfect for our early sleepers and/or early risers. Since the pool table is downstairs too, we just made that off-limits at night. All in all, this is a great place to stay and I fully expect this place to be fully booked months and months out. If you see it available, BOOK IT. You will not regret it!
June 2026 • Just a Good Time Party
What an incredible property. Perfect location for my 50th birthday party. I rented some jet skis and it was very easy to get them in the water. The house is a top/bottom duplex, which worked out well for a summer party; the bottom floor stayed cool even with all the high-traffic upstairs. The volleyball court couldn't be better, we were able to play well after dark and plug in our own music. The patio was the main draw and had plenty of shade. Jacob was relaxed and helpful, and his dog Pepper joined us for the festivities (which the kids loved). I'm planning on making this a birthday tradition. Thanks, Jacob!
June 2026 • Bachelor Party
Incredible house and service! From the minute we walked in throughout the stay 5 star service. Having a vacation home myself I picked up on the little details that went into this property including nice bedding, towels, kitchen supplies Bluetooth surround sound speakers, ext. The location was unbelievable with outdoor area to relax. Vollyball set up was impressive and great way to celebrate with some close friends. Jacob was a great host being available if needed and all around was a great experience.
June 2026 • Bachelor Party
This house was great! We had 12 adults in our group and never once did we feel like there wasn't enough space. The house had everything we needed for a fun weekend -- from the outdoor games, the lighted volleyball court (which was well kept), to the stocked kitchen/the extras inside...it had it all. Jacob was accommodating and quick to respond. We also rented a boat from the owners company which departed/arrived right from the dock located at the Airbnb so we did not have to drive anywhere to meet them (huge plus). Would definitely recommend this Airbnb to my friends/family.
June 2026 • Bachelor Party
This listing is great! My party and I really enjoyed ourselves. There wasn't anything this property didn't have. The proximity to some of the best golfing in the area in addition to the quality of the premises should put this at the top of anyone's list if they are coming in to the Austin area. Just steps away from the lake, I can imagine this place is equally if not more wonderful during lake season! Food proximity is also great, there wasn't anything we couldn't UberEats or GrubHub if we really got hungry and the local vodka distillery is a must do! Great property and location, whether you are looking for something relaxing or more activity filled this listing offers both!
June 2026 • Bachelor Party
This is an amazing property! It was the perfect place to spread out, play games, enjoy the sights, and we took a trip into downtown. Jacob and his mom were gracious and communicative hosts. We did the boat rental with Jacob as well - he’s a great captain and we loved the wake surfing. Ten out of ten would recommend!
June 2026 • Bachelor Party
This place is an amazing to stay for the weekend, plenty of amenities to enjoy, great views and great living space. We were here for a bachelor party and even though the weather was cold and windy we still had a great time sitting by the outdoor fire pit and cooking on the grill. Highly recommend for a weekend getaway.
June 2026 • Bachelorette Party
This place was perfect for a birthday celebration for me and my friends. Communication with the hosts was easy and they were very responsive to questions. The home had all of the amenities you could want plus extra. You can tell a lot of thought was put into making it fun and comfortable. There was so much to do both inside and outside the house for everyone! Would definitely stay again!
