Lake Life

Covered boat parking with pontoon at sunset near Medina Lake

Covered Boat Parking

A dedicated metal-framed carport keeps your pontoon protected from the Texas sun and weather — hitch up and you're minutes from the water.

Medina Lake is just a short drive away — one of the Texas Hill Country's most beloved reservoirs. After years of historic drought, the lake has seen a remarkable rebound. Heavy seasonal rains have pushed water levels up dramatically, restoring the lake to levels not seen in over a decade.

Boating, fishing, kayaking, and lakeside weekends are back on the table. With covered boat parking already on the property, you're positioned to take full advantage of Medina Lake's resurgence.
