We were looking forward to a fun and exciting weekend on Lake Travis. When we arrived the lake was closed due to the heavy rain that had been in the area. We decided to make the best of a bad situation and head to the river. We called River Road to see if they knew of any cabin rentals that would accommodate 10 adults. Just our luck, they rent cabins. We thought this was a great idea and booked it over the phone. We were told that all we had to bring was pillows and that it was located on the river. We arrived there and was astonished to find what they charged $450 for... it was in the middle of a junk yard! It was a trailor/duplex. It was the most horrible room (if that is what you would call it) you have EVER seen. We would have better conditions staying on the streets. We walked in and thought that any minute Ashton Kutcher would jump out and say that we were ""Punked!"" The ""cabin"" consisted of 4 filthy mattresses on the floor that looked like they were picked up on the side of the road. There were not any linens to even try to cover up the stains, it was unsanitary. There is ABSOLUTELY no way that would pass inspection. If there were children with us, Child Protective Services would have taken them away from us due to the conditions of the ""cabin."" I have been to the river too many times to count and this really put a damper on things for us. It is such a great time with great people, but this place will definitely deter others from ever returning! The sad thing is that we had to fight to get the charges off our card. We were in the ""cabin"" for less than 5 minutes and left. The outside areas were just as bad as the inside, so there was no way we wre staying there! There are too many nice places along the river that justify $450, this place doesn't even Justify $0.45.
Pros: NOTHING
Cons: EVERYTHING
