The property was accurately presented in the description. It is spacious, comfortable, and very clean. The hot tub is in good condition. It has a yard and secure parking. It is in a nice, quiet, neighborhood. There is an excellent, dog-friendly, Italian restaurant nearby (Patrizi's), so you don't have to leave the area for dinner. I will strongly consider booking here for future trips to Austin.

We really enjoyed our time at the Retreat! Steve was very responsive and thoughtfully left welcome snacks for us upon arrival. The hot tub was a big hit with our kids, and we spent time every day sitting in the yard enjoying the breeze and nature. The house was clean and well kept, and the neighborhood is in a great quiet location.

The location is good for Bee Cave and Austin with lots of places to eat and shop. The owner left some breakfast options for us, which was nice. There were only 4-5 forks so we had to wash them after every meal. The hot tub water was a little smelly so we only got in it once. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

Great Home And Place To Stay In Austin

Spent the weekend in Austin with family at this wonderful home. The home was clean, in great shape, and everything was as described in the listing. The neighborhood where the home is located is quiet and provides a great place to explore Austin from. The Host was very communicative and accommodating during our stay. Additionally, he provided us with some breakfast food and water which was greatly appreciated. This is a great place to stay and when we’re back in Austin we will definitely stay here again.

Weekend getaway for my birthday weekend

We absolutely loved The Retreat! When we arrived we were greeted with birthday decorations and cupcakes from the host. The host is a really great guy, very personable, accommodating, and approachable. We felt very safe here and it was very homey. Added bonus with all the music themed decorations as we are a musical family. Also loved how welcoming he was to our dogs who don’t get out much. Can’t find a lot of true dog friendly places so that was great! Wish we got to stay longer and would absolutely stay again when in Austin!

Very clean, comfortable house.

The house was very clean and well cared for. The hot tub in the yard was welcomed after running the Austin marathon. We met the owner briefly, he was very nice. He left breakfast food and water which was very kind. The property is gated in at night. It’s about a 20 minute drive from downtown. There’s a cool coffeehouse in the neighborhood.

Lovely house, friendly and helpful owners

The relatives we came to visit were only a block away so this was the perfection location for us. We enjoyed the hot tub! The house had 3 bedrooms, 2 up, 1 down, is located in a very nice residential area, has a beautiful fenced yard, sweet sounding chimes in the tree. Everything was lovely. No complaints at all, although one observation is I haven't slept in a double bed in years. New pillows and a new mattress for the bedrooms would make this perfect! Thanks for a very nice stay in the perfection location for us.

Austin Getaway Weekend

The Retreat was an absolutely amazing property. The house was secured with a gate, impeccably clean, beautifully decorated, incredibly comfortable, and very spacious. It was located in a peaceful and pleasant neighborhood. During our stay, we resided in the main house with our two small dogs, and they thoroughly enjoyed the expansive backyard. The property also features two additional bedrooms and another bathroom upstairs, making it an ideal option for families with children or larger groups. We were there for golf, and the house is inside 20 minutes from UT Golf Club, Falconhead GC in Lakeway and Omni Barton Creek. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking to get away to Austin.

We had a wonderful weekend getaway. The house was comfortable and had everything we needed. The yard is beautiful and spacious. It was perfect for our dogs.
