We had an amazing stay at this unique Austin property. The home is spacious, beautifully designed, and filled with character—every corner has something special and unexpected to enjoy. There were plenty of comfortable beds, and the house was fully stocked with everything we needed.The grounds were one of our favorite parts. There are so many peaceful spots to relax, as well as great spaces for hosting gatherings. We had a private chef come for dinner one evening, and eating on the gorgeous deck by the pool was unforgettable. The views were beautiful, and the location couldn’t have been better, close to everything while still feeling quiet and serene.We truly loved our time here and would absolutely stay again.

FANTASTIC House

Had my bachelor party in Austin and stayed here with about 15 other friends. It was absolutely killer, better than I expected. The house was great, all the amenities needed were there, and the layout/design was perfect. There are two lounge chairs out on a walkway by themselves that are perfectly positioned to look at the sunset over the ridge when it's getting dark, such a smart design. Jake was great and super helpful, 10/10 would recommend.

Lots of fun

The house is great with a lot of fun stuff to do. We played a lot of pickle ball and shuffle board and enjoyed the pool immensely. The rooms and nice and beds are comfortable. Appreciated the bathroom supplies. Not too far into Austin and enjoyed being up in the trees. The only difficulty we had was with communication for check in. No information to check in was provided until 30 minutes before on the day of check in. I hadn’t been able to reach the manager by phone or email all day leaving us unsure if we even could get in. Eventually we got it worked out and communication was great from that point on.
