About this house rental
Immerse yourself in nature at the Austin Glass House. This special home away from home, close to all Austin has to offer, is nonetheless a private hideaway. The verdant property is nestled alongside a spring-fed creek and tree-lined greenbelt that offers access to the beauty of the Hill Country. Featured in the movie Abilene and on HGTV, the one-of-a-kind Austin Glass House is a perfect retreat for couples seeking a romantic escape or those looking for a relaxing getaway.
This architecturally-acclaimed glass-and-steel house is defined by towering 30-foot windows that provide a 360-degree integration with the outdoors. The upstairs bedroom features three decks and an in-room coffee cart is perfect for enjoying your morning brew while watching the sun rise over the wooded canyon below. The spacious downstairs bedroom boasts an open-air shower with three ceiling-mounted shower heads, an oversized jetted tub for two, and glass walls that bring the outdoors inside. Spend time on the peaceful patio, snooze on a hammock, sit by the chimenea, or take a hike on the shady Indian Creek Trail, which offers views of fern-lined grottos and crystal-clear water.
The Austin Glass House is just 30 minutes from downtown Austin and minutes from popular Lake Austin and Lake Travis. Nearby Lakeway offers breweries, wineries, distilleries, fine dining, and other amenities.

Even though the neighbors are close you wouldn’t know it. Felt like a unique cabin in the woods! Definitely would stay here again.

My family and I had a wonderful stay at at the Glass House. It was absolutely beautiful. We were sorrounded by nature, but we we also were able to drive just 20 minutes into Downtown Austin. It is exactly as pictured, but even more stunning in person. It was very clean, and the host included everything you could possibly need. If you are looking for a great "getaway", this is the perfect place. My two teens were perfectly content enjoying the beautifu surroundings and walking on the trail which is a few steps away from the house.

I don't usually write reviews unless they are significantly above average, and this location is amazing. The house, the location, the details...all just amazing. They have thought of everything and skimp on nothing. The bedding is nice, the kitchen supplies are nice, instructions are nice. You don't have 50 million things you have to do before leaving. It was just a wonderful getaway all the way around. We will definitely be back. Thank you.

The property is really fun and the host communicated very well! Place was clean and really cool. Very organized and a lot of kitchen items were provided. Attention to detail was put into it at this property. When staying, make sure to follow instructions for cooling the master as it can get warm with the shower and have a car / suv that can make it up the driveway. It’s really steep but that’s all part of the amazing experience of this glass house. Highly recommend staying and we’ve already discussed coming back. Enjoy!

We stayed in the glass house to celebrate one last weekend of summer before our kids started school. The house was so beautiful. The static pictures, while gorgeous, do not do it justice because everywhere you look is a beautiful wall of moving art. Whether it be the trees moving in the gentle breeze, or the birds and squirrels playing in the amazing rock wall, the views intimately connected us to nature and made for a very relaxing getaway. Can’t wait to come back.

Home is nice clean and secluded. Great views of the surrounding landscape. Every thing in the home had a place as well as plenty of labels throughout. Would recommend to anyone looking for a private getaway.
