The house is beautiful and stocked with everything you could ask for and more. One of the few rentals I have stayed in that went above and beyond with appliances, cookware, and everything else you need, including toiletries if you happen to forget your own! The property is beyond beautiful and captures the natural side of what is definitely one of the busiest cities around. You won't have to travel far to be in the heart of the city, which makes this ideal for quiet getaways, while having access to one of my favorite cities in the country.

It was exactly what we needed. A beautiful relaxing escape, more than we expected. Finding art works around the grounds became a game for us. I highly recommend this slice of paradise.

Absolutely amazing experience. Things to note: Grill works awesome, comes with everything needed Outdoor shower is wonderful. Gets super hot. I did not shower indoors once during my stay hahaha The king bed in the master is incredibly comfortable. Everything was clean, well prepared, detailed, absolutely phenomenal service from David. I normally don’t let lightning strike twice, always look for something new when I visit, but I definitely see myself opting to stay here again on our next Austin visit. We only wish it had a bot tub, seriously, book this place. You will not regret it. Serenity, peace, so much space to yourself. It is so shocking how close to Austin this “outdoor getaway” is. Literally 5 minutes to the bridge, I can’t remember the name, pepper something.. just a phenomenal stay. 19 stars.

We have a ranch outside of Austin so we are used to privacy, seclusion and "not being bothered" when we are in town so this (booking in Austin) was a first. I looked at hundreds of properties and kept finding that all of the houses were just renditions of the others---nothing really notable. Found this house and was a bit hesitant due to it being "significantly affordable". Lesson learned. Gorgeous property, great location (VERY close to town) and very private. The previous reviews for this property have been from people who probably had no business staying in a place surrounded by "nature". If a spider outside on a sidewalk is a deal breaker stay elsewhere. If you appreciate quiet, seclusion and a completely different vibe from your suburban life in a home that is impeccably maintained, well appointed and has green views out of every window then book here. The pool is fabulous (husband wants to replicate something similar) and very unique. An Olympic sized private "mini-lake" is about as good as it gets. While we stayed in the larger Casita there is one smaller one that is also on the property which is equally as awesome as this one (pictures do not begin to give thus place justice). Liking privacy, was worried about this until we saw that both are not visible to the other and both are secluded enough as to not know if anyone is there or not. Overall, cannot underscore how happy we were to have found this place. Hoping to book again in the fall. Thank you David!

Enjoyed our stay at this cute place ! Very eclectic and interesting- host provided everything- plenty of towels, soap - would definitely come back again - bring water shoes

Beautiful, remote location in Westlake Hills. Enjoyed the artwork and sculptures throughout the property. Enjoyed all the manicured trails weaving throughout the property. Really enjoyed the quiet offered by this location.

We came for a girls trip, with the intention of relaxing, hiking and swimming. The home was nice and clean. However the property has overgrown trees/ bushes etc and lots of spiders. Were bitten all over our legs and we didn’t feel comfortable hiking. The pool has not been maintained and we did not feel comfortable swimming in it. Overgrowth, moss, bugs etc plus someone else’s old pool toys. Not the ideal place to book if you are looking for a pool to swim in.

The house is adorable and is perfect for individuals who like the outdoors. Unfortunately, we are not those individuals. We were not told ahead of time we would have to walk down a dirt gravel path to get to the house. We were also not told that driving to the actual parking spot would pose some obstacles. We are very fortunate to have a truck but I would caution anyone from taking a low car to the location. There are walking paths on the property but many of the stairs and surfaces are unleveled and do not have guardrails. It was suggested we wear slip resistant shoes after we arrived. It would have been nice to know that ahead of time. I had to change shoes in the car after leaving the house and then again when we got back. There is no real "yard" for pets to use. I strongly advice anyone who has a senior dog to not stay here. Young dogs can probably handle the property but ours could not. If you like camping or hiking then this is a perfect place for you. If you are not into camping or hiking then I do not think this is for you.
