Very nice location, beautiful home.

This house is in a beautiful setting comfortable clean and peaceful. While enjoying the serenity above the green belt , Barton Springs and wonderful restaurants are down the hill a few minutes away. We are returning soon to this wonderful home.

We had a great stay at this property. They owners were very helpful with the information they provided before our stay and were easy and fast with communications. We had NO trouble with the home and it was clear that they take very good care of it. This was exactly what we were looking for. Thanks!

The home is full of charm, and situated in the Barton Hills area. The colorful Southwest vibe extends throughout the home. The decor is eclectic, ranging from fossils to fabulous mineral specimens, and from modern art to funky cool glassware. Our family of 9 - several of whom live close by- gathered at the house, and we were able to enjoy dinner on the outdoor patio overlooking the Barton Springs Greenbelt. All enjoyed the home and surroundings immensely. The home is situated within a 15 minute walk to Barton Springs pool, and a few minutes more brings you to Zilker Park, Ladybird Lake, and great views of Downtown Austin just across the water. Highly recommended as a fine place to stay in Austin. I know we will be back.

We really enjoyed our stay! The house wasa peaceful haven. The Schillers’ hospitality was outstanding. Thank you for sharing your home.

Great, quiet location. Centrally located in Austin. Owners were great communicators and made everything easy. Would definitely stay again.

Beautiful home and enjoyed being in a wonderful neighborhood with a secluded and peaceful atmosphere. GREAT location which made a big diff for our stay. It would be 5 stars if the other bedroom had comfy beds and the office bed was also more comfortable. The master bedroom was perfect with an amazing shower that felt like you were outdoors with large open and private windows. A water feature (hot tub, pool) was missed being in TX even during Springtime, we would have really enjoyed being able to sun and cool off now and then. Even so we made it to Barton Springs Pool a few times to make up for that. The hosts are very responsive and cared about our experience. Best for a couple or family of 4.

The Schiller's home is a beautiful property and has so many works of art we kept noticing new ones all week. It was the perfect place for the 6 of us to spend the week of my brothers wedding. They had everything ready for us and even bought some extra clothes hangars we requested. The terrace outside is as beautiful as the pictures. There was room for all of us to sleep comfortably, have family time and for my husband to have some private space to work in the morning. We would definitely stay there again next time we visit!

This is such a lovely, charming home in my favorite area of Austin. The hosts were laid back and accommodating. It’s very close to Zilker Park and everything you want to see in Central Austin, but in a secluded neighborhood. The home’s decor is unique, artistic and very ‘Austin’. Clean, private and cozy with a great woodsy view; the kind of house I dream to own someday. Thank you!

We have stayed in many VRBO homes around the country and abroad, but this amazing home in Austin tops them all! The house is beautiful and the setting is perfect. The deck and back yard is secluded and serene. The whole place is like your own private sanctuary. Yet you are literally just minutes from Zilker Park, Barton Springs, and downtown Austin. We had our bikes with us and we took daily rides to all those locations. And to top everything off, Alden and Barbara are the most gracious and accommodating hosts!

We had a wonderful week staying here. This is our third trip to Austin for family get together while staying at a HomeAway location, and we plan to return to this house next year. The location is fantastic if you have multiple ages. Nearby Zilker park is great for a nice run or walk. Barton Springs has the swimming area right next to a great playground for kids. Kayak rental right there too. All in walking distance! Downtown just a little bit more of a hike or a very quick drive. House was great too. Eclectic and fun vibe with comfortable open plan living. Beautiful back yard. Just make sure to bring bug spray if you’re visiting in wet season.😄

We had a lovely stay. Very well equipped kitchen, great living/social areas. Loved the personal appointments.

Perfect getaway for us, did lots of walking, explored the area. Good food and music close by, wonderful view. Highly recommend to a couple wanting some R&R.

Our family enjoyed our stay in this beautiful home. It was well equipped with Linens, Towels and everything you need in a kitchen for cooking. It was in a nice quiet neighborhood and close to downtown Austin and many other local places. The owners were very friendly and included a nice information packet on the house and recommendations on places to go visit and places to dine out. We definitely would stay here again on future Texas visits. Thank You for sharing your beautiful home! Scott and Jane

The photos do not do the house justice. The living room is a very spacious 'open concept'. Fantastic patio and very quiet neighborhood. Convenience store a few blocks away and plenty of other grocery stores nearby. Barton Springs pool is a quick 10 minute walk. The owners are very friendly, accommodating and hospitable. I would HIGHLY recommend staying here.

Spent a weekend in Austin to celebrate 30 years of being alive with 5 other family members. Great location, great memories made

We stayed at the Schillers' house in Zilker for almost a week during wedding festivities in the Zilker neighborhood for my son and his bride. The Schillers' property could not have been more perfect for the four of us on the "rehearsal dinner advance team." The location was perfect -- convenient to everything we planned to do. The Friday night rehearsal dinner was at Zilker Club House; the Saturday night wedding was at the Umlauf Sculpture Garden, and on Sunday we had breakfast tacos at Torchy's, swam in the Barton Springs pool, drove north for dinner at Uchiko, and returned to downtown to watch the bats at sunset fly from the Congress Avenue Bridge. We enjoyed walks in the neighborhood every day -- green and safe. Since we were in wedding mode, Alden set up (without having been asked) an extra clothing rack in the hall -- very helpful! All of our communications were easy, honest, and hospitable. We used the two bedrooms and the study with the extraordinarily comfortable sofa bed. We had everything we needed. It's impossible to convey how interesting and delightful we found the Schillers' interior decor, their collections of original art and minerals, or how lovely the terraced outdoor spaces in the rear of the house. We'd book again, but would hope to meet Alden and Barbara in person this time. Their house and their hospitality really felt like a home away from home!

We rented this house for a reunion among a group of girlfriends from graduate school and it was perfect for our needs! The house is lovely, with beautiful outdoor space and very close to Barton Springs. The study served well enough as a third bedroom with the pullout couch and the kitchen was well equipped. Communicating with the owners was easy and pleasant and they were very accommodating. I would definitely book again if I was in the Austin area!

Gorgeous views, great layout for gathering, talking, playing, eating, and communicating with loved ones and friends

Our family celebrated Thanksgiving at this beautiful home. A perfect place for such an occasion. The home is artistically decorated and absolutely well equipped. All we needed were our own food to cook and accompanying beverages. The location is superb, nestled on a hill, overlooking a small "forest" of live oak and other greenery. There are terraced sitting areas with lovely views. The owners were very helpful and provided excellent information as needed. We would definitely stay there again and highly recommend this rental.

Exceptional, well equipped house/home in a high cliff area close to downtown and local parks. We and our long time friends from NYC had a great time. Owners are very accommodating, hope to return in the future. On this trip we rented 3 different homes in the hill country and this house was by far the best.

It's a beautiful home, very spacious. The home is right near Barton springs pool & Zilker park, & very close to downtown Austin. We stayed for 3 nights during ACL. We were really close to Zilker park, and able to walk to the festival each day. The outdoor patio is awesome with several levels, a large dining table & sitting area on one level, & a fire pit below on a lower level with more seating areas. Definitely going to stay here again.

Everything was perfect and just as described. Would definitely come again.
