About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
High-end Home on 33 Acres to Roam, Short Drive to Downtown.
This secluded retreat is nestled in the Barton Creek Valley just west of downtown Austin. It is the ideal location for a family or a group of friends to explore all that Central Texas has to offer. Downtown Austin, the hill country, shopping, outdoor recreation, breweries, wineries, distilleries, olive farms and iconic local restaurants are all near by. Great home base to enjoy special events such as UT Football, Formula 1, Austin City Limits, SXSW and countless others.
Events: We can accommodate "events" of 25 people or fewer, total. Weddings, Graduations, Business meetings, etc. An event fee would apply in addition to the rental fee, which would include a staff of one to help set-up, keep-up and clean-up. All non-overnight guests must be off property by 10:00 p.m..
Our home is extremely private at the end of a dead-end street with the nearest neighbor being over 100 yards away. This secluded gem offers star filled night skies with only the sound of night birds, the rustle of the trees and the howl of a distant coyote. Even though you are in the country, downtown Austin is a short 18 mile drive and 9 miles from Dripping Springs' famous dance halls, bars and restaurants. Even better, you can walk to award winning Jester King Brewery and Revolution Distillery.
The house is 6000 square feet overlooking the Barton Creek Valley surrounded by 33 acres of wooded areas and pasture. It can sleep up to 16 people. It has 5 bedrooms plus a theater that can be converted into sleeping area.
You enter our home via a high walled courtyard filled with plants that attract hummingbirds and butterflies. There are several sitting areas in the courtyard, perfect for star gazing at night.
As you enter the house, on the main floor, you will enter the great room that opens up to an outside upper patio overlooking the pool and the Barton Creek Valley. Along with the views, the upper patio greets you with a fire place, seating and dining areas, an outdoor grill and, between March and September, hummingbirds zipping by all day fighting over the feeders! Our very large chef's kitchen, perfect for community cooking, along with a large dinning table make meal time a joy and two dishwashers make cleanup a snap! The breakfast bar sits 4, the dining room table sits 10 very comfortably. You will find a powder room on the main floor along with laundry facilities.
The master bedroom, with its king sized bed is also on the main floor. Also on the main floor are the "Guest Room" with an ensuite bathroom and a king sized bed and the "Moon Room" has two queen sized beds. The master bedroom and the Guest Room have balconies overlooking the pool and the Barton Creek Valley. The Moon Room has a fireplace and access to the courtyard. The main floor guest room is handicapped friendly with a roll-in shower and wall support for transfers.
The top floor features the "Rapunzel Suite", an additional master suite. This room stands alone at the top of a winding staircase for complete privacy. We can add an additional actual queen sized bed into this room in order to sleep 4. The views from the private balcony are breathtaking. The luxurious bathroom will spoil you in comfort.
The pool level floor, accessible by stairs and an elevator from the main floor, includes a guest room with a private bath king sized bed. No balcony but direct pool access for that midnight swim! On this level there is a pool table, mini-kitchen with sink, mini frig and microwave. Additionally, a large format screen in a theater that can also accommodate up to six people with three actual queen size beds, not air mattresses. There is also a full bath in the common area for pool use and those staying in the theater.
Pool level outside has very large poolside patio and lounge area, infinity edge pool and jacuzzi.
Other features include NetFlix, MAX, Amazon Prime, wireless internet, and board games.

5/5 – Luxury, Relaxation, and Entertainment All in One!
Wow—this rental completely blew us away! From the moment we arrived, we knew we were in for something special. The highlight? That incredible infinity pool. The views were absolutely breathtaking, especially at sunset. We spent hours just relaxing poolside, feeling like we were in our own private resort. The perfect place to spend a private 35 year Wedding Anniversary!Inside, the home was immaculate and beautifully designed with high-end touches throughout. The theater room was a game-changer—comfy sectional couch , a huge screen, and surround sound that made every movie night feel like a true cinematic experience. It was the perfect way to wind down after a day of swimming and exploring. There is even a pool table and full size Arcade game.The bedrooms were spacious and serene, the kitchen was state of the art and every space in the house was thoughtfully laid out to maximize both comfort and luxury. Whether we were cooking a meal, watching a movie , or sipping drinks by the pool, everything felt effortless.The host was also fantastic—quick to respond, super helpful, and truly made us feel welcome. You can tell they take great pride in making this home an exceptional experience for their guests.If you’re looking for a place that combines five-star amenities with the comfort of home, look no further. We didn’t want to leave . Highly, highly recommend!

Stunning retreat
I spent a week at this stunning property with my five person leadership team. The house is gorgeous, huge, stocked with essentials and amenities including the incredible pool, hot tub, rec room, movie room, outdoor fireplaces and seating/dining areas, and a gorgeous kitchen. We were a group of five women who each had plenty of personal space as well as our own bathrooms, we cooked most meals at the house and did some grilling, and wanted for nothing in terms of kitchenware. We spent our workdays in the beautiful great room and had plenty of options for individual working spaces. The property manager was outstanding, responding in minutes to any questions and helpful for anything we needed. The best part was that my boss was thrilled with the house and we're already brainstorming a return trip, so I look like a hero for picking the perfect place. Ten stars and I will be back, highly recommend this property for groups, families, work retreats or a local getaway when you need some space and relaxation. We had a fantastic time!

Texas Hill Country Retreat
Our family of 8 adults and 7 children (ages 4-14) spent the 4th of July making new family memories. The location was perfect and the house easily accommodated all of us - having an elevator was a bonus for two challenged with stairs. The pool was beautiful and was enjoyed by all. A 7 year old granddaughter said she “loved she could do a cannonball!” Everything one needed was provided. In fact, my son-in-law made the point to tell me that the kitchen was “the best equipped he had ever encountered in a rental”. A high-end kitchen made meal prep easy for the crowd. The chickens and gathering eggs made the visit extra special for the kids. Kurt was easy to work with and always available, if needed. Since this is Texas a visit in the fall or winter might have given us more of an outdoor experience but for our visit the pool and a chance to spend quality time together sharing, eating, and playing games was perfect. Even fireworks could be seen across the horizon. Thanks Kurt for providing the perfect location.

Magical!
What a treat it was to stay here! We had a group of nine adults and this house had plenty of space for us to spread out as well as several communal areas for gathering together. The house was clean, the kitchen had plenty of supplies, the views were breathtaking, and the hot tub was the cherry on top.
Kurt took it to the next level by walking us through the house, showing us how to use the technology, giving us activity recommendations, and responding quickly over the phone to any questions that came up. He also connected us with a wonderful local driver, which was really helpful because the house is pretty remote.
10/10, would absolutely stay here again.

Fabulous in every way!
The week we spent at this amazing house was fabulous in every way. You will not find a more beautiful home than this one! It had every amenity we could possibly need. The pool and hottub are fabulous and look out over a spectacular hill country view. We had 4 couples comfortably staying in their own bedrooms all with ensuite bathrooms. Kurt (the owner) was so accommodating and stayed in touch with us all week to answer questions and ensure we had everything we needed. He also made great recommendations for restaurants and activities in the local area (easy drives to Dripping Springs and Austin). I highly recommend the easy hike to Hamilton Pool Preserve (make reservations in advance). The added bonus is that Kurt has a few beautiful chickens on his 30 acre estate, who laid fresh eggs for us everyday. This was the highlight of the trip for my 18 yr old daughter who insisted on visiting the chickens regularly! We will be back to this home for future vacations!

Amazing Hill Country Mansion with Views!
We stayed here with our kids while getting the family together for Christmas in Dripping Springs and the house was amazing! You walk in through a beautiful courtyard area and the main floor has the kitchen/living/dining open area, outdoor patio, and 3 bedrooms total (1 being the master suite). The lower floor has a bedroom, theatre room, hang out area, and you walk out into the pool and yard area. There is one additional master suite type room up on the third floor. There is certainly no lack of space for a family and everything was immaculate! The Hot Tub worked perfectly as a “Winter Pool” and the house as a whole was everything we could have asked for as a place to land over the holidays! Our kids are still talking about the hidden pantry as well as the chickens on the property that they could collect eggs from! Kurt, the owner, is so welcoming and friendly, and truly wants guests to enjoy the home as if it were theirs. We give this place 5 stars and will be back again!
