Great place to stay

The 6 of us had a great stay! The house was very nice, clean, had everything we needed and plenty of room. We were in town for a wedding and the house location is convenient to The Arlo wedding venue. The host is very nice and responsive. And the bonus was seeing all the deer in the neighborhood! Has a nice outdoor space. Would like to stay again sometime when we can use the pool.

Amazing Stay!

This property is so beautiful and the pool was so much fun to have! The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful and I love that there were so many deer roaming around all the time. The owners were so helpful, kind and responsive. We cooked most of our meals at home and so enjoyed the home. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

Dripping Springs Pool House

This house was great to stay at! Host was super responsive, the pool was amazing, and the neighborhood is very quiet. The house itself was extremely clean and very spacious. We had my two year old with us and there was even a pack n play for her to sleep in. My only suggestion is to get a sofa/love seat for the living room- we wanted to prop our feet up in the evenings :-)

Texas Hospitality and More

This home is not just breath-taking, it is truly AWESOME. The hosts respond immediately to questions or comments. If you want a party-house - this is not what you want. If you want quiet - this is exactly what you want. The home is beautiful, the view is "wow", the pool is definitely a PLUS, and nature surrounds this area. We watched two foxes playing one evening, saw deer every day, and the cardinals greeted us with song every morning. I don't think you will find a better place to stay in Austin.

About the host

Hosted by Rachel and Phillip Rogers

Host profile image
Hi! I'm Rachel, I've lived in the Austin area since 2003 when I moved here to attend the University of Texas at Austin. I only left for 2 years when I joined the Peace Corps in Peru and came right back! I enjoy spending time in the hill country, traveling, reading, and working out. I love my family with husband, 2 kiddos, and cat.

Why they chose this property

This neighborhood is quiet and serene, and it's a dark sky community, which means no city lights. When you drive up the hill to the neighborhood there are amazing views of downtown and the surrounding hills. There are deer and other wildlife, which make this place special, and gorgeous oak trees throughout the neighborhood and property.

What makes this property unique

This acreage is private and wooded, and the pool is surrounded by plenty of greenbelt spaces. There are plenty of areas around the pool for lounging, both in the sun and under the rooftop deck. Head up to the rooftop deck for amazing views or stargazing in the evenings.
