At French Polo Estate, you can escape the bustling city in just minutes to this storybook setting and be a part of the luxurious, operational Victory Cheval Estate. Even as you enter through opulent gates to the manor, you will feel like you've traveled into a different time and place. Gated and bordered with stately white fences, the 88 acres includes a romantic countryside where horses graze near the stables and two enchanting ponds, surrounded by trees, provide homes to colorful ducks, turtles, and occasional geese. Beautifully landscaped, with a stunning pool, and view of the polo grounds, this French style stone chateau boasts 5750 square feet of enchanting architecture.

Enjoy grand luxury with everyday comforts in a home ideal for large groups, comfortably sleeping up to 28 guests.

The formal dining room, which draws you into an era of French opulence, is the perfect space to enjoy food, wine and romance of the evenings spent enjoying time with family and friends. The downstairs offers three bedrooms, a large bunk room, a TV room complete with board games, and a billiards room perfect for a small group to challenge the next winner!

For lovers of the outdoors and romantics alike, the northern 35 acres of Victory Cheval Estate have been designated an Eco-Zone by the property owner.

French Polo Estate

We had a delightful stay in this beautiful property. Plenty of room for all of us, gorgeous grounds, and at this time of year when the temperatures were quite warm, the pool was so refreshing. Located near Manor, Texas, it was only a 20 to 30 minute drive to Austin for any sightseeing that anyone wanted to do. We would definitely recommend this home if you’re in a situation where you have several guests that want to stay together. In our case, we had two families with ample room for everyone to have their own bedroom. If anything needed attention, the property manager was on top of the situation and communication with Walker Property Resorts was absolutely excellent. We loved every moment of our stay!!!

Fabulous large group home

Spacious, comfortable, home, beautiful backyard and pool. Easy sleeping, meal prep and serving for 20. Great location for Austin area events. Patience/understanding required for long, brick drive needing minor repair and high sensivity to even daytime walks on property.

Perfect country spot for large group!

Our group of adult friends gets together every year at a VRBO property. This was one of the best we have had in ten years. The estate is as advertised: large, clean, and near important highways for easy access to both the airport and downtown Austin, as well as north side suburbs like Pflugerville and Round Rock. Walker Luxury Vacation Rentals was easy to deal with and their rules were in place for good reasons. This property isn’t ideal for party-oriented groups; we had a lot of traffic in and out but otherwise kept mostly to ourselves. The locals who tend the property, horses, and nearby buildings are kind and professional. No issues other residents have had. Pool was clean and easily used during daylight hours. WiFi was capable for a few devices (their TV’s, for example) but we did overload it with a dozen laptops. Grounds are beautiful. Thanks to everyone there we had a wonderful week.

Looking to be unbothered by the city lights?

French polo grounds killed it. Positives: Property managers were very friendly and helpful. The house is perfect for a large gathering. 15 minutes from just about everything. The house is built for privacy and relaxation, and is an ideal spot to really spend some quality time with good people. Negatives: Nothing major to report. The long driveway could use some major work, and Uber access is tricky. The gate doesn’t open from the inside if you’re on foot. Advice: Plan some meals at the house, if you run out to grab take out every morning & night, you’re going to lose some serious time at the house. Drive carefully; you’ll be passing through an active horse stable to reach the house. Overall: every rental has its own quirks, and this house certainly had them, but none took away from the experience of a fantastic weekend with friends.

Horses

The property was wonderful seven bedrooms 4 1/2 bathrooms. Perfect for my group. On the property there are many horses to look at. You can even schedule a ride if you want. My only issue was the pool, it was very dirty someone did come, but did not clean the pool. That was the only disappointing part of the trip Would book again.

Walker Weekend

It was a great facility for 12-15 of us to get together to celebrate a birthday. The house had plenty of room for everyone. The weather was great for the pool. We were even fortunate enough to watch part of a polo match from the back patio. Highly recommended.

Family gathering

It is a great house for a large family gathering and we had a wonderful time. The kitchen is well equipped. It has a great view of the polo field (and some pretty cranky horse people as well, which is unfortunate). The host was reasonably responsive. The house itself is expansive and is in moderate shape. Some of the features are outdated, but none caused us to have anything less than a great time. Most of the beds were comfortable and the bunk bed room was perfect for younger family members. One of the mattresses in the downstairs bedroom near the buck room was quite uncomfortable and caused one family member back issues for a day. Changing beds solved the problem. The grounds are lovely albeit in need of a little care. The gas grill eventually worked - the electric starter needed to be coaxed quite a bit and the drawers below the grill were full of water. The pool was quite nice and the walk around the property was enjoyable. Internet was ok, some streaming was spotty. All in all, we would come back again and know if you are considering this venue for a family gathering, you will not be disappointed. Finally, the barn cats are quite friendly, but be cautious if fleas.

Amazing location

The location and size of the house is amazing! We had incredible views when outside and all the necessities were onsite that we needed. The only negatives were that the Wifi didn't work at all the entire weekend and the pool was incredibly murky and we had to ask them to come out and try to assess and fix the issue (which was unsuccessful).

Exceptional Property and House

We had a group of 19 women stay here for a college reunion. Our experience was nothing but fabulous. We felt like royalty from the moment we pulled through the gate. The property is beautiful and the house is well maintained and very pretty. The back patio was a great for relaxing by the pool and wine nights under the stars. You truly don't feel like you are in a rental property. Could not have had a better experience! Only down fall was the pool bring a tad dirty, but it didn't bother us too much. Uber's took a bit to arrive, however that's expected with the home being located about 25 mins from W 6th Street and South Congress. Regardless we didn't have an issue leaving or returning home. Highly recommend this property to anyone who is looking for an escape away from every day life!

Spacious Home

We enjoyed our stay at the manor. The space was spacious enough to accommodate a large group - about 27 people. The kitchen had everything we needed. The backyard was a huge hit. We enjoyed grilling our food, hanging out in the evening near the pool and the kids loved the pool!! For the most part, the property was tidy and clean. When we walked in, however, there was dirt and plant remains in the entryway. The pool was not clean or ready for use. We had to have the pool clean, but the process was quick. Wasn't a huge deal. The AC in the rooms did not cool enough. We were really hot in our rooms, but the the AC in the main living areas was amazing! It would be good to post more accurate photos of the property and detail what rooms have restrooms and where all the restrooms are located. I was not sure going into the home where the restrooms were or how many bedrooms had their own restrooms. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would definitely return to the property. I would recommend this place for large groups who just want to get away and have everything they need in one place! Customer service was wonderful and the manor is beautiful!

Quarantine Vacation

We spent a nice 4 day 3 night vacation! They provide you with everything all you need to take is clothes. Our only issues were the pool wasn’t clean when we first arrived, the water got clear until our 2nd day stay. Also the backyard lights were not working. Other than that our stay was perfect!
