Fun house with great location!
We rented this property for ACL Fest 2021 and it was great! The location was awesome. Very easy walk to Zilker. All the decor was fun and funky. The backyard is so private and beautiful. The owners provided a packet of useful information regarding the house and the area and were very responsive before, during and after our stay. The house had everything we needed.....plus!

Fabulous location
You just couldn't ask for a better location - backing up to the greenbelt for fabulous views, sunsets and even the UT Tower! Easy walk to Barton Springs pool and Zilker and even Chuy's and Shady Grove! Lovely friendly neighborhood. House has it's own amazing style - beautiful objects and art. Masterbath shower has full plate glass window (with privacy shade if you prefer), no shower door, no bathroom door and master bedroom slider looks across the beautiful patio and into the living room. Third 'bedroom' is a den with a pullout bed, as stated in the listing, and the pull out is quite comfortable - but only privacy is a curtain from the living room. Privacy is a conscience effort in this house. And, as others have noted, no hanging closet space (one rack with a dozen hangars in the hallway) no dresser space (two VERY small drawers in master bedroom) so if you stay for very long unpacking is a challenge.
But all the beds are super comfortable, linens are soft and wonderful, a whole stack of pillows to choose from and fully stocked toliet paper, papertowels, laundry detergent and even coffee and creamer. Such wonderful thoughtful things to have available. Alden was super easy to work with and always available when needed. Hate to write such a glowing review as want this beautiful house with it's amazing patio and views to be available for us to return.

The perfect stay!
We loved everything about this home. From the kind and attentive hosts, to the beautiful decor, this house is the best! Such a convenient location to everywhere you want to go. We stayed for the second weekend of ACL fest and our family enjoyed the walks to Zilker. We will definitely be back!

The property was in a great location, clean and nice outdoor area to gather to talk and relax.
The home has way to many personal items and clutter. There was no where to hang clothes and all the drawers were full of items of the owners.
There were so many dishes in the kitchen we could not reach to the back or even middle to get the glass most suited for our beverage.
When you rent a place you really do not need all the stuff this place has, they appear to be Estate Sale Shoppers. Too much for my taste. Simple is better.

Beautiful Views Inside and Out
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!

A fascinating home, situated within a short walk to Barton Springs Pool and Zilker park
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.

Lovely home, very nicely appointed and welcoming owners! Highly recommend.
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.

Beautifully decorated home!
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!

Beautiful home in great neighborhood
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!

Fantastic home in fantastic location
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!

Fantastic location!! Comfortable and pleasant atmosphere.
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.😄
