Stayed May 22, 2026Amazing home in a perfect location! It truly feels like a Costa Rican tree house! The property was pristine and clean. The outside deck was also clean and cushions look like they were brand new. Kitchen was well stocked with all the essentials. The large dining table was great to have for game night and dinners. This was definitely one of the best VRBOs we have stayed in and that is saying a lot since we travel often. The communication with our host was a 10/10 with arrivals instructions and her periodically checking in to make sure we were comfortable and all was well. We will definitely stay here again when we visit Austin in the future!

Stayed Mar 7, 2026Our stay at the Glass Treehouse was absolutely dreamy. It's a 5-star setting in a 5-star location. Sitting in the main room with our party of 8, the space felt so airy and spacious. We spent lots of time together in the living room, surrounded by the windows looking out onto the huge outdoor deck space. We also enjoyed cooking in the adjoining kitchen, which had absolutely everything we needed, and gathering around the big family-style dining table.Each couple's room was comfortable and private, and the skylights throughout gave each of these spaces a feeling of luxury.We LOVED the location of this property, and enjoyed that we could just walk out the door and down the hill to find all sorts of adventures. We walked to nearby restaurants, explored the trails all along Barton Creek, grabbed food at multiple foods trucks, and toured the nearby botanical garden. The host, Lisa, was exceptional. She was so kind and conscientious, wanting everything to be perfect for our group. We loved her so much that we even asked her to stop by during our stay so that we could meet her in person!!

Stayed Nov 6, 2025I cannot tell you how amazing the stay was!! It was for my birthday and my children flew in. Not only was the home equipped beyond what I have ever seen before. Organized, anything you needed for cooking or preparing or relaxing, It was there.Lisa the owner checked in the first day to see if we needed or were missing anything- How Great is That!In addition, Lisa has a relationship with a Chef who we hired to come in and make a birthday meal for us. Food was great and Mike was fabulous.The location is ideal for access to outdoor activities, food, entertainment. It was an incredible stay.Staying at VRBO's for last 10 years, The Glass Treehouse and Lisa have surpassed the 5 star and really are a 10. I will honestly have to realign my ever giving a 5 to another VRBO unless it is up to the standard of this rental.We would book here again and again if in Austin.Thank You Lisa!

Everything is perfectly and intentionally placed for harmony and function. The rooms are comfortable and well thought out. Lisa is a fabulous host and made sure we were comfortable and had everything you need. Just in case anyone is in a wheelchair, we were able to bring my Mother in law over and had no problems with her thin wheelchair getting around. My son said, “I’m going to miss this place and I can’t wait to come back!” My husband and I couldn’t have said it better. Thank you Lisa! Best, Jennifer and Keith

Stayed Dec 22, 2024We were disappointed with this vacation rental apartment. While the location and deck space were appealing, the overall experience fell short of expectations. I have been a vacation rental host for 10 years and speak from experience. The listing was misleading: We believed we were booking a single-family home, not an apartment in a duplex. This was a major factor in our decision. The late-night arrival of other guests confirmed this was not a private residence. The listing also falsely advertises a pool.While the apartment does have 5 rooms with beds in them, most would consider only 2 of them to be traditional bedrooms. Of the other bedrooms, two are very small, and the final room is really the TV / entertainment room. There is only space for 2 cars to park. Price to quality poor: while the owner prices based on location and season, for the price we paid (thousand / night), the quality is poor. The linens are worn, the closets lacked hangers, there were no bathmats, the teapot was broken, many doors did not close properly, and the master bathroom toilet is malfunctioning. Excessive pet fee: We had a non-shedding dog in the house for 2 nights and the owner charged us a hefty pet fee outside the norm I have experienced at other rentals. Maintenance items stored in living space: the master closet had paint cans stored in it and we could smell the fumes. Crowded with bric-a-brac: this is an aesthetic opinion, but we found the house cluttered with “decorations”.

Stayed Nov 15, 2024I can’t say more wonderful things about this amazing rental and our time in Austin. We had a group of 7 women (besties from college) traveling from all over the US to reunite for a fun girls weekend. We love to shop, be active, eat good food and listen to live music - making Austin an excellent destination. When we saw this rental on VRBO, we knew it would be perfect. Not only is the decor so incredibly unique, I honestly don’t know if there’s a better rental location in Austin. We were a quick walk to the amazing Barton Springs and Zilker Park. You can even follow an easy walking path into downtown. SoCo shopping and restaurants are a quick car ride away (maybe 5-10 min) as are downtown attractions. Really anywhere you want to go is no more than a 5-10 min ride. The host provided a detailed and thoughtful information packet upon booking to help us get a lay of the land (i.e. restaurants, activities, etc nearby). She allowed for an early check-in for a minimal fee and she was so attentive with her communication. We had some fun hats made for our trip and she let us ship them to her and then she personally delivered them to the rental to ensure we received them. Top notch service! We had a truly memorable weekend whether exploring around town or lounging on the awesome porch. You will not regret booking this rental.
