    The home is spacious, clean, and a wonderful private property in a country setting. The location is ideal! Close to major highways, stores, Austin airport and city! We stayed for our daughter’s wedding in Dripping Springs. The host reached out to make sure we had anything we needed throughout our stay and after we checked out! Rudy responded immediately to any questions from the booking throughout the stay. We would love to stay again!! We highly recommend this home, definitely a favorite!

    Such a beautiful home. Very comfortable and had everything we needed. The host was very responsive to any questions we had and instructions for the property were very clear. Our only wish for the property is that we could have stayed there longer. We needed the home for our daughter’s wedding at a nearby venue. We would have loved to fish in the pond and enjoy the fire pit but we were so busy with the wedding. We would love to come back for a relaxing stay and enjoy the comforts of the home and property. We did see some deer running through the yard in the early mornings and evenings we were there, which was a highlight for us.

    Lots of room in this house to spread out and enjoy family and friends. The host was amazing to work with and communicated very well. He checked in with us and made sure everything was going well. Very accommodating. If you’re looking for a quiet place to gather and relax: this is the place.

    This property is beautiful and very spacious. The weekend was for my daughter's girl's getaway before her wedding. There was plenty of room for 12 of us to gather for eating and playing games. Several areas outside to enjoy as well. We had no shortage of places to sleep and plenty of refrigerator space for food and drinks. We even had the wine tour company pick us up at the house. Perfect location. Close enough to all the conveniences and also feeling secluded and out of the hustle and bustle right outside the neighborhood. We had a great time and will stay again if in the area. All the birds and deer were an added bonus. Thanks Rudy!!

    Our family stayed at Rudy's Nest for a family wedding weekend. Great house, spacious, picturesque location, and close to everything in Dripping Springs. The owner was great at communication, access was easy, and the owner very kindly mailed us a dress that we inadvertently left behind, at no cost. Overall, a lovely home in which to spend a few days in Dripping Springs!

    We stayed with 8 of our friends to see the total eclipse. The house is very spacious and well equipped. All was as listed. Rudy always communicated very promptly, I highly recommend this rental property for groups of friends or family gatherings.

    The entire experience was extraordinary! It was easily booked and communication with the owner was exceptional! He even personally came by to bring us more towels and fill us in on the property and local attractions- very hospitable! The house was very clean with lots of room for our entire family… and 5 beautiful bathrooms were appreciated with all of our teenagers! The grounds provided lots of entertainment.. fishing, lots of room for games, and celebrating each day at night around the firepit! We would all highly recommend this property!! Five stars all around!!
