The Retreat

Steve was a great host. The house had everything we needed. It was a nice quiet neighborhood, we felt safe and it was only about 20 minutes away from the hustle and bustle of downtown. Communication was awesome. Any questions we had he answered promptly. We enjoyed our stay for a long weekend.

Such a beautiful property, and Steve was a wonderful host! Steve takes a lot of pride in making sure your experience is top notch - clean house, great communication, quick to respond to questions and easy going. The house is close by to some great restaurants and some trails. We had about a 20 minute drive to downtown and spent a day down there. Definitely recommend The Retreat!

Absolutely amazing place to stay!!! Great location & the property had everything we needed! Even the welcoming snacks were a special touch after our long road trip. Steve was a fantastic host!! Thanks for everything! Highly recommend!!

What a wonderful stay at a beautiful property - it is indeed a “Retreat”! Steve is an outstanding host, very friendly and responsive, and a wonderful guy as well. The house and yard are impeccable. Everything was up-to-date, and the space was so welcoming. We’re already psyched for our next visit!

Perfection in every sense of the word. I left my pillow that I had brought with me and he had offered to send it to me, which was not necessary, but very appreciated. Steve was always easily accessible.

The property was accurately presented in the description. It is spacious, comfortable, and very clean. The hot tub is in good condition. It has a yard and secure parking. It is in a nice, quiet, neighborhood. There is an excellent, dog-friendly, Italian restaurant nearby (Patrizi's), so you don't have to leave the area for dinner. I will strongly consider booking here for future trips to Austin.

We really enjoyed our time at the Retreat! Steve was very responsive and thoughtfully left welcome snacks for us upon arrival. The hot tub was a big hit with our kids, and we spent time every day sitting in the yard enjoying the breeze and nature. The house was clean and well kept, and the neighborhood is in a great quiet location.

The location is good for Bee Cave and Austin with lots of places to eat and shop. The owner left some breakfast options for us, which was nice. There were only 4-5 forks so we had to wash them after every meal. The hot tub water was a little smelly so we only got in it once. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

Everything was great. The house was very nice. All of the beds were comfortable. It was clean and had everything we needed. The yard is big and nice and the neighborhood was quiet. Steve responded to all of my questions very quickly too. Highly recommend!

Very well maintained house and grounds

The Yard was great for my dog to roam around and we enjoyed the peaceful scenery. My friends said hot water upstairs was out, but otherwise very pleasant stay.

Spent the weekend in Austin with family at this wonderful home. The home was clean, in great shape, and everything was as described in the listing. The neighborhood where the home is located is quiet and provides a great place to explore Austin from. The Host was very communicative and accommodating during our stay. Additionally, he provided us with some breakfast food and water which was greatly appreciated. This is a great place to stay and when we’re back in Austin we will definitely stay here again.

Very well manicured. 3 grandsons loved the hot tub, hammocks and abundant room to run around the property.

We absolutely loved The Retreat! When we arrived we were greeted with birthday decorations and cupcakes from the host. The host is a really great guy, very personable, accommodating, and approachable. We felt very safe here and it was very homey. Added bonus with all the music themed decorations as we are a musical family. Also loved how welcoming he was to our dogs who don’t get out much. Can’t find a lot of true dog friendly places so that was great! Wish we got to stay longer and would absolutely stay again when in Austin!

Everything was just as described! Very peaceful and quiet neighborhood. Love seeing the deer all around. Great stay!

The house was very clean and well cared for. The hot tub in the yard was welcomed after running the Austin marathon. We met the owner briefly, he was very nice. He left breakfast food and water which was very kind. The property is gated in at night. It’s about a 20 minute drive from downtown. There’s a cool coffeehouse in the neighborhood.

The relatives we came to visit were only a block away so this was the perfection location for us. We enjoyed the hot tub! The house had 3 bedrooms, 2 up, 1 down, is located in a very nice residential area, has a beautiful fenced yard, sweet sounding chimes in the tree. Everything was lovely. No complaints at all, although one observation is I haven't slept in a double bed in years. New pillows and a new mattress for the bedrooms would make this perfect! Thanks for a very nice stay in the perfection location for us.

Amazing place to stay in Austin. Very comfortable house with everything you could need. Beautifully landscaped and clean. Hot tub was a bonus. Great places to eat nearby. Very peaceful.
