We loved the house. It had everything we needed, the location was great, beds were comfortable, the neighborhood was fun to walk around and see the small houses and the ones that were scraped and big places built in their place. The location was easy to get downtown and to freeways. We loved the front deck. I would absolutely stay here again. Thanks Kerry!!

Exactly as described and it was a great stay.

We had a great time in Austin and the property is very well maintained, probably a step above others in terms of quality of cookware and stocking of the kitchen.It was everything we wanted it to be and we all had a lovely time in Austin.

Best Location and Great Host

We had such a wonderful stay in Austin. The house was clean, perfectly located and very dog and baby friendly! We will be coming here and only here for our Austin trips in the future - the host is so welcoming and caring and ensures everything is exactly as you need it - thank you!

Great location.

Bouldin is an awesome neighborhood right outside downtown. The house met my needs and was comfortable and clean. It is a no-frills small home that checks the boxes, and the hosts were very responsive.

Great place to stay in Austin

We came here to stay for the weekend for a family wedding at a venue nearby. The hosts are great and very communicative and made our stay here memorable for a variety of reasons. Great location with lots to do nearby, great neighborhood to walk around in (and very safe) and the house was great to stay in — everything you see in the pictures. Highly recommend staying here.

Excellent location, comfortable home

My stay at hill house was great! The house was clean, bed was comfortable, and the location was not only quiet but convenient to everything in Austin. This corner property is also a great spot for dog watching, as people in the area walk their dogs to the park across the s treet that has a trail.

Weekend Stay

This house worked perfectly for my family of 5. It sits in a quiet neighborhood in a great location that is close to a lot of terrific Austin attractions. It was very nice to have a couple of outdoor areas, including the park / walking trail across the street.

Great spot for the family

Carol was so helpful to bring out a high hair and pack & play for our baby. She also checked in to make sure everything was fine which was nice. The AC was nice and cool for a heat wave that melted us Pacific Northwest visitors. Thanks for a great stay!

Great location!

Cute little house in great location. Very clean and well stocked. Several outdoor spaces to enjoy the weather. Located across the street from a small park and walking trail. We stayed for ACL Music Festival and the house was easily walkable to Zilker. They kept the old charm of the house without it feeling dated. Owner was nearby and very responsive.

Fourth Time A Charm!

Once again we were able to enjoy the beautiful Hill House and be "home away" again! We came to see my daughter and had a great time visiting restaurants and various venues throughout out stay. The walking trails and lake are perfect as usual. The owners and the Hill House always get a five star rating from me and my family. I can't wait to come back! Thank you Carole and Kerry!!!!

Quiet neighborhood, thoughtful touches

We really enjoyed our weekend at this property. Great restaurants are within a short walking distance, the neighborhood is safe and quiet, and there are thoughtful touches which made our stay perfect. We enjoyed a dip in Barton Springs pool and were so glad the home owners provided beach towels. The backyard was perfect for our dogs to chase their tennis ball and also was nicely shaded by a beautiful oak tree. We will definitely try to return to this home next time we are in Austin for a weekend.

The house was very clean and well furnished. We did not cook there so cannot comment on this. There is an extended back yard which was great so we could let our dogs out in the morning and evening. The neighborhood has many dog owners so our dogs had many new smells and loved it. We visited the Warren Wildlife Gallery in the neighborhood. Quite impressive outside and inside. The little park across the street was great for quick walks with the dogs. Zilker park is near by for a swim, biking or walker. Because it was Memorial Day weekend, it was quite crowded. The only tricky part is the driveway. It is narrow and bound by a cement wall on each side. We had a small fender binder late at night in the rain! Parking is available on the street. The host was very accommodating and answered all questions quickly.

Awesome place! Awesome location!

Hill House is a great place! The home was just the right size and clean. I loved having the fenced in yard for my little dog. The neighborhood is quiet and safe. The location is perfect. I was able to walk to the food trucks on 1st and it is only a 10 minute walk to Congress, plus I felt very safe. I also walked to Zilker Park, although about 30 minutes it was pleasant and easy. There is great music at El Mercado, 2 blocks away as well as the Continental Club on South Congress. I even rode the bus to downtown. It costs $2.50 for a 24 pass and you can catch the #10 on 1st. The driveway is steep!! But if you go slow it is no problem. Carole and Kerry were awesome, quickly responded to questions and close by if you need help with anything. I hope to be back!! I totally recommend Hill House. Thanks Carole and Kerry!

Hill House was comfortable and a perfect location for a nearby family event as well as easy access to many Austin landmarks. We especially appreciated the beach towels in the closet that we made use of to visit Barton Springs. The neighborhood is lovely as well and we had fun stumbling on the Octopus house, a private residence that boasts a huge mural of an octopus on the front facade, just down the street.

This house is an absolute gem. The house is in a perfect location and the hosts were so welcoming. Can’t recommend enough and next time we’re in Austin this will be our first choice.

Perfection!

The place was perfect for our trip to Austin with our 9 month old son. Our hosts provided excellent recommendations, and so much was within walking distance. The house is was the perfect set up for a small family, and they even provided a crib and high chair for us. We’re already trying to figure out when we can come back!!
