Perfect stay for college graduation

We enjoyed our stay at The House of Yes for our son’s UT graduation weekend. It was perfect for parents and grandparents to gather to celebrate. This was our second stay…first time was in 2022 for our daughter’s UT graduation. Beautiful house in a safe and convenient neighborhood, with everything we needed. Check-in and check-out was super simple and John was easy to communicate with during our stays.

Top-level VRBO experience

Our stay here was one of the best I've ever had at a rental property. The house was amazing - clean, spacious and well equipped, the location is great, and communication with the owner was clear, thoughtful, and efficient. Couldn't ask for much more. Would absolutely recommend.

Great Urban Getaway!

Such a great house - very modern and comfortable for our group of 7. Top follow game room great for kids sleeping accommodations but would not be ideal for adults. No TV in the main floor living area. Surround sound music and hot tub make for a fun and festive atmosphere.Easy walk to so many fun things too

Perfect for Weekend R&R

My friends and I had the most wonderful time staying at this property. We had a group of 9 and it fit us all comfortably. I was so impressed with the cleanliness, organization, and easiness of the process. It is an awesome location in regards to food and fun in Austin. Most things were within walking distance for us, and if not, just a short Uber ride away. We left feeling comfortable, relaxed, and had the greatest time. If i’m ever back in Austin, i’ll book this place again!

review of house of yes

This is a great property that comes as advertised and more! Great communication with the host and the house had everything we could think of needing. Plenty of room, quality furnishing and decor. The only issue was the bug/roach problem in the game room. Only saw bugs in that one area on the top floor so possibly and easy fix. Would definilty recommend once that is taken care of.

Great for group or family

We stayed NYE weekend for my sister’s wedding, and it was the perfect size for all of us! The driveway was shared, which I wished was made more clear beforehand since we had 3 cars, but the street was quiet enough to always find parking nearby or in front. The two bedrooms on the main floor was perfect for my parents and grandparents. The kitchen was filled with everything we needed, and communication was great! The only bummer during our stay was not being able to figure out how to turn the Wii on for the kids (they did get someone to reach out later but we were already at the wedding venue) and the parking. Hot tub warmed up quickly and everything was well explained in the manual. Overall was a comfortable and CLEAN stay!

I wish I could give it 6 stars

The property was better than advertised. You can tell how much care John and his team put into the big things and the littles things. We didn't cook, but if we did, there was a giant pullout drawer of impeccably labeled spices. Want to watch a movie? There's a rec room upstairs. Care for a soak? Pick up the house iPhone and the hot tub will be ready in 45 minutes. All of these features would be awesome, but to be honest John and the team made the stay feel special. I was flying in from South America, and they accommodated an early check-in so I could take a nap. It was that kind of thing. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
