Family-friendly holiday rentals in Hays County

Steven's place is perfect. Honestly, the pictures don't do it justice. The house is tucked away on a quiet tree-lined street, and you feel like you're in your own private sanctuary. And yet, it's only a few minutes walk to some great restaurants and coffee shops. The house itself is spacious, well-designed, and stocked with high-quality products and amenities. My friends and I are cold plunge converts after our stay here! If you're on the fence about this rental, don't be, just book it!

This place is an absolute gem. Wacky and fun, it’s a house with unique charm and character, something that is increasingly rare to find on Air BnB. The bedrooms are a little unconventionally arranged so if privacy for every single bed is your main concern, perhaps it’s not for you. Otherwise you’ll fall in love with this one-of-a-kind place like we did. There were 8 of us staying for SXSW and we really felt like we had a home base. Brian was attentive, flexible and helpful throughout our stay. The neighbourhood is ideal, and walkable. In a world of grey floored rentals and bland, heartless renovations, this spacious home is a whimsical breath of fresh air. We wouldn’t have changed a thing.

Friendly and thoughtful host, great location (walkable, safe, central). My family all enjoyed their stay, the house felt very comfortable and clean and we were well provided for.

It’s far and very private! We loved the drive to the home , Dee was very helpful and accommodating . We enjoyed our stay a lot, the pool and patio was everyone’s favorite.

great house for our group of guys. George was attentive and his house was great. very clean and exactly as described. thank you!

We had a wonderful time at Ramsay’s Cottage! The property was beautiful. We enjoyed the fire pit, hot tub, and short walk to the private park. The house was comfy and had everything we needed. It really felt like the hosts thought of everything - we had everything we could have needed. The cookies from Charles were icing on the cake to a perfect weekend! We would love to stay here again.

The stay was amazing! We spotted deer every morning we were there. The host was very accommodating and communicated quickly throughout our stay. Thank you for an amazing trip.

My friends and I had a great time in Austin, and Jessica’s place had so much to do with that. The neighborhood was great and very walkable, and a short drive away from the best of what Austin has to offer. Thanks for making our trip memorable!

We had a wonderful stay at Cameron’s home! The house was cozy and welcoming, with everything we needed for a relaxing visit. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and we slept great. The backyard was a perfect bonus—our pups absolutely loved having the space to relax. Highly recommend for anyone traveling with pets or just looking for a peaceful, comfortable place to stay!

Our stay at this Airbnb during our daughter's graduation at the University of Austin was absolutely fantastic. The home was not only comfortable but also conveniently located, allowing us to easily navigate the city and attend all the graduation events without any hassle. What truly set this Airbnb apart, however, was the exceptional hospitality of the host. She made sure we had everything we needed for a memorable stay and gave some great suggestions on places to eat. But what truly blew us away was her responsiveness to our request to look for our forgotten sunglasses. She found out sunglasses and promptly shipped them to us. It's these little gestures of thoughtfulness that truly make a difference and leave a lasting impression. Overall, our experience at this Airbnb was nothing short of amazing. Comfortable accommodations, a great location, and a host who goes above and beyond to make her guests feel at home.

A little older place but very clean and it had everything for 6 adults of different ages. The air conditioning felt great after a day in the heat. Many local restaurants to enjoy and an easy walk to. Easy uber downtown and most cost were less than $20. Larry was there with advice and fast to reach. I would stay there again next visit to Austin.

Had a great stay! Clean little house. Nothing major to complain about, the host was very responsive on the one problem I had which was very minor. Thanks

Great Hosts! You can walk everywhere you need to go, or take a short uber. We were a group of 4 and there was plenty of room in the house for all of us, with a big living room and kitchen. House stayed nice and cool which is a must for ATX.

awesome space! would love to come back again with a few friends and stay longer!

Love staying in campfire circle and Donna’s place was no exception. It was perfect for our crew, had stunning views, lots of deer, and each room was cutely decorated for Christmas. The house is FULLY stocked with anything you may need, which is much appreciated. This is how Airbnb used to be before all the good properties were snatched up by corporations. Classic, family owned home with all the charm and attention to detail.

This place is fabulous if you would like a get away retreat. We spent loads of time on the deck, enjoying the trees. This is the most well stocked Airbnb we've ever stayed in. We absolutely recommend it. The location was absolutely beautiful and driving to grab dinner was no problem at all. it's a quick drive to either Terry Black's (the beef ribs are out of this world good) or Green Mesquite. if you're looking for a place that is right in the heart of downtown, this is not it. If you're looking for a peaceful retreat, you couldn't do much better. 👍

Really cool place with great character and passion. I rented this stay for guests that were from out of town--this was a great taste of old "austin culture". Thank you so much, Carolyn.

We really enjoyed our stay! The home was clean, spacious, and perfect for our large group. It’s close to lots of attractions, which made getting around super easy. We loved the extra amenities — the cute little putt putt corner, pool, and outdoor dining area were huge highlights. The beautiful trees in the yard added such a nice, relaxing atmosphere. Would definitely stay here again!

We had an amazing time at the cabin! It was way better than what we expected and much bigger than I thought. John and Sherri were amazing hosts and we would definitely come back and recommend it!

the place is very quiet and well worth the price!

This is the absolute best sanctuary/vacation home to stay in. The best scenery, close to wildlife (had a deer let me pet it), the coolest little family vibe, and just all around amazing. I will choose this place every single time I come and visit Dripping Springs.

Doug's place was perfect for our sister trip. It was very clean and cozy and the surroundings were quiet and peaceful. It was about 10 minutes from Wimberley and all the great shopping and restaurants. I would recommend this tiny house; it was exactly as described and had many thoughtful extras.

This is our second stay here and we love it! Patrick is responsive and the welcome treats are always great! We love the renovations which made our family Easter weekend great!

Scott showed up as we checked in and introduced himself. very friendly, welcoming and overall a great host. the house had all the amenities listed and was very comfortable. the pool and play area for the kids was a big bonus for my family, we had our 3 grandkids (4-2-2) with us and those 2 features came in handy. we absolutely had a good time and the house was 10 minutes from the wedding venue we were there for this weekend. this place will be on our list to come back to when in the area.
