Great location away from Austin.

We enjoyed a relaxing stay around the F1 GP and found the route into the Circuit of the Americas pretty straightforward. Relaxing by the pool was also good and a chance to unwind after the fun experiences in Austin.

Excellent Communication with Owner

Overall stay was good! There were a few hiccups upon arrival, (there's a lot of greenery, so patio furniture & pool had to be cleaned up a bit) but they were taken care very quickly - the owners were super responsive & very accommodating, which made our stay even better.

Great place to stay

We loved the house it is very well decorated and very inviting, the pool area is great, although jacuzzi not working which was a bummer. The property is gorgeous. Plenty of space, we enjoyed it emensely. The only problem was it needed to be sprayed for cockroaches. We found a couple outside and inside the home. Still had a great stay.We would go back. Thanks for sharing your property.

Thank you Kathy, For choosing The Estate and being Wonderful guest..I'm very sorry our hot tub had an issue.(now resolved) Because of our eminse foleage and constant watering and recent flooding these roach (water bugs) occasionally come out and with 4 entrances in and out they occaitionally get in. I'm very sorry we didn't receive your 100%. We are very serious about your 100% satisfaction.

If you’re like us and love spending the day exploring the city—the restaurants, the music, the energy—but also enjoy coming back to a quiet, peaceful retreat where you can have your morning coffee surrounded by lush greenery, then keep reading.We stayed at this house near Austin, Texas, and absolutely loved it. From the moment you walk in, you get a sense of grandness and luxury. It’s clear the hosts were going for that—and they really achieved it. Yet, at the same time, it’s a home that feels lived in and loved. As you walk through, you’ll notice charming little statues and personal touches that seem to have been collected over the years, giving the house real warmth and character. For us, that combination of care, comfort, and heart made it especially inviting.The neighborhood is very quiet and relaxing, but within just a five- or six-minute drive, you’ll find everything you need—stores, Starbucks, CVS, restaurants. Downtown Austin is about a 30-minute drive away, and the highway access makes it an easy trip.We had a wonderful experience and would definitely stay again. Highly recommend this home for anyone looking for a peaceful, beautifully maintained retreat close to Austin!

Just say no to this one

I never follow up with a review on our VRBO rentals because all of them have been pleasant. This property was far from it. The property was covered with wasp nests and we were stung. There were alive and dead roaches and ants in the house. Hot water and water pressure in most bathrooms very low. Refrigerator alternated between freezing our food or being at room temperature. Front door would not lock from the outside although owner insisted it did. This property needs a lot of work as kitchen cabinet doors were hanging by one hinge, the door knob kept falling off the powder room door, and we had to tighten the toliet seat to use it.

Nice but lacked attention to detail

I had to contact the owner for the address the day before arrival. He did not give the door code so I was trying to get that info as other family members had arrived before me. He later sent a 4 page welcome package electronically. However, it was not printed anywhere at the home. He types the WiFi password and we were not able to get on line for almost 36 hours. Also, you can’t get cell phone reception there except for SOS calls. Most of our calls dropped if you could even get a signal at all. When opening the front door you are greeted with a mildew smell. They have fragrance oils and candles to try to minimize the odor. The queen bed in one of the downstairs bedroom is so hard it feels like a box spring instead of a mattress. The home feels cluttered and it seems like the owner lives there on a regular basis as the actual master bedroom is locked and blocked by. Small table. The home has potential, but was overpriced based on other properties that I have stayed at that price point. For instance, usually there are toiletries like shower gel and lotion provided in the bathrooms, but that was not the case here at the “estate”. Yes it was big, but not as expected.

Annual Girls Trip

The Hilltop Estate was a great place for our annual girls trip (we've been doing this for many years). The rooms were spacious and the kitchen was very well stocked and a pleasure to use. The house and outdoor areas had plenty of room for the 8 of us to gather. We enjoyed our week but there were some things that need to be addressed. Our group found the foyer steps dangerous. In fact, one of our group fell the first night. The steps leading to the pool had some loose bricks that made navigating hazardous. The unheated pool was lovely but the property was listed with a hot tub spa. This was not operational. The location was convenient, quiet, private and easily accessible. Overall our group enjoyed our stay.

Absolutely fabulous house, and gourmet kitchen. Beach towels were even provided. It was tranquil.

Plenty of room, everyone could go do their thing and not be underfoot. There was a glitch with the refrigerator, apparently the thermostat was going out, and we had to throw some food away that had frozen, but the owner was very gracious and came over immediately to try to adjust it. He was a champ. There were some things that surprised me, that would be helpful to list as recommendations to future guests. There was no icemachine so I had to go pick up bags of ice, no hair dryers and with teenage girls this was catastrophic. Call me old fashion, but I expect soap in the bathtubs/showers. There were pump soaps at the sinks. If this had been listed, I would have known to bring my own soap. No washcloths, but we had plenty of towels. Overall, it was a great place for a family vacation.

Lovely home

This house was so much fun for us to stay at. The kitchen is more than fully stocked. The pool was amazing, the outdoor atmosphere was amazing! Definitely watch your step, there are many stairs. I took a tumble down one set of stairs because I wasn’t paying attention. So definitely be mindful. Otherwise, this place was so much fun and so incredibly relaxing. I wish we could have stayed longer, alas, we had to return to the harsh realities of life.
