Perfect luxury

Four couples stayed for a long weekend and had a blast exploring Austin. The house is absolutely gorgeous with upgraded everything-easily, the nicest place we have ever rented. We had an architect and IT nerd with us and they couldn't stop geeking out about the features of the house! The hot tub was an amazing bonus and overlooked a small ravine.

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.
