5 Stars – Perfect Stay!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this property! From the moment we arrived, we were impressed. The setting is perfect—peaceful, scenic, and just the right amount of secluded while still being close to everything we needed. It truly felt like a home away from home.I have never seen a kitchen so well stocked with pots, pans, plates, bowls, etc. It might have been more stocked than my own kitchen. Communication with the host was smooth and friendly, and check-in was a breeze. I would highly recommend!

Relaxing weekend

It is a great place to be to relax and have family time. I enjoyed cooking on the grill, watching the deer, and taking the kids swimming; the cabin had it all: games for the kids, the kitchen fully stocked, you name it, it was thought of, Thanks for having us

Amazing place in a beautiful location!

This place was great for our family of 5! We have two teenage sons and a 3 year old and there was plenty of space and soooo much to do. The view is gorgeous and the trails nearby were so great to explore…and beautiful. The home has every amenity imaginable for cooking, which is great since we have a son with celiac disease. It’s close to several restaurants and a grocery store but feels so secluded as well. Check in and check out was the fastest and easiest of any place we’ve stayed. The beach club was so cool and we can’t wait to go back in a warmer month to explore the pools and lake more!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Hollows. The kitchen and the sunset views from the back deck were probably the most outstanding aspects of the home. We definitely would stay another month there.

We were extremely pleased with our stay! The host was quick to respond and very accommodating. The house was clean and well stocked. We were in town for a soccer tournament but enjoyed being able to hike and enjoy the beautiful scenery around the house when we were not at the field.

Perfect family get away.

Our family enjoyed our stay, it was a perfect location for our son daughter and grandkids to meet for some boating, swimming and relaxation. Although there were very strict homeowners association rules and increased restrictions due to Corona, Steve Hames was a great host and assisting in all of our questions.

Very clean, quiet & well-provisioned

The owners have maintained the house very well and it is stocked with everything you need for a nice stay. We enjoyed the mornings on the huge balcony, and in the evenings watching the stars. It’s a great getaway from the crowds, yet close enough to stores & entertainment. It felt like home, and we loved the owner’s suite with large bathroom. I had given up on short term rentals after a bad booking a few years ago in Austin, but this place restored my hope! Check those reviews! I am super picky & this house was almost perfect!

Perfect cabin for family and friends

This house was one of the best stocked houses we have ever stayed in. The kitchen was fully furnished with every pot, pan, dish, glasses and many spices for cooking. There was more than enough blankets, extra fans, pool chairs and towels,. Great walking trail right beside the house that lead to the beach club. Everyone enjoyed our stay at the cabin.

Great Getaway

My family and I were looking for a peaceful getaway, especially after Hurricane Harvey, and this was exactly what was needed. The cottage is beautiful and has every amenity that you could need. I really loved waking up in the morning and walking the trails. One of the trails is right next to the cottage - perfect for getting my daily exercise. There is also a great side yard that's fenced in to let your dog out. We had no issues and the owners were responsive and answered all of my questions. I can't wait to go back.

About the host

Hosted by Steve Hames

Host profile image
For the last 25 years I have worked in the meeting and travel industry. I've stayed and inspected hundreds of resorts and fine hotels around the world. Quality and attention to details has always been important to me. My wife and I make sure that our cottage is always in a five star condition. We believe no one will ever leave our property disappointed.

Why they chose this property

After years of traveling around the world we decided that the beautiful Texas Hill Country and Austin was the place we want to be. There is so much to do in the Austin and Hill Country area. The people are friendly and fun to be around. We enjoy ourselves so much that we purchased 5 acres in the area where we built our full-time home.

What makes this property unique

The Cottage is uniquely situated with only 1 neighbor. It's surrounded by forests, hills, creeks, and the walking, hiking & biking trail system. The Cottage is great for those that want beauty, views, privacy and quietness. We think it's the best for a relaxing vacation getaway.
