Summary: Our intended stay home had no functioning air conditioning and the inside temperature was nearly 90degrees. Fortunately VACASA did find another home for us but was not in Dripping Springs but Austin. This significantly disrupted our plans and involved a lot more driving. To add to our troubles the house in Austin there was a yellow jacket nest on the wraparound porch that we did not see until my 6 year old got stung. We left Sunday night rather than Monday morning. To be fair this was our first bad experience with VACASA and we will use them again. But we’ll be looking for at least a partial refund on our original rental property.

Summary: Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Rustic, comfortable place. Beds comfortable, charming inside. Nice big wrap around porch for gathering. Needs; outside needed attention on arrival, cob webs obviously showed it hadn’t been cleaned for a while. Screen laying on porch, dirty towel and cans in yard. Mentioned to Turnkey on arrival, took 3 days for attention, then just swept off windows. Front steps have several cracked boards, trip hazard strips were broken, another hazard, Inside: kitchen: limited utensils for a 5 bedroom, 4 drinking glasses, 6 spoons, 1 pot, no hot pads, no dish soap or paper towels, nothing to use to wash dishes. Needs measuring cups and measuring spoons, ice maker does not work. 2 coffee pots, one leaks unable to use. Bathrooms: sinks drain very slowly, no washcloths anywhere for bathrooms, one upstairs bedroom needs a bedside lamp. Front door handle came off. One of our guests temporarily fixed it, maintenance came later but had to return 2 hours later to finish repair.?? Beautiful wildlife appear daily ( deer, fox, birds). Such a great place but needs more maintenance for guests.

Summary: We rented this house and the cabin next door for the gathering of a group of college friends for a memorial service. It was a somber occasion, of course, but the location and the house and the grounds could not have been more perfect. More than anything, we loved sitting outside drinking coffee and visiting and watching the deer poke around. The owner was friendly and accommodating, and we had a lovely time, despite the sad circumstances.

Summary: beautiful property with paths to walk in nature. each bedroom has two twin or two double beds and it's own bathroom, wonderfully decorated, clean, common areas inside are small, but the wrap around porch provides plenty of chair and table space for all, lovely to sit outside, even in the heat due to the covered porch.

Summary: The Book house was overall a great place to stay for our memorial weekend getaway. Plenty of rooms and beds for everyone. Not a far drive from downtown but still secluded enough to feel at one with nature with deer on the property. Only issues we ran into were, when most of us showed up to check in, it was dark so we had to drive around the property and find the right house, since there’s no lights on the road leading up, it was a little difficult. Also there were no trash bags or bins for us to dispose our trash in to so that made it difficult to clean up at check out and but we notified the cleaning staff as we left. Reminder check out is at 10am not 11 which I overlooked, but didn’t seem to be an issue.
