Family-friendly vacation rentals in Barton Springs

BEAUTIFUL location and home!!! Extremely picturesque, feels secluded and private, the bathroom is gorgeous, all the amenities are perfect and George and Kim were amazing hosts, went above and beyond to make sure we were extremely comfortable and had a great vacation.

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!

what a wonderful stay! it is so peaceful here. Jaya's place is very comfortable, I felt right at home. The bed is very comfortable and so many amenities to keep us busy. we love watching the friendly deer! 🦌

Travis was an exceptional host. He was quick to communicate if anything was needed and offered multiple amenities. The space itself is very private, great for photos especially around the lake, it's just you and nature. If the weather wasn't so cold we definitely would've hit the water. Hadn't ever heard of spicewood before, but would come again! Thank you again Travis!

The Villa and the facility were very nice and comfortable. The choice of nearby restaurants and markets is sparse to say the least. The onsite Island Grill is only open from Thursday afternoon -Sunday afternoon. Also, if you're hoping for a nearby upscale eatery, don't bother, it's not there. That said, we had a lovely time. Boat rentals are close. Drive slowly near the facility surroundings. Deer are everywhere in the afternoons and evening.

Amazing stay!! Clean, awesome house! Quick to communicate and help with anything needed! Would definitely stay again.

So amazing and perfect for our couples getaway. This place was beautiful and worth the experience. We were super surprised at the privacy we had. Yes there are other families there in the other houses but it felt as if we were alone with the whole place. We are so grateful and will genuinely miss the place. Trisha is so attentive and helpful. GREAT host overall. Definitely try this place out.

Beautiful home, centrally located, and very quiet. It was very spacious and comfortable, would definitely stay again

Amazing cozy place! Enjoyed every minute of my stay! Host was super friendly:) Would most definitely like to go back soon!

Very peaceful place for a weekend getaway. Hosts were friendly and communicative! Highly recommend making this your place to stay in Austin.

We enjoyed this charming and comfy cottage located in the heart of south Austin. Well equipped for cooking, relaxing, and walking around. There is a pocket park across the street that was a perfect place to explore with our lil dog. So easy to get to Austin favorites like Zilker Park and Barton Springs. We’d gladly stay here again!

This little place was so perfect for our needs. It was incredibly close to all the activities we wanted to do. Very close to downtown and yet in a really cute and clean and nice neighborhood. The place itself is darling. It possibly at one time was an older apartment but all redone and upgraded, It has a darling area to sit at in the lower entry part, or you can sit up on the balcony, lovely trees everywhere. The bed is tucked in a little cubbyhole, luckily we’re still young enough to climb in there. You just have to maybe put your phone under your pillow if you need it by you for an alarm or something, since there are not room for tables, but we made it all work! We don’t sweat the small things, the location was worth everything. Oh, and not to mention the covered parking! The host went above and beyond helping in any areas we needed! Would definitely stay again.

I enjoyed my stay in Lucy’s place; it was well-stocked with necessary items to use during the stay. She was very responsive and proactive in figuring out a solution anything that needed attention. She was kind too. The neighborhood felt safe and there are a few cafes/restaurants in walk distance. Thanks Lucy!

We had a great stay and will definitely book again on our next trip to Austin! The home was so peaceful with outstanding hill country views while still close to all the fun things Austin has to offer.

My boyfriend, pup and I spent the long memorial weekend in Austin visiting friends. We loved Gigi’s place! From the cute and eclectic vibe to the large front porch and fenced yard and perfect location, it could not have been better. Gigi (and Cosmo) came over to greet us when we arrived. Gigi was warm and welcoming and very dog friendly. Check in/out was a breeze. We appreciate her hospitality and we will definitely stay here again.

What an excellent airbnb! We loved our stay and wish it was longer. Felt right at home, safe, comfortable, and the access to designated parking and great amenities was awesome. Super worth it!

we felt like it was an absolute honor to stay in this artistic tribute to all things wonderful - whether a picture of a giraffe peering in the window to see what you are cooking, or a small plastic pig figurine looking down from above the shower. What an experience and we suspect each item displayed has a rich story that could go along with it. The artful displays provide a rich coziness to the experience in this large home. The owner keeps the place spotless and supplied with anything you might need. She is a super communicator and readily available to assist in any way. This is a place you do not want to miss - it is as unique as they come and very comfortable!

We had a lovely stay at the property. Easy to get to and pleasant setup in the villas. We enjoyed the pool and a little hike as well nearby. Came with our baby and it was a great family friendly setup.

Steven was super helpful and provided the best air bnb I’ve ever stayed at ! I stayed for the weekend with my girlfriend and another couple and the house he provided had everything we needed and more. I would recommend staying at Stevens and personally would stay again if given the opportunity

Beautiful place, peaceful property. Comfortable one bedroom unit with everything you need for a stay!

Hacienda was more than perfect for the bachelorette! The space was great for 7 of us girlies and very clean. Hosts were available if we ever needed anything, clear instructions on entering the bnb and even allowed us in a little early. Highly recommend this bnb for anyone visiting for a bachelorette or birthday! Easy drive to downtown or local restaurants as there’s everything you need nearby. Thank you for a great place!

Kim and her husband Tex are great hosts. They addressed our concerns quickly. Their place is nice. Our family enjoyed the pool. We recommend Kim’s listing!

Lovely home, very quiet, very pretty sight lines, comfy beds, well stocked kitchen, whole house is very livable, porches wonderfully quiet with sound of the creek below, we stayed for three weeks and everything we needed was there. Excellent climate control. Easy to andjust Easy parking in driveway and on street for visitors. Cul-de-sac so no thru traffic. Extremely convenient to city, shopping, park and water. Easy short walk to park and water and trails, oh the trails are wonderful. Thank you Scott and Sally!

I can't recommend this rental highly enough. Robert was an incredibly gracious host that took great care of us when we stayed at his property. The home has wonderful natural lighting, great amenities, and is located in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood. Thanks for having us, Robert!
