Luxury and charm in central Austin

VRBO Bear stayed here - 05/14/2009 My bear family and I stayed in this central Austin home for a long weekend. We really enjoyed this tastefully decorated home with artwork and mementos from London. The house has been newly refurbished with every attention to detail - from the clever lighting to the designer touches throughout. The stylish, well-equipped kitchen allowed us to whip up breakfast in the mornings and the grill outside made dinner a pleasure as we could sit and put our paws up in the quiet neighborhood.

We were minutes away from the Central Market shopping center which made it easy to stock up our fridge and downtown Austin was only a short drive away. The house had a comprehensive guide of all the sights to see, which was very helpful. We, however, decided to enjoy the comforts of this home. The cubs enjoyed the garden and the porch out back, whilst we relaxed in the shower/steam room in the ultra-modern bathroom.

A beary comfortable stay together with the warm welcome we received from our hosts Cindy and Aram, made it a true home away from home experience.

  • We loved staying at this house! This was our first visit to Austin and our first time using VRBO. We couldn't have been happier. The Rosedale area is charming and the house itself was exceptionally clean, comfortable and beautifully decorated. Visiting Austin in June, we were welcomed with temperatures in excess of 100 degrees, but the Rosedale Retreat was a cool haven at the end of each day of sightseeing. The screened porch was even cool in the early mornings and evenings as the backyard is nicely shaded. If we make it back to Austin, we would definitely stay here again. If the house was booked, I would look for one of Cindy and Armin's other properties as they were very accomodating and professional.

  • This was a fantastic home away from home! We loved the location and neighborhood. We lived 1 block away when we were in college, and the neighborhood has certainly retained its charm. The house was so comfortable for our three generation get together. We could not have been more pleased. I would love to move in here permanently.

  • This 1st class, renovated home features a contemporary decor that is spotless, warm, luxurious and inviting. The home is very well appointed with all the trappings to fill your needs that includes modern yet comfortable furnishings, interesting art, high end electronics, a complete gourmet chef's kitchen and bath and bedrooms that utilizes quality linen. The backyard features a superb venue for family gatherings, perhaps a BBQ. A seating area and the gas grill is fully sheltered and shaded by the dense canopy of a mature Pecan tree. This Rosedale location is within minutes of downtown Austin yet provides a tranquil, relaxing setting. As a first time customer of VRBO, I consider my family and I quite fortunate to have enjoyed this Rosedale Retreat. I fully endorse it as a top shelf property offered at an incredibly reasonable expense; a remarkable value. Lastly, Cindy Hill is an absolute professional who is amicable, resourceful, and intent on having guests 100% satisfied. Book this Rosedale Retreat if you seek a superb home away from home!

  • A great house in a great central location. We were in town to visit our college age son and this place was perfect. The den, kitchen, back screened in porch and back yard were wonderful places for family time. The master suite was quiet and cozy. We could not have asked for a nicer place to stay. I will stay here each time I visit my son. I like the house so much he may see a lot of me! Cindy was great to work with. We got in very late the night we arrived and she went over and turned on the porch light and few interior lights. The whole process of using VRBO was flawless.
