The house was everything we expected and more! The rooms are spacious and nicely decorated. The bathrooms are clean, great towels and all the amenities. The kitchen had everything you could possibly need! And it was so nice to have an extra fridge in the laundry room.Everyone agreed it was one of the best vacation rentals we've had!
Perfect for large groups because there are so many bedrooms and baths. There were also a ton of amenities, including shampoo and soap in the bathrooms; coffee and creamer in the kitchen; and trash bags, laundry soap and lots of other items throughout the house. Everything was clearly labeled and the instructions very clear. The pool was warm and clean. I only wish there was recycling available. The only negative was the gunfire we could hear at odd times. It was a little unsettling for us city dwellers, but it is Texas.
The house is very spacious and super clean. The outdoor entertainment areas were amazing. We had ten couples on a group trip in the Austin area and this house made the trip even more special.
This property was perfect for 20 of our family members to spend a weekend together. We cooked, played in the pool & hot tub, watched football, played games and toured breweries/distilleries.
The property was beautiful and Jeanette (PM) was awesome! She immediately helped resolve a small issue that came up and was extremely helpful providing medical equipment for my elderly (88) mother. Our party was grateful for the personal note she left for us upon arrival and the service!
Our family certainly enjoyed our time at whispering Oaks estate. The space was beautiful and spacious and everything was clean and welcoming. I definitely recommend this space for any family gatherings or just a time to spend in serenity.
We had an amazing time at Whispering Oaks. The house was wonderful and had everything we needed to spend some quality time with family members who came from far and near to celebrate our son and daughter-in-law’s wedding.
Wonderful experience and stay at this beautiful property. Family reunion with children of all ages. Had a great four day Stay at this beautiful property. Driving distance to quite a few breweries as well, owner/property manager is very responsive and helpful! Thank you guys for helping us create some amazing memories!
This property is amazing. Plenty of room. Lots of fun. All the amenities were awesome from the furniture to the bathrooms. The pool and patio area were great. Our family and friends were in town for a wedding in nearby driftwood. The house was so great people didn’t want to leave.The check in and out were easy. The property manager, Jeanette, was easy to work with. I can’t say enough good things about our experience. We will return!!
The house and pool were very nice and comfortable for everyone. Liked being secluded but not that far from town. Josh and Porsha were great to work with.
Our group of 23 (longtime family & friends) had a wonderful stay in Dripping Springs. There was plenty of room for everyone, and the home was beautiful, with well-stocked kitchen. The only suggestions we would have would be to supply more TP and trash bags for a group our size … we ran out of both. But Porsha was super responsive and friendly, and we did have a wonderful time. Thank you!
Our bridal party stayed at Whispering Oaks for our wedding in Dripping Springs. This was a perfect location for everyone to relax and unwind after the wedding! Our whole party enjoyed the pool and the relaxing atmosphere. The house was clean and the kitchen stocked with everything we needed! The beds were also incredibly comfortable. 10/10 recommend!
We were in town for my son's wedding, and this was the perfect house to host our friends and family. The house and grounds are absolutely beautiful. There was enough room for everyone, and it never felt crowded at all. The outside space had abundant seating and that was where we would gather in the evenings. The kitchen had everything we needed, and with two refrigerators, we had plenty of room for food and drinks. The check-in and check-out procedures were so easy. If you are looking to host a large gathering of people, I would highly recommend this VRBO. It is truly one of the nicest houses in which I have stayed. It was very clean and comfortable.
We gathered for our family reunion from near and far! The house and property were so welcoming! There was ample space for everyone to relax and renew. We had a wonderful time reminiscing about old days and creating new memories! We hope to gather again in the “Gateway to the Texas Hill Country” and this home would be our first choice! Thank you J & D + J & P!!!
My family and my sister’s family have been getting together for 30 years. We started at the Hyatt Hill country, then the JW Marriott Hill Country and just this year decided to rent a house. We spent so much more time together having a nice pool for just us, large firepit, beautiful back patio and a large kitchen table. After a vote we have decided to continue renting this house. This house is beautiful and the owners and manager are so friendly and helpful. They were attentive to any issues that came up, which were very minor. The house is truly a gem and allowed everyone to gather together and then to retreat to private spaces.
We have been having a family vacation every year for 20+ years. As our family has grown our house needs have grown. We are all coming from different part of Texas and this was a great central location for most. This property was a great size for our family of 19, of which two are a 2 year and 7 month old. This kitchen was well stocked, and we actually never ran out of silverware. It had more small appliances, including a crock pot, blender, convection oven, dual ovens. With the guest house there were 3 full size refrigerators, so there was plenty of room for all our food, and were able to make the one in the laundry room our drink refrigerator. The pool was perfect. Only one of the 2 tvs at the pool was working, but we were able to easily watch our sports teams while enjoying the pool.
My husband and I stayed here with our wedding party members during our wedding weekend in Driftwood. This property was perfect not only to accommodate our group of 20, but also to hold our welcome reception event for our guests the night before our wedding. When we arrived, Josh was super friendly and gave us a really thorough orientation of the property and all the features around. The house and casita were clean and spacious with a lot of rooms to easily hold a lot of us and hang out, so we were never really on top of each other despite our big group size. It was also nice how secluded the property was and expansive the backyard was. Unfortunately, we didn’t get to use the pool or hot tub, but the whole backyard setup was very cool and beautifully setup.
The event space that was right next to the casita was a nice size and had the perfect bar area setup for us to have a great time on Wednesday night with the additional people we invited over for the welcome event. It was also nice that the garage doors could open to bring some cool air since there was a lot of people in one large room.
Overall, we were very happy with this rental for the 3 nights we stayed there. Definitely a great spot for large groups to hangout and enjoy the charm of the hill country landscape.
