About Cindy Hill

A few years ago my husband and I were looking for a business that we would enjoy when we decided to retire. We decided to convert long-term rentals to short term rentals. We now have 3 properties and manage a fourth. We are founding members of the Austin Rental Alliance (ARA), a group of responsible Austin vacation rental owners. The best part of this business is the variety of guests that we have hosted. Our goal is to offer a uniquely Austin experience in a wonderfully inviting home environment. With our retirement plans still on the horizon, we could not be happier with our choice to offer ourselves as your hosts.

Cindy Hill purchased this house in 2003
Why Cindy Hill chose Austin

This home is centrally located in a neighborhood with many local shops and restaurants. The house has contemporary furnishings, lighting, and fixtures giving it the hotel-feel. The house is very open and bright with private bedrooms.

and, the neighborhood is tucked away in an area that is very convenient for your visit. A great 'Austin' experience.

Home Away From Home

  • Submitted: Jan 26, 2013
  • Stayed: Jan 2013
I loved this house! In October, my son was married in Austin on a Sunday.I live in Kentucky and was not familiar with the area. I contacted the owner and she found us a beautician that would do all the wedding party hair, on a Sunday. She found us a church, of my request, that was close to the house, so we could attend services on Sunday. She met us at the house and welcomed us to Austin. She was wonderful!!! The house was spacious, clean and felt like home. We had everything we needed. I cannot express how highly I recommend this property and it's owner! All my family was able to stay together. I will always have fond memories of this trip!
Owner's Response: Thank you so much for the review. I enjoyed meeting you and being able to share the excitement of the wedding. It was a pleasure having you and hope to see you again.
Take care,

Great stay!

  • Submitted: Jun 13, 2012
  • Stayed: May 2012
Great family room with really nice tv and very comfortable couches. Bedrooms were comfortable. Kitchen was small, but adequate. Nice dining area. Best part was that all of the kitchen/dining/tv viewing area was open and "together." Back yard was pleasant, but "fountain" was just a bubbling place instead of a fountain. Actually was a mosquito attraction. But overall, we enjoyed it very much and would stay there again in a heartbeat!
Owner's Response: I am so glad on this return visit that you stayed with us again. I know the Austin family connection can't be beat. Be safe, take care, and come again! Cindy

Wonderful and relaxing stay

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: Apr 14, 2012
  • Stayed: Mar 2012
5 of us (all seniors) stayed for nearly 2 weeks and everyone found this house to be very comfortable. It is just as pictured with comfortable beds, a nice and large combined dining and living room and a somewhat small but quite usable kitchen with all the amenities. The location is very close to the major highways, but in a very quiet neighborhood. We would most definetly stay there again if the need arises. You will not be unhappy if you rent this house.
Owner's Response: Dennis, we are so happy that you stayed with us during yuur recent stay in Austin. When we renovated the house, the intent of our design was to create a modern, comfortable space for easy and relaxed living. I am so glad that you and the family enjoyed the house. Please come again.
