Perfect House, Location, Amentities

The house was absolutely amazing. We had 16 guys in their 20's & 30's for a Reunion weekend. This location offers a great opportunity to be together with little distraction and an easy ride to downtown for entertainment. The barn was by far the best part of the house providing table games, music and couches to hang out during the evening (no air conditioning so it got a bit hot during the day). All the cooking, eating & grilling utensils were provided. Overall this house is great for any occasion. I would defiantly return to this house if I were to plan another weekend in Austin.

A home-y spot

We found this home to be a thoroughly enjoyable family reunion get-away location.

The pictures and descriptions are a good representation of what is offered. Most of the rooms have one queen or double bed, so we were glad to be able to spread out with very little sharing needed. There was plenty of gathering space for our extended family of 10 (2 family rooms, with plenty of seating, 7 bedrooms) with a large kitchen table that seated 10 and another table with room for 6 where we palyed games & worked on projects. There are also spots for a little alone-time, as well. The teens loved the party barn and despite no A/C, the huge fan cooled it off quite well. Everyone loved the pool just outside the door with tables for alfresco dining. The large well-stocked kitchen and bar area was just what we needed for family food preparation & serving.

The decor is very eclectic with more nik-naks than I'm used to, but it made for a very homey feel. We weren't afraid to let the kids roam & interact on their own. It didn't feel fussy or sterile. It was very hot & humid during our stay, but each bedroom has a ceiling fan which helped keep things cool. The two refrigerators & large cooler saved on multiple trips to the store. Our rainy day inside was served by a stack of board games and we even found tools in the drawers to effect some minor auto repairs.

The location is very convenient to downtown Austin & the airport. It is really close to a major grocery store but a bit farther from San Antonio attractions than I'd hoped (1+ hours).

The Rockin' Y Ranch is the perfect location for a fun-filled weekend - especially for large groups! We celebrated with a group of 16 adults and thoroughly enjoyed the Rockin' Y Ranch! From the ample room indoors to the gorgeous property and pool to the awesome party barn, fire pits, and trails - we had a blast! The house had everything we needed in terms of supplies and there is an HEB Grocery just seconds down the road for food/additional supplies. We had so much fun we only left once to check out downtown Austin - we took cabs and it was an affordable trip. Awesome location - can't wait to visit again!

A Little Run Down

We had a wonderful time at the Rockin' Y Ranch. There is plenty of space and great activities. Unfortunately, the Rockin' Y could use a bit of a face lift. The pool has cracks in it, the pool table is torn up, the dart board was falling apart, our shower had seen its better days and the furniture looked quite used. We were a bunch of guys, so it did not bother us too much. But I could see my wife being upset by the condition of the place.
Owner's Response: We're glad you had a good time in Austin and enjoyed your visit to the Ranch. We appreciate your review. We are constantly improving the property and are currently taking care of the items you mentioned. Many of them had been scheduled prior to your arrival. Our priority is to make sure guests are comfortable, the property is clean, and the property is maintained to a high standard, and we strive for this through all of our activities at the ranch.

We held our wedding at the Rockin' Y and loved every minute of it! Natalie and Andrew were the most helpful, accommodating people and they made our stay an absolute joy. Being able to have my family stay at the house for a family reunion on top of getting married on the property was by far the best part. Between the pool, the party barn, the fire pits, and the views, this place was ideal. I can't recommend it enough!

Perfect Texas Experience

Pick this one! The Rockin Y is a true old Texas Ranch House, and has literally everything you need to make your stay comfortable. And when I say everything, I mean EVERYTHING!! It is an old family home, and there are vestiges of this, but to us it just added to the charm and personality of the home. We had numerous family dinners, and the kitchen was well equipped. Right down to foil and tupperware! Everyone enjoyed the pool, especially the children. Fresh eggs in the morning made for a great start to our day. The Party barn is where it's at though, and was hand's down everyone's favorite! The taxidermy is somehow, appropriate, and the acoustics make it easy to keep the noise contained away from the house and the neighbors! The grounds are surrounded in Texas Live Oak tree's and offer stunning views of the hill country and the sunsets really are amazing! Really a gem for a true Texas experience! We can't wait to come back!!
Owner's Response: We're so happy you enjoyed your visit to the Rockin' Y Ranch. It was a pleasure meting you all and we hope to see you back at the Ranch again soon.

HEB supermarket & Jack Allen's Kitchen restaurant(excellent SW food) are a stone's throw away. Owner super, ranch clean,comfortable,and well maintained. Stayed 4/16/12 - 4/23/12; couldn't find goat or donkey but collected fresh eggs daily from 6 chickens in coop. Ranch located next to subdivision but looks just like the website pictures and literally is 10 minutes from the " Bat Bridge" ( Congress Ave. Center of Austin) I would strongly recommend the Ranch to anyone especially with a Family as a better alternative to THE FOUR SEASON'S. The description in the ranch promo is spot on!

The Rockin' Y Ranch is the perfect location for a fun-filled weekend for family or a group of friends. A group of 16 late twenties, early thirties gathered at the Rockin' Y Ranch for a reunion and the Ranch completely made our weekend a blast. The pool and patio provided daytime entertainment, while the Party Barn allowed us to keep the fun going all night long. The house has everything you need in terms of supplies and has plenty of room for lounging in doors if the weather isn't great. We were lucky and spent our entire time enjoying the pool. Thank Rockin' Y Ranch such a fun weekend. We hope to be back soon!!

We booked the Rockin' Y for the weekend, and hosted our wedding behind the house and around the pool. With ~140 guests, we had more company than we had expected, but the rockin' y was able to accomodate all of us without any problems. The property is absolutely beautiful, and the house is decorated with a little something for everyone. We made use of the pool, the party barn, and all the rooms, as well as the wonderfully stocked kitchen. The kitchen labels really came in handy when I started making my wedding cake! With its close-in location, wide array of amenities, and eclectic decor, you really can't beat the rockin' y! Everyone told us that we had made the perfect choice for a venue, and I absolutely agree!
