Great place for a large, family gathering with people of various ages. House was comfortable, kitchen was functional, and having 7 BR was nice. Also pool was great--esp in July--and party barn was a fun addition. Very good for having other guests for an afternoon BBQ. Staff was helpful and friendly. Highly recommend.

Our stay at the Rockin' Y Ranch far exceeded our expectations. We rented the house for my daughter's wedding so that out of town family could stay under one roof. We were treated to more than a place to stay. The house is like a museum full of collectibles and artifacts. The landscaping is breath taking and everyone loved visiting the goats. I didn't visit the party barn, but understand the children loved it. It's too hot to be in the barn during the day because it is not air conditioned, but in the evening it was fine. There is plenty of seating around the pool, a couple of tree swings and a double hammock for outside enjoyment.

The house was clean, easy to find and nicely located. The pool was refreshing and provided an escape from the TX heat. Besides the bedrooms, there are 6 full size couches that provide extra places to sleep... and there was plenty of bedding to accomodate all.

Our group had nothing but good things to say about the ranch. We whole heartedly recommend this house to any group looking for a place to stay outside of Austin. House conveniently located 15 minutes from the Terrace Club in Dripping Springs where the wedding was held.

Thanks so much Natalie.

8 of us stayed there for a boys golf week, great place lots of space, great locations the owners where great help with local knowledge. Wil highly recomend it to anyone. Games barn was great!!

If we come to Austin again this is the place to stay.

The Rockin' Y Ranch is a great, spacious place to stay. The house is a great location - not too far from the lake and not too far from downtown. The place is exactly as advertised.

My company stayed here for SXSW Interactive and had an absolutely amazing time!!! We made a lot of great memories in the party barn. A great place for a group of friends to really enjoy the country side of Austin but still close enough to the city. The pictures don't do this house justice, this is a must stay place for a big group of family or friends.

We had a meeting of 15 family members, and the Rocking Y was tremendous! It was most convenient and comfortable, and suited our needs to the tee. We'll be back.

The Rockin Y ranch was the perfect getaway for my wife's 30th birthday party. The property was well maintained and there was tons of room to wonder about. The "Party Barn" offered a great place to hang out and enjoy company away from both neighbors and the main house in case there was anyone who wanted to go to sleep early. I would absolutely recommend this property for any type of reunion, large party, or gathering. It was very convenient to everything we wanted to do in Austin. The owner was on standby for anything and everything we needed. She was great! We will absolutely be back to the Rockin Y for future gatherings.

I’ve written many reviews before but this is by far the easiest review I have had to write. The Rockin Y Ranch was PERFECT for our needs. Context: My friend and I were responsible for planning and hosting a bachelor party for 15 guys in Austin. We’re all in our late 20s. The weekend ended with every guy saying this is the BEST place they have ever stayed at for a bachelor party. Why is it the best? A number of reasons. (1) It is a large space that is well done. There are 3 bedrooms upstairs, 4 bedrooms downstairs and somehow, the owners managed to find the best beds in the world to put in each bedroom. I frequently stay at 5* hotels (e.g., The Plaza in NY, Ritz, Fairmonts, W Hotels) and I can’t recall one of them having a bed as nice as the one I had – the room I stayed in was upstairs closest to the bathroom. (2) The Party Barn is eclectic. It is furnished with plenty of sofas, a ping pong table, pool table, darts, poker table, etc. It even has a simple AV system and we were able to hook up our iPods and keep playing great music all night. We spent an entire night just shooting the breeze at the party barn. (3) The house is nice and unique. I have rented other vacation homes before on VRBO, etc and I can’t say the same thing. The place isn’t a brand new construction but we couldn’t find a material fault with anything. The decorations are unique (read: not modern, more colorful instead) but it is well done, all cabinets are appropriately labeled, and the kitchen is FULLY stocked with any pot/pan/knife/silverware that you may need for your guests. Again, don’t expect a W Hotel or Westin décor… instead, it’s a bit more of a country flair with random art/sculptures/decorations from around the world (4). It REALLY is just 12 minutes from downtown Austin. We were able to get to 4th street / W. 6th street very quickly. (5) It is NOT in the country. Within a 2 minute drive, you have Gattis Pizza, McDonalds, a massive grocery store called HEB, etc… it is located very close to a major highway intersection (71 & 290). (6) The owners are very responsive and accommodating. Perhaps even better than most 5* hotels, the owners did a check of the house after we left and found a few items we left behind. They promptly mailed those items backed to us at NO COST. I was very impressed by the service they provided.

If it isn’t clear, I am a huge fan of this place. This is place that is great for a guys weekend, girls weekend or couples weekend.
