Always the first place I check

This rental house is by far the most well appointed I have ever stayed at. Everything you need from a fully equipped kitchen, to stocked bath/shower supplies and even a spare (new) toothbrush in case you forget yours. Love the neighborhood and close proximity to the downtown area. This is always the first place I look to rent when I go to this area.

Best Vacation Ever!

My stay at The Hollie House was nothing short of exceptional. Steve proved to be an excellent host, attentive and welcoming, making the experience truly memorable. The Hollie House itself exuded charm, with its cozy ambiance and thoughtful details that made it feel like a home away from home. It was the perfect blend of comfort and character, leaving me eager to return.

Quaint Cottage

The Hollie House provided the perfect environment for our family getaway. The house had all the comforts of home and was warm and inviting. Pictures provided accurately reflect the house's charm, and the host was prompt with communications. The location is great too, close to retail and dining.

Perfect

We stayed for a few days over Christmas to visit family in the area. The home was perfect for us and our two daughters. I am very picky and have pretty high standards when it comes to deciding where to stay and this home did not disappoint. Not only was it clean and visually appealing, but you could tell the hosts really thought about everything that would make a stay comfortable and convenient, from the water, snacks and K- cups for coffee to making sure all the instructions were easy to follow. If we are in the area again we would definitely be back.

Awesome property and experience!!!

The property is in a beautiful community, and is 2 miles from town. Pristine and clean, and the host left a few snacks and treats to enjoy. Rules we great as well, as there were few, and most focused on being respectful to the host the property and neighbors. The host was amazing, and I am blessed I had an opportunity to share a special moment at a wedding, made possible by Steve. Gary

Enjoyed our stay

Thank you so much for providing a great place to stay. Very easy to get to, very clean and homey. We had everything we needed. I felt like we were using a friend's house to stay in while playing around Dripping Springs for a few days. We would definitely come back.

Relaxing weekend

Second time to stay at Hollie House. If we are ever in the area, we make sure and check if it’s available. Nice rural feel in the neighborhood with all the modern amenities in the house. Minutes from downtown and all the “city life” of Dripping Springs.

Easy in/out, Cute, and Great Location for The Greenhouse at Driftwood

Very new and cute development with front porches that face each and not the streets. We went for a very brief trip for a Saturday wedding and other family were in another house a minute walk away. Nice gas stove which we used to make breakfast Saturday and Sunday. Check out to-do list was minimal with starting towles in the washing machine and taking out trash. It was so nice to not deal with stripping all the beds!

Beautiful Modern and Immaculate !

I don’t know if we were the first people to stay here but let’s just say it felt that way in the best way possible! This home was immaculate, clean, so well equipped- you just need your clothes and you are set! The decor is athletically pleasing, welcoming and modern. The host was easy to work with, we had no issues at all, but he was responsive when we needed property address again on our drive in. Beds are comfortable, living room spacious and great to talk or watch a good show. Hosts provided board games and thoughtful touches to welcome my family and me. Location wise it can not be beat, straight shot to the charming town area with great shopping and places to eat and less than a 7 minute drive. It was chilly when we were there and the heat worked perfectly and we were very comfortable. We have stayed at many vrbo homes since our family of 5 just fits better in them, and we all agreed this was one of the bests! Shampoo etc. provided, plenty of towels, good Wi-Fi, kitchen has everything you need and all the appliance are new and top of the line! Quiet area with other lovely homes . We can not wait to be back again this was such a great property we have nothing negative to say- book here you will NOT regret it!!
