Another fabulous stay at Rockin Y!
This was a return trip to Rockin Y for our family members from four different states. This time we had an infant and a 2 year old along with 11 adults. As anticipated, the house and party barn were super clean and well-stocked with everything we needed. The Host was attentive and responsive. We had no issues whatsoever, just a lot of fun, especially in the pool this time around. House has plenty of extra seating and dining space for additional visitors, which we appreciated when 5 more guests came to dinner! We had no trouble showing family movies on the big TV. The location is very convenient for the airport, grocery pick-ups and trips into town. We had another fantastic reunion getaway!!

Great space for family reunion
This property was outstanding for our eclipse-watching family reunion. There was plenty of space both inside and out for our group of 18. We did puzzles in one of the two living rooms, swam in the pool, watched the eclipse at poolside, had a talent show in the party barn, and identified birds in the wild spaces. When we could tear ourselves away, we had a great time enjoying bbq and live music in Austin and swimming at Barton Springs Pool. Natalia was responsive and helpful.

Amazing property + host close to downtown
The Rockin' Y Ranch was just as incredible as the listing images make it out to be. The home has more than enough space for everyone, all the utensils/plates/appliances that you could need, plus amenities that make your stay that much more enjoyable. The pool was great for cooling off and relaxing, the barn was great for hosting all your guests in one large area and the pickle ball court was an added bonus. Overall, the property was awesome and Natalie, our host, was very responsive and helpful whenever we reached out. Would absolutely recommend to anyone heading to Austin.

Nice place and well stocked.
We really enjoyed our stay at the Rockin' Y Ranch. The house was spacious and clean. It was really well stocked with supplies, spices, condiments, etc. The pool was very nice, clean, and an enjoyable place to hang out. It really came in handy with the plus 100 degree heat we had the week we were there. The barn was great to hang out in in the evening, but wasn't air conditioned so really couldn't enjoy it during the heat of the day. Some ceiling fans or larger pedestals fans could help that, though. We had plenty of places to sleep for our group of 20+, but would have been convenient to have an extra bathroom, especially upstairs. We would definitely recommend this place, and are hoping to stay here again. Just not when it's over 100 outside. Everyone enjoyed themselves, and it was a great place to hang out with family and friends. Thanks for the hospitality.
