Wild Basin - 10 Min DT - Heated Pool/Spa -Included/Sport Court/Pickleball/ Views

Wild Basin - Heated Pool/10 Minutes to downtown Austin/Pickleball/Sport Court+/Views/18 Max Guest

**The pool/spa can be heated to 104 degrees and is designed to serve as a cocktail pool or large spa with jets and it can comfortably accommodate large or small groups during your stay. The water temperature can be set to your preference before your arrival and it can be altered during your stay to serve people who wish to have a warm pool or a hot spa. During the warmer months in Austin, the pool/spa can also be cooled to whatever temperature helps you best relax and beat the heat.


Less than 10 minutes to downtown Austin, this architecturally inspiring, custom built home in Westlake Hills is the perfect blend of proximity to the city paired with a level of privacy that gives you the sense of being miles and miles away from it all. The home is situated on a hillside near the 227 acre Wild Basin Wilderness Preserve and has soaring ceilings with over 70 windows and sky lights that overlook the hills in the distance and provide an abundance of natural light. The property sits on a secluded lot amidst a canopy of trees offering spectacular valley views from the various decks, cat walks, bridges, balcony and the pool area. There is a natural creek that runs beneath the outdoor decks which provides soothing sounds from every corner of the property.

This 3-story home’s layout includes spacious rooms for the ultimate live/work flexibility. There are three master bedrooms with bathrooms attached and several outdoor living spaces to give you plenty of room to hang with family/friends, while also providing the separation for those times that you prefer your privacy. Three of the bedrooms come with desks for those travelers who like having the option to work virtually wherever they are staying. Gather in the large, gourmet chef’s kitchen with all of the modern amenities you would expect and share meals at the custom live-edge dining table which is big enough to serve larger groups. The spacious living room has ample amounts of seating and is equipped to host movie nights with surround sound speakers and all the streaming platforms readily available.

The cozy, contemporary interior is complimented by outdoor living at every level. Choose from a variety of outside options to enjoy the property including the heated pool/spa; 2 oversized decks with outdoor dining areas; 2 outdoor grills (one traditional and one Argentinian smoker/grill for those guests who love to cook above an open fire), a pool cabana with comfortable lounge furniture; a covered balcony on the 3rd level with breathtaking valley views; a quiet shaded garden near the lily pond waterfall; or a game of pickleball or basketball under the lights on the upper terrace. There is also a wet bar on the third floor that services the third level outdoor amenities. The entire property has speakers installed inside and out so that you can hear the same music playing from the shuffleboard room inside the house on the first level all the way up to the pickleball/basketball court outside on the third level; this house was truly designed to entertain guests at the highest caliber. Nothing compares to the sights and sounds on this uniquely Zen property.

Amazing Property!
The property is absolutely amazing and the pictures do not do it justice! We fully utilized the outdoor area from the pool to the basketball/pickleball court. The inside of the house was beautifully decorated. The property manager, Jake Warren, was the BEST! He was very responsive and provided the best local coffee!

FANTASTIC House
Had my bachelor party in Austin and stayed here with about 15 other friends. It was absolutely killer, better than I expected. The house was great, all the amenities needed were there, and the layout/design was perfect. There are two lounge chairs out on a walkway by themselves that are perfectly positioned to look at the sunset over the ridge when it's getting dark, such a smart design. Jake was great and super helpful, 10/10 would recommend.

Lots of fun
The house is great with a lot of fun stuff to do. We played a lot of pickle ball and shuffle board and enjoyed the pool immensely. The rooms and nice and beds are comfortable. Appreciated the bathroom supplies. Not too far into Austin and enjoyed being up in the trees. The only difficulty we had was with communication for check in. No information to check in was provided until 30 minutes before on the day of check in. I hadn’t been able to reach the manager by phone or email all day leaving us unsure if we even could get in. Eventually we got it worked out and communication was great from that point on.

This house is better than the picture! I hosted my bachelor party here, and we had the best time. The house is in a great location easy to get to downtown Austin, with a gorgeous pool and an awesome basketball court. It comfortably fit my 11 friends and Jake was super responsive and easy to work with! Highly recommend this house for any of your future events! If you plan on doing a bachelor party in Austin look no further than here!

Fantastic Stay, Amazing Home
Wild Basin is incredible. The home is beautiful and well-appointed. I don't think the pictures in the listing capture how unique the property is; it's really wonderful, especially for a large group and those that like to cook. The property manager, Jake, was very responsive and helpful. We are looking forward to booking the home again for a future trip.

No one wanted to leave the property because it had everything! Both the indoor and outdoor space were great for a group our size and the location in the hills was peaceful and beautiful.

Amazing home, location and spacious!
This house was everything we could've wanted and more for a group of 14 girls. It perfectly fit all of us, with lots of space to sleep and plenty of bathrooms. The house is even more stunning in person and the property is huge. The home was very clean and came with several great amenities. The location is also perfect, you feel secluded but a short car ride away to all the hot spots. Our host Jake was also great at communicating. I would stay here again!

Very Impressive Property
We had high expectations for our stay after corresponding with Jake, who was extremely responsive and accommodating throughout the process, and we were not disappointed in any respect. The property’s hillside location creates many separate outdoor venues and gathering areas, providing a variety of options for activities and peaceful relaxation. The treed landscape complements unobstructed vistas in a way that captures a true Austin experience. The setting is pleasantly remote but the relatively close-in location allows easy access to the commercial attractions of Austin. The house has all the modern features and was in immaculate condition. The kitchen is especially well-equipped and stocked - we prepared several large meals and found everything needed for stove-top and oven cooking. The plentiful flatware, dinnerware, and stemware were well-suited to this exclusive property and would definitely support high-end events and hosted gatherings. We did not use the pool, so cannot comment on it other than to say that the ability to control the color scheme of the underwater lighting was a nice touch in creating the evening atmosphere on the patio. Just an FYI - the architecture of the house follows the steep hillside location, so enjoying all the indoor and outdoor features of the property means using steps and stairs frequently. Overall, The Ledge at Wild Basin checked all the boxes for us. We were sorry to see our scheduled time there come to an end and will definitely look for another time for a return visit.

My partner and I through a company Christmas party here
The house was perfect for our Christmas party. We had a chef in the kitchen and a dj on the pool deck. It was really cool seeing how everyone was naturally spread out. The outdoor patio is great and the pool is heated. The sports court was a hot item and it’s well lit for late night gaming. This place has such a good vibe and is comfortable inside and out. Highly recommended
