Amazing Kitchen and Bar Area I Steps from Downtown - WalkerVR Daniel House

Welcome to Walker Luxury Vacation Rentals, where exceptional guest experiences and premium hospitality are our top priorities. Each of our homes comes with a dedicated team of knowledgeable agents that are available 24/7.

Concert or couple’s trip, food tasting tour or other Austin adventure—no matter what calls you to Daniel House, happiness awaits. Located just steps from downtown, this chic, skyline-view vacation rental gives you front row seats—and easy access—to weird and wonderful Austin.

While it makes for a great launching-off point to explore the city, Daniel House also provides everything you need to rest and recharge at home. Deluxe amenities, concierge services, and serene, designer living and sleeping spaces are just the start of what makes this place truly one-of-a-kind.

Enjoy the view. And what a view it is! In the observatory-like living area, watch the skyline twinkle through huge windows as the sun sinks. Or visit on special holidays (like New Years and Fourth of July) to watch fireworks sparkling over the city from the deck. Even the master bedroom's soaking tub features a skyline view.

Eat like an Austinite. Dine like a local by asking our knowledgable local team of reservation agents to point you to the best of the best in Austin—from breakfast tacos to BBQ to eclectic eats. Feeling creative? Find fresh ingredients at the local farmer’s market and whip up a feast in your gourmet Gaggenau kitchen...or use the Big Green Egg ceramic charcoal cooker for at-home BBQs.

Prepare to explore. Head to the skyline-view deck and get inspired with the whole city laid out in front of you. Grab a cold drink from the outdoor bar and plot your next escapades.

Wander freely. With downtown just outside your door, boredom is impossible here. Stroll to Zilker Park, Lady Bird Lake, or Barton Springs Pool for fun in the sun or on the water, or catch a show at Long Center for Performing Arts or Palmer Event Center. Taste test your way through Restaurant Row or indulge in retail therapy at South Congress shops.

Rest up in style. Every good trip is part excitement and exploration, part rest and relaxation—and Daniel House strikes the perfect balance. In the sumptuous king-size master suite, enjoy a private deck and spa-worthy en-suite bath and couple’s shower. Six more bedrooms feature king and queen beds, blond-wood floors, and generous natural light.

This is a stay you can feel good about for many reasons; another is that this is rated a five-star green home by Austin Energy, thanks to its use of natural/recycled materials and energy-efficient lighting and insulation!

Phenomenal location, gorgeous stay
This house exceeded my expectations. The house was in a great location, very walkable, with a gorgeous view of downtown. The house itself was modern, functional, and full of the little touches you love to see in a VRBO (baskets of throw blankets, board games, a well stocked kitchen). I didn’t reach out to the host during the stay, but they were very communicative prior to check in. I would highly recommend this property.

Perfect location to explore Austin
This house was had the best bedroom layout for couples going on a trip to Austin. Everyone has their separate rooms and then can gather in the huge living/kitchen area. Tons of sitting and great outdoor patio. We explored all of Austin and loved this location. Thank you!

Great Austin spot
The house is very well-maintained, has a great vibe and is in a great part of Austin. Be prepared for the management company to gather info on all adult guests (cell phone, email address, DOB, etc.) and for a cleaning crew to come every morning (around 9am) with a card that says if you don’t let them in, you’ll be charged an extra $100/day.

Weekend Girls Trip
This property was perfect for a quick weekend girls trip. Plenty of space in the living room area for lounging with guests. The living room leads to the outdoor deck which has views of downtown Austin. The master bedroom was spacious and the bathroom was huge! The house was updated with very comfortable beds, new kitchen appliances, and a large wine cooler! Highly recommend staying here for a girls trip or with a few couples!

Austin Food & Wine Festival
My group of 12 friends very much enjoyed our stay at the Daniel House in Austin. The house has a modern vibe, a great view of the city, and was well equipped for everything to enjoy our stay. Our sleeping arrangements were comfortable for 12, and we had plenty of room throughout the house. The location was absolutely perfect for experiencing the food & wine festival, with the grounds being less than 10 minutes walking distance. Would definitely stay at the Daniel house again for our next group trip.

Austin Mom's Weekend
We had a wonderful time. The house is great. Only thing I wish was different - one more restroom. And I wish they put down rugs... I'm not very sensitive to noise when I sleep but you can literally hear every single thing in the house. Location is great and modern decor is beautiful.

College Reunion Girls Trip
We loved the house! From day one, we were so comfortable and enjoyed everything it had to offer. The living room is the ideal place to have a glass of wine and catch up. Everyone had their private space in the well-appointed bedrooms. The kitchen has all the amenities needed to create anything from a basic snack to spectacular meals. We ate out most nights but did cook up some really great breakfasts before we ventured out for yoga, hiking, shopping, breweries, restaurants, and live music (and more!). The weather was so-so, and it was nice to get back to this house, which felt like a sanctuary. It doesn't hurt that it is right around the corner from Terry Black's BBQ and El Alma... Don't hesitate to book this gem. Side note - our group had 2 cars and they fit in the (very steep) driveway. It may even fit a 3rd if that is important to your group.

Perfect setting for small team offsite
We are a small corporate team of 7 people and needed a quiet place to work on upcoming team objectives. We needed a big open area, separate bedrooms, and a location central enough in the city to allow us to go out in the evenings for some fun. This house hit all of the criteria, and then some. The house itself is beautiful; the city skyline view, the decorating themes throughout the house, the gourmet kitchen and wet bar, everything was designed to impress at first glance. Everyone on our team, from the president down to the event planner, was impressed! The bedrooms are all well-decorated and comfortable. The outside space is stunning with its views of the city skyline, but not so close to the street as to create any noise. The main living space is perfect for meetings, all the chairs were comfortable and perfectly spaced so that people who wanted to work from the table could work close enough to those who were kicking it on the couches. If we are ever in need for a small team getaway again, we'll be checking availability at the Daniel House first.

Fabulous
The communal living area in this house was fabulous. The kitchen, living room and dining room are all open concept creating a perfect gathering spot. The piece de resistance though was the large glass wall in the back with spectacular views of downtown Austin. The elevated deck just beyond the glass was another wonderful spot for gathering. We had 7 family members staying there. You can sleep more, but as in all Austin rentals, there are a couple of bedrooms that are less ideal. One with no windows in the lower level that shares the primary bath and one with pocket doors off the kitchen. But both are still beautifully furnished with comfortable beds. The primary bedroom and bath are huge and dreamy. The location of the house is fantastic. The house sits on a quiet residential street with pretty houses tucked behind businesses. We walked to a wonderful coffee shop called Carpenter each morning and there is a delicious BBQ spot, Terry Blacks, right around the corner. It seemed all our events were less than a mile away. We would highly recommend this rental. If we come back, we’d stay there again.

Beautiful home. Great location.
Great space for the 11 of us to gather to celebrate our son’s graduation from UT. Key conceirge was wonderful helping us set up an in home chef for one dinner (Chef Vanessa was awesome). It was so nice to have plenty of space to relax and visit together. Loved that it was near the trail for our runners in the family. Loved that we could walk into downtown for those who wanted the bar scene. Thanks for a relaxing weekend. A couple quick suggestions from our people: Since we all needed to share bathrooms it was suggested to add mirrors in the bedrooms for people to use to get ready to minimize bathroom time. Also luggage racks or little tables in upstairs bedrooms would be awesome for easier access and getting clothing off floor. The gas grill would not fire up when Chef was there - but we used the green egg and that was wonderful. Final comment- we put some paper at the bottom steps to break up the sight line. We had people ‘’miss a step” and trip because the wood all blends together especially when coming down the steps.

Spacious, stylish and comfortable home in the heart of Austin
We all loved this house! Our group was 12 friends and family and it was perfect with lots of room to move around and in a fantastic location in walking distance to Terry Blacks and El Alma, two of Austin’s most delicious restaurants! Lady Bird Lake is also in walking distance. The house is comfortable, well appointed and stylish with a gorgeous view from the large back deck. We particularly liked the huge combined living room, dining room and open kitchen which made it easy for us all to spend time together. The kitchen is great for cooking with everything we needed. The beds are very comfortable. The airconditioner worked great during the Texas summer heat. We had a problem with the ice machine and WLVR had bags of ice brought to us the same day, which we really appreciated. It’s really the perfect place for a group in the heart of Austin. Things to note that aren’t clear on the listing: one bedroom downstairs is windowless (but nice and dark and with a big comfortable bed) and another is right off the kitchen, which is potentially loud for someone trying to sleep while others are in the kitchen or living room. There is only one street parking permit for the whole house and the unusually steep driveway only works for one car, which means if you have more than two cars, someone will have to park farther away as street requires a parking permit.

Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, listing accuracy
TERRIBLE - DON'T RENT
The structure is cracking in almost every room and has an approximate 4" grade in the great room. It appears to be unsafe to inhabit. Roach droppings in kitchen drawers. Roach ran across kitchen countertop in middle of afternoon. Oven was filthy. Hot water minimal in kitchen faucet. RO faucet in kitchen doesn't work. Jetted tub in master doesn't work. TV in great room difficult to use. So many leaves and mud on driveway we had difficulty getting the car up the steep embankment. Floors around toilets are yellow stained. Only 2 appliances: coffee maker and blender. Obvious bridal parties as male anatomical glasses are in the wet bar even though website says no bridal parties. Weak internet connection: 5.54 Mbps download and 4.70 Mbps upload. Don't stay here.
