Why Walker

Austin's first vacation rental management company, still family run

Sharon Walker started this in 2009 by listing our own Bouldin Creek home, the Daniel House, and answering the phone herself. Seventeen years later we manage close to 30 luxury homes across Austin and the Hill Country, chosen for groups: pools, king beds, and big rooms where a whole family ends up in the same place at the end of the night.

We are a small team you can actually reach, and we would rather turn a booking down than put the wrong group in a neighbor's street. That is why venues and planners can hand our name to a couple without a second thought.

Every guest, a real phone call

No booking is confirmed until our reservations team has spoken with the person booking. It keeps the homes, the neighbors and your reputation safe.

Staged before every arrival

A stager walks every home after the cleaners and before the guests, so the house matches the photos when 20 people pull up on a Friday.

A team that answers, 24 hours

Someone on our team picks up overnight and on weekends. Lost a door code at 11 pm the night before the wedding? That is a two minute call, not a crisis.

4.83 guest rating, VRMA member

Sixteen years of reviews from exactly the kind of groups your couples bring: families, reunions and wedding parties.

“Awesome house for host family and friends for a wedding celebration nearby. Pool was wonderful. Space was inviting. Host was very supportive when we encountered a mild hiccup with electronics and immediately addressed the issue.”

Carissa Joy T. · The Owners House · Vrbo, 10 out of 10

“Isn't She Lovely truly lives up to the name. It's an absolutely stunning home and it exceeded expectations in every way. The views were incredible, and the space was open, welcoming and perfect for a fun stay for all ages. If I'm ever back in the area, I wouldn't hesitate to book it again.”

Tina P., Praetorius wedding family · Isn't She Lovely · Vrbo, 10 out of 10

“Beautiful home to host family and friends for our wedding week, super spacious and comfortable. The outside area is where we spent most of our time. Hope to rent this property again in the future!”

How it works for wedding groups

The answers planners ask for before they ask

Who stays

Each home sleeps the number on its listing, and that is the overnight headcount. Every booking is confirmed by a real phone call with our reservations team, so the right people are in the right house.

Getting ready

The wedding party is welcome to get ready at the house the morning of, with hair, makeup and the photographer coming through. Tell us which home is the getting ready house and we will do everything the calendar allows to get you in early.

Timing

Most homes have a three night minimum, which is what wedding groups book anyway. Early check in and late checkout depend on whether another group is leaving that morning. If the calendar is open we will say yes, and either way you will know before the weekend, not on the day.

The event stays at the venue

Ceremonies, receptions and parties happen at your venue, not at the house. That is how we keep the neighbors happy and the homes available for the next couple. Quiet hours and a signed guest agreement come with every stay.

Getting everyone there
Walker Sprinter van

Our luxury Sprinter van seats 12 and comes with a driver. Rent it for airport runs, the rehearsal dinner, the wedding itself, or anything else the group needs over the weekend. Ask Genevieve for a quote when you book.

Glad to talk through a specific wedding, book a block of homes for a weekend, or set up a referral arrangement if that fits how you work with vendors.
