A Better Experience

Why Book Direct?

Better Rates
Skip Airbnb's guest service fee — which adds 14% or more on top of your total. On a $1,500 stay, that's over $200 back in your pocket by booking direct.
No Booking Fees
When you book direct, every dollar goes toward your stay — not to Airbnb or VRBO. No platform service fees added at checkout. Ever.
Better Accomodations
Past guests get exclusive perks only available here: early check-in when available, extended checkout discounts, and our best rates — never listed on Airbnb or VRBO.

Who We Are

Your Hosts

Hi! We’re Kyle and Desiree — your hosts at Big Fun Stays TX. We’re proud parents of two young kids and passionate travelers who love creating memories with family and friends. Some of our best moments have come from adventures together, and we’ve hand-selected, designed, and cared for each of our properties to help you and your loved ones make those same lasting memories.

 

We’re local to Austin (where we live just minutes from our two city homes) and we spend lots of time vacationing at Canyon Lake. Because we don’t love the impersonal feel of big hotels or corporately managed rentals, our mission is to provide a personal, welcoming experience. We’re always available to our guests — as much or as little as you’d like — so you can enjoy your stay your way.

 

As a young family, we’ve designed our properties with both families and groups of friends in mind. Over the years, we’ve hosted hundreds of guests, and we’re constantly upgrading and improving our homes so each stay is even better than the last.

Why our guests

LOVE STAYING HERE

Kyle was incredibly helpful from the start. I was looking for something very specific, already being familiar with the area. Kyle was accommodating and flexible. The house was exactly as described- even better in person! It was exactly what we were looking for. Once checked in, we didn’t need to reach out at all as all of the instructions were crystal clear. 100% recommend. Hope to stay here again soon.

This place is perfect for a group looking to have their own private area while also being so close to the action. Host was extremely responsive and the house was exactly as advertised. We will be booking again when we return to Austin.

Beautiful comfortable home for a big family. Plenty of games both outside and inside for the children. Beds are comfortable. Everything you need to cook is in the kitchen. Kyle is very fast at responding if you need anything. Would highly recommend and would stay here again. Thank you for being a great host!
