Trip to the track!

2 adult friends and myself were liking the place big time! It turned out to be exactly what I had hoped for! Also the host was excellent to work with as I needed an extra day and fortunately she was able to help arrange it. Yes one note would be the walk in shower takes longer than you would expect but does work. be patient, because I first thought there was an issue..👍

Perfect hideaway

The house is a farm style wooden home with a lotno eclectic charm and some great amenities like the spacious hot tub right on the deck. It felt like being out in the woods but really it was a block away from everything. Will stay here again.

Great spot!

Came here for a dude weekend with two friends. Great house with a nice porch to hang out on and the hot tub was great. Not walking distance to much but a very short Uber was fantastic. Comfortable and quiet, would definitely stay again! Thank you so much!

Fantastic house in perfect location

This is the second time my family has stayed in this beautiful property. We love it! Great host, spotlessly clean house, and the location is perfect - very close to downtown Austin. We enjoyed the hot tub too. Highly recommend.

Beautiful farmhouse in the middle of the city

Description of this property was exceptional. Definitely gives you country charm in the middle of the city. My kids loved the potbelly pig. It was so quiet besides the occasional ambulance we were heard. House was clean and well stocked. One small thing is the main bedroom bathroom. The window in the shower is full length and has a window treatment on it. At night you can see shapes and outlines of your body. We put a blanket on the window. Other than that had a peaceful time with the hubby while kids were at ACL. Hot tub was well maintained, private and relaxing.

Amazing Austin

Our group of 6 had an amazing time in Austin! This property was perfect for our group. Close to downtown, yet had the feeling of the quiet countryside. Our hosts were amazing and quickly answered any questions we had. We would definitely book this property again when traveling back to Austin!

Great Girls Long Weekend.

Everything was wonderful. The house was spacious enough for four adult women and filled with fun eccentric decor. Location was convenient. Everything we needed was there (soap, shampoo, paper towels, etc). The hot tub was a little hard to get in and out of and seating in it was very strange but overall, a very, very minor negative. All the positives far outweighed that. Would definitely recommend and would stay again if I ever get back to Austin.

Fab Farmhouse!

The house has loads of character and unique features, located miles from South Congress but it feels like the country. Carrie is absolutely fantastic, and each room has extremely comfortable beds. We came for a surprise birthday weekend for my little sister, and I couldn't be happier with my first experience with VRBO and Carrie. Our favorite and most used feature was the hot tub. We didn't know to open both valves to open all the jets, and it did take some time to warm up, but regardless, we lounged at all times of the day and night. Our second most used feature was the kitchen. Although the owner did have a portion of the fridge filled with her own food (you can eat it but you have to replace it), there was still plenty of room for our meal prep. The kitchen was well stocked and easy to use. The laundry in the last bedroom had our favorite smelling detergent, softener and dryer sheets, and I swear the towels were made of angel giggles, they were so soft. Our party had several animal lovers, so thr neighborhood cat (we named him Merlin), the local giant potbelly pig and a large dog that frequented the back and front doors were welcomed with lots of pets and kisses. The master shower was the coolest, pebbled floor, open concept, and great water pressure. Beware...it takes a while to get hot, but once it does...whew! Definitely would stay here again!
