We spent 10 weeks at this property during the summer of 2023. While the house has some dated features, our stay was marred by a couple of significant issues with the AC system.
Regrettably, the AC issues persisted for over 10 sweltering days, subjecting us to temperatures soaring beyond 87 degrees. Amidst our discomfort, our initial attempts to resolve the situation with the owner were met with suggestions to rely on ceiling fans, which did little to alleviate the oppressive heat, or to leave the premises and explore the surrounding area. It was only after reaching out to Vrbo that we were finally granted a one-night stay at a nearby hotel and, subsequently, the AC was rectified.
Adding to our vexation, the property management left much to be desired. The house was rife with personal belongings, including clothing and even undergarments, occupying drawers and closets throughout the property. To our dismay, there was no sign of pre-arrival cleaning, and the remnants of a previous food delivery lingered in the fridge.
In summary, this property has potential but is poorly managed, resulting in a less-than-pleasant experience for our extended stay.
Its a beautiful home in an outstanding neighborhood. Had an issue with the air conditioning at check-in, and the host worked quickly to resolve the problem. Great stay!
My family and I really enjoyed our stay here and are already planning our next trip back. Very easy to communicate with and the house was perfect. Everything was clean and the beds were comfortable. We didn’t use the pool but it looks beautiful and I really enjoyed the metal rocking chair in the backyard.
This is an family home that was more like staying in a beloved aunts house than staying in a vacation rental. It was cozy and comfortable. The pool was perfection.
The location was perfect, centrally located and an easy drive to anywhere you desire. We spent lots of time in the the pool after exploring Austin throughout the day. We rented a boat from lakeway marina and spent one day on lake travis, it was so beautiful, ate a ton of great food, watched the fireworks show on the lake. Would definitely come back.
We spent a three day weekend at this house for my birthday weekend. First, the house is huge which was a pleasant surprise upon our arrival. My wife was able to whip up a nice bday dinner in the large kitchen which has plenty of pots n pans etc to cook if you needed to. We were a party of five and we found the pool to be plenty big for us to have a great time. Plus it was super convenient to have a pool out back after a long day on the River. Lake Travis and Guadalupe River were a short, easy drive from this location. Groceries, convenient stores, shopping and restaurants are all within minutes of the house. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and wouldn’t hesitate to be back.
Nice home. Could use some up graded bedding and towels for guests and maybe a little cleaner but overall we were happy with our stay.

About the host
Hosted by Jacqueline Wilson
This is my home, not an exclusive vacation rental. I lived in Germany and Paris and am an avid traveler. I have many antiques and items collected over the years from all over the world. The home is one story and is easy to navigate, but there are steps leading to the patio. There are breakables so not suitable for large crowds, rambunctious guests, large dogs or toddlers and active children.
Why they chose this property
This is a lovely place for family to gather for vacation, a get together or special occasion. There is a nearby hotel in Riverplace to accommodate additional guests.
What makes this property unique
Riverplace is a lovely community with playgrounds, parks and lake access. Both Lake Austin and Lake Travis are nearby and the famous Oasis Restaurant is a few minutes drive with a spectacular view of Lake Travis. Outlet shopping in San Marcos is an hour away. Antiquing in Wimberly or Salado is also a fun day trip. Other activities like Innerspace Caverns are an amazing cave and cool for hot summer days, and tubing in San Marcos or going to Schlitterbahn, one of the USA's largest and natural waterpark in New Braunfels is a unique treasure and can round out a fun family vacation.
