Guest access
Keyless check-in/check-out makes it super easy!
Other things to note
- IMPORTANT: Please read and agree to all of the following house rules, violation of any will result in me keeping your security deposit:

- DO NOT USE THE BACK PORCH AFTER MIDNIGHT. My neighbors bedroom is just across and noise travels easily.

-First and foremost, feel free to use everything in the house but please respect it, and the neighborhood, as if it were your own. This is a quiet, friendly, community not 6th street so NO LOUD PARTIES are allowed. Cops are very quick to respond to noise complaints in this city, and I will keep your security deposit should this happen.

- Please note the check-in and check-out times. I can typically accommodate requests for early check-ins / late check-outs, but I can only confirm such requests 24 hours before the date requested. The reason is my friends and I potentially may be coming back into town, or have other guests arriving or leaving the same day, and cleaners typically need around 4 hours. If you are 30 minutes late I will keep half your security deposit, an hour or more and I will keep the full amount.

-No excessive drinking or illicit activity as that can obviously lead to the above concern.

- Absolutely NO smoking inside. Please deposit any cigarette butts in the front or back porch ashtray.

- NO pets as I am allergic to cats and future guests could be to other pets.

- I will provide you with the keycode before check in. Please make sure the side door is manually locked from inside, and the front is ALWAYS locked with the key code when your full party is gone.

- Kindly refrain from flushing anything but toilet paper.

-Please clean up after yourself in the kitchen and all other areas, basic cleaning supplies are provided.

- Please take trash and recycling out when you leave, and do not let it accumulate. Especially do not leave trash out by the bins as they tend to attract raccoon bandits. Trash days are every Friday and recycling every second and fourth Friday of the month.

-Anything broken or damaged will come out of your security deposit. By all means, use all furniture and appliances but with care.

- Please make sure to be careful around all of the original artwork as these items are fragile and can be broken or damaged easily.

- God willing you will not need these things, but there is a basic first aid kit provided under the sink, and a fire extinguisher in there and in the en-suite closet. Two hospitals (St. Davids and Breckenridge) are within a mile, but obviously contact 9-1-1 and me should anything serious happen.

- I have three OUTDOOR security cameras, one by the front door, one in the carport, and one by the back patio. These came with the house and are for your protection. There are none indoors.

- I also have a NoiseAware sound sensor. It only notifies me when noise crosses a certain barrier it DOES NOT record anything said, it only measure decibels.

Good for our needs

Our boys were in the UT Baseball camp and we wanted a house close to the stadium/camp. This house is within walking distance so we booked it for the weeklong camp. Adam is a great host and was responsive when I reached out prior to the trip to ask a question. The house is very cute and East Austin is definitely transitioning. We walked to camp drop off and pickup, to a Pilates studio, coffee shop, and lunch. Neighbors were nice and quiet, but lots of random cars parked on the street all day and night, which made our parking situation a little tricky. I would say inside the house there are a few things that jumped out at me. There is no cable, and in the instructions it says ‘who needs cable when you’re in Austin?!” I guess I do? My husband and I WFH during the days when the boys were at camps and I like to have the news on (Today Show, local, etc) when I WFH. It is also the Olympics and we weren’t able to watch any! The TV was very confusing to work and the remotes didn’t work well which made it more difficult to navigate. My 8 yo summed it up best, he said “this is a cool house but there’s some weird stuff inside’. The walls need a paint refresh, the linens and towels are all mismatched, it’s a total hodgepodge and my husband was annoyed there were no washcloths. The kitchen gear is a hodgepodge too, it never felt like I had the right tool for the job. Lastly there is a severe mold issue on the ceiling of the jack n kill bathroom and the host has been informed

Perfect for our girls trip!

We stayed for a few nights for a girls trip when my friends came to Austin to visit. The location for this place is absolutely perfect! So close to everything. Honestly, the house is better in person than in the photos! It was SO SO SPACIOUS! There were books and games available as well. Plenty of the typical supplies you need like paper towels and toilet paper and extra towels and blankets for a comfortable stay. The house gets fantastic light and it's a pleasure to be in it. It's a newer build than the rest of the neighborhood which adds to the comfort. Adam was quick to reply to my questions, but I didn't have many honestly - we didn't really need anything as the place was well set up and stocked for us! If I have a group coming to Austin again I would book this place again if available - it was great!

Cute place, easy to get to other places in Austin

I stayed here for a bachelorette party and it worked well for us. The space was cute and the big room on the main floor was nice to all hang out together. The listing says 4 bedrooms - there are only 3 which is described in more detail in the caption but would be nice to know more clearly that one of the bedrooms is the pull-out couch. We did have an issue with the cleanliness of the oven. We turned it on and the bottom actually caught fire due to something left on the bottom, and had to use the fire extinguisher to put it out. Adam responded to our email that night and sent someone out the next morning to clean it up, which I appreciated. There were a couple breakfast/coffee places within walking distance. Overall, I felt like this worked well for our stay in Austin and met our needs.

Great House

We were in Austin for the state track meet. Adam was very helpful when I asked questions about location, etc. The house was within walking distance to the stadium. That was a great attribute since we didn’t have to fight traffic or pay for parking. The house is also within a couple of miles to great restaurants. We ate at The Salty Sow(dinner) and Juan in a Million(twice for breakfast) and both were wonderful. We had 10 people staying at the house and had plenty of room. The house met all of our expectations. It was beautiful. Beds were comfortable, and everything worked as it should. We enjoyed the outside patio and my son LOVED the stairs. I can’t say enough about how helpful and kind Adam was before and during our stay. He answered questions quickly and was happy to help. We hope to return in the near future.

The space met the needs of our business group's offsite meeting, while also proving accommodations for one of our out of town guests.

Wonderful house!

We loved our stay at this home in east Austin over thanksgiving! There were 9 of us and there were enough comfortable bedrooms and bathrooms for us. Super modern decor/structure, and nice tv, games, and books. Loved the espresso machine! Only couple things are that the fold out mattress in zipped case would not inflate well, and kitchen could have had more large ladles. But wonderful overall.. definitely recommend for families, and kid friendly!

We had a great stay here. It is a very cool and modern home. We stayed with 6 adults and a 1 year old child. We put the crib in the huge master closet and it was perfect. The Kitchen is very nice as well and there is cable TV and netflix to watch when relaxing in the home. Owner is very easy to communicate with as well. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a place to stay in Austin.

Great place to stay.

Just wanted to thank Adam for a great weekend. The house was everything we expected and more. My friends were impressed with the design and decor of the house including all the art. The open concept main floor was a great space for all of us to relax and enjoy each other's company. Bedrooms and beds were comfortable and clean. The house was close to downtown and the highway so getting around was easy and convenient. I would defiantly recommend Adam's house to anyone visiting Austin. Adam is easy to communicate with and responds timely. Being fairly new to using VRBO and such services I was a little nervous but dealing with Adam put me at ease. We truly had a great birthday weekend.
