Perfect Stay

This is such a terrific property - from the street, very unassuming; however, the backyard is loaded with fun. My grandchildren ran, "played" bocci ball and jenga. The host was very communicative and responsive. I had requested the heat on the pool be up to 90 degrees, and it was on both days. Will stay here again.

Great spot for a quick Austin getaway

Fantastic South Austin location! Quiet and safe, minutes to South Congress and all downtown hot spots. Clean, cozy, charming home. My 65 year old mother was ready to just stay forever! Pool was so relaxing after walking the city all day. Would return!

Great for location and amenities!!!

Fantastic modern home, clean and well appointed, in a great Austin location! Owner has thought of everything and more you could need for a fun time at the house! Great A/C, plenty of towels, comfortable beds, and sweet Texas decor. My granddaughters especially loved the colored lights in the pool at night! Make a reservation, you won't be sorry!

Great Pocket Neighborhood

This property was excellent. Super clean, very quiet, great area close to restaurants and coffee shops. Beds were amazing; like sleeping on a cloud. A/C nice and cold. Didn't use the pool but a family would have loved the privacy of the back yard. Would definitely stay again. Host was super efficient and quick to respond. Great stay!

Perfect break place

The place was perfect for us. The ambiance was relaxing yet fun. Loads of things for the kids to do and the pool was the perfect temperature. Decor: time and thought was put into the fixtures and decoration and supplies. It has everything needed. Beds were comfy and clean. Loads of towels and it was all very well taken care of. We will be coming back for sure!

Pool was great

We did a quick staycation for the pool and enjoyed our time. They listing says to say quiet after 10pm (no music, loud talking), but around 8pm they told us to not be outside at all. Just a heads up, you're in a neighborhood with close neighbors

Great House

This is a nice oasis in what can be the craziness of a growing Austin area. As experienced VRBO(Homeaway) people we can tell you this host was one of the most accommodating and responsive we have ever had. The house was immaculate and has everything that you want in a VRBO. There is some travel involved if you are going into the city or anywhere north, but it is wasn't that bad and it is well worth it for what you get in this house.
