Our vacation experience at this property was not only great, but the hist had excellent communication! They quickly responded to any questions we had and checked in with us to ensure we were enjoying ourselves. The home was also very clean, and set up well for groups. I definitely plan on recommending this rental to anyone traveling to Austin!

Overall we had a great stay at this property. The house was very nice and check in and check out process was easy. A couple items to note that wouldn’t deter me from staying again but were frustrating that we made just aware of were the listing said 2 of the 4 bedrooms had queen beds but they were actually full size which makes a difference when you’re sharing with someone. Also there was a pool which was the main reason for booking but it was covered and we didn’t know it was functional until we reached out and got instructions and then on Saturday, the day we planned to use it the maintenance company showed up with no notice around 11 am and spent over an hour cleaning the filters. Also it would be nice if the listing noted the pool is not heated. But again overall we had a great stay and I would stay here again.

The property and property location were excellent. it allowed easy access to all parts of the city and beyond. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful, but only minutes from downtown. Overall, I would certainly recommend this property to others. These next comments are not a criticism, I mention them to make the owner aware: the fire alarm in the master bedroom and immediately outside the door started chirping on a Saturday night. Although we found a package of batteries, it was empty. I went and bought some. It was not a pleasant night. The first two nights were unusually cold, yet we could find no spare blankets. The kitchen faucet has virtually no water pressure. The master bath sinks drain very slowly.

My friend and I came into town for a bat mitzvah and could not have been more impressed with this home. And it felt like a home. The pool was clutch and so refreshing. The spaciousness of the bedrooms, the quality of linens and towels; everything was top notch. When I had questions, the owners responded immediately and problem solved with urgency. They were amazing. I have already passed this location to friends!!!
