About this house rental
The cozy outdoor TV/Living area is the perfect place for game night or watching a movie while grilling at the outdoor kitchen. It is located just off the kitchen which makes entertaining your guests that much easier. And the front porch with swing and chairs is the best place to gather, relax and people watch anytime of the day
The main bedroom, including an en-suite bathroom, and 3 guest bedrooms are all located upstairs. Each room is adorned in beautiful natural light with windows throughout. The 5th/optional bedroom is a private multi purpose downstairs suite which includes: a day bed, full bathroom, and a separate private home entrance. An outside casita, serving as a 6th bedroom, is attached to the garage and provides additional privacy with a queen bed and separate living area.
If you aren’t in the mood for cooking, this house is also a very casual 5 minute walk to the lake where you can enjoy acclaimed waterfront eateries such as Hula Hut, Mozart’s and Quince. Or a 5 minute UBER gets you into downtown Austin with a plethora of great restaurants and bars.

Mark was an excellent host. Beautiful home in a great location. Thank you
8.0 / 10.0
Great location. Owner extremely responsive and addresses issues quickly. Unfortunately, record high temperatures in Austin the week we were there caused some issues that were out of property owner's control and limited our ability to enjoy outdoor elements of property. Overall the property is great, just a little tired in spots that can be addressed to make it even better.

My 5 business partners and I visited for a long weekend to enjoy Austin and also have our mid-year meetings. Each of us had our own room with nice accommodations. Check in process was easy and welcome basket was a nice touch. The house was exactly what we were expecting from the photos and description and I’d recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet spot in a nice neighborhood close to all Austin has to offer.

Really special house in one of Austin's best residential areas just west of downtown and several blocks from Lake Austin. Two large covered outdoor gathering areas. Very responsive host. We will stay again!

My wife and I along with my three other adult children and their partners came to Austin to celebrate my oldest daughter's wedding. The home was perfect. And the owners were kind enough to allow us to host a small dinner party for our new in-laws and some out of town guests. Everyone was impressed with "my" house. Thank you adding to a perfect weekend in Austin.

The owners are wonderful, easy and accommodating. The house is great. Plenty of beds, all comfortable and clean. Great backyard to watch tv and hang. The tech was easy to deal with and the tv’s were sharp and newer models. Had a phenomenal time with our group and we spent a LOT of time at the house. Ubers were easy to grab and it was 10-15 minutes from everything needed. Great place !

We were surprised with a welcome letter and treats! The property is spacious, beautifully decorated. The property is well reflected in their listing. Austin isn't particularly big so it's really easy to get around and if you prefer a quiet evening after you've gone out to town this is the spot for you.

We enjoyed our stay at this property with our extended family for our son's college graduation. There was plenty of space for our family to stay with us and lots of room to relax and spend time with each other in between graduation events. The home has very nice outdoor spaces that we really enjoyed as well. The home is in a beautiful neighborhood with lots of trees and shade. We very much appreciated Mark's hospitality - they agreed to allow us to check in a bit early in order to drop off items prior to the graduation ceremony and they left some wonderful snack items that we thoroughly enjoyed. Thanks so much! We would certainly rent again!

We had a fabulous experience at this home. Owner is extremely welcoming. The home and outdoor spaces are beautiful and perfect for a family group. We were in town for a wedding and this home was just what we were looking for: had room for multigenerational family members, great outdoor space for the group, close to downtown and the neighborhood is totally charming. Would absolutely stay at this home again.

Very comfortable home for a family stay. Tucked away on a quiet street in Tarrytown, but close to everything you'd want to do in Austin. Front and back patios were very popular with the whole family. Mark and Darla were great and even helped us recover a couple items we left behind.
10.0 / 10.0
This home is lovely, large, and comfortable inside, but what is really exceptional are the outdoor spaces. The front porch is large with comfortable furniture and looks out on the most beautiful tree lined street. The back outdoor space is also large with comfortable furniture, a fireplace and a grill. Mark & Darla were a delight to deal with and made us feel so welcome! Highly recommend!
