You have total access to the front of the home, and the back is locked for the homeowner who typically frequents in the summer with their dog.

There is plenty of free street parking nearby for your use.

The trash bins are located on the side of the home towards the front. Trash collection happens on Tuesdays.

Sorry, but the back patio is off limits. Thank you for understanding.

We don't charge a security deposit! Where many hosts charge over $500, and where you as the guest risk them not returning your deposit – Austin Vacay remains guest-centric by charging a one-time, non-refundable fee (already included in your booking price) which provides up to $750 of coverage towards unintentional rental property damages (subject to plan terms and conditions). This means a lower cost to book, and because accidents happen, protection against costly charges. Plan terms and conditions provided by request after booking.
