Tour UT campus
Our family came to Austin so my 17 year old step-daughter could tour UT's campus. This home was close to campus, so it was in a great location for us. This house was beautiful, clean,and communication with the property owners was great. My whole family enhoyed our stay. You can tell the owners take pride in this home and put a lot of effort into making it a comfortable place to stay.

Great house close to UT and walkable amenities
The house was even more impressive in person than in the pictures...new ultra modern construction, and impeccably clean with top-notch furnishings. This is a great house to spread out and relax. The location is very convenient, with quick and easy freeway access and there are some very good restaurant options that are walkable, as is the UT Austin campus, and it is a very short Uber ride to 6th street and other downtown attractions. The hosts were super responsive but not intrusive. I'd definitely stay at this property again.
