Inside house was clean. Had to wash towels on 2nd day. Wet laundry already in washer and the dryer was full. Back yard needed mowed bad! Lawn furniture was dirty. BBQ pit was very dirty. Outside of property is very neglected.

Longhorns Football
Property is exactly as listed. Very well stocked with everything you need. Close to downtown but out of the city so it was the perfect location for this trip. Very quiet and safe location in nice neighborhood at the end of a culdesac. About a $35 Uber trip to 6th Street at off peak times. Careful exiting the driveway as it is fairly steep and I almost ripped the front end off the car. Thankful it was a rental. Just take it slow when leaving. The pool looked nice but we had very cool weather on our trip so we did not use it. Easy drive to DKR. I would highly recommend this property for the Austin area and especially for Longhorn football games if you don’t want the craziness of downtown Austin.

Beautiful home & location. Everything was perfect during our stay. Small family gathering went great & the space in the home inside & out was perfect for our stay. The host responded promptly to any questions we had. I would most certainly reserve this home again.

Perfect Vacation Setting!
Our family wanted a vacation where we could be together in a peaceful setting with a swimming pool. This property was EVERYTHING we hoped for! Because of the beautiful trees surrounding the yard, the swimming pool stayed cool/cold the entire week. The house is spacious with plenty of seating and all of the amenities. The host is 5 stars! We definitely will want to come back!

Great Place for a Staycation
Property had everything we needed to get away, while staying within city limits. We loved the outdoor space and pool, and the upstairs living area was great. We also loved being able to bring our furry family members along! Overall it was a great place to stay and we hope to come again :)

Exceeded our expectations!
We had such a wonderful time at Chris’ home! The backyard exceeded our expectations and was even nicer than in the pictures. The pool was the perfect size and had a decent amount of shade, which was perfect for our kids. Chris was a super responsive and accommodating host. We would absolutely come stay here again!

Perfect getaway
Chris was a very thoughtful and responsive host. Our accommodations were ideal for us. We booked for a stay during the total eclipse and this proved to be a perfect spot. Chris stopped by the next morning to bring us a framed eclipse photo as a memento. How kind!
