Place needs some work but great location
Lots of repair and fixes are needed-and carpet needs to be replaced upstairs but a great Austin location with a great neighborhood for walks.

spacious home in beautiful, quiet neighborhood
This is the perfect retreat for a family or a few couples looking to relax near downtown Austin. We loved the sunroom and living room for hanging out. It's just a few minutes to the wonderful Mozart's Cafe and a few more to Deep Eddy Pool. We brought our small dog with us and he loved our walks near the lake.

Family Thanksgiving
Enjoyed the big family room it was too cold to enjoy the outside areas. We had wonderful lunch in the dining room.
The location was great and the home perfect for our Son’s graduation weekend events. The deck was a perfect location to hang out and visit with our family. Only a 10 minute ride to campus and 10 minute walk to the lake.

Nice, quiet retreat
We came to Austin for the Depeche Mode concert and the Texas/Kansas game. After the crowds and the noise, this house was exactly what we needed - it was quiet and relaxing. The perfect retreat from the hustle and bustle of the city!
After alerting guest services about a couple concerns, most of them were promptly taken care of. Great location
