Fantastic!

The location was absolutely perfect! We were near enough to the fun areas to be able to walk and enjoy all that Austin has to offer, but we were also able to go back to a quiet, relaxing and comfortable location to rest and wind down. The cottage is well stocked with all of the necessities! Charmingly decorated and comfortable! We were also pleasantly surprised to find an Nespresso coffee maker with multiple coffee, selections, available, as well as a traditional coffee maker, and Starbucks ready and waiting for us. The host was very responsive and offered some great selections for dining when asked for recommendations! Although we did not bring our dogs with us for this trip, the home has a large fenced yard perfect for dogs to run and play along with a charming porch and sitting area for you to be able to enjoy the weather! We will absolutely be back and bring our pups! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and would love to come back! Fantastic!

Austin

We were in Austin for the f1 race, the house was 20-30 minutes from the track. There a few good restaurants within walking distance and it’s a nice neighborhood for walking. Otherwise, a short drive to get groceries, visit downtown or dine further away. The house was well equipped and the owners were very responsive. When we inquired about a drip coffee maker, they ordered one and had it delivered the next day. The upper bedroom was spacious and open. There is no door on the ensuite bathroom which I would have preferred for privacy but we made it work for us. Beds were comfortable and we slept well. Nice to have laundry access so we could wash everything before we went to our next destination. Thought it was a lovely spot and would definitely recommend it.
