What a great home away from home! My husband and I and our dog stayed here for 2 nights, and we had our kids and their families over for Christmas Eve. It was perfect. The kids loved the giant yard. The 2nd bedroom was the perfect quiet place for the baby’s nap. The living room was large enough that we could spread out and open gifts. This is the cleanest rental I’ve ever stayed in. Everything was spotless and the property is well maintained. The listing pics don’t do justice to the very cool vibe Jana has going on in there. All the furniture is comfy cozy and dog friendly!Jana is an excellent host! I would definitely stay again and recommend to anyone looking for a far-south Austin place to stay.

This property was great! Spacious, clean, quiet, FULL of amenities, good location. Host was very responsive. The only issue we had was we weren't allowed to have family members gather without prior approval? Apparently this was against HOA/Village/Neighborhood/VRBO rules? A neighbor reported a "party" which in fact was 7 people INSIDE, (5 were over the age of 50) and only 2 vehicles in drive. We were told we needed prior approval to do this. (apparently I missed this part when booking) But when I booked the VRBO, I didn't know other family members were going to be in town (to visit my sick husband) so we planned a last minute gathering to order pizza and play pool/ping pong. In spite of this, I would still recommend the property, but my advise is to let the owner know your plans for the property in advance. Ironically, we rented the property for 4 adults and one pet, but due to a daughter's cancelation, only my husband and I stayed for the 9 nights. And after this incident, were hesitant to have our other daughter and her family visit as that would have been an additional 6 people.

Great, quiet home located away from the busy part of Austin, but still nearby all the things you want.Safe neighborhood with plenty of room for 4 adults. Had a pool table and hot tub that we did not use, but they looked great.
