Great home, clean with good amenities. Walkable to so many great restaurants. Amber was so friendly and responsive. We ran into Amber and her family at one of the dinner spots (Loudmouth) she recommended, they were great, as was the food. Hate to share this gem, but highly recommend. Thank you Amber!

Amazing Home!

This place was perfect and Amber was accommodating and just amazing! She got us in early and let us have a late check out. The house was more than spacious and had a great outdoor area to hang out in. I highly recommend this place when staying in Austin. The location is great and easily accessible to everywhere we wanted to go.

Great Stay

I stayed at the house for three nights for a bachelor party in October. The house is exactly as pictured very nice and very clean. The house has a ton of bedrooms and can accommodate a big group. Great location near 6th street..walkable but we took cabs which was quick and inexpensive. Lillie and Amber were great and very responsive. I highly recommend staying here.

Nice Stay, Watch Out for Fees

**CITY TAX IS NOT INCLUDED IN BOOKING FEES** The stay was nice and in a pretty good location (~15-20 min walk to 6th Street). The 11 beds were perfect for our size group. Host communication was a bit difficult, and we didn't get the check-in codes until we were on the way to the property from the airport. When she did communicate, she was very nice. One warning for future travelers: the price you see on VRBO is less than you will pay total. She will request additional money per the rental agreement to pay the Austin City Resort Tax. I'm not sure why this hasn't been included in the visible booking fees, but it was definitely a surprise for us.

Response from VrboOwner on 12 May 2022
Thank you for you stay and respecting our home. We do not provide instructions on how to enter the home until the day of for security purposes. Unfortunately, VRBO has changed the option to include the tax portion into the additional quote. They remit 6% of the 17% taxes that are required as a short term rental. It is our responsibility to collect the additional 11% taxes after the booking. Trust me that it is a pain for both the host and guest and I have spoken with VRBO many times to ask for this to be included. This is stated on our main page and contract. I apologize for the confusion and hope that we can accommodate you in the future.

Lovely Stay

Thanks so much for a great stay. We were a group of 7 and each one of us got our own beds, plenty of room for all and very comfy beds. The host was super helpful and gave recommendations for local spots to go to for drinks and dinner. Very easy check in and check out process and the house was very clean and spacious. We also loved the touch of the lit up Christmas tree! How sweet! Thanks for having us!

Great space for large groups!

The space was exactly as pictured and had more than enough room for everyone. It was perfect for a long weekend with a large group. It is within walking distance to a few bars and restaurants and Ubers are plentiful. Amber was great helping us check in and recommend places in the areas. The only thing I was not aware of was the extra tax after payments were due but looking back it looks like it was noted in the description and others reviews. Would recommend to other in the future!

Great place for a large group

Very spacious for large groups, plenty of beds for our party to choose from ad four full bathrooms meant it never took us long to get ready. House is clean and modern, located in a safe and quiet walkable neighborhood with food options nearby. It's a short uber ride to both Rainey and 6th Street. The property manager Amber was friendly, helpful, and great at communicating prior to and during our stay. She also helped us arrange an early check-in, a late check-out, and safe place to store our bags after check-out before heading back to the airport. She also gave us plenty of recommendations of things to do in the city. I highly recommend this property for larger groups that do not want to feel confined to a smaller space or that do not want to share beds or sleep on couches due to lack of sleeping arrangements. Our group of 7 slept comfortably but this property could easily accommodate groups of 10 or more without having to share beds. We were very comfortable and it made our trip to Austin memorable and fun!

Wonderful Austin Stay!

I stayed in this home with a handful friends for a long weekend in Austin. The house is even more beautiful than the photos convey - and very clean! The living space is open and perfect for hanging out in large groups. There are so many beds that each person was able to have their own! Plenty of bathrooms and showers to go around as well. The check in process with Amber was very easy. The house is not quite in walking distance of the major areas, but it's very close by uber/lyft. Would definitely recommend this house to other big parties! Nikki
