This is our second time to stay here and it was great! It’s such a cute house, has a great pool and the location is awesome! Perfect for a girls weekend getaway!
Great place, walkable to restaurants and coffee shops. Pool/ spa was so relaxing and house has everything you might need: coffee, comfy beds, and shampoo/ conditioner. Would definitely stay here again!!

Thank you for your feedback. We are glad you had a wonderful stay and are happy to hear you'd return!
Great location, fun house, wonderful outside, and close to great food & shopping
The property is wonderful as pictured and explained. Host quick to respond. Location great; close to restaurants and shops. Outside areas are such a great add; special spaces to relax and cool off in the pool.
Had a great weekend at this house. Lovely property in a great neighborhood just south of downtown. Well-appointed amenities as well. Will stay here again next time we are in town. Loved it!
This is a beautiful property and is exactly as described in the listing. My wife and I had a great experience. There's plenty of space and the pool/outdoor area is perfect. The location is ideal for access to downtown (and not far from everything else in Austin). We will definitely stay there again!
We booked this property to have a fun weekend away with some friends and loved every second of it! The location, the house, the amenities, were all AS ADVERTISED, and we plan on using this property as it’s available when we go to Austin moving forward! Also, the proximity to downtown was amazing and it was a great walk down to the river from the house! Couldn’t say enough great things about this property!
The place is WONDERFUL!! The ambiance, decor, cleanliness, coziness… I could go on and on about how fabulous this place is. We enjoyed every second of your weekend getaway. From the pool to the comfy sofa to the rocking chairs under the shade trees… We loved it, and look forward to returning in the future ❤️😁
A really lovely home. Well appointed; great pool and hot tub. Absolutely fantastic host - would reply to our questions within minutes and really went out of her way to help. The location - both within 10-15 of downtown - and 5 mins walk from a cool area on Congress. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
Property is very nice, quiet area. There’s a short learning process with the amenities which are controlled by the provided iPad. It’s really the way to go, so live and learn!
Overall a very nice home with a nice outside.
This is one of the rare VRBOs that's actually better in real life than in the listing photos. The home is incredibly charming and filled with thoughtful ammenities. The pool, hot tub, and fire pit actually worked and were properly maintained. There were interesting objects, books, and instruments at every turn. And there was a coffee shop/face just up the street in walking distance. It truly felt like an oasis in the middle of Austin, and we would 100% stay there again. Highly recommended!
Carly was an excellent host. The house had everything we needed, was very comfortable, and was close to restaurants and shopping. The only reason I didn’t leave a five for check in was because of the quirky front door, which took a little finagling to get into. However, Carly was super responsive, and easy to get a hold of and she walked us through that. I’d definitely stay here again if coming back to Austin!
I can’t say enough positive things about this home. Every detail is beautifully thought out, with guests’ comfort and happiness in mind. Every single immaculate room is its own unique experience. And the pool and other outdoor areas are heavenly! It was hard to tear ourselves away to explore the rest of Austin, but the house is in a great location for walking to restaurants and shops. And Carly is a kind and responsive host. We didn’t want to leave!

Hi Andrew, the right vacation home is everything, and we're disappointed if this wasn't the one for you. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they wanted to share the following: - We encourage guests to thoroughly review the listing before booking, to ensure they find the perfect vacation home for their needs. The listing does state that we offer guests 3 flat-screen Smart TVs w/ Netflix, but we’re sorry if this caught you off guard. - We do not advertise offering cable TV channels, however, we’re sorry that you were disappointed and not able to watch the Jets playoff game on cable TV. Thank you for reaching out to us during your stay so we could accommodate you by setting up Apple TV and YouTube TV. We were more than happy to resolve your concerns and make your stay more comfortable.- Our listing reflects the layout of the home, though we’re sorry if you were caught off-guard. We pride ourselves on being transparent and accommodating to all guests and would have been more than happy to walk you through the exact layout of the home before you booked. - We use local, professional photographers to make sure that the listing photos correctly reflect the property, so the features you see on the listing are accurately advertised, and guests can decide before booking if the home meets their expectations.- We have high standards of hospitality and prioritize every guest experience by doing all we can to accommodate guests. We're sorry that you felt our efforts were insufficient. - As you can see by our many great reviews, we are accustomed to providing five-star experiences, and we look forward to this property hosting many happy travelers!
