The property was exactly as described and matched the photos perfectly with no surprises, which was a huge plus! The home was clean, beautifully decorated, and very comfortable, with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a cozy living room, and a well-stocked kitchen that had everything we needed.Our favorite part was definitely the outdoor spaces. We loved relaxing together on the deck, spending time under the large oak tree, and soaking up a little sunshine. The hosts were incredibly kind, responsive, and helpful whenever we had questions.The neighborhood was peaceful and quiet, which made our stay even more enjoyable. We did drive to downtown Austin and other spots since it was a bit too hot for walking. Overall, we highly recommend this home for anyone visiting Austin!

A win!

We stayed here for our family holiday weekend, the despite the rain, the house was a great spot for me and my family! The kitchen was our favorite, a great gathering spot, and though we couldn’t use the outdoor area very much it was great to have. The pull out sofa was a little uncomfy, but still got the job done.

Great 3 day trip in Austin

This property is so pretty. Kitchen was beautiful and had everything we needed, very clean and updated. It was a quick girls weekend to visit my niece in Austin. It was just the right size for five women. We loved the cocktail pool, big enough to cool off and sit around the sides. The many outside seating areas had great outdoor furniture and the side deck next to the kitchen was convenient to have our coffee in the morning. Our hostess was very friendly and made sure we had everything we needed.

Fabulous!

We had an excellent stay on this property. Lynn and Jerry were very easy to communicate. They helped us get a fan and ice delivered to alleviate issues we had with one of the overhead fans which was amazing. Huge kitchen with plenty of dishes and utensils. Perfect location. Amazing outdoor space with tons of seating. Comfortable beds with plenty of indoor seating as well.

Great weekend away with friends

This house was a perfect oasis for our very fun girl's trip to Austin in late June. After site-seeing all day, we thoroughly enjoyed the cocktail pool and the cozy deck as welcome places to relax. The kitchen and bathrooms are gorgeous and the beds were wonderful. The house is an easy, short car ride from everything fun. Thanks so much for a great place to stay.

Can a vrbo be spacious and feel cozy at the same time? Can you be close to all the happenings and still feel secluded? Can you feel at home while in new surroundings? Yesss!!. This place was way better than the pictures and the pictures were pretty attractive. We were very comfortable and left wanting for nothing. We didn't want to leave. Would definitely recommend this place. Thank you Lynn and Jerry for providing such a magnificent place to stay.

Great for a Girls Weekend!!

This property was even better than the pictures! So much space for all of our group to sleep comfortably and to hang out on our one night in. It’s super close to downtown, so catching Ubers to anywhere we needed to be was easy and quick. The hosts were super communicative and helpful throughout the entire stay and even after as we are trying to retrieve a lost item. They was also super helpful with recommendations before our stay as well. Would definitely recommend and stay here again and again for any trips to Austin!

Cancelled at the last minute

We were unable to stay at this property, as our reservation was cancelled the morning of the confirmed booking. I had not received an access code, so I called VRBO's call center. After 1 1/2 hours on the phone with the call center, I learned that the property owner had not maintained their VRBO calendar and had double booked the property, We were denied access to the property.
