CANCELLATIONS AND REFUND REQUESTS
We understand there can be unforeseen circumstances regarding your travel plans. Please note that travelers who cancel at least 60 days before check-in will receive a 100% refund. If there is a cancellation between 30 and 60 days before check-in, a 50% refund will be granted. No refund will be given if the cancellation is within 30 days of your stay.
It is our recommendation that travelers consider purchasing travel insurance from a 3rd party carrier in order to transfer the potential financial impact a cancellation may cause. We do not do so on your behalf. Third party insurance carriers can reimburse the traveler for prepaid, nonrefundable trip costs when someone must cancel for a covered reason.
Regardless of whether you purchase travel insurance or not, we try to minimize the financial impact an unforeseen circumstance may cause. If a guest cancels less than 60 days before a stay, we will immediately open the booking calendar and look to rebook those dates with a different traveler. Although we cannot guarantee the success of this, the cancelling guest will only be financially responsible for the difference between their booking and the new one, if any.
PLEASE NOTE: As of March 14, 2020 VRBO no longer considers Covid as an extenuating circumstance for travelers who need to cancel.
We had a great time in this ideal house! Everything was just as described online, and we felt so comfortable! The teens and a few adults loved the game room! The master bedroom and bathroom were lovely and functional as well as the bunk rooms and other bedrooms! Thanks so much for a perfect experience!
My family stayed at this property while our primary home was having some repairs and renovation work done. The location was excellent, close to the grocery store, an awesome park and lots of great restaurants. The house itself was super clean and well maintained. You can tell the owners must have done a bunch of recent updates and upgrades throughout. Everyone had a blast using the pool, hot tub and grill. Plus, the upstairs loft has arcade games, a pool table and foosball which was a lot of fun for everyone. I highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a getaway with tons of entertainment options. The beds were comfy and plentiful. There were so many that our kids actually had a tough time figuring out which one to sleep on! Don't hesitate to book this one!
House was a perfect place for our family (7y/o-80+y/o) of 14 to gather. Plenty of room for everyone. Everyone enjoyed the pool and kids loved the game room. Was a good launching area into Austin and Lake Travis. All of the necessary amenities were available. Neighborhood was quiet. Owner was quick to respond to any questions.
The propert was beautiful and the homeowner was very communicative for any questions . We had a great time
This house was perfect for our trip for dance nationals. Lots of space for us all. The pool area was great and the kids loved the game room. It’s a close distance to everywhere we needed to go. Laurel was great to work with and responded quickly to questions. Can’t recommend this place enough!
Very nice and clean house. Plenty of amenities and the listing is very accurate. The pool was nice and the main reason for our stay, although the kids did enjoy playing with some of the video games upstairs. Very spacious and nicely decorated. A great place to relax and spend time with family or friends.
My kids had a blast in the pool, the grown ups loved the hot tub & the game room was from for everyone!
My family and I stayed here over the holidays. We had such a great time! The location is great, close to a few parks and grocery stores, and only about 20 minutes to Austin. There was plenty of space, lots of bedrooms and living areas. We loved the pool table and arcade games, they kept both kids and adults entertained! The backyard is very nice too, the pool and hot tub are clean and are great sizes. I loved that there was a Christmas tree and a few decorations for our stay, they were perfect personal touches. Would definitely recommend!
Renting was a breeze. Owner is extremely responsive and answered promptly.
We had a wonderful time at Cat Hollow. Laurel was very accommodating, considerate and easy to work with. The house was great and kids loved the heated pool and hot tub. The only negative was that the floors were a bit dirty and the online listing was a little misleading. The house accommodates 20 people but they charged extra for over 8 guests. The only thing I could find in the description was a statement that there was an extra charge for extra guests. That lead me to believe that it would be for guests over 20. Just build it into the price. Don’t nickel and dime me, please. There are enough fees!
Absolutely loved our stay at this lovely home!! Was perfect for our group!! Another frig would be a bonus?
We loved this property. We had so much fun, the house was clean and we were close to everything. We would stay here again!
We were in the area for a wedding and this was a great place for our extended family to stay so we could be together for a long weekend. We really enjoyed the pool and the large kitchen/family room where we could all spend time together.
The house is very nice. The game room and the pool/jacuzzi made it so we all had something to do to keep busy while we spent quality time together.
