REFUNDS. All refunds will be issued in accordance with the booking platform`s refund policy, less any applicable credit card processing fees.
IMPORTANT!! PLEASE READ ALL OF THIS!

I want you to have an enjoyable and memorable stay. I also want to make sure the property is left in good condition for the next guests to enjoy. So please observe these rules for the safety of you, your family, friends and for the protection of the property.

-There is absolutely no smoking anything inside or outside of the house. If you smoke, this may not be the property for you. There is a $100 fine if we find cigarette butts or evidence of smoking anything, anywhere. You can smoke in your car.
-Please notify us in advance if you are planning to have a small celebration with your registered guests.
-Please notify us in advance if you will be bringing pets. We have a max of 2 allowed and you must be ok with our pet rules:
-Keep pets off all furniture and bedding.
-No unsupervised pets in the backyard under any circumstances.
-Pets are not allowed in the pool or gardens.
-Please pick up pet waste before checking out.

-No unsupervised children in yard under any circumstances.
-Swing set is made for children and may not be safe for people over 100 lbs.
-Playhouse is made of wood and may give your kid a splinter. No one over 100 lbs.
-The pool is a private pool and has a deep end of ~10 feet and a shallow end of ~3.5 feet. There is no pool fence and no lifeguard on duty. Swim at your own risk. Supervise children and pets in the backyard at all times. We maintain the pool all year, with weekly pool service. You must be ok with the pool company possibly showing up during your stay to do their job. They will enter through the side gate and will take about 30 minutes to do their job.
If you notice the pool doesn`t look right or is starting to turn green, please notify me immediately.
-Pools break unexpectedly sometimes (just like cars do). We do everything we can to fix it immediately when it happens but sometimes it`s not possible. It rarely happens, but it does happen. The pool chemicals are balanced and safe to swim in most of the time, even when something goes wrong with the equipment. You have to be ok with this possibility. Full refunds will not be given if the pool is not usable for some reason, but you will get a partial refund for not being able to use it. Again, this would be a rarity for the pool not to be usable.
-On Wednesdays, weather permitting, the lawn crew shows up to mow the front and back yards. They will enter through the side gate and take about 30 minutes to do their job. You have to be ok with the lawn crew showing up during your stay. I will not cancel them.
-Absolutely no playing on or around the shed and other materials on the sides of the property.
-After using the gas grill, please use the provided tools and citrus spray to clean the grill after it cools down. If you do not clean it, there is a $25 charge.
-No glitter or confetti of any size is allowed inside or outside the house. It`s too hard to clean up. If we find glitter or confetti there will be a $100 minimum additional cleaning fee.
-Wind down the patio umbrella when not in use. If there are high winds, do not use the umbrella. It will break and I`ll have to charge a $600 replacement fee. We check between each reservation.
-If something breaks or doesn`t work, please report it to us right away so that we can work to fix it during your stay.

    We loved this property! It’s roomy but cozy and has that “old Austin” feel that we love so much!The area was safe and nice, house had everything we needed, beds were super comfy, host was flexible and responsive, and the pool is large in a nice yard! We wrote this down as one of our favorite Austin stays!

    We loved the house and the pool! The decorations inside the house were super unique and fun and felt very homey and eclectic. Kim was very good at responding and super accommodating to my guest size, even allowing me to have day visitors in addition to my already existing guests that were spending the night. My only complaint is there were a couple things in the backyard that looked worn, dirty and a bit rundown like the rug and some of the fence work but I understand the property and neighborhood is a bit older so it’s just age I think. Also we had airplanes flying over us constantly because of how close we were to the airport but that’s not the hosts fault at all, my friends and I had fun waving at the planes whenever one passed over us. Over all a fun place and we felt welcomed.

    I absolutely loved this house. It’s the perfect location in ATX right in the middle of everything. I love how spacious the rooms were and of course the pool was AMAZING!! I love how the owner was fast at responding and always kept communication with me. We will definitely be staying here again when we come back to Austin!

    We came to Austin to go to the theater to see Hamilton. We needed a place that had at least 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms and this listing fit the bill. We were all comfortable and had the privacy we needed.

    We came to Austin for a girls’ trip and it was everything we needed! The location is fantastic, 10-20 minutes away from anything worth seeing in Austin. The pool was great for hanging out in the heat. Plenty of seating and comfortable furniture. Host was polite, kind, and supportive. They had everything we needed in the kitchen and for the pool. Best short term rental I’ve ever stayed at for a large group. Would definitely stay there again! ??

    The house was very cozy and had plenty of amenities. The pool was fantastic but a little too warm to use during the day, but that’s to be expected during August in Texas. Easy check in and check out instructions, all requests related to clean up and using the home were reasonable. We had a great time and would stay again.

    Accomodations were comfy & room to socialize. The pool & toys were the main attraction, toys & towels were nice. Marked depths would be helpful with kids. The infant items that we thought we were going to have to do without were very helpful (but not listed). Playground was super for kids (but not listed). Kitchen was fully stocked & toiletries were great. The only improvement for this family would be a handicap accessible bedroom/bathroom. We had a great time & appreciate the owners kindness!

    Very roomy and comfortable home for the three of us, with plenty of room to spare. Pictures were very accurate on website, nothing fancy on the inside, but furnishings and interior are cute and very well maintained. Nice outdoor area with fenced backyard, and large in-ground pool made the July weather bearable. Location was ideal as Franklin's BBQ and Expressways about 10 minutes away. Seems like a nice quiet neighborhood, and wife felt safe getting her morning walks in. Would definitely consider staying here again.

    The location was convenient & the house cozy. Everything was fairly well maintained & the amenities mostly took care of our needs. The kids were in the pool often & the pool toys available were very helpful. Be careful with bare feet in the pool - nearly all of our kids’ feet were scratched up by the pool wall. Checkin & checkout was super easy. The lack of kitchen cooking supplies made it difficult to cook for our large group & no storage supplies were available (Tupperware/ziploc bags). The shower curtains could use a refresh. Overall, we’d definitely stay again.

    House has plenty of room, backyard feels secluded and the pool is a good size. 10-15 minutes to UT and downtown which was nice. Host was great with communications and answered questions/fixed small issues very quickly. Would definitely stay again.
