    My friends & family really enjoyed having my bachelor party here. Place was clean & had a ton of character, In-law unit in the back was super nice as well. Great location, Quick to downtown & about 8 mins from lake austin for a party boat adventure. Pool was great too.The location backs up to a creek and everyone got eaten alive so bring/buy bug spray!Also We had about 15 ppl & felt like it was perfect but 20 may feel tight especially of there’s only guys like my group. (Non of us wanted to triple up on a king. Lol.) Great place & perfect for large parties. Highly recommend.

    We loved the whole place so much, plenty of space and the team was great at communicating! Only thing was the pull out couch in the upstairs was a really hard place for two people to sleep as it is totally in the open part of the upstairs and the bed itself was extremely uncomfortable. Overall we had a great experience though the rest of the house is perfect for a large group

    While the home has several upgrades and renovations, there are key safety concerns that were not disclosed by the owners. The basement, which is minimally shown in the listing, includes multiple walk-out sliding doors that lead directly to a poorly fenced, uncovered pool. When we arrived, one of these slider doors was not only unlocked but fully open, creating both a security and mosquito issue. The windows in the basement are in poor condition, with several broken or non-functioning latches, making the space unsuitable for young children.Additionally, a large tree obstructs access to the lower driveway, preventing SUVs from reaching the flat parking area. This detail was only updated on the guest page after we raised the concern. We also found numerous wasp nests around the property, beer and food in the fridge and a mold-filled washing machine that required extensive cleaning before use.I reached out to the owners, and while they responded promptly by sending someone over, the individual was limited in what he could address. Several issues require permanent resolution to make the property truly suitable for families. The listing should accurately reflect the large sliding doors and the safety concerns they pose, particularly for young children. The windows and fence need proper repair, the overhanging tree and wasp nests should be removed, and the cleaning crew replaced, the mold and cleanliness were unacceptable.

    The house is actually bigger that what the pictures show, and I feel like that never happens with an online listing. The style and decor throughout the house feels like a super swanky, boutique hotel. We comfortably slept 16 friends and family members. The main floor living room/kitchen was the perfect hang space at the end of a night out. The only drawback is there's only 1 bathroom on the main floor that is supposed to service the 8 people that sleep in the basement. All the upstairs rooms have their own bathrooms. We ended up sharing showers which was fine, but an additional bathroom in the basement would've been the best fix. The pool area is fantastic, but the water was pretty icy. I'm sure the trees in the back are clutch during the hot summer to block out some of the sun, but in April, the mix of little sun and icy pool kept us from fully enjoying. The location worked out well for us. You can walk to a few bars, restaurants and liquor stores. We ended up catching Ubers everywhere else. This house (like many VRBO/AirB&B) charges the typical high priced cleaning fee, but then also demands you to wash towels, do dishes, take out the trash, etc. Overall, I'd 100% book this place again. It was perfect home base to celebrate and take in Austin.

    This Vrbo was perfect for a group of 12. Very beautiful setup and the living room/kitchen area was even more spacious in person. Host was quick to respond to any questions. The patio area is perfect to sit and soak up the sunshine. Bathrooms were all clean and well-stocked with towels and other provided amenities. House is also only a 15-min or less drive to other popular places in the city, and in walking distance to some coffee and food spots. The group enjoyed their stay.

    We were a group of 9 High School Seniors and 4 moms staying at the house for the second ACL Weekend. The house was great and when we asked about more blankets, towels and a colander, the property manager had them delivered to us. We used the kitchen a little bit with easy food preparation and breakfast.
