The Very Best of Austin Hospitality! MomInBlack Cuyahoga Falls, OH USA Review Submitted: January 21, 2009 Date of Stay: January 2009 Being a former resident of Austin for 17 years, I can tell you from experience that this vacation rental offers the very best of Austin hospitatliy and style! If you want to have an authentic "Austin Experience" this homey and comfortable cottage is the place to be. As far as ammenties, you will find nothing lacking. I think I spent as much time on the deck as in the house, soaking up the sun and admiring the view, while drinking a cup of excellent coffee. In the evening, with a warm fire in the chiminea, and a cold Shiner beer, the deck was the perfect way to kick back and relax and at the end of the day. If you are a "linen snob", this is the place for you. Excellent beds and bedding, big fluffy towels, not your usual hotel fare when traveling. Oh, and the shower! Let's hear it for water pressure! And with the on demand water heater, no waiting for hot water to take a shower when your group is in a hurry to get out and see the sights. My thirteen year old daughter, a budding photographer, especially liked Stacy Park, and spent time there taking pictures. This house is a great place for shutterbugs, and kids of all ages. A friend visited with her dog, and they found the place totally pet friendly with the park across the street, and fenced in back yard. Here's a tip for those of us who like to shop, but don't like the "cookie cutter" clothing that you usually find at big box retailers, and malls. After a "wardrobe malfunction", my daughter and I made an emergency shopping trip to the boutiques in SoCo. While you would expect boutique clothes shopping in an arts district to be a pricey proposition, we found beautiful and unique clothes for suprisingly reasonable prices. As to be expected, all of the sales staffs in the shops of SoCo were attentive and friendly, which is typical of Austin. They turned an unplanned, (and potentially stressed out), last minute shopping trip into a pleasant experience. A big "Thank You So Very Much" to Sandy, she is awesome. You will find that you are at want for nothing during your stay in this house, as she is so personable, prompt, and attentive. As many before me have stated in their reviews, we will be back to our "home away from home" in Austin for our next visit.
