Why the Owner Chose Austin

Central Austin is so convenient...close to everything. Allendale is one of those "Leave to Beaver" neighborhoods that you just don't want to miss. Come home to our house!

 

Owner's Map of Austin

A few years ago my husband and I were looking for a business that we would enjoy when we decided to retire. We started with one vacation rental property in 2007, and we now have 4 properties and manage a fifth. The best part of this business is the variety of guests that we have hosted. Our goal is to offer a uniquely Austin experience in a wonderfully inviting home environment. With our retirement plans still on the horizon, we could not be happier with our choice to offer ourselves as your hosts.

    • We stayed at Hillhouse in September during my son's wedding week. When wedding preparations got very hectic, it was a joy to come home to this peaceful haven. The girls went to a bridal luncheon one day and my husband had the men folk over for a KC BBQ on the back patio. The day after the wedding,we invited friends over - once again to the patio - for a relaxing day of tacos and beer. Cindy was wonderful to work with and very gracious. Back home, my husband (who frequently wakes up early and can't go back to sleep) commented on how he slept through like a baby each night in Austin. What more can you say? We're renting another VRBO over Christmas in Oklahoma. My standards have been set very high so we'll see if it even compares!

    • We had a wonderful Labor Day weekend wedding at this house. The Grandkids loved the WII room. The house is beautiful and well furnished. We hope to come back to visit our new family in Austin and stay here when we come back. Cindy and Armin are easy to work with. Loved everything about the house (except for the really big lighting and wind storm). Mike and Mary. Oak Harbor, Washington

    • We had a wonderful stay for "Bridesmaid Weekend" to pick out dresses and enjoy shopping, seeing the wedding venue and just having fun. The groom enjoyed grilling for us all one night and we cooked several meals. Everything was well stocked and convenient. We enjoyed the video games also. Recommend this wonderful house to anyone. Thank you!!

    • Cindy and Armin's place was just perfect! The home exceeded our expectations and provided more than our basic necessities. We hosted a BBQ for our friends and group and it turned out so well! The BBQ patio is conveniently located right by the game room for entertainment. All the beds are very comfortable to sleep in. Cindy is a wonderful person and assisted us with whatever we needed. She took time to come and greet our group and deliver our most needed air mattresses. My favorite feature of the house is the kitchen because it is located in the central area of the house which is very convenient for hosting dinners and providing meals for large groups. The Kitchen was equipped with everything we needed. I especially like the modern design of the kitchen utensils. Overall it was a wonderful stay and I highly recommend this place to stay. We were truly lucky.

    • We rented the Stanwood house when we came to town for our daughter's wedding. Good neighborhood, nicely furnished, and central to everything. We entertained the in-laws for dinner, and everyone was impressed. My granddaughter especially enjoyed the game room and the playground across the street. We recommend this house, and will likely be back!

    • This was a wonderful experience for us. The information was readily provided and the check in was flawless. We especially enjoyed the Wii, extra room and decor. The house was very comfortable with easy access to Austin and the nearby sights. We hope to use this house again for our next trip.

    • Adorable House! I rented this house to host an out of town bridal shower. The layout worked perfectly! Everything was decorated beautifully and immaculately clean. The house is very open and bright. Everything we needed was already there and the beds were SO comfortable. We could not get the TV to work, and the owners were there in less than 30 minutes to help us fix the problem. I would absolutely recommend this house to anyone who wants to get away or host a party. I got tons of compliments.

    • We had a great stay in the Stanwood house, it is beautifully furnished and well equipped with everything you need - and all brand new. Very close to lots of shops and restaurants, yet everything in the kitchen to cook meals at home as well. A short drive to downtown and having the playground across the road was great for the kids. Cindy and Armin are excellent hosts and made sure everything was just right. Would definitely recommend this house.
