    • Just had a "girls weekend" reunion and decided to do it at a rented house rather than in a hotel because we were wanting that all-important "hang out" time to laugh and catch up. The Kinney house gave us that and more. Very comfy and accomodating. We had a blast and appreciated the convenient location and the fact that the ammenities provided made the house feel like home. THANK you, Connie! I will be recommending your place to friends and family visiting Austin from now on!

      Homeowner Response:
      Marla, Thanks so much. Glad you enjoyed the house and its great location. And thanks for the referrals! Very appreciated. Connie

      Homeowner Response:
      Glad you liked the location and the house! Whew...a Triathlon. I AM impressed! Thanks so much. Connie

    • Hi Connie: Thanks for the use of your Kinney Ave house this past week. It was ideal for us. We got our daughter moved out of her apt at U.T. The house is very well equipped (some aren't), and the coffee in the freezer was a nice touch. We really like the location just off Lamar, as it is walking distance to a couple of my cousins' houses as well as an easy run up to UT or down "Manshack" to my uncle's house. Thanks again.

      Homeowner Response:
      I agree, the location is great! You all were wonderful. Thank you!

    • LOVED my stay at the Kinney House. Fantastic house and ideal location to everything worth doing in Austin. The house is perfect for groups of 3-5 people looking to crash for music festivals or couples looking to spend a nice weekend together. Connie (the owner) was very accommodating to everything we needed. Will be staying here again on future trips to Austin!!

      Homeowner Response:
      Todd - You guys rock! Thanks so much! Connie
