A Perfect VRBO

We were a small work group staying there and we couldn't have asked for a better set up. The house was great, the location was perfect, and the owner was super responsive to all our questions. Highly recommend!

Great spot

Was in town with friends for our fantasy football draft and loved staying here! Plenty of places for everyone to sleep (couches are a bit uncomfortable as beds, but work). Pool was perfect and having the shaded patio was key. Fairly close to everything as well.

The Best Austin Group Rental

We absolutely loved our stay at Dana's house in Austin. It was spacious, clean, and the pool was amazing. The separate guest house was great for guests who wanted more peace and quiet. The place is near a cafe/restaurant/bar but quiet at night. It is a convenient 15 minute walk or 4-5 min Uber to the major Austin places. Would highly recommend this for any group events/gathering in Austin.

Bachelorette Party

I stayed here with a group of girls and the house was perfect. It's exactly as it appears in the pictures and meets your expectations. The second house is super close and we did not feel like we were separated or like anyone was excluded. The host left us beers in the fridge for our arrival to get the party started, special towles in the bathrooms for makeup remover and other nice little touches. We were able to easily order food/groceries/alcohol on delivery apps like instacart, drizzly and doordash. The house is centered to everything we needed to get to which made ubering very easy. The host was very quick to respond when I needed her, which was only once during the stay since we did not have any problems/questions. I would definitely recommend this house and plan to stay here again on my next trip to Austin. The only thing I would recommend is to bring a hair dryer because we did not and were unable to find one in the house.

Austin Weekend with Friends

Spent the weekend in Austin with a group of friends, 11 total. The house has plenty of space both inside and out to accommodate a large group. It's also within walking distance to many restaurants and bars in east Austin. The host, Dana, was very friendly and communicative.

Perfect Location!

We rented this house for a group of 11 girls. Great location and house. The host gave us some great food and coffee recs that we went to each morning. Unfortunately it was too cold to use the pool but would have been perfect if it was warmer.

Great bachelorette house!

The house was spacious, beds were comfy, the pool was amazing! Easy to get a Lyft or Uber to other areas. I would stay here again! If you plan on cooking bring some foil/ ziplocks/ Tupperware for your leftovers- there wasn’t anything to store food in. It was a little noisy, but it was Halloween weekend. Across from the fire station so there was some siren noise too.

Great stay in Austin!

We had a wonderful time in Austin at this property! It was clean and had plenty of space to hangout in the kitchen and living room. It was very nice to have a pool at the property. The host was very accommodating and was quick to respond! The only thing the house didn't have was some basic spices (salt, pepper, etc.) for cooking. Overall, a great stay and location!!

Great house & awesome location!

My friends and I had such a great time in Austin, which a lot of it can be attributed to this Vrbo! It had everything we needed (& more) and was so close to everything - quick uber to Rainey and SOCO, but also walking distance to bars, restaurants and grocery stores. It's also convenient to the airport, which made flying in and out a breeze. I would definitely stay here again in a future trip to ATX!

Great spot to stay for Austin

We were here for my brother's 30th birthday and it was such a great place to stay. Dana was very gracious and even had some coffee and refreshments waiting for us in the fridge. Everything in the house was labeled which helped out a lot. We were here in the winter, so we didn't get a chance to enjoy the pool but it looks like it would be great on a summer day since there were pool noodles on hand. It's a quick Uber/Lyft to Rainey St and Dirty 6.

About the host

Hosted by Dana (AustinPoolHouse)

Hi - my name is Dana! I have lived and traveled around the world, I proudly call Austin home now, be glad to show you around.

Why they chose this property

Just like you, we love to stay in vacation rental home when we travel. We always enjoy hanging out with families and friends after a long day, that's why we make sure this house is perfect for a "travel gathering".

What makes this property unique

It's really hard to find a house in downtown Austin that has pool. Not only this house is so close to downtown, the designer pool in the backyard is surrounded by tall bamboos, it makes you feels like you are at a private spa, our guests absolutely love it.
