The Zilker neighborhood is absolutely in the heart of everything Austin. The house is close to parks, Burton Springs and tons of great restaurants and event locations. Quiet and safe neighborhood. The house is charming with great surroundings.

Great location
Great location, unfortunately the air conditioning didn’t work in one of the units and could not be fixed during our stay. It was warm and uncomfortable. The cabinets in the kitchen were very hard to open I needed some fixing and there was not a lot of places to put your clothing in a few of the rooms. But the area was very nice close to everything and a good place for Multiple families.

Excellent Large Group Home
Myself and my party of 12 were in town for a bachelor and this home was perfect. Extremely clean, plenty of towels and linens, and most importantly plenty of beds. We had plenty of room to spread out and get ready to go out every night. Sally is an amazing host and I highly recommend staying here.

Great for large groups
We had a great time at the house. It is conveniently located. Everything was as advertised and we would recommend to others in future. The homeowner is also very responsive and accommodating.
