Austin gem
Our group was 5 adults and one toddler. The bungalow looked perfect in the photos and was even better in person. The bedrooms were spacious with comfortable beds. Having two well appointed bathrooms was wonderful. The kitchen looked very small in the pictures but was actually a good size and had everything we needed. We were worried about where we would all sit to eat since it was hard to tell in the pictures the size of the bar between the kitchen and living room, but it was wide enough for 5 adults to comfortably eat. There are 6 bar stools. We enjoyed the backyard picnic table also. The back yard is fenced which was perfect for our toddler. We walked to the H.E.B several times for groceries and prepared meals. There were several restaurants within walking distance as well as bike and walking trails. While a long walk, it is possible to walk to downtown Austin. The bungalow was a comfortable, lovely home base for our exploration of Austin and our solar eclipse experience.

Family wedding in Austin
We had such a wonderful stay at this truly private sanctuary. Located in a nice area about 2.5 miles from downtown Austin and 25 minutes from the airport. The house is fully renovated with all the comforts of home. Kristi communicated regularly - through VRBO emails and text messages. We would definitely stay here again if our travels takes us back to Austin. One suggestion: pull on the doorknob slightly when locking the unit :)

Great place in a great neighborhood!
Stayed here with my family: my parents, husband, and 1 year old son. The sleeping arrangements were perfect and had ample room for everyone and beds were very comfortable. We enjoyed coffee on the front porch in the morning. Had a few events downtown and this location is perfect - it’s close enough that the drive/Uber is easy, but is also quiet since it’s tucked away from the craziness of downtown. The host was great at communicating with us and making sure we were comfortable - there was even a bottle of wine waiting for us! Had a little bit of work to do one morning and noted there is no desk or table, but was easily able to work at the kitchen island/bar that is basically the size of a table. Thanks again and hope to stay on another Austin trip!

Austin getaway
This house was clean and suited our needs (four women getting together). There was a kitchen and living room, plus the three bedrooms. It was on the small side, but it worked for us.
