Cute, clean, comfortable, well-equipped house. Walking distance to downtown. Big hot tub and amazing porches. The top porch provides beautiful view of Austin sky-line. Hungry? No problem, food trucks just across the lane. My family truly enjoyed our stay. Extra bonus, the host is very accommodating, friendly and communicative. Can't wait for my next stay!

The spot was perfect for our small work retreat. We had great spaces to work and collaborate together from the kitchen island to the second story and rooftop decks. Then we were able to unwind in the pool in the evening. The proximity to the delicious food tricks was a nice bonus. Our host was incredibly accommodating and made sure we were good the whole way through. She was incredibly responsive and left detailed instructions from booking to checking out. Great experience.

Thank you Christian for taking your precious time to write me a five star review!! I am so glad that you had found the home prefect for what you needed. It’s an amazing experience to hosting you. Please come back.
Hot tub is huge, well maintained, and so easy to use. Great amenity.Location is fantastic. Easy walk to DKR Memorial or Disch-Faulk and other UT facilities. And the food truck plaza across the alley is a huge bonus. Tacos at Cuantos Tacos or Ensanada are excellent. And can't say enough about the outside decks. Nice places to hand with friends and the rooftop has great views of downtown. And, if you don't want to wait in line at Franklins, you can preorder and the BBQ will still be hot when you get back because it's only a couple of blocks to transport.
