In addition, guests can gather around the modern gas fire pit located near the front house to enjoy a glass or bottle of wine or some S'more.

WORTH THE MONEY
Everything about this place was amazing. The house was a really cool set up with plenty of room for our group. You are minutes away from the best restaurants and bars. The property manager here was also very helpful, he made the booking, check-in and check-out very easy and convenient for our big group. I would give a 10/10 recommendation on this place and will go back next time we visit Austin

A perfect house for a large group!
This property was able to house multiple adults. Trung was the most attentive host and checked in to make sure everything was going properly. He even left us some beverages and snacks for when we arrived which we all appreciated so much. I would highly recommend this property to any kind of group. We would all return to this property if we come back to Austin!

A perfect 5 star stay in Austin!
Our stay at this VRBO in Austin was simply outstanding, deserving nothing less than a five-star rating. From the moment we stepped into the home, we were welcomed by a clean and inviting space that exceeded our expectations. The house was impressively large, providing ample room for us and our friends, and the interiors were comfortable and homely. Equally pleasing was the outdoor area that was perfect for relaxing and unwinding. The cowboy pool was a major highlight and greatly appreciated in the Texas heat! This house was not only wonderful in its physical offerings but also shined in terms of its location - situated right across from the Grove and Central Austin, it allowed us to conveniently explore the city. The host of this property deserves special mention. Her responsiveness and communication were top-notch, making our stay that much easier and more enjoyable. The home was well-stocked with all the amenities we needed, both inside and out, thanks to her attention to detail. In conclusion, we cannot recommend this VRBO enough. It added a significant amount of enjoyment to our weekend trip, and we are already planning to return on future trips to Austin. So, if you're looking for a comfortable, well-located, and meticulously maintained VRBO with an excellent host, look no further!

Great space for a group
We stayed here for my sister’s bachelorette and it was absolutely perfect! Great for a group! The house was so clean and it had everything you needed! The outdoor space is just awesome! Nice pool, great outdoor games and even yoga mats! Trung was an awesome host! Great communication and very quick to respond if we needed something or had any questions. Last, it’s less than 10 minutes away from downtown and located in a great neighborhood. Highly recommend!

Great property for a football weekend
The house and property were fantastic. Trung was very helpful with everything and communicating with her was easy. The house had all the amenities we needed and has plenty of space for a group. The tank pool was a great way to cool off in the Texas heat! Great location close to UT and downtown for a football weekend. Would definitely stay again.

Host profile image
I'm a father, a husband, and I love coffee, photography, and traveling. I have called Austin, TX home since 2007. Austin is one of the best cities in the world due to many reasons: SXSW, ACL, F1, abundance of outdoor activities and natural wonders, FC Austin, some of the best breweries and vineyards (the hill country), local shops and farmers markets, foodies, UT, and most importantly, the people here. Welcome to Austin, TX and hopefully see you soon!
