The property was absolutely wonderful and perfect for my time in Austin. It is so wonderful to have covered parking to keep your car cool in the shade on hot Texas days. The neighborhood is quiet and the backyard is adorable and lovely for relaxing or working remotely. The bedrooms and living room are homey and comfortable. I loved having some drinks in the fridge when I arrived and having a washer and dryer in the unit is amazing. There's P. Terry's and Whataburger a block away plus plenty of Tex-Mex food options and some late night food trucks. Easy access to I35, downtown, and superb airport access. Excellent experience and super easy check in and out. You'll love it!

Fantastic!The property is literally 10 minutes from the airport and 5 minutes from I-35 and you don't get any noise from either one.Your parking spot is under the carport and on the right directly in front of the door. There are no steps just wheel in your luggage. The large TV is situated right in front of the couch seems larger because it is close, perfect. Night time is quiet and the master bedroom is pitch black, great for sleeping. Wifi is fast.The best part are Sherry and Maggie they are great hosts. Right away I felt like they were old friends.I stayed there 2 months and I'm going there next year for over 3 months.You can't go wrong staying here.

Comfortable and convenient

My husband and I stayed here with our pup for a month upon moving back to Austin while house hunting. It was extremely comfortable, and convenient to our favorite neighborhoods of the city. The kitchen was well stocked so it was like staying in a home. Plenty of space, and a very nice deck and yard!

Amazing Stay

I stayed here for the summer while working in Austin and couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. The owners are amazing and had the fridge full of food and drinks! They were super quick with responding and helping with anything I needed! They even looked out for my packages when I wasn’t there to get them.

Stay here if you’re visiting Austin! I booked Maggie and Sherry’s place for a month and they made me feel so welcomed! The house has everything you could possibly need. It’s cozy and clean and in such a great location. And the backyard was a little piece of heaven for my dog! I’ll be visiting Austin again later this year and will definitely try to book again here!

Austin visit

Maggie and Sherry were very good hosts, responsive to any questions we had. We were comfortable and felt safe with covered and lighted parking. The location was very handy to Lady Bird Lake and downtown Austin. While the duplex is older, we had what we needed, including a quiet covered deck in back to read and watch the birds and squirrels. We also took walks in the neighborhood and felt safe. We would stay there again

It's all been EASY! Location is central and easy to get anywhere. The facilities are clean, comes stocked with basics and is quiet - I know, I have dogs with me who are more than happy to bark at every noise - yet they have been quiet themselves. Well worth the cost and efforts.

Not a good experience with Maggie.

I will make sure if you bring dogs to have her approved it. I had requested bringing two dogs and at the property she said I did not. I told her that I had it in writing. Also, loud music from neighbors until 5:30 am on the weekends. We did not have any sleep. We left 3 days earlier than expected. I never write bad reviews but this time I had no choice.
