Mostly great
The place is nice, easy to find, and in a good location that met our needs. The only knocks are 1. We turned on the ice maker only to find out the next day that it leaks. Would have been nice to know that was why it was shut off 2 house needs some minor repairs 3. Listing and the ‘book’ state there are smart TV’s in each room. This is not the case. Not a problem but don’t say it if it’s not true. Would stay again

ACL Weekend Stay
This property and its management are incredible. The online description and pictures were accurate, and any questions that I had before our stay were answered with detail by the property management. I would like to give a special thank you to DeAnna. Prior to our stay, she called and gave advice and recommendations for our ACL plans. She even had hats, water bottles, sunscreen, and other goodies set up for us at the house upon arrival. The house was close enough to ride scooters or walk to Zilker Park for ACL - 10/10!
