A great house for large groups! The kitchen was well equipped. We definitely enjoyed the outdoor patio and pool. A couple of the duvet covers were stained (food, blood) and should be replaced. We had an issue with one of the master bedroom bath faucets not working but there were enough other bathrooms that it didn't matter for us.
Great place to stay. Away from all the hustle and bustle of the city, but yet close to everything

Thank you for the great review. Glad the property worked well for your bachelor party and that you had a great time. Sorry some Uber drivers had difficulty finding the house — we appreciate the feedback and will work on clearer directions and signage for future guests. We’d love to host you again on a future visit to Austin.
The only thing that we couldn’t figure out were the lights downstairs- none of the switches worked. Everything else was amazing and so spacious! Excellent for our Bachelorette trip!
Great space for 2 families to stay. Lots of great seating and enough room at both tables, good kitchen.Place could use some TLC and updating, but the beds/beding were clean and comfortable. More than enough towels and use of washer and dryer.Response from the host was immediate and very pleasant.Location was a little strange but close to everything we needed.

We appreciate the note about our quick, pleasant response and would love to host you again.
Great home with plenty of space for our extended family gathering. All essentials provided as noted in description. Would definitely recommend for those needing a large space for family. Also only 20 min from airport and downtown.

Cheers to you Lindzey. Hosting you was a delight! Thank you for choosing us & leaving the property in top-notch condition, we appreciate guests like you. Please return and be sure to check out our other locations.
This home was everything as listed. Plenty of space for the families and a large gathering area with the dining room and living room. The downstairs area was very nice for the kids to hang out and play. Because of the weather change (summer to fall) the water was a little too cold for the kids to get in. The pool looked very inviting anyway and the large backyard was fun. Hopefully the HWY 290 construction will be completed soon.

Thank you for sharing such a thoughtful review. We’re glad the home delivered exactly what you needed, from the spacious gathering areas to the downstairs hangout spot for the kids, and that the backyard made the stay enjoyable even with the cooler water. We appreciate your note on the nearby construction and hope it wraps up soon for an even smoother experience next time. We’d love to welcome you back whenever you’re ready to return!
I booked this for a friend trip, and it was absolutely perfect!! The home was super spacious, and everyone was able to have ample privacy. The pool was great fun, the air condition worked great, and all appliances were perfect. I can’t recommend this place enough for a large group!
