Great house for a group trip.We had plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms, and room for everyone to spread out. The backyard is huge, and the neighbor's chickens were a fun bonus. The decor is a little dated, but the house was clean and the beds were comfortable. For a big group, the space is hard to beat.One tip: The street is a bit tricky to find, and a few of our rideshare drivers got lost. Setting pickup and drop-off at the music school a few houses down worked every time.Small quirk, great stay. We'd happily book again.
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 offered a peaceful retreat while still being close to everything you needed. We’d love to host you again on a future visit.
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 spot for a bachelor party. Some uber drivers had difficulty with finding the property. We had a great time and I would definitely stay here again

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!

The overall space of the house was great for seven people. The outside of the house was awful. The yard wasn’t mowed and the weeds were as high as my knees. There was a huge dead branch laying in the backyard. The area where you go out to the pool was dirty and there were no chairs to sit on once you got out of the pool. The trash in the cans outside was overflowing and they never came to collect it the whole week we were there. There was food in the sink and a dirty sponge laying there. The rugs in the hallway and bedrooms were filthy and stained. It was very embarrassing for the work/friends we had staying with us from the Netherlands. The only good thing was the quick response from the rental company about the complaints although it didn’t do any good with the trash pick up. I would never stay here again unless I knew that the above mentioned things were fixed.
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.

Thank you for staying with us — we’re glad the space worked well for two families and that you found the seating, kitchen, beds/linens, and laundry amenities helpful. I’m sorry the home could use some TLC and that the location felt a bit odd; we’ll review your feedback with our team as we plan updates. 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.

Thank you Meagan for your 5 Star Review. Glad to hear you enjoyed the home. We would love to host you again!!
We stayed here for a large family gathering. There were plenty of bathrooms and comfortable bedrooms for our group. The kitchen was also nice for accommodating the group. The kids had fun swimming in the pool, and there was a pleasant covered patio to sit on. We had a great time!
