The property (which we had rented previously) has not been held to the stated standard. Items missing (hair dryer, paper towels, dish towels, hand towels in bath) and the keypad lock didn’t work. We left a day early because of this. Very disappointed.

Quaint Perfection

By far one of the best rentals we’ve ever stayed at! Everything was exactly as pictured, in good condition and very clean - those are the little things that can make or break a stay. Every little detail has been thought about, which was great considering we stayed for 7 nights. Great neighborhood too. Overall, 10/10 and would definitely stay here again.

Nice but pricey!

Our stay was great! Communication was excellent leading up to our trip. The bungalow was very clean and just as pictured. The backyard could use some TLC but was private and enjoyable. We were there for ACL. It was a pleasant 18 min. walk. My only disappointment was the cost. Even for an event weekend the price seemed extremely high for a 1 bedroom/1 bath.

Absolutely wonderful!

So here’s my dilemma… I really don’t want to give this location an overwhelmingly, glowing review because then it’s going to be booked all the time. And it absolutely should be; this rental is better than described, in a lovely neighborhood and perfect if traveling with pets. The communication with the property manager is better than I’ve ever had at a VRBO and cannot say enough kind words about her. If you’re in Austin, I would highly recommend this location.

Awful experience

Wasn’t the cleanest place. Shower had mold. Shower curtain had mildew. Horrible mosquitoes in the backyard. Someone entered the backyard without our knowledge and the host wouldn't confirm or deny who it was. They left the gate open and we had two dogs. People were parked in our designated spots and I tried to ask the host where to park and he said to park on the street (no spots on front of the place to park in the street) and write a note on the cars parked in our spots. We also arrived to no check in or check out notes. We saw the trash bin outside was full with flies and ants all over it. I asked the host when the trash came. He didn't respond, so my husband just took it to the curb. We asked about their recycling bin and didn't get an answer. Horrible.

Response from VrboOwner on 15 Jul 2025
We're genuinely sorry to hear this guest did not enjoy their stay. However, it's important to clarify that this review was left after we declined their request for a refund for unused nights when they chose to leave early, outside of our clearly stated cancellation policy. While we respect every guest's opinion, this review contains several inaccurate and exaggerated claims that do not reflect the experience of the many guests who have stayed with us. Cleanliness and communication are top priorities for us, and we consistently receive positive feedback on both. We encourage future guests to read our many other reviews that reflect the true guest experience at our property. As with any home in this area, mosquitoes can be present outdoors, especially in warmer months, but we do take regular pest control measures. We did investigate the backyard concern thoroughly and found no evidence of any unauthorized entry. Our team responded to every message promptly and provided parking guidance per the listing details. We understand things can sometimes feel frustrating during travel, but we strive to handle all situations professionally and fairly. We hope future guests will take the time to read our other reviews to get a full and accurate picture of the quality and care we put into hosting
