This house was very quaint and immaculately maintained, and located in a cute quiet neighborhood in West Campus. We loved all the amenities, including the fenced in backyard and cozy patio, as well as free parking. Within walking distance of many restaurants and campus activities. The beds were extremely comfortable as well. We hope to stay here again sometime!

Home away from home

This VRBO felt like staying at a friend's house while they were away. It was comfortable and felt like a home (books, porch swing, plants, etc.) The location was convenient and the beds were comfortable.

About the host

Hosted by Joan E Winter

Host profile image

I am a teacher who loves to travel. Because I have enjoyed coming back to a home (rather than a hotel) when exploring in a new place, I am pleased to offer mine! I grew up in Houston but moved to Austin for graduate school and stayed - who wouldn't? Easy access to nature, beautiful art, live music, great restaurants and, of course, the incomparable Barton Springs. I love this town!

Why they chose this property

I chose this property because of its superb central location to both UT, parks and downtown and because it has character and coziness - two features I most appreciate in a place and in a person.
