Super great spot that worked great for our large group. Walkable to may cute coffee shops. Felt like a safe area. The bathrooms were very nice and clean. Rooms were larger than they appeared on the listing. Very happy with our stay here!
My family and I had a great time staying here for F1 weekend. Easy walk to great coffee and BBQ (other than Franlin’s). Would definitely stay here again.

Hmm - why the 4 star review? Anything I could have done better?
I stayed here with 12 other ladies for my bachelorette party and it was perfect! Everything we needed was there, there was ample space for everyone to get ready, it was walking distance to some really awesome bars, and Ubers were so easy and quick. Compared to some other properties, the price was more reasonable and the location was superior. We had an awesome time!

Wonderful house, great location & host!
We were two families with adult kids traveling to Austin over New Years to enjoy the city, the food, and music. The location was great with a wonderful coffee shop a block away. The house was spacious and well equipped for the 9 of us with room to spare. Everything was clean and access was easy. I'd recommend the house and would stay there again.

So fun!
We had such a fun time staying at Wesley's house! There were 12 girls staying here, and we had plenty of space. The beds were comfortable, and everything was very clean! It's a short cab ride to 6th St. and Rainey St. We also found some cute local spots extremely close to the house. Definitely a perfect location! Highly recommend staying here!
This house is just as advertised. Located just a short walk from 6th Street in East Austin and has all of the amenities a large group could ask for. Plenty of beds for everyone to sleep on. Wes and Corinda (co-host) were easy to get in touch with and were very accommodating. Would highly recommend this house for large groups and would definitely stay here again if we return to Austin.

Awesome house near 6th
Our group was in town for our friend's bachelor party. Wesley's house was in a great location and had more than enough room for our large group. Wesley was extremely friendly and helpful in accommodating us. Check-in/out was simple and the house was very nice and well-furnished. I would highly recommend this house if you're looking to plan your next trip to Austin. Thanks Wesley!
The house was perfect for our family visit to Austin for a wedding. The house was immaculate, the kitchen very well stocked, and the location was perfect for the wedding venue and easy access to all that Austin has to offer. We thoroughly enjoyed or stay!
thanks Wes for a wonderful stay for our group. we were especially appreciative of how well-stocked the kitchen was. we didn't need to worry about salt/pepper, olive oil, and miscellaneous spices. we had a little bit of an issue with the primary bedroom getting TOO cold at night with AC going strong but found extra blankets.
We had a great weekend filled with lots of fun activities all around Austin and this house was perfect for our size group. The location was easy to get Ubers/Lyfts to and from and the neighborhood had some shops we could order coffee and breakfast from. The mattresses were super comfortable! The homeowner was easy to communicate with and quick to respond. Would highly recommend and book again.
This house has everything you need, and it had plenty of space for our large group of girls. We appreciated how well stocked it was with odds and ends such as a garment steamer, as well as the pantry & fridge full of unopened refreshments and supplies. I recommend checking into the house before placing any grocery orders.
The house was also clean well taken care of. Wes was very responsive. I highly recommend this listing.
Big open space with all the amenities you need (coolers, beach towels, kitchen supplies and ingredients, clothes steamer). House is very clean. Big kitchen for cooking/ hanging out. Great location- 10 min ride to downtown, restaurants, and airport. Sleeps 12 in beds.
This house was perfect for our large bachelor party group. It was spacious and was within walking distance of a few great spots to eat and drink. Thanks again Wes!
Wes was an excellent host. The house was as advertised and spotless when we showed up. I would definitely recommend it for large groups who want to explore a good chunk of the city on foot.
We loved this home for our bachelorette weekend! The house was bigger than expected and very spacious for our group. The house was in a great location to do things in East Austin and downtown, and the owner of the home was very responsive with any questions before and during the stay. Would definitely stay here again when returning to the Austin area!
We had a great stay here with our group of 12. Everyone had a comfortable place to stay and there was plenty of space so we never felt on top of each other. The four bathrooms made getting ready so easy!
Wes was great at communicating and responded to anything we needed right away. I would definitely stay here again!
House was exactly as advertised and perfect for our trip! We had a 12 girl bachelorette party and there was plenty of space for fun and sleep. The indoor/outdoor common room space was the highlight. Location was excellent, quick walk to coffee/bars/restaurants and short ride to the airport. I would definitely stay here again. Thanks Wes!
This property was one of the best that I've rented and was a perfect spot for our group. Walkable to plenty of good spots and lots of space and beds for when we came home
Great open house with plenty of room for people to sleep as well as gather. Neighborhood is a little sketchy but the house itself is as advertised. Slight ant problem, but they didnt bother anyone.
This house was even better than my high expectations, is in a great location, and has a great host! We had everything we needed and more. Spacious, comfortable beds, towels, cold AC.
Thanks again for letting us stay at your place, Wes!
Great house with comfortable beds and plenty of space for a big group. Close to downtown and within walking distance to some great restaurants

About the host
Hosted by Wes Barrow
Hi I am Wesley and split my time between Austin and NYC.
I work in technology and in my free time, I enjoy traveling all over the world and seeing live music. Also love to play tennis, board games, and try out new restaurants - especially tacos, BBQ and any type of Asian food.
I've been using VRBO for years as a guest, but am excited to finally own my first home and pay back the community by hosting guests too!
Why they chose this property
I built this house in East Austin because I love the neighborhood's proximity to downtown while still being a bit more residential. All of the best restaurants, bars and coffee shops are on the east side!
What makes this property unique
Nice, relaxing patio - and a large living area that is perfect for entertaining. Also the perfect integration of indoors and outdoors.
