Long Weekend to visit family

Property is very nicely kept and has everything you need to take advantage of its many amenities. Nice location close to downtown and "old" Austin and UT. The only short coming is there is limited closet space for hangings clothes. We would definitely stay at this location again. Property manager is very responsive.

Perfect family reunion weekend.

Great little house, walkable to basics shops and restaurants but close to just about everything in Austin. Held 15 for dinners easily inside and outside, fun amenities, well appointed. Hallway bedroom gets a lot of noise but the upstairs suite has a kitchenette and great as a separate space for a family with kids.

We were at Chris’ property for my bachelor party and it was the perfect house and location for a big group. Tons to do in the neighborhood, but it was also a blast hanging out in the amazing backyard. Chris was great at communicating. Overall a 10/10 experience.

5 star stay :) Amazing property! A place of serenity for a family getaway. The tennis table was a huge hit! Fun games & pool - the full package. Close to central and downtown for activities. Plenty of space, privacy and well stocked items. Nice neighborhood. It is Austin’s hidden treasure - We would stay again!

Great stay for a Bach place!

Had an amazing time in Austin. Checkin was easy, the place had plenty of towels and even a snack basket for our arrival! There were 11 of us and we all slept comfortably and had plenty of room. Also easy to get downtown and around to the various areas. Thank you again!

Great Spot near UT

This location is ideal for small or even larger groups. Plenty of bedrooms and space. The highlight is definitely the backyard. Perfect for entertaining with a pool, table tennis, cornhole, a putting green, and more. The location is great to walk to restaurants and bars near the school and not too far from Congress. Would definitely stay there again.

Hook 'em!

We had such a great weekend staying at Chris' property. Everything was in great shape when we arrived, the house and backyard is such an amazing set up for a big group. I would recommend this 11/10 times if you are visiting with a big group, especially if you're going to a Longhorns football game due to the proximity to UT. Chris was great host, very communicative, and overall an amazing trip.

Great house

I stayed at this property with 11 other people for a bachelor party and it was perfect. It comfortably slept our whole crew, and the house was clean and exactly as described. The location was convenient and easy, and the backyard was awesome for a bit group. Especially the pool and golf hole! Would highly recommend.

Really great house!

House was lovely. Everything was very clean. Lots of beds to accommodate all the guests. Super quiet neighborhood despite being just a few blocks from Guadalupe (the main drag for college kids). Very close to university and downtown. Very convenient for Austin City Limits festival. Just wish we had had more time to enjoy the pool, ping pong table, and relaxing back patio.

Great for bachelor party

We had about 13 people staying here for a bachelor party. The backyard was really nice, although the pool was a bit smaller than it looks in the pictures. The house was clean and had enough beds for everybody. Its a short uber ride to the main streets which is convenient. Overall we had a great time.
