Our stay at Mariposa was magical to my husband and I. Everything was provided to accommodate your needs as soon as you walk into the inviting, cozy home away from home. On-site washer and dryer are an added bonus that we were thankful for. The house is clean and the cleaning crew was amazing. Any questions we asked were answered quickly. The location was central for our needs. Honestly I didn’t want to leave. I highly recommend Lodge Well.

Great location for family of 4

Excellent location and value. As a family of four we were perfectly happy with the Mariposa. Clean and description as accurate. Large bedrooms and it was so nice to have a washer and dryer as we are an active family. Close to everything. Quiet street and communication was great as well.

Fabulous location and apartment

We had a fabulous time in Travis Heights. We stayed for 6 weeks. The location of this house is perfect. It is very walkable to many places including South Congress, (10-15 minutes) the hike and bike (15 minutes), and even over to the downtown (30-40 minutes) or (30-40 minutes) Rainey street. We loved being very close to the action but also having the quiet of the Travis heights neighborhood. The apartment is very comfortable, well appointed, and has everything we needed. Our hosts were super responsive whenever we had questions. We would love to come back to Austin and stay here again.

Quiet stay in quality unit convenient to downtown

We (my wife and I and our adult kids) flew to Austin from Ottawa, Canada in April to see the eclipse. The unit and the stay were perfect. Quiet: although there were guests with children in the other side of the duplex during our stay, we didn't hear a thing. Our place was attractive and nicely equipped for our needs. Comfy beds, good living space, cool AC, and covered parking. Lounge area in the large back yard that we took advantage of to sun. The unit was in a single family residential neighbourhood, but had close and convenient access to I-35 and Downtown as well as to to the airport. The host suggested local walking and driving attractions including the quirky Whip-In, with 70 beers on tap and yummy curry / Indian menu, which was a 4-minute walk from the unit. One question/feedback to host was responded to within a few minutes. This is what a VRBO experience should be about: quality property, no surprises, attentive host, and value for money. As a side note, although most of TX was under cloud on eclipse day, we were also incredibly lucky to see an unobstructed entire eclipse totality of more than four minutes in Llano TX, about 60 miles away. *Icing on the cake.*

Great Location

Great location and clean property! The property was just what we were looking for. It was clean and well stocked and the location is in a quiet, great neighborhood but central enough to get around easily. Management team was very responsive to our one issue with the Wi-Fi and resolved the problem quickly.

Convenience in ATX

This cute little house was great for our short stay in Austin. We came in for the F1 race so we were not at the house very much. It was perfect for our trip. Would book again, just with not so many people and one shower.

Nice spot, great location

We had a very comfortable stay. The pictures are accurate. The place is clean and a good value. It has not had a full renovation like many older places, so no fancy appliances, counter tops, etc. not a problem for us. My only note is the kitchen is very limited in cooking utensils (please buy a vegetable peeler). I can only guess most guests do not cook taking advantage of the awesome foodie scene which right now is understandably limited.
