Great house, great location, great hosting
Seamless experience - we had a family wedding with so many moving parts but this home base was perfect. So many things we didn’t know we needed were available and accessible - the set up was so nice and comfortable - the swim spa was a huge hit and communications were easy. Thank you so much for making a complicated and special weekend so much easier!!

Great for families, bachelor/bachelorette parties.
The hosts were extremely helpful and attentive to every detail. The property was perfect, lots of beds, giant hot tub, and beautiful kitchen to cook. Great location and a wonderful neighborhood. There is a little Mexican place down the road to eat that was also a great little gem 10/10

Great house for a girls trip!
The house was beautiful, great Mexican spot right down the road. Walking distance to SoCo and only 10 minute Uber to downtown! Perfect stay for a larger group. And the hot tub! Maria was an absolute dream of a host and the house was nothing short of perfect for our Bach Bash weekend

Great location and great space for large group!
The hosts were amazing to work with from lead-up to stay and during stay. They are quick to respond and made us feel welcomed even if it was via email/text. Everything was fully furnished and the personal touches were great. Instructions were also crystal clear! Cannot thank them enough for creating a space where not only we can rest but also work out of. Such a great find! Such a great stay and will rebook in future next time our team is back in Austin.

Lovely home & wonderful hosts
Maria & Joe were fabulous hosts. They messaged frequently and offered a ton of information about the local area. They were communicative about the check in process and even responded promptly when I asked a question during our stay. The house is really beautiful and spacious. We had a large group of family in town for a wedding, 11 people, and everyone fit easily and slept comfortably. The home was located in a residential area, but also very close to everywhere we needed to be. South Congress street is walking distance which had a ton of great shops and restaurants. Would definitely stay here again!

Immaculate and well-equipped property
Our overall experience was excellent. The house is spacious and very well maintained. The kitchen was fully equipped, the bedroom-bath layouts worked great. Porch, pool, and outdoor areas were as advertised, but 105 degree heat limited use. Owners are very responsive. Universal thumbs-up from all my family. Plus location worked very well.

Maria is the best!
We celebrated a bachelorette party in Maria’s home and I cannot express how amazing our trip was! It was the perfect location to downtown and a quick ride to and from the airport. Maria was nice enough to let us drop out bags off early since we landed prior to check in time. The hot tub and sauna were a perfect touch to our relaxation that we all desperately needed. We had plenty of room for all 12 of us girls to sleep comfortably! Thank you for your hospitality Maria, we will definitely be back for another visit!

An amazing first time Austin experience
What a beautiful and amazing home! We booked this home last minute, after having a horrible experience with a certain BnB, we had to leave. The check-in process went amazingly smooth, the home was spotless and the owners are wonderful people. This home is in a perfect location! From here we visited Austin, Fredericksburg, Bryant, San Antonio and a several other smaller cities that were in close proximity. I would not hesitate to stay here again.
