Weekend Getaway

We met up with friends from AZ this weekend and decide to stay in Zilker. This house was the perfect spot- great location/ neighborhood! It was super quiet, clean and it had everything we needed. To the bottle of rose and sweet welcome note, we felt right at home. The house was clean, comfortable and well equipped with everything we needed, including coffee, cream and sugar! The host was extremely responsive and incredibly accommodating. It’s pet friendly to boot! We will definitely be back and look forward to our next stay.

Bar Exam lodging

Our purpose for using this property was because a family member was taking the Bar Exam. Needed a quiet place. The neighborhood was extremely comfortable and very quiet. Lots of young to mid-aged families who were extremely polite. The house was very clean, well kept and comfortable. Everything was just as set out in the VRBO website. Highly recommend if you need a safe place with little to no distractions. We were 3 adults and a pet and we had plenty of space.

Excellent house in Zilker Park, Austin!

Great clean home with room for our dog. The house is in a great location and nice neighborhood. Clean house in perfect condition and comfy beds and bedding. Use a keypad for the door so don’t have to worry about a key and off street parking right in front of the house. Loved our stay here. Exactly as pictured. Highly recommend.

A beautiful home!

We booked this house since our local Austin home was getting work done on it. First, the house is immaculate with everything you could need for a stay. Plus, the added thoughtful touches of coffee, and wine were much appreciated and needed! The whole house had more than enough room for my family and had a well sized backyard. There are quite a few great restaurants in the area--favorites are Loro, El Naranjo, Radio Coffee, Vera Cruz All Natural, Patika (coffee and breakfast), Snooze, and Picnik. Reid was easy to communicate with and responded quickly. Definitely a beautiful home for a stay in Austin in one of my favorite areas in Austin.
