Seasonal Landscaping Note: Austin’s outdoor landscape naturally changes throughout the year. During the fall, trees may shed leaves quickly, so a few leaves may appear around the pool, patios, and walkways between cleanings. During the peak Texas summer heat, drought conditions and local water-use restrictions may limit watering, causing lawns and plants to look drier or less green than pictured. We do our best to maintain all outdoor areas and appreciate your understanding as we embrace the seasons and conserve water.

Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a Smart television is provided for your entertainment. Conveniences include a desk and a microwave.

The first floor apartment was clean and comfortable. Location was convenient for our visit to UT. Reserved street parking was available near the front entrance. The "West Campus" neighborhood is densely populated, but still quiet and peaceful. We enjoyed our 4-night stay. Communication with owner was excellent.
