Mange setter pris på Virginias vennlige og raske kommunikasjon og smidig innsjekking. Rommene er romslige og komfortable med eklektisk, vintage interiør og flere samlingsområder, men flere anmeldelser nevner treg eller upålitelig Wi-Fi og særegenheter som begrensede stikkontakter og lys brytere med snor. Renholdet blir generelt rost, men noen gjester nevner støv eller slitasje relatert til alderen. Et godt valg for grupper og familier som verdsetter karakter og plass fremfor moderne perfeksjon.

We loved the atmosphere and the size of the large house. Loved all the nooks and crannies and places to settle down for cozy conversations. We all loved the pool, especially the grands. It was very clean and well-maintained. The host, Virginia, was wonderful to communicate with and very responsive. She was part of the reason we loved staying there.

Loved the house; Virginia is a great host, excellent communicator. The property is 100% as advertised, there are great pieces of vintage furniture and art/relics in the house. There is more than enough space and privacy. We enjoyed nights down by the pool and several days in it. Worth a stay if you are in the area, close to downtown, beats any hotel options.

We had a ball on our short trip to Austin. It was HOT... our little Washingtonian bodies thought we might die...HOW do people live here??? But that pool was incredible, the house was cozy and stayed cool and we had such a great time exploring the city! The location could not be better, close to downtown but felt incredibly private. Checking in and out was a breeze and we had everything at the house that we needed. Instructions were clear and communication was great. The beds were SO comfortable...especially that red room :) We will be back...but perhaps not in August next time...

We had a great time at this house. It’s on a very private, woodsy hill with a lovely pool and lots of historic charm, and it’s still very close to all the Austin attractions. The owner is very friendly and accommodating. We would love to return sometime!

The property was charming but more rustic then anticipated. Slow internet, lack of outlets and switches. Most overhead lights/ fans used pull cords, which in itself is fine but we are rather short. Plumbing was all two handled so hard to adjust temperature. The beds were comfortable, the sheets were nice and soft, the towels were fluffy and absorbent, there was good quality shampoos and conditioners but we didn't find a hair dryer. The pool was enjoyable but the weather was not good during our stay so we didn't use it as much as we would have liked. Concrete around the pool has broken so its important to watch the kids playing as it could be a hazard. Our hostess, Virginia, was available on site if needed and left us a number to contact her with any problems. Overall we had an enjoyable stay with our family.

The house is older and decorated very eclectic. Lots of room and many various areas for visiting or relaxing. A little funky for some, but definitely a great location for all things austin. Very secluded atmosphere for in the city. A few glitches with internet and water, but owner is very responsive. Property could use a little love, but all in all it suited our needs!

The clutter and ubiquitous crucifixes everywhere are off-putting. It's got to be hard to clean with so much stuff so it's not surprising that it's on the dusty side. Having said that, the owner seems nice and the location is fantastic. The living room has plenty of seating for family members and there is a high chair available. The kitchen is well supplied. We never used the pool, but it was clean and looked like the pictures.

The host was wonderful & very helpful! We had a few issues with the electricity & heat, but she was prompt in handling them. The house & location are great - we were able to have the whole family stay together over Thanksgiving. As advertised, the house is very old and a bit creepy - but in a cool way. Like, I got the impression that there were probably ghosts there - but they were cool Old Austin ghosts, chillin having a good time.

Quiet house on a heavily wooded lot with a refreshing pool. Unique older house with a lot of character. Clean and everything in good working order for an older home. Close to downtown. We've stayed here multiple times and we'll be back again. back.

We had a ball on our short trip to Austin. It was HOT... our little Washingtonian bodies thought we might die...HOW do people live here??? But that pool was incredible, the house was cozy and stayed cool and we had such a great time exploring the city! The location could not be better, close to downtown but felt incredibly private. Checking in and out was a breeze and we had everything at the house that we needed. Instructions were clear and communication was great. The beds were SO comfortable...especially that red room :) We will be back...but perhaps not in August next time...

Beautiful vintage house with tons of space. Great location close to the campus. Book lovers could spend their vacation inside.

We had a great time at this house. It’s on a very private, woodsy hill with a lovely pool and lots of historic charm, and it’s still very close to all the Austin attractions. The owner is very friendly and accommodating. We would love to return sometime!

We were a family of seven that came to Austin for the first time to celebrate a birthday weekend. We had plenty of room to spread out during the day and close enough that anything we wanted was less than 10-20 minutes away. Plenty of ride share options made getting around a breeze. Most of our time had us in downtown Austin but there is plenty to see wherever you go. Go check out a sunset at the Oasis in Lake Travis. We didn’t realize SXSW was going on during our trip so that made things even more special. Virginia’s communication was great. We enjoyed the stay and would consider this location again!

We came to Austin to visit our daughter and explore a new city. We sought a property that embraced how eclectic Austin is and Virginia’s home did exactly that! We had everything we needed, Virginia was so easy to communicate with and the location was an easy ride to all of our destinations.

We appreciated the opportunity to visit Ausitn, TX and have a cool place to return to after a full days activities. Plenty of space, wish teh weather would have allowed for a dip in the pool. Close to downtown and very quiet. The owners could not have been nicer and their communications were promptly asnswered. Make sure Uber drivers know to look for the red mailbox!

The clutter and ubiquitous crucifixes everywhere are off-putting. It's got to be hard to clean with so much stuff so it's not surprising that it's on the dusty side. Having said that, the owner seems nice and the location is fantastic. The living room has plenty of seating for family members and there is a high chair available. The kitchen is well supplied. We never used the pool, but it was clean and looked like the pictures.

We had the best day of our trip hanging out at the pool with our family.Our host was lovely and took great care of us.Parking-be aware that parking is very limited and the driveway is very narrow and steep in one place with low overhanging branches. I should have asked more questions about parking. We were traveling with a van and a small trailer that we ended up parking off-site and it worked out fine with a little shuttling back and forth.Hope to book again for a girls trip and spend more time exploring Austin and Round Top.

The property was quite spacious and is in a beautiful setting. We had 9 guests staying in the home and we were all quite comfortable. All enjoyed our time spent by the beautiful pool, surrounded by beautiful trees, and in a very private setting. Our host was lovely.

Everything about the home and property were exactly what we hoped for. Virginia is a warm, friendly host that pays attention to every detail......including having the home decorated for Christmas! Last but not least, the location is perfect for visiting everything Austin has to offer.
