Great location! Easy to get to, but tucked back in a nice quiet neighborhood. Stayed here to go to ACL. You could get there as a long walk or a short walk rideshare combo.House was in great shape. Had everything we needed. Nice patio to relax and hang out on and pool if you wanna cool off. Tons of beds. Great layout for big groups.
It's a cool spot. The pool and the backyard are really nice, and there's plenty of neat stuff in the house. Pretty nice location as well, close to town but really spacious. My buddies and I had a really fun time.
The home was very clean and plenty of amenities, it certainly appeals to a family getaway! The host was very helpful and accessible! I would certainly book this property again!
We had a good stay - the pool is fantastic and has natural tree cover and shade. Highly recommend if you are looking to spend time outside in the hot Austin summer.
Rental is also close to downtown which is an added bonus.
This house was perfect for our weekend birthday celebration! It had everything we and our party guests needed. The pool was lovely and shaded, the kitchen had everything we needed, and the living room was perfect for karaoke. We’d stay here again for our next group get-together!
We had a great stay here, with our group of 8 guys. The property is perfect for a getaway, offering a lot of space with all it's rooms which allowed everyone to sleep comfortably. We thoroughly enjoyed the backyard especially the pool. The place was clean, well-maintained, and had everything we needed. Eugene made the process of checking in and out a breeze and was quick to reply with any questions we had. Highly recommend this oasis for a fun-filled time in Austin.
We rented this property for our bachelor/bachelorette party, and it worked perfectly for us. 10 people stayed over, and we had about 20 people hanging out. Quiet, pretty neighborhood in a good location.
Eugene is an excellent, attentive host, and he makes everything easy for you. Thanks, Eugene!
This home was perfect for a college reunion. The pool was shaded so the heat was never an issue even in the middle of summer. Overall, I would definitely recommend to others.
My friends and I stayed at this property to view the eclipse in Austin. It is conveniently located to downtown in a peaceful suburb. Plenty of food options close by. The house was very well stocked with necessities and extra items which lend to having a good time with friends. Eugene was great at communicating and really wanted us to feel comfortable at his property. We didn't have tons of people stay, but there were so many areas where people could sleep or just hang out. We recommend this property and would definitely stay again if in the Austin area!
We had 10 women gather here to celebrate a bachelorette party, and I don't think we could have chosen a better spot. Eugene was one of the best hosts I've come into contact with, and went out of his way to check in daily on anything we could need. The house was fully stocked with fun bachelorette party supplies (and some snacks and coffee) and we made full use of the shaded pool area and outdoor dining space even in the heat of August!
Our family had an amazing stay in Eugene’s house! He communicated well and was quick to respond to messages. He went above and beyond our expectations when he picked up and delivered a rice cooker for us to use.
The house is spacious and well laid out with a lot of different sleeping areas and sitting areas. The long dining table was great for seating all 12 of us. My boys also enjoyed the tent, hammock, swimming pool, and play set in the backyard.
We would definitely stay again!
Threw a birthday party here for almost 30 people it went great. Eugene made it easy to focus on our event with a very friendly checkout times and policies, and fast communication.
The yard and pool are mostly shaded, which made it surprisingly comfortable to be outside during sunny 100F weather.
There are quite a few places to sit inside and out, though we brought a few more chairs for the pool. Eugene's home included convenient towels, coolers, outdoor lighting, indoor speakers, and some serverware.
The bedrooms are all located upstairs and isolated from the main living area so people staying the night could store their belongings and have a private space away from other guests.
The house was perfect for our group. The yard is great for hanging out around the house and the house is located very close to amenities. The host was great and checked in throughout the weekend to ensure we had everything we needed. Would definitely stay here again!
Exceptional property, accommodations were fantastic, close to Austin, quiet neighborhood, property manager was easy to work with and very helpful with information about the local area. Would recommend this place to anyone as there is plenty of room for a group and lots to do on the property.
The property was exactly what we were looking for, we enjoyed the pool and the backyard during the day and the city at night. The host was great, gave us recommendations and made the process really smooth for our group.
Eugene is the most hospitable host. He was consistently checking on our needs and made sure our stay was enjoyable/comfortable. I recommend staying here.
Eugene is a great host. He was extremely friendly and made sure we had everything as needed at the Place.
The place was very clean and is close to City with a quick uber ride. The neighborhood is really nice with some grocery stores and breakfast places close by. Definitely recommend to stay if you're considering a trip to Austin.
Great place to stay, and great place to celebrarte
We are local, but had family staying in town for the weekend to help celebrate my birthday, and then opened up the home to friends for a party on Sunday afternoon. The property worked very well for us, both as a place to stay and a place to celebrate. We enjoyed the pool, the game room, and had a cook-out on the deck for around 30 people. The host was super-responsive, and went out of his way to support our stay.
