Great location - walking distance to some great restaurants and to Zilker Park. It was wonderful to sit outside and relax by the pool, added bonus warm weather in December! Thank you for hosting.

We had family in town and put them up in this home, as it was close to our house. The home was clean and the pool was great. We enjoyed the 'green egg' and hanging out under the carport playing ping-pong.

Had a great weekend in Austin. The home was decorated nicely, very clean, well-stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, and of course the POOL - we loved it! iTrip Vacations was great, offered us an early check-in, left us a nice welcome-gift and even let us check out a few hours late. It was a great weekend in a great home.

We loved the property,and the location. My bed and bedding were super comfortable. The kitchen and three bathrooms were perfect for the size of our group. The place felt just like being at home, and I would certainly stay here again when visiting Austin in the future.

Clean, comfortable home with a unique layout - the swimming pool is in the front yard (privacy fence, so you aren't 'exposed'). Lots of cool decorations throughout the house - tastefully decorated. Beds were comfortable and the kitchen had everything that we needed (could have used a bit more fridge space, but we made due). Loved the location and would definitely stay here again.

Chose this home because it had a pool and was close to the family we were in town visiting. Loved the house - beds were comfortable, house was clean, plenty of room for our group, the yard was great and loved the pool! Had we spent more time at the house, we definitely would have made use of the Green Egg, but we had a lot on our agenda, and not much time so we will definitely be back.

Had a wonderful time catching up with old friends, and the home was perfect! Loved the pool, home was comfortable, clean, tastefully decorated, and kitchen was fully-stocked with all that we needed. Location was great - very close to Zilker Park, Barton Springs, and DT Austin. Management was great - offered early check-in, left a very nice welcome basket with wine, sparkling water, fruit and pastries - very nice touch.

We chose this house because it was super convenient (an easy walk to Zilker for ACL), had a good number of bedrooms and bathrooms for our group (3BR/2.5 BA), and because it had a pool. While it was definitely convenient to ACL, we think there were a number of issues that made it difficult to feel fully comfortable and relaxed in the space and, in the end made us feel it wasn't worth what we paid. None of these issues on its own warranted reaching out to the property management team for emergency help, so we're sharing our thoughts in hopes that it helps the owners better prepare for their next guests. The house just didn't feel clean. The fans all had a coating of dust on them (not great for folks with allergies), there were dust bunnies on the floors and ceilings (not to mention stains on the ceiling in the middle bedroom), and the beds didn't feel clean (e.g., the quilt on the middle room bed was stained and in the master, the mattress wasn't pushed up against the headboard and you could see all kinds of dirt and hair in the space in between). There was enough visible dirt to make us feel like the whole place hadn't been thoroughly cleaned in a while. Before checking in, we received a note explaining, among other things, that the toilet in the master bathroom was"persnickety." It was not "persnickety", it was broken. Persnickety implies that it's infrequent, but we had to use the work around we were given (which involved sticking your hand in the tank) every single time. In addition, the ice maker didn't work, the overhead light in the middle bedroom didn't work, there were lamps in the bedrooms that didn't work, one of the bathroom doors in the Jack and Jill bathroom wouldn't fully close (which is a little awkward when you have people staying in both rooms), the lock on the door of the half bath was broken, the doors to the patio would stick and were super hard to open/close (and lock), and the front keypad lock only worked intermittently (and usually only when you pulled and held the door tightly). These things are frustrating when they happen in your own home, but when you're paying a good amount of money to rent a vacation space, you don't expect to run into these issues (at least not this many). We were provided a "starter kit" for our stay. It was unclear to us why things like an extra roll or two of toilet paper were not included (the rolls that were included were not full rolls and ran out in record time). It's a small cost and would be super useful to renters who don't want to spend their vacation shopping for household goods, not to mention comparable to other rentals at a similar price point. In addition to the issues listed above, there are a number of things that we thought could improve your guests' experience. First, think about providing speakers that renters can use (or an aux cord so they can connect to the speakers that are already there). Second, we understand that the house is owner occupied, but there was no room in the freezer and the refrigerator was filled with condiments that without knowing their age or condition we didn't feel comfortable using. Seeing that a previous guest also noted this on VRBO, it might make sense to get a mini fridge for the garage and store the owners' food items there when they have guests. Third, providing hotel room staples (i.e., hairdryer, iron, etc) would also help make life easier for guests when traveling. Finally, having some sort of house manual would also help people better understand how to navigate the home (we had difficulty running the washing machine and weren't sure if there was a trick to it. Also, the dishwasher is connected to a light switch, but we didn't realize that at first and couldn't figure out how to get it started). We really hope that our feedback is helpful. It's not meant to be nit-picky. The house has the potential to be a great vacation rental and we wanted to provide honest feedback to help the owners get there.

Hi Renee, We appreciate you taking the time to leave this thorough review and we hope you enjoyed your stay in ATX despite the challenges you appear to have faced. We wish you would have contacted us during your stay, as we would have had someone out to address all of your concerns on day 1! Our goal is to deliver a stress-free guest experience and we would have certainly taken care of any issues that were present. That said, we do appreciate the feedback and will share all of this with the owners. One of the challenges to having a home that is owner-occupied part of the time, is that there are certain maintenance issues that the owner may become 'used' to that guests see as a nuisance. We will make sure that these are addressed and again, thank you for taking the time to offer the feedback. Hope you got to see some good bands at ACL, -Amy with iTrip

The house was a perfect fit for our group. We did not realize the pool was in the front yard but it still felt private and was very nice. The house was comfortable and clean. Could not have asked for a better option. Very walkable or just a short Uber to most of what you need!
