Amazing Stay

I stayed here for the summer while working in Austin and couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. The owners are amazing and had the fridge full of food and drinks! They were super quick with responding and helping with anything I needed! They even looked out for my packages when I wasn’t there to get them.

Nice Rental

I stayed here for work over the summer. The place was clean and within a good commuting distance from where I worked. The owners had left snacks for the first night that I arrived. The check-in/out process was easy and the owners were always available for any issues that may have come up.

Perfect Home Away From Home!

Stay here if you’re visiting Austin! I booked Maggie and Sherry’s place for a month and they made me feel so welcomed! The house has everything you could possibly need. It’s cozy and clean and in such a great location. And the backyard was a little piece of heaven for my dog! I’ll be visiting Austin again later this year and will definitely try to book again here!

Not a good experience with Maggie.

I will make sure if you bring dogs to have her approved it. I had requested bringing two dogs and at the property she said I did not. I told her that I had it in writing. Also, loud music from neighbors until 5:30 am on the weekends. We did not have any sleep. We left 3 days earlier than expected. I never write bad reviews but this time I had no choice.

Nice patio

There were some great things about this property, roomy, very nice patio, fridge was full of snacks and drinks. The neighborhood was not what I would have chosen, a little on the run down side. The property was convenient to our daughters and south Austin attractions though.

Great location

I come to Austin a lot and enjoy staying just south of downtown. I love the area. Great restaurants, coffee shops and parks. The owners were extremely wonderful. They texted quite often to ask how I was doing. It felt like I was staying next-door to family. I stayed for one month. There is a wonderful park near by that I took my dogs to on the weekends. It is great to run or walk. The place is between the 290/71 and 35. Very easy to get on the freeway to go anywhere you want. Kitchen is stocked if you like to cook as I do. Enjoy!!!!

Wonderful home away from home!

I just moved to Austin from LA and needed a place to stay for a couple of months while transitioning to my new permanent residence. Maggie and Sherry are terrific and were very thoughtful and attentive to my needs. The place is very clean, spacious, and has everything needed to live comfortably, including a private little backyard! I love how quiet and peaceful it is and found it a great place to work remotely. It's a convenient location to get around the city. There is also a beautiful park just a short walk away and I enjoyed a stroll almost every day. My kitty also loved it and she clearly didn't want to leave. I'll have fond memories of being here for sure. I think whoever stays here will enjoy it and find it quite affordable compared to other places in the area.

A literal home away from home

Had a fantastic one-month stay at this wonderful property. It's a duplex home, with a little yard and shaded deck in back. The owners were wonderful. They leave you alone, but are right next door if you have any question or problem, and they respond immediately. They are also very generous in stocking the home with all necessities, including having some foodstuffs & drinks in fridge upon my arrival. Great location, too. Quiet residential neighborhood, but very close to major highways for accessing anywhere in Austin. Highly recommend this property, whether for a short or long stay.

2 weeks stay

My mother stayed here for 2 weeks. Owners live next door and they kept to themselves. Neighborhood is quiet, home is fully furnished and snacks & drinks in the fridge/freezer. Bathroom was fully stocked along with laundry detergent. It was very homelike. The only thing that “bugged” her were the bugs that came into the house when she came in and out of the house. She was very happy with her stay.

simply marvelous

It's all been EASY! Location is central and easy to get anywhere. The facilities are clean, comes stocked with basics and is quiet - I know, I have dogs with me who are more than happy to bark at every noise - yet they have been quiet themselves. Well worth the cost and efforts.
