Excellent stay. Honestly, the pictures don't do any justice and I recommend more/better pictures. It's a very large house with a lot of space and amenities (more than the pictures show). We had 10 guys, and everyone had a bed (no couches needed).

Avoid this Property; Host is unreliable and dishonest
I would recommend avoiding this property. Otherwise, be ready to clean up the place upon arrival and bring your own towels. Contact VRBO directly if you notice any issues. The owner's responses are often delayed or provide false reassurances. If the owner tries to contact you over text, only use the app to communicate. Host is unreliable and dishonest. We received an additional day without requesting it, but I'm grateful we arrived before most of our guests. The place was in shambles, and they had neglected to schedule cleaners since the previous stay. Day 1 When we checked in the evening - Trash was uncollected and spilling over All the beds were used All the bathrooms and floors were dirty No clean towels were available We realized that the bathroom door lock doesn’t stay locked So we had to make a makeshift sign for toilet to avoid people walking into each other The earliest response from the host was at 12:30am He claimed he’ll refund us “lot of money” Offered to buy us breakfast, cooler full of drinks, and/or a boat ride He provided access to the linen closet for sheets and towel Day 2 The Cleaning lady arrvied at 11am and one the glass panels fell out in a bathroom Due to the Broken glass, we were unable to use one of the three showers Day 3 The oven had issues where it would intermittently stop working Final For weeks impression given that a refund will provided but the host suddenly claimed that since an extra day was given- he’s not responsible for other issues.

Perfect spot for a bachelor get away to ATX!
This VRBO could not have been more ideal for our recent bachelor trip to ATX- the house was clean with plenty of space for our larger group for beds, games, and hanging out in the backyard. It is in a great location, and the recent addition of the chipping/ putting green is awesome. Our host Dallas was also super flexible and kept in constant communication regarding checkin and any of our groups needs.

I stayed here for a bachelor party with nine of my friends and it was perfect! The house is huge, in a great neighborhood, and has lots of extras that made it a lot of fun (sound system, ping pong, etc.) The host and his staff were also very friendly and professional. Would definitely stay here again!

Fraudulent charges put a damper on the stay
Honest review here of the actual house, but please consider other reviews as the host has a repeating pattern of being fraudulent. Leading up to our stay, the host was very accommodating, flexible, and had great communication. The house itself is a very nice floor plan, although there are a lot of cosmetic damages so just in case (and especially after our experience) be sure to take a LOT of pictures (before and after). Because of the damages, it definitely seemed like a party house since a lot of them could've easily been fixed or covered. Almost everything worked fine, the place was fairly clean, and we did not have any big issues during our stay. The hot tub did not warm at all (and was pretty gross), but it was pretty cold so we wouldn't have used it long anyway. The other amenities like the Sonos system, board games, and large outdoor space were nice. The host told us that another group was staying the day we were checking out, so the check out time was important to let the maid clean. The trouble came after we checked out. A few days later, the host filed a claim for almost $300 in damages, claiming we poured a lot of grease and oil down the sink and clogged the plumbing. This was immediately concerning as we did not use any oil or cook any meats and any food scraps were thrown away (frozen dumplings caused the pipes to clog..?) After questioning the charge, he sent a picture of the sink which was filthy with grease, filled with soda cans and beer bottles, and said there were bottles of oil as well next to the sink(weird comment?). I told him it must've been the group staying after us because we did not have any oil and did not bring any of the various cans or beer. I know exactly what we brought, and not one of the sodas or beers were something of ours. We also spent a lot of time and effort cleaning the place up and taking the trash out before we left. Even with a maid coming (we even saw her on our way out), we didn't want to leave her with a mess to clean up or risk a charge. He then said that no one stayed after us so it could only have been us. This is the opposite of what he sent me for the checkout (I have the message still) and doesn't make sense because we saw the maid on the way out. I have since escalated this issue with VRBO, but it's very disheartening to put so much effort into cleaning up only to have the host fraudulently charge you.

Renter beware - good for large groups but that's about it
I was skeptical when booking because of the the negative reviews but just hoped that it was people blowing things out of proportion. I am not one to give bad reviews because I know things aren't always perfect, and sometimes things are out of the renters control. I will say if you are looking for a house that can accommodate a large group, this is an affordable housing option and does hold a lot of people. We had a bachelor party stay there and was perfect for the size, but that's about it. Upon arrival to Austin I had not heard from the Owner or had received any check in instructions. I left him a voicemail and sent a text around 4:30 before our 5:00 check in, where he finally responded. He indicated he had food poising so again I'll give him the benefit of the doubt, but based on all the other negative reviews it seems like there's always an excuse. The pictures posted on VRBO were clearly taken 15 years ago because the house was pretty run down. Tile floors were cracked, holes in drywall, a rotting deck to the hot tub with weeds and trees growing out of it (thankfully no one fell through and stabbed themselves with a rusty screw), etc. The backyard was in a complete disarray, none of the balls for the outdoor games were inflated, half the lights in the outdoor trellis area were burnt out and the bamboo or whatever pathway around the fire fit was just an overgrown jungle. The BIGGEST red flag was when we started to pull out the beds under the day bed/in the room of all single beds/and moved the ottoman in the main room there was RAT poop everywhere. Sleeping on beds that had rat poop/pee on them is very unsafe but we tried our best by changing the sheets. This review could keep going on, but at the end of the day if you're in need of a large house to accommodate your group this would work - but just be aware that the negative reviews are actually legit.

Renters Beware - not family friendly
Austin is such a great city; but our visit would have been better if this VRBO would have been properly maintained. It's true that the proximity to the city is a strong reason to stay in this home; consider the noise from the train nearby before renting (it goes by loud every hour). BUT, the maintenance on the home was way overdue and clearly ignored. Broken patio in front, dirty hot tub, worn out game table, deflated balls, broken stove top and oven switches, broken dishwasher racks, cracked art of George Washington, busted drape rods or missing drapes, slow water flow downstairs bathrooms, and the list can go on. If the owner makes repairs this property would be a blast for families because of its location, but until then, it's probably only good for a bachelor party house. Renter beware!

Thanksgiving stay
We stayed here for a Thanksgiving family reunion. This is a good size house. The kitchen is well stocked with pots/pans/dishes. The house needs some maintenance. It was fairly clean, with the exception of the floors, which we had to go over. The top rack of the dishwasher is broken, making it unusable. The wine fridge and small refrigerator were not clean. The toaster is also broken. The downstairs "master" shower door does not close properly causing water to spill all over the bathroom floor. The upstairs "master" bath toilet runs all the time, unless you jiggle the handle "just so" or take the lid off and manually close the flapper after each flush. Also, we were not able to locate the remotes for the tvs in the bedrooms. We were able to watch the tv in the living room. With a little work this could be a really nice place.

Disappointed, disgusted, served the purpose. Lesson - Read all reviews! Last resort for large groups
Good neighborhood, served purpose overall for 13 guests. Wanted a clean home with adequate working amenities, and that was NOT the case here. Don't let the 1p check-in fool you. It is 4-5p. Host auto approved early check-in when we booked but when I asked what time early check-in is, I was told we could come the night before and pay extra. A Tesla exec stays on most open nights between rentals, so we'd pay his rate. Here is what we walked into upon arriving. Inside the home: Dirty dishes still in the sink Urine left in main floor master bathroom toilet Trash left in the kitchen trash can and in one bathroom trash can Very large and sticky dried spill on white kitchen island counter Styrofoam drink cup ½ full next to chair on floor Dead cockroach under bed (maid should have disposed of this) Filthy guest bathroom window frame/ledge, no screen, full of spider webs and bugs on inside Urine not cleaned around guest bathroom toilet Guest bathroom shower does not drain (standing in own dirty/soapy water) Friend sat in white vinyl dining room chair within short time of arrival the first day, the cushion went through the frame No fire detectors Missing light cover on ceiling fan in main floor master bedroom (only small lightbulb hanging) Broken toaster (only works if you held handle down) Only ½ of the burners on the stove worked 5 coffee mugs Outside/backyard: Only 4 outdoor chairs (mostly broken/unusable) Ping Pong table unusable (broken net/no balls) Decorations from a previous party laying around Kan Jam unusable/no frisbees All balls used for outdoor beer pong randomly laying in backyard were flat, ripped, worn All outdoor games listed on the website were completely unusable Found 1 ripped corn hole bag Active wasp nest as you walk outside Could not enjoy the yard at all which was one of the highlights Host told me surgeons used his house day before. Maid maybe left early to get kids. She informed him 90% clean. His listing reads 3 days minimum between vacancies. Maid could return at 9p to finish cleaning. We declined, cleaned ourselves it should have been cleaned. He said we could dig through 6 donation boxes left for veterans to find linens. He left set of 5 towels 2 days into our stay. Got access to owner closet for t-paper, paper towels, pillowcases. Host gave refund for cleaning fee and 1 less guest. No such thing as a security deposit refund as host claims. I have pix of all and all conversation documentation. Listing is misrepresented!

Nice house but description not totally accurate
The house itself was great, but it was advertised as having 14 different sleeping areas (Beds, pull out couches, futons, etc.) but there were only 12 setup. There were 2 beds in the closets so all we needed to rectify it was some sheets that we couldn't find. I reached out to the property manager about it and after some pushback (In which they hinted at me lying about the number of people staying at the house by stating he can check how many people come in due to the camera by the front door) they offered to have me buy the sheets myself and reimburse me, which they ended up doing. Small hiccup in an otherwise nice stay

Bachelorette Party of 10
Check in process: The check in time of this property was unclear. Was given multiple different times (prior to to check in)of when we were able to get in. The email I received the day before said 1pm and when it came that time, I was unable to get ahold of the property manager via phone call. No passcode or directions in email provided. Multiple calls by my friends and I, and a call to vrbo he finally gave us the passcode to get in to the place. **He was very apolgetic of this after following up, and we did receive some comps. Cleanliness: Killed 3 cockroaches during our stay. All on the main floor by the bedrooms. There was mold on the ceiling, dirty dining room chairs. A lot of damaged to walks and visible tape marks on walls, cracked picture frame. Barely had enough towels for 10 girls. Could definitely buy new towels. Very old, obvious it has had several uses/washes. The beds were very comfortable and everyone had a bed to sleep in with a group of 10. It was evident that the backyard outdoor area was not maintained. Requested outdoor seating for 10 prior to visit and only 4 chairs were there and some of them were broken...Not sure when the hot tub was cleaned, but it was too hot out for it anyway. The red security lights in both the front and backyard were a little odd. No lighting in the bathroom shower upstairs. Made it very difficult to shower in the evening. Overall, it was in a nice location based on activities we had planned. I don't think it was worth the amount of money. House has potential, just needs a little love and tlc.
