Austin is the center of the Lone Star State and is the gateway to the Texas Hill Country and the Highland Lakes. As the state capital and home to the University of Texas, the city supports a politically charged and culturally rich environment. Austin is hip and high-tech and is lucky to have a huge creative population of musicians, artists, and filmmakers. Austinites live for the outdoors as the city boasts over 300 days of sunshine a year. Nature trails and parks create an oasis in the heart of the city. Town Lake is bordered by 10 miles of hike-and-bike trails where joggers, walkers and cyclists exercise every day. You can take a thirty minute drive to cut your own lavender, bargain for antiques, or visit one of the many Texas wineries and breweries. There are also twenty state parks within a one hour drive.

Petite Suite

fondeegirl Tucson AZ
Review Submitted: September 29, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
I stayed here for about 10 days and LOVED the suite, the location and Rachel and Nick bent over backwards to meet my needs and requests, and offered more than was advertised. Hope to stay here again. This would not be good with kids, only 2 people who want to share the very comfy bed will fit, but it was a perfect place for me this month!

Luxurious Home--have to see to appreciate!

Raul & Alanna Dallas, Tx
Review Submitted: December 16, 2008 Date of Stay: December 2008
Thank you so much, Nick and Rachel, for opening your home to us. After seeing your website, we were prepared for a very comfortable stay, but we were pleasantly suprised that your home had all the luxuries of home plus so much more! The kids loved watching their favorite videos on the ginormous TV, and we loved the open living/kitchen area. There was plenty of room for everyone, and the walk-in closets were an added bonus! The master bath shower with the dual shower heads was absolutely amazing (now we'll have to renovate our own, hehe)! The home was immaculate, roomy, with an interesting eclectic decor. We visited the Austin Children's Museum (mentioned their "open door access" for free admission), and ate at the Burger House (fantastic food at a great price)! The kitchen was very well equipped, and we were able to make enchildadas, rice, and beans using your cookware. What a joy to be able to relax and look out the back door to watch the children play in the fenced in yard, with no worries for their safety. We were even able to put your iron and ironing board to good use to ensure we looked our best for church on Sunday! We highly recommend your home for anyone visiting the Austin area--so much better than a hotel, and even better than home!
