About TurnKey Vacation Rentals

We are both graduates of the University of Texas. I grew up in Austin and my wife is from the Texas Panhandle. We originally lived in this house when we got married but decided it was time for a move when the family started to grow. We currently live about 15 minutes away from the property.

TurnKey Vacation Rentals purchased this house in 2004
Why TurnKey Vacation Rentals chose Austin

We bought the house before babies came along. We loved not only the location but its open floor plan and great lighting from the many windows. It can easily handle a family with children, couples traveling together, or a group of singles in town for a special occasion.

What makes this house unique

You really cannot beat the location. Also has old loblolly pine hardwood floors and all modern amenities. Front porte-cochere is a great place to sit and watch the interesting characters of South Austin go by. Backyard is spacious with comfortable outdoor furniture. It's great for building a fire and enjoying a glass of wine. It's also set up for grilling and games of washers.

Fantastic House and Location

5 of 5
Submitted: May 7, 2013 Stayed: April 2013
This house was perfect for our group of 8 guys looking to walk to a variety of places in Austin. Through the course of the weekend, I walked to Zilker Park, South Lamar, South Congress, South First, bars west of Congress and East 6th Street. The house couldn't be any more centrally located. Despite the proximity to everything, the house sits back on a fairly quiet street so we never felt we had to watch our noise level in the backyard.

The yard was plenty spacious for us to all hang out and the amenities were perfectly adequate. My only complaint is that one of the chairs outside was broken, but fortunately there were plenty of other places to sit. Also it would have been nice if there was more than one roll of toilet paper. It was pretty easy to get more, but the house still has to expect more than one roll will be used through the course of a stay.

The keyless doorcode was a great touch and let our group come and go as we pleased without being tethered to the guy with the key, and let us check in easily, even late at night.

Overall we loved the place. Especially for a cheap price, we couldnt have ended up with a better option for the weekend.

Best Austin Experience!

Can’t say enough positive things about this house!! My girlfriends and I recently came to Austin for a girl’s weekend and stayed here. The house is exceptionally appointed and a truly relaxing place to be right in the middle of all the great things there are to do in town. Monika and Billy were both very easy to work with and also gave us great advice on some of the sights to see. We will definitely be coming back!

Great House

5 of 5
Submitted: December 14, 2012 Stayed: November 2012
I live in Austin but needed a place to put up some family for the holidays. I found this house on Bouldin, in a great part of town, and put my parents and brother’s family up for a few days. They loved it. In fact we debated moving some of our holiday celebrations over there because the house and set up were so comfortable. Thanks for a great stay!

All That and More

5 of 5
Submitted: October 30, 2012 Stayed: October 2012
I had never been to Austin before and wanted to stay in a place that was not too urban but also close to music and restaurants. This home is all that and more. The interior is tastefully decorated and well furnished. There are distinctive features like a 3rd story loft and upstairs deck. And the outside firepit is a great gathering spot with pergola, gardens and ample seating. The rear yard is well sized and picturesque - with mature plantings and trees - straight out of a postcard. And the location is perfect - quick walk to downtown, but far enough away for peace and quiet. As a successful real estate agent, I am constantly assessing properties for their curb appeal and overall aesthetic. Desirability is paramount and if I was charged with marketing this property I wouldn't need to do a thing - it's just right the way it is. I would highly recommend this house.

Fantastic Location/Beautiful Home

5 of 5
Submitted: October 3, 2012 Stayed: September 2012
I rented this house with three other friends for a recent visit to Austin. We are a group of college friends in our 40s and met in Austin for a weekend of live music, great eating and catching up. It would be equally suitable if I were visiting with my family and young kids which I hope to do soon. While Austin has plenty of great hotels, we wanted to be in one house with a nice outdoor gathering spot. This house totally fit the bill and frankly the pictures do not do the property justice, especially the amazing outdoor area. We made great use of the built in fire-pit and comfortable outdoor furniture—the perfect gathering spot for late afternoon cocktails. You can walk to many bars and restaurants from here and proximity to Zilker Park is fantastic. You can tell the owners have put a lot of time and money into the house to create a special experience for guests—pride of ownership really shows here. They were also a pleasure to deal with in all respects. This is what a Homeaway rental should be—hassle free, comfortable, centrally-located and clean. I recommend this great Austin house to anyone.
