About The Owner

I am an RN who is self employed in Medical Sales for 20 years. I enjoy boating on Lake Austin, the Austin Music Scene, Restaurants and the neighborhood. I come from a great large family and have lots of friends.

The Owner purchased this house in 2000
Why The Owner chose Austin

I went to a party at this house when I moved to Austin from North Dakota in 1983. I really enjoyed the location. It came up for rent in 1997 and and I rented it. It then came up for sale in 2000 and ithen purchased it. It is a great place and I decided to make it a vacation rental, so many more people get to enjoy this cool place.

What makes this house unique

The close proximity to Lake Austin, downtown, and a couple of the most popular restaurants in Austin as well as Texas

Great location and property owner!

My girlfriends and I planned a last minute trip to Austin for the Color Run and Lonestar Jam a couple of weeks ago. We communicated with Lyle 2 days before we needed to book a place to stay. He was quick in his response, acceptance of payment/deposit refund, and providing rental details. When we arrived we were SO pleased with the location, size of the rental, and outdoor space to hang out. We were able to walk to Hula Hut for dinner, were just a few miles away from the downtown and campus area, and loved the bar/patio space at the house. We are all music lovers and really enjoyed the iPod docking stations to provide music at the house as well. We went to the Lonestar Jam and were suprised by a text from Lyle saying that we should go to the Reckless Kelly merchants tent for a special treat. He had arranged for each of us to get a free koozie!! What other rental place does that?!?! We had a wonderful weekend. The only negative aspect was that the unit must have been previously smoked in because it has a distinct smoke odor inside. We were able to open the windows (since it was nice out) to air the place out but for those who may be bothered by this, just a heads up. Thanks Lyle for an awesome stay!!

I did my sister's bachelor party at this location. It was very close to town lake and all the fun stuff there is to do in Austin. We really enjoyed our stay. There were 9 girls so we stretched the limit of the house but had everything we needed in terms of bedding, sheets, towels. We left some stuff at the house and Lyle was kind enough to follow up on this after we left!

Owner's Response: Thanks, I'm glad it worked out and you got all of your stuff back.

Fantastic home away from home while working in Austin!

I was extremely fortunate to be a guest here while working on a recording project in Austin recently. I have to say that I can't imagine better surroundings or a better host than my new friend Lyle. I felt completely at home, and everything anyone could need is right there. Everything about the house is set up to move right in and make yourself at home, and the location is convenient to Lake Austin, the beautiful Municipal Golf Course, and several great restaurants. The place is extremely clean and very well taken care of. I can enthusiastically recommend this property for anyone visiting Austin, whether staying a few nights, or a few months!

Superb Winter Hideout

5 of 5
Submitted: March 2, 2013 Stayed: December 2012
Everything is as represented and more. The owner is personable, friendly and reponsive to tenant needs. The home is very well furnished and maintained...also easy to keep up with routine maintenance. Lots of value in a relatively small space. As a winter Texan, I could not have asked for more in a comfortable, clean, safe, and convenient place to stay. The location is great, next to the lake with restaurants close by and access to the trail system for walking/running/biking. For those who like golf, the municipal course is nearby. The location in the Tarrytown area of Austin is a huge plus. Pretty cool. I would recommend this home to anybody who wants to spend some time in Austin. Many thanks to Lyle.
Owner's Response: Thank you. This guest was my first long term rental of 105 days. He was a great tenant as well. I'm glad it worked out for you. Again, thanks. Lyle
