Scenic location perfect for early risers
This scenic area has a pool house that the owner has added a queen bed to in the main room. The private pool is lovely and buts up against the owners home on two sides. The so called 2nd bedroom is only an office size room with a trundle bed that needs a real mattress in both levels of the trundle. The refrigerator is only a small drink cooler. The kitchenette has a microwave, coffee maker and dishes, etc. Kathryn was very nice and her furniture and small tv were sufficient for our two people stay.

Great respite outside of Austin
The owner is exceptionally responsive to guest needs and inquiries. The property is very clean and well-kept. The pool area is very well done with plenty of seating and tables. The pool is perfectly sized and has a shallow and deep end. The cottage has an outstanding view of woods and creek.

Sublime
Everything as advertised. Perfect for a couple. Quiet and relaxing, great natural light. Lovely setting and great if you like to view the trees. Away from the city but everything reasonably available. Katheryn was charming and friendly when she welcomed us, and left us alone to enjoy her beautiful home. Everything top quality. Would definitely do it again when in Austin. I could live there.

Serenity in nature
It's surprising to find such quiet isolation so close to Austin. We watched a doe graze with her fawn, unhurried, on the front lawn, with no one anywhere near but the two of us (guests) and maybe Katheryn (host) in her house next door. Swimming in the shaded pool under the sonorous wind chimes was so relaxing and pleasant. Most of our interaction with Katheryn was by text, ahead of our visit, so it was a pleasure to finally meet her (and her very friendly dog) after we arrived. A wonderful experience all around.

Very nice location removed from the city. Really enjoyed our stay and location was perfect for us to visit a couple of distant family members we don't get to see very often. Only item I would note is there is no stove top, and the location is fairly remote from restaurants. Made do with the microwave and all was ok. Would definitely stay again.

Gorgeous property!
Extremely comfortable for 2 seniors traveling. Kitchenette area allowed us to have light breakfast, morning coffee, snacks etc. living area provided ample room to relax on evening. Bed and bedding very comfortable. Wildlife entertained us every morning!! Countrylike setting was stunning….with creek down a steep embankment. but probably not a location for younger children. I would definitely rebook into this property.

Would have been nice to cook breakfast at least.
Great place for couple, bedroom to close to main bed in living area. Day bed could use a real mattress. Originally my daughter was going to stay with me but not enough privacy had to rent hotel room. But if you go as a couple great place.
