I had just moved to Dallas after living in Austin for 15 years. It was my son's high school graduation weekend. My mom flew in for the celebration and we rented Earlene's place for five days. Me, my mom, my 3 teenage kids and our Goldendoodle, Oso. We loved it. Clean place, gorgeous views of Lake Travis from three decks, that only improved the higher you went up. The main living area was light an airy and had an eclectic beachy feel to it. The Oasis (Sunset Capital of Texas), was in sight and was only a two mile drive. If you're looking to experience Austin in a way that makes you feel like you're out in the hill country, yet just a 30 minute drive to downtown - this is your place. Earlene was great to communicate with; responding to the few texts I sent within 10 minutes. Would highly recommend.
