Michael was a great host. He has great taste and his house is very well designed and styled. I was in Austin for my sister's graduation so I had all my family with me and it was a great place to entertain. We made good use of the backyard that has a beautiful fire pit with all the wood you need. We also made good use of the gas grill outside. We had a great time and will definitely try to rent one of Michael's properties next time we are in town. Oh...I also brought my puppy and he had a great time as well. He lives in an apartment so having a yard for the weekend was certainly a plus for him.
