Kyle’s place was absolutely perfect for my partner and I’s weekend adventure in Austin. Things were a little uncertain before we left and we still ended up going obviously, but the flexible cancellation policy was really appreciated while we were trying to figure it out.
The location is unbeatable. It’s so walkable: very close to the lake and a short walk, bike ride, or scoot to 6th, Rainey, downtown, UT campus (tip: take the private pedi/bike path if you’re going to UT or downtown).
I liked that we could enter/exit the home from the garage or the front. This unit could be a back house. There’s a larger unit in the front and this one is tucked away in the bamboo-filled back part of the lot. I liked that neighbors felt close by, but far enough away that I never heard or saw them. The unit has a private fenced-in entrance, along a cute tree- and light-lined path. The garage is the back exit and this is super convenient; we mainly entered/exited through the garage. (Note: were able to fit a smaller SUV in the garage but a large SUV or truck will not fit.)
The home was very clean and so stylish. It’s colorful, artsy, industrial, modern, cozy, quiet, and private. The lighting is fantastic. This home has ~all~ of the thoughtful touches: keyless entry and exit + a dozen soft towels + extra bedding + plenty of TP + all minor things (e.g., first aid kit, pair of scissors, pens, ziplocks, white noise machine). Loved the plethora of indoor plants and the 3 outdoor spaces (upstairs balcony, downstairs front patio, downstairs back patio).
