I've stayed in a lot of Airbnbs and Julie's was my favorite. Her home was in fact hers, not some anonymous owner who's renting it out for the profit. It's serene, stylish, impeccably clean, full of natural light. The living room has two comfortable chairs with ottomans and a comfy leather couch. The kitchen has every high end appliance you could want -- a Kitchen Aid mixer, an immersion blender and a roomy Kitchen Aid microwave, among others -- as well as Le Creuset dutch ovens. The coffee station had a pound of both excellent medium roast and decaf coffees, with a quart of half and half in the fridge. No need to cart shampoo, conditioner, toothbrush, toothpaste or deodorant -- all are provided in the bathroom, along with very fluffy luxurious towels. And if only Austin hadn't hit 100 degrees every day we were there! The spacious, private back yard is so inviting, with a grill, pleasant seating, an herb garden with thriving basil, sage, oregano, bell peppers and thyme. Julie definitely has a green thumb, and the beautiful plants are inside the house as well as outside. Best of all, Julie is a kind and gracious hostess. Our stay was superb in every way. Thank you, Julie!
