When we travel to Austin to we look for a place where it is easy to relax and cook. Our visits are always family visits so we are often looking for a place where we can cook relax and have a friend or family member comfortably visit for an afternoon. Merri Gale and Donald's place was perfect for this.

The house was comfortable and the interior design was interesting but in no way oppressive. They obviously care very much about design and comfort. We never met them but all our communications were easy and things went very smoothly.

Highly recommended for a group of two to four adults or a couple with one or two (gentle) children.
