Beautiful, both the house & the surroundings. You’ll only be about 15-20 mins from downtown Austin, but it won’t feel like it. Such a quiet oasis away from the hustle & bustle of city lights & traffic.
Guest house has everything you’ll need, including plenty of linen, towels, kitchen items, Roku TV, board games & even snacks. The main bedroom also has storage GALORE & there is a washer & dryer in the garage available for use as well.
Hosts are absolutely lovely & it was a pleasure meeting them in person. They are very accommodating & are available should you need anything. We had a small issue with the check-in code for the entry door & Gena responded immediately & took care of it in a matter of minutes. She & her husband were a pleasure. They even left us a bottle of wine for the trouble, which was such a kind gesture.
As other reviewers have mentioned, getting down to the creek is tricky. The path is not for the elderly, handicapped, injured or those with mobility issues & young children will need to be accompanied closely since the steps are not only steep, but have no railing. I assisted my 10 & 7 year old children & held our 1 year old the entire way up & down. The creek is surrounded by rocks & pebbles & the elevation in the water varies constantly since there are rocks & boulders that vary throughout, so water shoes are a must. There was a water hole very close by so we didn’t have to go far - it was plenty for us, but you certainly could go on for miles! I was pleasantly surprised by how clear the water was! In fact, it you’re able to, the creek is absolutely perfect to go tubing - hosts even have tubes in the garage for use & extra towels should you need them!
We enjoyed our time & had it not rained, we would’ve enjoyed the outdoors longer. It’ll be a good excuse to book again in the future :)
