We live in Austin, less than 10 minutes from Darlene's house. Our house lost power for 7 days in early February due to an ice storm. Several days into the power outage, I booked Darlene's place for our family, which includes 2 dogs.
The house was *such* a welcome retreat! It was immaculately clean, very well decorated, had a nice fenced patio and backyard area for our dogs to run around, and came with everything we could possibly need.
The layout of the house worked well for our family of 4 (my husband and myself, our teen daughter, and my 80 yr old mother). We had the space we needed to spread out and enjoy some much needed downtime and rest after 4 days without power in our very cold house. The beds were ultra comfortable, and everything was in working order.
Thank you Darlene for touching base with us after check-in to make sure we had what we needed, and for providing such a wonderful home for your guests. We highly recommend this lovely central Austin home away from home!
