My husband, teenaged daughter and I stayed in Jennifer's place and would definitely stay again while visiting Austin. You can walk to downtown or it's like a three minute drive! We walked to a fabulous bagel place the first morning! These is a unique park across the street with an outdoor ping-pong table-that was awesome! It was no more than a 25 minute drive to everything, parks, rivers, canoeing, hiking, So. Congress shopping and dining! And for a trip to Austin, you may want some good A/C, and this home has it! We slept very well in our king sized bed!! Lastly, Jennifer is totally responsive, gives great info on the area when asked and is as sweet as can be.
