Shara provided a very lovely home with a fully functional kitchen that was thoughtfully furnished and a large main room for us to use for a family gathering. She also set up a Christmas tree and seasonal decorations... a special treat since we were in Austin for the holidays. The fenced yard was perfect for our little dog to stretch his legs. Although others mentioned the train that runs nearby, we never heard one blow their whistle. Anyone who is used to city traffic or nearby airport noises won't find it to be noticeable. The neighborhood was very quiet. The location was terrific for shopping at The Domain and visiting restaurants.
