We absolutely loved having the house and back house, lots of room for our family. The location is convenient to driving to restaurants and activities. Some of the furniture is in rough shape, but doable. I thought the charge for a medical service dog was extremely high, not a charge we are accustom to paying when we travel.
Great house for a guys weekend in Austin. Plenty of rooms and beds for our group and space to spread out. Pool was great to hangout in the day or after being out for the evening. House has nice amenities with pool, hot tub, game areas. All rooms were clean and ready when we checked. Host was helpful as we communicated in advance for recommendations for activities and restaurants. Host checked in a few times to see how things were going and if needed anything.
We stayed in this house last weekend with a group of 11 guys. There was plenty of room to sleep and kick back. House was very clean and comfortable. Pool and spa were great amenity. Walking distance to UT baseball game and quick 5 min uber to 6th street. Bonus is there is a small liquor store right next door so very convenient to pick up beer and snacks. The host, Brooks, was great and really went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. 5 stars and would definitely be back!
The property is in a rough neighborhood. It is close to many places, however, you have to pass some scary parts, so walking is not exactly safe. There was a man in a home across the street in his front yard on day one yelling constantly and a woman who was screaming to herself at midnight for 2 nights in a row. When we got there, one of the garage doors would only open halfway. The dishwasher in the back
house never worked. The garbage disposal in both houses wouldn't work initially. Thankfully Ronaldo came and got the garage door to work, got us in the back house and reset the switch to get the garbage disposal to work in the front house.
The heat in the front house wouldn't come on at first because it had to be synced with the thermostat upstairs within 2 degrees.
I have a whole list:
Toilets wouldn't flush well
2 Toilet seats broken
Water upstairs never got over lukewarm
Outdoor games thrown all over the yard
Breaker for the dishwasher in guest unit is permanently flipped. They tried to flip it and it would flip back.
No can opener
no cutting knives in guest unit
no trash can is guest master bedroom
The coffee pot would not work initially. They did replace it.
The lock on the doors were warning of a low battery in both houses. We called and were told it should still have some life left, however the front house app lock eventually wouldn't open and hod to be manually opened.
We also were not informed of how the handle on the gate had to be positioned or how to block the code pad until we spoke to Ronaldo,
We spent far too much time on the phone with people to fix things. It dug into our time for sightseeing and spending quality time with our family.
The property is very cool. 2 houses with a modern feel. There are a few things here and there that need maintenance or didn't work as one would expect, but for us it wasn't an issue. The team over at Black opal was great. Yen was available by phone all weekend and very helpful. This is definitely a great spot for a weekend hang and very close to the city.
Went for a long weekend on a guys trip. Neighborhood is a little worn down but the house is amazing. Itâs actually two houses with a very modern concept. We loved exploring Austin but spent a ton of time hanging at the house. Love having the Sonos speakers throughout as well.
This place was perfect for our group of 13 friends. Location is ideal and a very short Uber/like scooter away from great bars and restaurants. Space was more than enough for all of us to relax and gather comfortably. The dual kitchens are a huge bonus if youâre cooking a large meal. Only issue was that the hot tub was ice cold when we got there but the host was very responsive and quick to help us out. Would stay here again.
We were 13 guys and there was plenty of space for all of us. Brooks offered us early and late checkout (for a fee) and was willing to accommodate our every need. He was very responsive and the house was comfortable. The neighborhood is sketchy as heck but we didnât have any issues. A sacrifice worth making for being so close to downtown in a house that size.
I've stayed multiple times at this beautiful property... every time it is SUPER CLEAN... and organized... this time one of the guys left a pair of jeans in one of the dressers after we checked out... the property manager coordinated with us and went out of his way to make sure we got it back... Much Appreciated!
This property is perfect for enjoying time with a group. Itâs located near plenty of delicious cafes and eateries and is very close to downtown Austin (but far enough away that you get a great nights sleep). The owner and property manager are super helpful and easy to communicate with. Definitely recommend!
This property manager should be removed from the VRBO platform. It took months to get him to accept payments in advance of a large group gathering, where he consistently neglected communications giving. Numerous times he failed to process correct payment details and he even attempted multiple reoccurring payments which were luckily denied by my banking institution. Needless to say, this gave me great anxiety leading up to our stay, as I was worried our reservations were not solid.
Three weeks prior to the groups stay, as local public health officials issued the highest elevated risk due to COVID spread and max capacity hospitals, the manager agreed to a refund over the phone with a representative from VRBO, after I called because I couldn't reach him. After I inquired about the status of the refund to VRBO, the manager sent an inappropriate and nonsensical email, stating that conditions in Austin were normal for months and that the media was to blame, despite local public health officials warnings.
In using vacation stay platforms for over a decade, this is by far the most lazy, unethical and inconsiderate property manager I have encountered.
Was a great house for a group of people, very close to downtown Austin. The homeowner was super accommodating during the entire process. Highly recommend.
We had a great time celebrating a bachelor party for the weekend. The place is great to stay for a large group because there are plenty of beds and bathrooms, while having the space to not feel crammed and activities to do outside around the pool. The representative is very responsive to all questions you may have. You are only a short 10 min uber away from any popular spot in Austin. Definitely would recommend to people planning a weekend celebration.
We were happy with the property and its location in regards to all Austin has to offer. Only issues were the outdoor speakers were inaudible. We were told this is to not disturb the neighbors and to listen to our own speaker. This should be advertised because we didnât bring a speaker and with all the outdoor activities offered, music would have been nice.
Most of the ceiling fan remotes had dead batteries and the hot tub controls were broken. The front âgate doorâ was also broken.
All in all, we were happy with the place. Great layout for a large group and the owner was very responsive to all our questions.
Great for groups, even though itâs not quite a 5-star luxury property
How itself is gorgeous with lots of space and high end finishes. The layout is perfect for groups. Itâs clearly rented out to lots of young groups like ourselves so thereâs a lot of wear and tear on the property (outside furniture is banged up, some things are a little less than spotless), but the property worked for us nonetheless. Also, be aware that paying for early check-in does not mean the property will be ready to go by 12pm, it just means you can access the property by 12pm but the cleaners will still be working (this was not clear to us and we had to wait around on the patio for 2-3hrs while the cleaners finished up inside)
Overall the house was excellent! We dad a group of 13 friends to celebrate a 40th birthday. The property is just as advertised - basically two entirely separate houses connected by a great courtyard with pool/firepit/garage/etc. House has basically every amenity you would need and then some, plus no shortage of instagrammable "moments" through the property. If you're looking to swim laps, this isn't the pool for you, but it's a great spot for lounging and hanging out with friends. Neighborhood is still developing, but the location is great - easily walkable/scooterable/Uber-able to anywhere you'd want to be within minutes.
Only downside to speak of was communication. You are clearly dealing with a property management company vs. the actual property owner. The check-in process in particular was frustrating...it was enough paperwork to think I was actually buying the house vs. renting it for a weekend. I had to ask several times to get the actual door codes to get in which led to us sitting outside the house in 85 degree, humid weather with a bunch of groceries for almost 30 minutes waiting to be able to get into the house. Once we finally got the code, the door didn't work and thankfully one of the property management employees showed up and got us in. Also took until halfway through the trip to get instructions on how to actually use the hot tub, which required downloading an app. Wouldn't have been as frustrating except they were more than happy to communicate with us about the mimosa/bloody mary bar they offer and all the different upcharges we would incur for any littany of different items - extra guests, pets, late check-out, leaving the hot tub on overnight, etc. etc.
To be fair, I think a lot of these items were one-off issues that wouldn't necessarily be recurring things that future groups would have to deal with. Overall, the house was great and would still wholeheartedly recommend to any group.
