Lovely location, wake up to birds chirping, deer wandering and relatively close to getting downtown. Kitchen is well-stocked although a newer, large frying pan would be a great addition. We had 7 adults in our group and did not have trouble with the 10 pm outdoor noise ordinance despite a jest here and there.

Beautiful space, great windows - could use some updates and additional comfy seating in the great room. Visited February 2017, would have loved to throw open all the doors and windows, but the screens were missing in most of the doors and windows. Perhaps having doors open in Austin is a very small window of time. The weather was almost perfect. The house would benefit well from a thorough, top to bottom spring cleaning, although keeping bugs completely out and webs away when surrounded by woods would be a tough job.

Bathrooms could definitely use some updates. Small, 70's style, low shower heads. Towels and rugs were getting a bit ragged and the house could stand some freshening up in general. Washer and dryer were on premises, so freshening up a load of towels was not a hardship.

The spacious accommodations were very reasonable and perhaps if it were updated, the price would not be as attractive or it would be in extremely high demand. The steep curving hills are a bit intimidating, but the instructions were thorough so even when Waze got it wrong, we were able to find it without too much trouble.

Met the owner briefly, she is delightful.
