Threw a birthday party here for almost 30 people it went great. Eugene made it easy to focus on our event with a very friendly checkout times and policies, and fast communication.
The yard and pool are mostly shaded, which made it surprisingly comfortable to be outside during sunny 100F weather.
There are quite a few places to sit inside and out, though we brought a few more chairs for the pool. Eugene's home included convenient towels, coolers, outdoor lighting, indoor speakers, and some serverware.
The bedrooms are all located upstairs and isolated from the main living area so people staying the night could store their belongings and have a private space away from other guests.

We had 10 women gather here to celebrate a bachelorette party, and I don't think we could have chosen a better spot. Eugene was one of the best hosts I've come into contact with, and went out of his way to check in daily on anything we could need. The house was fully stocked with fun bachelorette party supplies (and some snacks and coffee) and we made full use of the shaded pool area and outdoor dining space even in the heat of August!

This home was perfect for a college reunion. The pool was shaded so the heat was never an issue even in the middle of summer. Overall, I would definitely recommend to others.

We had a party of 12 girls and this property accommodated all of us. We had so much fun by the pool. The owner was extremely helpful and was super nice when we locked ourselves outside. Overall the experience was amazing. Definitely recommend.

Eugene couldn’t have been more helpful and accommodating both with the upfront booking as well as once we arrived in Austin. The house is better than advertised. Phenomenal backyard and pool area, spacious inside with lots of sleeping arrangements. In a nice quiet neighborhood but only 15min drive to downtown Austin. Highly highly recommend

We had a wonderful stay for our daughter’s graduation from UT Austin. Plenty of room for everyone. Three bedrooms have room for six people. Rest of beds in gym and common space. We felt like Eugene’s personal guests.

Eugene is a great host. He was extremely friendly and made sure we had everything as needed at the Place.
The place was very clean and is close to City with a quick uber ride. The neighborhood is really nice with some grocery stores and breakfast places close by. Definitely recommend to stay if you're considering a trip to Austin.

The house was perfect for our group. The yard is great for hanging out around the house and the house is located very close to amenities. The host was great and checked in throughout the weekend to ensure we had everything we needed. Would definitely stay here again!

I stayed at Eugene’s property for my bachelorette party, and it was perfect for us! Eugene was an excellent host, always making sure we were satisfied, and he was super quick to respond when I had a couple questions leading up to the stay. The backyard is definitely the biggest seller of the house, but there were also plenty of sleeping arrangements possible to make the stay great for all of us. Thanks Eugene for being so helpful and ensuring that your guests have an awesome stay!

We are local, but had family staying in town for the weekend to help celebrate my birthday, and then opened up the home to friends for a party on Sunday afternoon. The property worked very well for us, both as a place to stay and a place to celebrate. We enjoyed the pool, the game room, and had a cook-out on the deck for around 30 people. The host was super-responsive, and went out of his way to support our stay.
5.0
Eugene was the most communicative host I've ever had the experience of interacting with! He made sure that my party was equipped with all the necessities and would check in with the group regularly to see if there was anything we needed so we could enjoy partying throughout the weekend. 10/10 would come back for any sort of reunion we have in the future and would recommend staying here again and again!

We can’t even begin to say how much we enjoyed our trip. We had people coming locally, but also driving and flying in town. The private pool was PERFECT. We spent about 90% of our time outside, despite the heat. It is well shaded and not bad to hang out in and around the water. We had a surprise 50th birthday get together and the house was perfect. It was a great location and Eugene (the owner) was beyond amazing to communicate with. We had two dogs with us and they were not only welcomed at the property, but Eugene had dog bowls, treats and toys for them. There was plenty of space, some snacks and booze that Eugene left that we were welcomed to. I had a couple of questions during our stay and got immediate answers. So happy with the space and all transactions involved.

Excellent House & Host
From start to finish, Eugene was extremely informative and answered any questions I had. The house accommodated all of my friends and the backyard is where we spent most of our time. I’ve never had a host care for their guests as much as Eugene. If you are ever looking to stay in the Austin area, be sure to book here! We will definitely be back.

Awesome place, close to city
The property was exactly what we were looking for, we enjoyed the pool and the backyard during the day and the city at night. The host was great, gave us recommendations and made the process really smooth for our group.

This is an awesome house, one of the best houses you could rent anywhere since parties are allowed (although we didn't really use this feature). The outdoor pool is uniquely deep, not like the crappy 3' deep pools at the so-called "luxury" house rental spots, and is incredibly unique in its setting beneath the trees. The house is very well air-conditioned for fighting the heat as well. Just seems to have everything you could want or need. Very cool, and the host is very nice!

Eugene was a great host! Extremely accommodating and laid back. The house was perfect, a lot of space and a huge backyard. We had a ton of fun hanging around the pool.

The house is conveniently located within 10-15 minutes (depending on traffic) to downtown and the university. It is clean, easily accommodates a party of 10 and has an awesome backyard. Its peaceful, away from any main thoroughfare and gives the feeling of being somewhat secluded. The host is prompt to any inquiry. I’ll definitely be back

We rented the home out for New Year's weekend, Eugene (host) was extremely helpful and attentive from day one until check-out. The location was wonderful, within walking distance to many local spots in South Austin. The home itself had all the necessary amenities as well as enough room to host a gathering both indoors and out with enough privacy from neighbors. Unfortunately we were unable to use the pool since it was wintertime, but the outdoor firepits and grills made up for that! Definitely keeping this place on my list for our next visit.
