Snowy Owl Oasis
Our family had an amazing stay in Eugene’s house! He communicated well and was quick to respond to messages. He went above and beyond our expectations when he picked up and delivered a rice cooker for us to use. The house is spacious and well laid out with a lot of different sleeping areas and sitting areas. The long dining table was great for seating all 12 of us. My boys also enjoyed the tent, hammock, swimming pool, and play set in the backyard. We would definitely stay again!

Great stay
My friends and I stayed at this property to view the eclipse in Austin. It is conveniently located to downtown in a peaceful suburb. Plenty of food options close by. The house was very well stocked with necessities and extra items which lend to having a good time with friends. Eugene was great at communicating and really wanted us to feel comfortable at his property. We didn't have tons of people stay, but there were so many areas where people could sleep or just hang out. We recommend this property and would definitely stay again if in the Austin area!

Great spot for a group!
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!

Great place to host a party
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.

Perfect spot to celebrate
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!

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 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.

So fun and welcoming!
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.

Best house in Austin
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!

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.
