Notes
We do have a dog and cat! We could board the dog if you can't let her out during your stay. Bella is our dog and she is a lab mix 12 years old. She can go about 8-10 hours without a potty break. We have a yard where you can let her out so minimal fuss. Nicola is our cat who is indoor / outdoor and is 14 years old. Both animals are pretty low maintenance.

Neighbourhood
Beautiful family friendly neighborhood that is quiet but still close to most anything you would want to do. The neighborhood is filled with large mature trees and is walking distance to a green belt with several miles of hiking trails. There are deer that stroll along the street and live in the green spaces.
Getting to my home
Driving or ride share is best. From airport its 20-25 mins. From downtown Austin it's about 20 mins north west.
Nearest airport
20 min drive to/from airport
Getting around
A car is best to get around. There is a pizza and beer restaurant that is about a few mins walk from the house. The metro is 5 miles away that will take you to downtown in 25 minutes.

We are a family of 3 looking to do some slower travel and connect with new people and places. I grew up in Lancaster, Pennsylvania and my wife grew up in Ann Arbor Michigan. We met in Austin and have called it home for sometime now! We have done lots of Airbnb's / VRBOs domestically and internationally and love the idea of home exchanging!
"eastern PA, family in Lancaster area so flexible when to go and visit"
