The Verandah Apartments, pet friendly and reasonable. Close to the highway so you can still get to work, and when your ready to see the nightlife there are Party Buses ready to take you to Austin and back. Keep cool in the pool while you wait on laundry to finish. For all you Texas State students we are right next to the bus line. This complex has very a accommodating staff and I haven't had a problem at all, so what are you waiting for?? Move in today!!

Not Just for College Students
This is a a great place for not only college students but couples and families as well. The units are priced fairly and spacious yet cozy. The management is very accommodating when ever there is a problem. Pet friendly and along the Texas University bus route as well as C.A.R.T.S transportation.
