Just 10 minutes to South Congress, Downtown, and East Austin means you’re a short ride away from the hustle and bustle of everything Austin has to offer.

Nice and comfortable place to stay.

We enjoyed staying at this property. I grew up near this area, so I was very familiar with everything there. The house was clean and comfortable. The backyard is very nice as well. The hostess was quick to respond to any inquiries. We would stay there again if available.

Thoughtful details

We enjoyed a very pleasant stay. This house maximized value for 3 bedrooms. We loved all the thoughtful amenities stocked around the House. Every time I thought of something I wish I had packed, I discovered the homeowners were one step ahead of me and already had it set out!
