I was absolutely amazed at how close this place was to everything we needed to do in Austin. We had a wedding at the Brodie Homestead, and this was just down the road. Groceries were close by, doughnuts were close by, shops and entertainment were close by...and in just a few minutes you could be downtown or at the airport.
The offstreet parking was great, but there was also room on the side street for two other vehicles. Neither of the streets next to the house were particularly busy. So we did not have to hunt for parking or feel like we had taken someone else's spot. The neighborhood was quiet.
The house itself had great features, and everything we needed. Well designed interior with great art and with great colors, it made a great backdrop for casual photos. The storage closet was stocked with things that might come in handy, like a spare comforter, a high chair, some extra pillows. The kitchen had some tea and all the incidentals you might forget to pick up at the store. There was room to spread out and enjoy the weather. The front porch was a great backdrop for some photos. The living/dining area was large enough we could all hang out there and enjoy some time together.
I'd highly recommend it and would easily rent it again if it is available the next time we travel to Austin.
