Andy and Ellen offer a comfortable cottage for two in a quiet neighborhood a mile or two north of downtown and the university. For me, because I was visiting a biking brother, the highlight of the cottage was the selection of bikes to choose from. Andy fitted me out with a perfect bike that I used pretty much every day and loved. Austin has plenty of bike lanes and bike paths, and Andy had a map for me that showed the best routes. I was there in early February. The weather was crazy, but I'm happy to say both the functions of the cottage's heater/air conditioner worked fine.
