Lucy's guest house is an absolute gem. It's the perfect location (seems to be the most desirable place to live in Austin too). It's JUST outside the city. We used electric scooters and walked everywhere and the occasional Uber (did not rent a car, although there's a private driveway for the guesthouse if you do). Right off South 1st there were several restaurants and places to check out and Congress runs parallel with many as well. We came for a week: one day at ACL and one day at a UT game. We did plenty of other things in the city too like breweries, massage, nature walks, and general adventures. If you're OK with walking, it's relatively close to Barton Springs. The home itself was beautiful and modern! The perfect spot in Austin: very close to the city but still very green and nature-like with a creek running in the back. The home was quiet and very clean. It was such a lovely place to stay and we will absolutely be back! I cannot say how much we loved Austin and loved this home.
