Michelle's Guest House was just as we expected from the photos, beautiful and well designed. We loved her and her family too, so welcoming and friendly, as well as accommodating and communicative. The house was great - bright, simple, modern, cozy and well equipped. We were also provided with organic coffee and half/half and even mrs. Meyers dish soap! We really enjoyed the bonus piano. We had great weather (70's) to enjoy the decks and the hammock in the yard. We also had a chance to light up the fireplace few nights when the temps were as wintery as they should be in January. The neighborhood was great too - so many options - we saw a play a block down at the Vortex and drinks at the Butterfly, checked out art at Flatbed, breakfast tacos two blocks away, and spent a lot of time at in.gredients also close by for playtime for our son and healthy snacks and occasional grocery items. Salty Sow and Eastside Cafe are really close too. We had access to other play areas for our son walking distance and driving to other Austin 'fun' were easy from here - like hiking Barton Creek Greenbelt, Childrens' Museum, or checking out SoCo. The grocery options were good too, Wheatsville coop, Central Market and Whole Foods all within reasonable distances. The dogs, Parker and Ralph, were sweet and made us feel safe in a cool eclectic neighborhood. We stayed for three weeks and look forward to coming back next time in Austin!
