My partner and I booked this place for one reason: to carve out a little peace and quiet on the cusp of the new year. Jon-Marc & Gigi's home's not only met that need, it exceeded it. The photos speak well to the design of the space—which is really, really beautifully done—but not to how cozy it is, nor how remote it feels despite being an easy drive into Austin proper. My recommendation: book this property for at least a few nights. You cat at Fonda San Miguel your first night and then buy groceries to cook or grill on the second night. When you're not eating, you can be forgiven for otherwise staying in and enjoying the amenities while taking in the silence of the woods all around you. (Speaking of amenities, the mattress is wonderful, the heated toilet seat is life-changing, the kitchen and grill and Nespresso machine are greatly appreciated.)
This was a seriously wonderful way to spend the last few days of 2019. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.
