Having grown up on Austin, I can say this place is the best we could have hoped for on our visit!
The location is perfect, it's in a lovely downtown district with small houses and tall trees, close to Deep Eddy a lovely spring fed pool at the river, the hike and bike trail and has a uniquely Austin charm. We enjoyed walks to the local restaurants and cafés and downtown.
The house itself is cozy and comfortable with lovely art pieces and turtles out back. It was like staying at a cool relative's place, lots of unique touches.
The hosts Leah and Paula were outstanding and tailored the house to our stay. We couldn't have asked for more!
If you're lucky enough to find this place free, it's well worth a visit!
