Nicole and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Dan’s place. For our first trip to Austin, it was a great way to experience city life without the noise and commotion of being among the large downtown buildings. The unit was comfortable for the two of us, with a fully functional kitchen down stairs and living, sleeping and bathroom upstairs. A pleasant treat was the very spacious deck off the living area. Nestled in the trees it provided an experience of being in a tree house. Each day I was out there enjoying my morning coffee, mesmerized by the beautiful chickens pecking away at their day. Though the traffic on Guadalupe St was suppressing busy, we were only on the sidewalk for a few minutes before arriving at unique local eateries and watering holes.
We found that a short Uber ride put of right in to the thick of the city hustle and bustle. Our favorite downtown spot was Rainey St, a neighborhood comprised of restaurants that ware tastefully converted from craftsman homes. When looking for outdoor activities, only 4 miles away was Barton Springs in Zilker Park. We found plenty to do their while enjoying the city landscape, such as kayaking, biking and walking the beautiful park.
Looking forward to getting back there and enjoying more time with those wonderful chickens!
