The cottage is ideally located near South Congress. The whole area south the river has great shops, restaurants, bars and music. Angelina and Ian are great hosts and even though they were out of town for our visit, they made sure we had a local contact if needed. We would definitely recommend the cottage and will stay here again when we come to Austin. From South Congress to Lamar and from the rive to route 290 there is a huge variety of things to do. Route 290 gives you easy access to the hill country, the wineries and Luckenbach (go for Saturday night). Remember the Alamo.
