My friend and I stayed at the house for four nights in March and we were genuinely sad to leave. The cottage is lovingly restored and just as it appears in the pictures. What you can't see are all the nice touches; fluffy towels, shampoo & creme rinse in the shower, bottles of Coke and seltzer in the fridge, and much more. The shower has great pressure and the mattress is very comfortable. This cottage gets a ten for comfort!
The surrounding neighborhood is in transition with many houses under construction. The main house on the property is also being renovated but the crew was very considerate and friendly. The path along the side of the house is easy to navigate and well lit with automatic lights on sensors. The access to the house is a keypad lock with a combo set by the owner.
There are a number of great places to eat nearby. We loved Paper Boy, a food truck on 11th, and also the Quickie Pickie, which has a great cross-section of foods, brews and coffees. Uber and Lyft both operate in Austin and there were always cars close by. The longest wait we had was 5 minutes.
The owners have also created a great guide to fun places, which is in the cottage. All in all it was a wonderful stay.
