A beautiful property with a fantastic location for any need. Whether it was walking to Zilker Park or being able to be on the highway to elsewhere in Austin in under 10 turns, couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay or a host to have!

This was the perfect place for our visit for the MotoGP races at Circuit of the Americas. 25 minute ride to the racetrack. Six of us stayed very comfortably and we would certainly stay here again. Short ride to Sixth Street and other tourist attractions. Love the sunken bath!

The host was very communicative and easy to work with, and the checkout process was smooth and hassle-free. The property is a bit dated, but that was expected given the price range and did not detract from the overall comfort of the stay.

Thank you very much for the wonderful review. Yes, I love that you enjoyed my house so close to downtown. I walk it often. (except maybe in July in cowboy boots). There are also abundant entertaining spots to the east and west. And I’m so glad you liked my house. Have a wonderful holiday season. Kirk

The house worked great for us. It’s a bit funky but clean, comfortable and fantastic location. Owner very friendly and helpful. Would easily stay there again! Lots of places are walking distance and fun neighborhoods to explore

Thank you for the great review. I figure Austin, especially near downtown, is rather funky as well, so I have a sunken bathtub and I have a Wild West bathroom w wooden walls and clawfoot tub. Lots of bamboo and an oak tree growing thru the 2nd story deck. Enjoy your next adventure & thanks for picking my spot! Kirk
