About this property

Zilker Park Townhome (A Barton Springs Oasis)

Zilker Park Place is a multicolored two-story townhouse jam-packed with original art and loaded with all the modern amenities. Wake up in a comfy bed and head just around the corner to Barton Springs for a swim or Zilker Park for a morning jog, then cook a meal in the fully-equipped kitchen.

Located on a quiet street in 78704, which is one of the city's best neighborhoods. It's a two block walk to Barton Springs pool, botanical gardens, Zilker Park, hiking trail, food trucks and restaurants.
The space
*One of the coolest places in Austin. Feels good. Looks good. Art and color every where.
*Exceptional Garden. Best one in the neighborhood.
*Quiet two story townhome that is part of a four-plex on a very quiet street.
* One comfy King bed upstairs with a full bath.
* Half bath downstairs and fold out queen (with memory foam found in downstairs closet)
*Fish Tank Toilet
*Washer/Dryer
*Kitchen set up for gourmet cooking
*Patio with grill
*Stay for a night or for several months
*All photos in space taken by me

Monthly and weekly prices available at non special event times. Please ask for pricing.
Guest access
You can arrive any time you like 4 PM or later. There is a lock on the door with a code. When you receive the itinerary from VRBO it will include the code for the door.
Other things to note
There is a book on the coffee table with everything you will need to know about the space. You will also find an entire book of restaurant suggestions and other info. I highly recommend a car while in Austin. Public transportation is about one mile from the space.

Nice Stay

We rented a car for our Austin stay and the location of the townhouse was great for all of our activities. Kitchen met our daily breakfast and coffee needs, and the patio was great for a morning read. Would stay again.

About the host

Hosted by Lois Goodman

Host profile image

This is me in one of my five art cars I have had since 1999. My current car is Mermania, a mermaid car. I have been a professional intuitive since 1993 and have been teaching intuition classes since 1995. Presently I hold dating workshops and relationship support groups throughout the year. Somehow over the years I have become a relationship expert and have yet to find a question that I can’t answer. I enjoy local theatre and the film festivals. I live in the neighborhood less than a mile from the rental. I am known for having one of the most colorful houses in this very eclectic neighborhood. The yard has been featured on the local yard art tour and the house had been on the Weird homes tour five times. The art car pictured above is my fourth. It is “Carsmos” which is decorated with a sea theme, the solar system, the city of Austin, and the different regions of earth on the hood. I am the female in the photo and my life partner is the male, who is also an artist. We have travelled a bit (mostly the U.S. and Europe) and the photos throughout the rental are ours. Color makes me feel alive and the color in the rental and in our photography is a reflection of that passion. My motto is “if there is still twenty minutes, there is time to see a museum”. Having studied art history and gone on four art history tours of Europe, I have been fortunate to have seen some of the very best European Masters and some of the greatest museums in the world. I couldn’t be happier.

What makes this property unique

The location, the unique furnishings, the art and all the color make my space special. Also for an apartment/condo, it is very large (950 sq ft). The kitchen is well stocked because I cook. I stocked it with everything I have to have on a daily basis. If there is something you need not there, please tell me.
