Fun area. Only 3 min walk to S Congress food and shops. Nice house for trip with friends! For safety on the glass doors, we suggest adding inside door locks not accessible by the reused digital lock and keys.

When they say this property is close to SoCo- it is CLOSE. We barely got in our car the entire week. There was so much to walk to, see and do. The neighborhood is charming and quiet, a great place to visit with kids. The property itself was as described. And despite the requirement to park on the street, the very friendly neighbor emerged as soon as we checked in to offer us a driveway spot. Minor nits: we had booked this property for Thanksgiving and intended to cook but found the kitchen gear less than the "gourmet kitchen" description in the listing. The knives were dull, and there was little in the way of equipment (blender, food processor, etc). Perfect, though for simple meals. We ended up eating out for Thanksgiving which saved us time anyway. When we arrived, I searched my email for "VRBO" and instructions to check-in. Not finding any, I emailed the host. They responded in minutes. Their name is "Guest Spaces," and the email does not reference VRBO so you need to search for an email with that name.

Wonderful House and a Short Walk from Everything
We walked all over Austin from this location and always returned to a cool and comfortable house. I forgot my prescription glasses out the house and they have been slow to respond in getting them returned, but that is my fault more than anyone's. Shouldn't have left them! The house could also use some board games and the TV channels are limited, but we were there for Austin and not the TV. Great, clean and charming!

Everything was great about the property! Location was exceptional! My only criticism would be the parking situation… There were at least two spaces in the driveway to the house, but we were instructed we had to park in the street with an Austin ParkIng permit.

Clean, spacious house on a quiet, tree-lined street only 2 blocks away from one of the best neighborhoods in Austin. Plenty of spots nearby for breakfast in the morning, and the Continental Club was open until 2am for live music every night. Excellent spot for housing 5 friends.

We had a great visit to Austin. The house was very clean and comfortable. Everything worked well. The only minor issue was the towel situation was a little skimpy. Otherwise the location was awesome, near Congress St. Lots of great restaurants and bars nearby. We definitely recommend this property.

Great house. Very clean and plenty of room. We enjoyed coffee on the patio. Board games on the high top table in the evening. Loved the close walk to SoCo! Plenty of shopping and yummy restaurants. We also enjoyed our walk to Lady Bird Lake. The neighborhood is so quiet and safe. We never heard a sound! Great home for a group. Close walks and quiet nights. Thank you.

Outstanding location 700 ft from endless fun in one direction and a great little park for your AM run in the other. The property is well built and has a perfect patio for your morning coffee (basket brewer). Was able to make a meal one night for the group. The knifes were adequate and the kitchen had all the basics.
