Amazing find
My wife and I stayed at this property for the CapTex triathlon with our two older dogs. The house is a guest house behind the main property and is a really beautiful two story spot. The property owners were the nicest people and shared with us recommendations of places to go check out for food and were great to chat with while taking the dogs in the backyard. The location is really easy to get to anything off Lamar as well as Congress and is in a quiet neighborhood that we felt very comfortable in. We would definitely stay here again when in Austin.

Great time again
This was the second stay at this property for my wife and I and, like last year, we had a terrific time! The property is clean, well-appointed, and quiet. The location is ideal for south Austin and downtown Austin activities. Communication with our host was easy and Scott was courteous and helpful. We are already looking forward to next year's visit!

Wonderful stay in South Austin!
This is our second time staying at Scott and Cindy's place and we will definitely stay again whenever we return to Austin. The house is so comfortable, has nice windows but privacy and our dogs love it too. Our dogs even have their own little yard area. Scott and Cindy are great hosts. We love chatting with them and seeing their cute dogs! The house is in a great neighborhood for walking and close to so many great restaurants and coffee shops. We were so comfortable leaving in our dogs in the unit when we ventured out. The unit is contemporary and so nicely decorated and equipped with great appliances. Thanks for a great stay!

Central location for all your Austin adventures! Clean, comfortable & has everything you need for your stay. Yard is perfect for your furry family members and a great spot to chill. We will be sure to stay again when we are in town. Scott is a great host, responsive & welcoming. The small touches and little details didn't go unnoticed, well decorated & a great layout.

Hospitable Stay
We enjoyed our stay! The home has everything needed and is beautifully designed. Hosts were hospitable and available if we needed anything. There is a main sleeping loft space with a huge new bathroom. There is an additional private sleeping area (futon) available in the study with it’s own half bath. The hosts kindly set up the futon for us since we needed both sleeping areas. There is also a nice outdoor space in the back with lighting and seating. Lots of comfortable options to gather and relax. Wifi was good too.
