Retreat in Bouldin Creek | Walkable to restaurants

Summary:
South Austin is marked by relaxed neighborhoods offering visitors a dynamic mix of urban and suburban vibes, and Austin’s Cozy Corner in the eclectic Bouldin Creek area is no different.

The Space:
You’ll still be just moments from the bustling downtown lined with dining, nightlife, art, and live music while being able to find peace and privacy away from it all when it suits you. Located on a corner lot, this updated 2-bedroom home puts you within a short distance to several well-known Austin establishments such as Barton Springs and Zilker Park, and within walking distance to a variety of delicious local restaurants, boutique shopping, cafés, art galleries, and entertainment options along South Lamar and South 1st Street. When you’re not out and about exploring, you’ll love hanging out in the home’s spacious, fenced-in backyard, an ideal spot to enjoy a beverage or a meal under the plentiful Texas sun.

The fresh and modern indoors are a perfect blend of comfort and style, with décor and furnishings carefully curated to maximize your downtime. Take a seat on the living room sofa or in cushy armchairs as you stream episodes of your favorite shows on the mounted smart TV. Large picture windows illuminate the space in natural light, also setting a quiet scene for enjoying the pages of a new book. The glamorous kitchen showcases stainless steel appliances, glossy countertops, and sleek cabinetry stocked with all the cookware and dining ware you need to whip up delicious meals right at home.

This home comfortably sleeps 6 guests between 2 private bedrooms and a queen size sleeper sofa in the living room.

Bedroom #1 includes a king size bed and a smart TV.

Bedroom #2 includes 2 twin beds.

The home also includes 2 full guest bathrooms, the first including a single vanity and glass walk-in shower and the second a single vanity and shower/tub combo.

THINGS TO NOTE:
• Washer and dryer in home.
• Street parking available for 2 vehicles.
• This home is equipped with a Ring camera system monitoring the front entrance.

The property is located in a quiet neighborhood in south Austin, minutes from surrounding restaurants, cafes, and landmarks. The area is diverse and holds the authenticity that Austin is so proud of. You’ll be within easy reach of Austin’s popular attractions like the Texas State Capitol, Congress Bridge Bats, and the Greetings from Austin Mural. Zilker Park offers access to paddle board and kayak rentals, and central Lady Bird Lake and nature trails boast a two-mile loop perfect for exercise or a relaxing stroll. Be sure to visit the live music bars and clubs on 6th street, a part of Downtown Austin that earned the city the nickname of “Live Music Capitol of the World.”

We absolutely loved our stay at this charming 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home. We were in town Thursday through Tuesday for the F1 race, and the property was the perfect base for our family (two adults and our 7-year-old).The location is unbeatable—truly walkable to the fantastic shops and restaurants on South Congress (SoCo). With a few restaurants a little closer too!Inside, the house offered plenty of room for all of us, and the amenities were excellent. The A/C was strong and kept us cool all week, which was a huge relief in the Austin heat. Plus, having the in-unit laundry was incredibly helpful for our extended trip. Highly recommend this place for comfort, space, and a premium Austin location!

This is a great little house in the perfect quiet location. The few issues we had were immediately addressed by the management company. I thought the street parking may be an issue but this street is so quiet that this was not an issue. We would definitely stay here again.

Cozy Home for Austin Getaway

Overall, we really enjoyed this property and would stay here again. The location was perfect and close to Barton Springs, Parmer Events Center, restaurants, and shopping. The street parking was great and the house had plenty of room, nice finishings and furnishings. The property management company was very responsive and communicated throughout the stay. A few things we did notice that should be addressed. The smoke detectors were disconnected and wires were hanging down. The hair dryer was broken and needs to be replaced or bring your own. This is wasp season, but there were a lot of nests around the house. The "yard" was a little unkept and had lots of weeds. The house does not have a dining table or bar stools which made eating meals difficult. We never noticed when looking at pictures that there were no table or chairs, but we made it work even though it was difficult to eat meals with the family. The air conditioner worked but did struggle on the 100 degree days, but cooled down in the evenings. There is a close train track, but didn't notice the noise much when inside.

Great tucked away spot near everything!

This cute little house is tucked away in a quiet corner of trendy Bouldin Creek, near the greenway. It's walking distance to South Congress and not too far from Zilker Park and other great Austin spots. It was clean and very comfortable, with all the necessities. Perfect for my husband and me, along with my mother. Thank you for making everything easy!

Clean, Simple, and Convenient

Had a nice stay at Cozy Corner with my daughter during SXSW. Property was clean, modern, and simple - all we needed for a few days in town. Location was great for cheap Ubers just about anywhere we wanted to go in the city. Property managers quick to respond to small issue (no towels when we arrived). Drawbacks were proximity to train tracks and construction on neighboring houses. - very loud. They also need to address some small details in the house (no night stands or dresser in upstairs room, tv wires hanging down walls, etc). Overall a good property though.
