Austin has become one of the more popular cities to visit in America. We live in the hot bed of music, food and fun.

The house is walking/biking distance to iconic spots, grocery stores, theaters and dining -- without the hassle of finding parking or battling much traffic. Tucked away behind the main house, the guesthouse cottage offers a big fenced in back yard area as well.

Quiet Comfortable Place in Austin

Super quiet, cute place tucked away in Austin. Everything was clean, immaculately put together and within close driving distance of everywhere you’d need to go in Austin, but hidden away from any of the bustling areas. Definitely would recommend, really great place.

The house was decorated very well, was spotless and we were so grateful that there were a few snacks and drinks in the kitchen when we arrived. We would love to return!

Quiet peaceful stay

Needed a dog friendly place to stay with my partner and son for a quick work trip and this place checked all the boxes. It was a peaceful little getaway with everything just a short drive away. It was very convenient and easy access along with a nice quiet neighborhood to walk around. I’d say ideal for couples or a single person traveling. The neighborhood made everything feel very safe and comfortable.

Great location

My wife and I were visiting Austin to attend the MotoGP races at COTA. This is our second trip here to see the races. Blueberry cottage is the perfect spot to stay. It’s got everything you need for your visit. Great access to the track and also to the attractions in the city without the noise and traffic of downtown hotels. Peaceful and quiet at night. In my opinion, superior to a hotel stay.

Parking is a bonus

The casita was fully equipped with all the amenities you’d want! Emily has a classic car as well, so she understood my need for off the street parking. I’ll be booking her place again!
