You found it! This is THE SPOT where you and your fellow travelers want to stay.
Experience Austin’s electric energy in this luxe East Austin estate, just half a mile from legendary Rainey Street and downtown. Stroll to trendy restaurants and iconic honky-tonks like The White Horse!
Your stay in Austin will be perfect with this gorgeous home.
All reservations INCLUDE both houses on the estate and private pool.
The front one-story main house has three bedrooms (two king bedrooms, and a bunk room with four XL twin beds and two regular twins) and three and a half baths (each bedroom has an en-suite bath). This home accommodates 10 people max per city code. The back two-story house has two bedrooms (two queen) and two full baths. This home accommodates 6 people max per city code. All of the mattresses are memory-foam and are lavished with cozy sheets and down and/or down-alternative pillows.
The living room in the main house has a 65" flat screen TV, the comfiest couch you've ever sunk into, and three sets of patio doors looking out onto the pool. The chef's kitchen is a dream for anyone who loves (or likes) to cook. It has all the amenities one could ask for like a 48" Monogram range with a double oven and griddle, a Sub Zero refrigerator, a wine fridge, a pullout drawer microwave, blender, and coffee maker. It is stocked full of quality accessories from brand new pots and pans all the way to a lemon zester and a meat thermometer.
The back house has its own full kitchen to boast about, loaded with all the amenities and high-end appliances like Sub Zero refrigerator and freezer drawers. It also has it's own full-size washer and dryer and a 55' flat screen TV on the first floor. The two bedrooms are upstairs, with the master (and en-suite bathroom) overlooking the backyard and pool.
The LOCATION is PERFECT. We are walkable to downtown and an eighth of a mile to Rainey St and the Austin Convention Center. We are also just a few blocks from the lake, so it's super easy to grab your running shoes or a B-Cycle and hop on the ten-mile hike and bike trail which loops around the core of the city. There are a ton of amazing restaurants nearby and our favorite high-end, The Quality Grocery store is right down the street. Only a fifteen-minute ride from the airport, you'll be in our amazingly beautiful, tree-canopied neighborhood in no time!

The house is newly updated and absolutely gorgeous, and very clean. The hosts were great and communicative, and very helpful. Everything is a short Uber ride away, and Rainey street is within walking distance. I would definitely recommend this property.

This was probably the best house I’ve ever rented for a bachelorette group. 12 girls, plenty of space, very clean, and the host was super responsive! Loved our trip to Austin.
