Ted was extraordinarily responsive to every communication & was very accommodating. He provides clear instructions about using everything in the house. He also provides a binder full of excellent information about nearby restaurants, grocery stores, shops, transportation, etc. Lots of local eateries within walking distance. The townhouse looked as pictured. It was clean, rooms were spacious and the 4 adults in our group were easily accommodated. It was great to have private off street parking. Highly recommend this property.

Great Location/Private/Clean

The townhouse was in a great location for accessing downtown, the university area, and south Austin (via rideshares or longer walks). The place was quiet (located in the alley behind the main house), and very clean. Cool spot!

Centrally located townhouse

Great location and easily walkable to the Capitol as well as many coffee and restaurant spots. It was nice to have a designated parking spot and the check in process was very easy. We were never more than a few minutes walk or drive to other places we wanted to visit.

UT - Mom- Daughter Weekend

We loved our visit to Austin! This was, by far, the best place I have stayed in Austin. It is in a GREAT location, spacious and clean. The first floor has cool fabulous big red smooth tile. The hosts were thoughtful and excellent at communicating. It was smooth sailing from the moment we received our confirmation note from Ted and Janelle. It was perfect!

Wonderful stay!

Great location and home. Generous hosts that have provided for all your needs. All the details have been taken care of in the home from soap to coffee filters, etc. Our party of three women felt very safe in this location. We had a rental car but it could be walkable to several areas. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would rent again if we were in Austin.

Perfect Location!

It was only a 2 minute walk to the venue for the wedding we were attending as well as close enough to walk to local restaurants, convenience stores, the Capitol Building and downtown. The house was nicely furnished with a well-stocked kitchen and all the bathroom necessities you may have forgotten. Loved the sprawling oaks in the yard and relaxing with our morning coffee on the porch.

Overall, I rated this property three stars. One star because I’ve never had such good communication with a property owner before. Also, the extra touches were above and beyond such as plenty of extra toilet paper and tissues. And good coffee! Another star because the location was perfect. We came in for the Formula One race and because of this location, we avoided almost all of the hotel shuttle congestion. We also had easy access to a plethora of restaurants. The third star is for the property itself. It was the right size and the right balance of city and suburban living. The -2 stars are because sleep is very important to us and the first night we were awoken by someone yelling and then multiple times by creatures screeching then in the morning by six different trash trucks and then by the business across the street with people leaving their cars and entering business cars so there was constant on and off of the car alarms. All things considered I can’t say for sure whether we would stay here again or not

Great stay!

Loved being close to everything while still being tucked into a peaceful neighborhood! We were in town for a wedding and were less than 2 blocks from Allan House. My elderly parents had no problem walking there and back. We have now gone on a few roadtrips the last couple of years and this was our favorite stay so far. Checking in was a breeze, coffee and the 6 pack in the fridge were a lovely welcoming touch, and communication was easy. We very much enjoyed our stay!

About the host

Hosted by Ted Siff & Janelle Buchanan

Host profile image
We’re Ted, a publisher and parks advocate, and Janelle, a homemaker and actress, and we’ve each called Austin home for over 40 years. We know the neighborhoods, fun spots and beautiful places that make Austin so special, and can answer all your questions about where to find the best margarita, bat viewing, natural swimming hole, barbecue and special night out dining. Interested in music, dance, theatre, or museums? We can guide you to those venues as well.

Why they chose this property

We both chose Austin to go to U.T. But we each chose Austin again to live, work and raise our family. We have grown up as Austin has. Austin is sophisticated but never snooty. You can find world class restaurants and bars, and you can wear your jeans and boots to visit them if you like. Just about any cuisine you prefer is available somewhere in the city, from Tex-Mex to Ethiopian. You can enjoy popular music at the hundreds of clubs around Austin as well as at the top-of-the-line Austin City Limits studio, not to mention the Austin Symphony and Austin Lyric Opera. Oh, and all those festivals: ACL, SXSW, Fun Fun Fun Fest, Moontower Comedy Festival, F-1 racing, and more. If you’re up for a drive, you’re just over an hour away from the Texas Hill Country, with its wineries, beautiful scenery, and German heritage. (Or go an hour east and check out central Texas’ old Czech communities. Have a kolache! Visit the Spoetzel Brewery in Shiner which, during Prohibition, stayed in business by producing near beer plus just a little of the regular kind for “medicinal purposes.”) Diverse? You bet. Friendly? Very.

What makes this property unique

The 11 Oaks Townhouse and its companion, 11 Oaks Suite, are in just about the perfect location – downtown, blocks from some of Austin’s best restaurants and clubs, and walking distance to UT and the Darrel Royal Memorial Stadium, gorgeous hike and bike trails, and great shopping. Because of its proximity to all this plus the Capitol, the Austin Convention Center and the Rio Grande campus of Austin Community College, the neighborhood is bustling during the day but quiet at night. The townhouse is comfortable, warm and welcoming.
