About this property

The Blueberry Cottage in South Austin

Austin has become one of the more popular cities to visit in America. We live in the hot bed of music, food and fun. South Austin is trending in a major way as it's just 15 minutes from the airport, 10 minutes from Lady Bird Lake and downtown Austin. 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.

Come stay in the Blueberry Cottage for a real ‘South Austin’ atmosphere.

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.

Peace & Quiet In S. Austin

Wonderful little cottage tucked away in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood. I stayed during the week, and it was the perfect place to escape while still being close to everything the city has to offer. Pearl the dog is a real sweetheart too! Highly recommend.

Great little place!

This property was exactly as listed. Very clean and comfortable. There were even a few drinks in the fridge! I brought my dog and he got along well with the cat and dog that live there. It was easy to catch an Uber to Rainey St. Would stay again!

I loved this house for a long weekend getaway in Austin. The location was convenient, the owner was amazing and very accommodating. 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!

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!

Such a gem

I had a great time staying here! The host was very responsive and friendly. When I checked in, the first thing I noticed was that it smelled great! It had everything I needed and was a great location for a quick trip to Austin, but I especially loved the cool charm and decor - definitely would book again if I’m back in the area!

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.

Everything we needed

Communication was straight forward and the house is easy to find. We didnt spend a lot of time there as we travelled for F1 and were at COTA most of our visit, but the bed was comfy and she had everything we needed - comfortable and clean overall. Highly recommend

1 night in Austin

This was just a quick stop-over. Loved the space, it was just right. Everything worked as it should, and the space was very clean. Host even had some refreshments in the fridge. Pearl (the Wonder Dog?) gave us a friendly welcome. Just a few blocks off Congress Ave, which is full of restaurants and bars. Not walking distance, but an easy drive there and back. Great stay.
