Cherrywood is by far one of Austin's most loved neighborhoods. All of the houses were built in the 30's through the 50's and have been lovingly maintained through the years. Each block is different, so it's super fun to take long walks in the neighborhood. Plus there are loads of fun restaurants, coffee shops, and taco places within walking distance of this house.

This neighborhood is situated just a few blocks from the north side of the University of Texas campus, so it's perfect for stays that include a visit to UT or a concert at the Moody Theatre. In a 4 minute uber ride, you are downtown with tons of nightlife and entertainment options.

This unit includes one off street parking spot behind the house. If you have more than one car, there is plenty of free street parking in front of the house. We recommend walking and taking Ubers as much as possible though beaus this house is super central and in an area that is easy to navigate without a car.

This rental is perfect for UT games, concerts at the Moody Theatre, local music festivals, and anything happening downtown. This is one of the closest neighborhoods to downtown Austin.

Convenient and pet-friendly

The property is conveniently located near downtown, the Capitol, and the Moody center. And it’s pet-friendly, which was great for me and my little fur buddy! I also liked that there was off street parking.The apartment itself is clean and quaint.My only problem was with the keyless entry keypad that doesn’t work very well (at least not getting the first number to work).Also, I didn’t feel very comfortable walking my dog alone at night because it is located right by the highway and it felt like an empty slightly eerie neighborhood,

Cozy and quiet

Loved the fuzzy rug in the bedroom. Place was full of livable charm and unique decor that made it feel personal and taken care of. Very quiet and serene space to spend a few days. Would've stayed longer if schedule and budget permitted. Only improvements would've been more workable kitchen and drying racks/hooks for towels in the bathroom. An easy fix so guests don't need to hang wet towels on doors, cupboards or chairs. Pans were also quite worn and I wasn't comfortable cooking with due to chipping. Drying rack for dishes also needed badly, but a quick fix. We used the hand towel to place clean dishes on.
