AMAZING HOUSE - Simply Perfect

We were a bachelor party of 12 and could not have asked for a better house for the weekend. Saved a ton of money on Ubers with the most popular restaurants and bars in Austin all a 5 to 20 min walk (Rainey, East 6th, Dirty 6th). The house was SPOTLESS, with tons of beds and baths for a very comfortable weekend. Thank you so much for everything!!!

Austin TX get a way

Wow! Is the best way to describe this home. Perfectly located to all the fun and walkable to Franklin BBQ. Came with family for birthday weekend. The home was emasculate. Huge kitchen where we made breakfast our first morning. Enjoyed the second floor patio on the evening for a nightcap. Our host went over and beyond at checkin. Happen to run into her and welcomed us with open arms. We plan on coming back next year and will for sure be booking here. A true hidden gem.

Couldn't ask for a better spot in Austin. The house is close to all the various neighborhoods in the city, so its an easy car, scooter or bike ride to get to where you need to go. And there was plenty of indoor/outdoor space for our group of 10 who were in town for a long weekend!

Awesome Central Location

This house was great for our group of 10. Spacious and very clean. The location is perfect for getting around Austin, and there is a good amount in walking distance (highly recommend Paperboy for brunch). There is a big construction project going on across the street, but it did not disturb us too much.

Great location, great property, great service. Would stay again

Location is amazing as it's in East Austin which has many cool restaurants, shops and bars within a few min walk. Downtown is also very accessible by a short scooter, cab or 15 min walk. The property was amazing, very functionality and came with all the amenities. Definitely would stay again.

Great for Large Groups and Perfect Location!

I was planning a trip for 8 people and wanted to pick a spot that could sleep everyone comfortably, I couldn't have picked a better spot. Between the hospitality from the property manager and the proximity it was from everything, it filled our every need. The house was super accessible for both entertaining and sleeping everyone in our group comfortably. It was walking distance from some of the major streets in Downtown Austin and also amazing BBQ. I was also really impressed by the quality of the house from the furnishing to the linens. They also made sure that every detail was covered and that there were plenty of amenities available to cater to our groups basic needs. I would highly recommend this rental and will be looking to rebook in the coming years.

This was a great property for my friends and I during my bachelor party. Keypad on the main door makes it easy to enter/exit for the entire group. Plenty of beds/bathrooms for all 9 of us to comfortably sleep and get ready without being on top of each other. Would definitely recommend!

Highly recommend this house

We rented the house for a bachelor party. It was perfect. The upstairs terrace was great for relaxing with a few cocktails before we went out. The house was clean, roomy, and the beds were comfortable. The property manager, Amber, made sure we had everything we needed, and responded to all of our questions immediately. We will be using the service again in the future. Our stay could not have gone better.

Absolutely Awesome House and Hostess!

We had a group of 10 of us for my brothers bachelor party. This was our first trip to Austin and from the moment I contacted Amber with interest in the house she was there to answer all questions very quickly! She provided a list of restaurants, attractions and areas to visit. Even when we were in Austin she checked in to see if I had any questions and gave us more recommendations and when I reached out to contact her with anything she answered promptly, she was an incredible hostess! The location of this house is PERFECT!!!! Located literally right down the street from the world famous Franklin BBQ, which was amazing! There is a CVS pharmacy across the street where we could get any general groceries/supplies. It is also a 10 minute walk to famous 6th Street with tons of bars and restaurants and you can get a quick Fasten (Austins Uber) ride to Rainey St, South Congress etc within 5 minutes! The house itself is incredible! Only a few years old, very clean, all new appliances and very spacious! There was plenty of beds, bathrooms, and room for everyone and the porch can not be beat! I would recommend this house to anyone looking for the perfect location when visiting Austin! Our whole group could not stop talking about how great the house was and how much fun we had because we were so close to everything. We would absolutely book this house again next trip! Thank you for an unforgettable Austin experience!!!

About the host

Hosted by Amber Carroll

Host profile image
My name is Amber Carroll, I am the property manager of both of the Artale's vacation rentals. I was born and raised in Austin, so I have seen our city grow tremendously over the years. I lived in New York City for 5 years and that was an amazing experience, but there is something special about Austin's laid back lifestyle that brought me home. I love this city and look forward to assisting you with your vacation. Please let me know if you need any suggestions on restaurants, bars, activities, shopping, and more!

Why they chose this property

Location, Location, Location! Enjoy the convenience of walking downtown and the view from the 2nd floor balcony! I love sharing a bottle of wine with my friends from the balcony and checking out the skyline view! Such a relaxing place to sit and catch up! One of my most favorite parts of Downtown East Austin is that you can walk out the door and find coffee shops, eclectic shopping and some of the best local dining spots that Austin has to offer. Unlike central downtown, you are immersed in a locals neighborhood without the tourist feel, but with all of the Austin vibes.

What makes this property unique

10 minutes from the Airport! Start your vacation immediately and don't waste the time commuting! Some of the best restaurants in Austin are just 2 blocks away. This house sleeps 10 comfortably while being able to enjoy your friends and family under 1 roof! Open floor plan accommodates large groups!
