Great oasis
We liked this property! It was a 10-15 minute drive to everywhere we wanted to go. A short walk to an entrance to the path around the lake. Great views of downtown. It was sweet that there were flowers on the table for our anniversary and breakfast foods, fruit, and coffee for us when we arrived. Plenty of towels and toilet paper! I appreciated that Raymond had both recycling and composting.The place was comfortable and well designed. As the listing states, there are stairs to get to the house!

Enchanting property
My plane was extremely late arriving in Austin. I arrived at the property at midnight and Raymond the host greeted me and even carried my luggage to my room. Upon entering the room it looked beautifully decorated and as the listings portrayed. Also the host had left a fruit bowl with apples, tangerines, and grapes. Also English muffins, butter and Nutella. I love everything about this property including onsite parking. I enjoyed the library of unusual books, Koi pond and the unique landscaping. I’ll be back!!

Lovely Stay in a Great Location
We were in Austin for the first football game of the season. The location was fantastic - easy access to SoCo and the path around LBL. We received a warm welcome, along with a bowl of fruit and chocolates, English muffins and fresh ground coffee. The home is thoughtfully designed and incredibly clean. We are looking forward to staying here again!

Perfect little spot
This place suited us perfectly. Very considerately and thoughfully prepared. A little enclave with friendly, welcoming neighbours. Lots of books on a variety of interesting subjects and the house itself has an intersting history. Host was happy to advise about local activities and was courteous and charming.

House is very clean & comfortable, and the hosts were wonderful. The location is great with lots of things close enough to walk to or make a short drive. Loved being able to walk down to the Lady Bird Lake boardwalk in the morning. Would stay again!

perfect neighborhood perfect charm perfect hosts
Raymond and Christy’s home is charming, warm , eclectic. Raymond welcomed us personally and made us feel immediately at home even though it was 11:30 pm due to our flight arrival time The home is a short walk to the river boardwalk for morning runs and easy mile walk to a neighborhood park to see one of the famous Moon towers! If we ever visit Austin again - we will make it a priority to book Raymond’s and Christy’s home again

Visited the state capital, took a tour of Austin City Limits at the Moody Theatre, then attended a concert there. Walked on the Boardwalk along Ladybird Lake. Had beer and brats at Scholz Garten. Raymond and Christy met us when we arrived, and got us settled in. Accommodations were excellent!

This property was amazing! I really enjoyed the courtyard, and even though there are other homes in close proximity it still felt private and secluded. Walking distance to South Congress and the boardwalk was a plus. Would definitely stay here again!

This is a great location for all that you would want to do in Austin. Raymond and Christy were wonderful hosts and quick with any help you may need. We loved the close-by River Walk each morning and the fabulous museums and restaurants all around. If you go hungry in Austin, it's your own fault! Definitely a spot for a return visit!

This 2 room apartment is perfectly as described. Good for a 2 night stay. Location is perfect. Apartment is hard to get to, entrance is down a one lane alley, many steps up and down to get to the apartment.

A perfect spot!
From my first interaction with Laura when booking the property, to getting to meet her and Raymond it was truly a wonderful experience. They are kind, considerate and their wonderful home was such a special spot during our stay. Close to everything you would ever want but nestled into a neighborhood that is simply outstanding. Next time we are in Austin, we will not hesitate to connect again!
