Perfect Location - Great Compound!

Couldn't have picked a better location! Walking distance to South Congress and next door to quiet neighbors. The house was very clean and comfortable for 8 adults - can't beat that. Check in/out was a breeze, communication was great - no issues whatsoever! Would definitely go back again!

Great house - great location!

We rented this property for a girlfriends' weekend in Austin, TX. Six women stayed comfortably on the property (7 or 8 would be the maximum). The house was spacious, with plenty of amenities - in the main house there is a master upstairs with a large bathroom, and a studio space with a mini-fridge, etc.. The back house has two bedrooms, a kitchen, and bathroom as well. All of the beds were really comfortable with plenty of pillows. There is a really nice sitting area in between the two houses with lounge chairs and a picnic table, and we spent a lot of time out there chatting and hanging out. The best part about the property was the location - you are right off South Congress and can walk to shops and restaurants. It wasn't noisy, though, which was great! Overall, the property was awesome, and we enjoyed our stay,

4 Generation Family Trip

We all had a great time staying here! The location was perfect for everything we had planned. Each family group had privacy when needed, but we also had plenty of space to be together. Great-grandma had the studio bedroom on the main floor. The grandparents (us) had the main bedroom upstairs. The son and daughter-in-law with 2 kids had the back house. The house was clean and had a well-stocked kitchen and pantry. Perfect for us!

Pros and Cons

Overall, the place had its pros and cons. There was plenty of space for four couples to have their own privacy. The main house (and particularly) the master bedroom was very nice - although the master did not have a bedroom door. The remaining guest rooms were slightly out of date / sub quality to the pictures on the website. The location is great and truly can’t beat it. The main problem we faced was a bug infestation, seeing 4+ cockroaches during our visit. The owner / management company was quick to respond and brought pest control immediately (they were generally very responsive, a nice touch); however, the pest control did not resolve the bug problem during our visit. The owners did provide us a 20% discount off a future stay yet that did not solve our current problem with the current living arrangements. We don’t know if we would stay there again with a future 20% discount knowing critters may be roaming the property. Ideally, we would have received a discount off our current stay but unfortunately we were not given one.

Great location in Austin!

Fantastic home in a great location! Walking distance to Congress street! Great shopping and restaurants very close to house! There is a nice patio that separates the main house from the guesthouse. The patio furniture does needs to be cleaned. Lots of debris all over the furniture and was dirty. However we did spend a couple nights under the stars which was lovely! Only other complaint would be to get new hair dryers(master bedroom) Otherwise the house is very clean and has a great kitchen/living area! Beautifully decorated! The master bedroom was gorgeous! Beds were also very comfortable. I would definitely stay here again as it was so nice to be able to walk all over Congress street! Thank you for opening your home! Fabulous stay!

Best house Best location in Austin

Best house in the very best location. Walking distance to all the best restaurants and shops 1 block from South Congress. Ling driveway w lots of parking. Inside the main house was modern updated and very comfortable with everything you need. Loved the huge fun kitchen with the orange stove and the master bedroom shower & cool tub. The studio is off the kitchen and has a kitchenette, bathroom and French doors leading to the fun backyard. The back house has 2 bedrooms and 1 bath which has a cute historic cottage feel. Cant wait to stay here again!

Excellent stay at 204 E. Elizabeth, Austin TX

Our party of 7 reserved the entire compound (Main house, studio and back rooms) and the accommodations were fantastic! The layout of the rooms allows for group enjoyment and privacy. Each section is self-sufficient so each party could enjoy quiet time and we would all meet in the kitchen/living area of the main house for meals and entertainment. The compound had plenty of necessary items for cooking and entertainment so meal prep was stress free. The very short walk to South Congress Avenue gave us easy access to all types of dining, shopping and entertainment. A walk to Lady Bird Lake and the heart of downtown Austin is (maybe) 15 minutes. For major parts of our 6 day stay we didn't need a car which was an added bonus. We can't wait to go back!

Great House in Austin

Had a party of 8 that stayed here in March of 2020. The house is great and there was plenty of room for us all. The separate house out back gave everyone there own privacy. Very well decorated and in a great neighborhood. It is just a couple blocks from Congress so a short walk to everything there. The property mgmt company was very quick to respond to everything we needed. We would definitely stay here again.

Great Austin house for a group in an even better location!

We just had a fantastic long weekend in Austin and one of the best parts was this house! We were a group of 8 (4 couples) and it was so nice for everyone to have their own space but the main gathering areas were perfect for us all to hang out. We didn't want to rent a car which was not a problem because you are literally steps away S. Congress and some awesome shops and restaurants and a short Lyft or Uber to Downtown. All three living areas were very clean and we were pleasantly surprised to find them stocked with seltzer, fresh fruit and pastries, and even wine! We would stay here again and highly recommend it.

Nice place, perfect location

4 couples traveling together to Austin. This was the perfect spot. Tastefully decorated, very clean and comfortable home(s) in a great location. Walking distance to 'SoCo' where we found plenty to keep us occupied. Enjoyed the common areas during the day and it was nice for each couple to have a place to retreat to at night. Really enjoyed the master bedroom - very upscale.

Great house for a group of friends, location is excellent

This house is in a great location, we could walk to many shops, restaurants and music venues, plus we were a short Lyft away from other fun neighborhoods. The neighborhood is quiet, the house was clean and big enough for 4 couples to enjoy the space. The main house had ceiling fans and AC was great. Our host was very responsive and helpful throughout the trip-within minutes we'd get advice by text, and the house was well-equipped for meals and hanging out.

Terrific location; beautiful home

I stayed at this property for a weekend getaway with some friends. It was the absolute perfect location and the house is gorgeous. It has a beautiful open floor plan and is great for groups to cook, eat together, or just hang out. The bedrooms are lovely (especially the master bedroom on the second floor) and the house is well equipped. There were some very nice touches (pastries and a bottle of wine) and the check in/check out procedures were easy with reasonable expectations. I actually live in Austin and will be recommending this place to anyone who comes to visit. It’s wonderful and we very much enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful group of homes in a great location!

A group of friends met in Austin (traveling from various points in Texas) for Thanksgiving and could not be happier with the accommodations! All three units were spotless, and tastefully decorated. The main house is where our group spent most of our time - wonderful kitchen and a large open space for the group. The setup allowed everyone to have their own space at night (back house was 2BR, each with very comfortable Queen Bed; studio had queen bed; Main house had King bedroom upstairs), but we could congregate in the main house during the day. There are tons of bars, shops and restaurants within walking distance (2 blocks off South Congress). If you're traveling with a large group and want to be near downtown, I highly recommend this place!

Beautiful house in a fantastic location

The house was perfect for our family get-away. The house's layout was the perfect balance of common areas to hang out and enough privacy for the multiple couples traveling together. The pictures of the house don't do it justice, it was even prettier in person. It was obviously recently updated (though it seems like the landscaping in the front hasn't been finished yet, which made it easy to track dust inside. But I suspect when that's done it will be as beautiful as the rest of the house). The only thing that we wished the place had was a fire pit in the patio in the back. It was such a great spot to hang out that -- it just seemed like a fire pit would have been an awesome addition. The house is in a perfect location for great restaurants and cute stores, and a short drive to lots of other things that Austin has to offer. I'd definitely stay here again if/when I come back to Austin. It really is a great house.
