About this property

Gorgeous East Central Austin 2BD Close to Downtown

If you're searching for a place thats walkable, quiet, and private while also being walking distance to downtown nightlife - you've found it! The location is excellent with easy access to Campus and Downtown and entertainment districts on Red River St. or East 6th St. The house is very close to the Rosewood Neighborhood Park and Boggy Creek Greenbelt, which has a pool, splash pad and trails.

Our home is a beautiful private 2 bedroom house close to the Frank Erwin Center, UT Baseball stadium, UT football stadium, and downtown Austin. It also hosts a large TV - perfect for rainy days. The house fits 4 people comfortably between 2 bedrooms, one of which is a queen bed and the other is a full size bed.

Work from home or keep the family entertained with high speed wifi and a large smart TV. Stream your favorites on Netflix, Disney+, Hulu, ESPN+ and more!

Here are some distances to major attractions from the rental:
Closest BBQ (Sam's BBQ) - 0.2 miles
Closest bar (King Bee Lounge, Full Circle Bar, Rio Rita) - 0.3 miles
6th St. - 0.9 miles
Texas State Capitol - 1.4 miles
UT Stadium - 1.5 miles
Convention Center - 1.9 miles
South Congress Shopping - 2.0 miles
Lady Bird Lake 2.0 miles
Zilker Park/Barton Springs - 4.3 miles
Austin Airport - 10.8 miles
It's also two blocks from one of the few remaining famous Austin Moonlight Towers.

Guests will have access to the entire space as well as the close by Rosewood Neighborhood Park, which has a pool and splash pad (both only open during the summer).

If you need recommendations, we'll be available to provide them otherwise you'll have complete privacy. We'll provide you with access information before you arrive, so you'll have super quick and easy entry.

After booking you'll be provided a link where you can purchase upgrades to your booking such as early check-in and late check-out, additional cleanings, and more that will make your Austin experience even better!

We don't charge a security deposit! Where many hosts charge over $500, and where you as the guest risk them not returning your deposit – Austin Vacay remains guest-centric by charging a one-time, non-refundable fee (already included in your booking price) which provides up to $750 of coverage towards unintentional rental property damages (subject to plan terms and conditions). This means a lower cost to book, and because accidents happen, protection against costly charges. Plan terms and conditions provided by request after booking.

Austin Vacay is proud to be able to service Austinites and travelers during these uncertain times. We have taken extra precautions to care for our guests and employees by introducing zero contact entry, enhanced cleaning protocols, and strict covering requirements for employees. We encourage our guests to review Texas and Austin’s travel guidelines and restrictions before making a reservation. We must work together to ensure a safe environment for everyone that enters our properties.

Located in East Austin, this vibrant and eclectic neighborhood is known for its unique artistic flair and cultural diversity. A hub for creativity, the area boasts an array of art galleries, music venues, and trendy eateries that showcase Austin's unique character. The nearby outdoor spaces, like parks and biking trails, contribute to the lively urban environment. This part of Austin is also close to downtown, making it convenient for both work and play. From food truck parks to specialized boutiques, the area provides a variety of attractions that cater to diverse tastes and interests, reflecting the dynamic spirit of the city.

Scooters (Lime & Bird) as well as Lyft and Uber are the best ways to get around Austin, especially this close to everything. However, there are also a lot of public transportation options in this area (see CapMetro's website).
We have security cameras outside of our property at the entrances for added security and your peace of mind. We do not have any cameras inside, respecting our guests' privacy.
1) No smoking allowed (of any kind) ($350 fine)
2) No loud noises after 10 PM per city ordinance
3) No events or parties
4) No pets allowed
5) The cleaning that you pay for is to clean the home prior to your stay. If you do not pick up after yourself sufficiently when you check out, you may be charged an additional cleaning fee - price depends on how long it takes to clean up after you. We don't expect you to scrub the home, but simply pick up your trash and put everything where you found it
6) Minimum age requirement is 25
7) If you do not check out on time (11AM) you will be charged an additional night
8) Please see the House Manual emailed to you a few days before your stay

Capitol Day

This spot was 1.5 miles from the Capitol in a nice suburban area, great for walking and running. Quiet neighborhood with little traffic. The house was great and was exactly what I was looking for. Only area for improvement: I had to enter the backdoor, the frontdoor had a different keyless entry system so the door code didn't work up front. Easy work workaround though.

Nice landing pad

The property is as described. It's clean, well equipt and located within short distance (by ride share or single bus) to most areas of Austin. There are some restaurants within walking distance such as Hillside Farmacy (23 minute walk) and a lovely breakfast/lunch spot across the street from that but for the most part, we found we were taking lyft more often than usual. We used it as a landing pad for our adventures. We used it for sleeping and for resting in between daytime adventures and evening/night adventures. It was nicely air conditioned and the beds were comfortable. As I said, it was a great landing pad.

Cute, minimal modern house

This was the perfect launch pad for activities in East Austin and beyond. Small but efficient and nicely decorated with super comfy beds. Easy to find quiet neighborhood. A public pool within walking distance was a bonus.

Clean and Quiet

This little house was perfect for us. My top 2 needs in a rental are cleanliness and quietness and this was 100% both. It’s remodeled very nice and modern but still has some old charm to it. The bed was super comfortable also. I’m typically a firm bed kind of gal, but this was so soft and cozy.

My stay in Austin was great. The house was in a great location close to downtown and the fast growing East Side. The house itself is nicely appointed and charming. It had everything I needed for a fun stay. Bring friends! There’s a second bedroom!
