About this property

Gorgeous Home in Heart of Zilker with Full Kitchen

Nestled in the heart of Austin's iconic Zilker neighborhood, our spacious and stylish retreat offers the perfect balance of urban thrill and homey comfort. With some of Austin's most talked-about attractions – Barton Springs Pool, Zilker Park, and Zilker Botanical Gardens – merely a leisurely stroll away, our 900-square-foot sanctuary positions you right where the action is.

We have an expansive 360 tour of this space - check it out by scanning the QR code in the image gallery. You can use the floor plan or the navigation bar at the bottom to explore the house. Also, if you go to an outdoor space, look up, and click the cloud with the arrow, then you will also get a tour of Austin! Enjoy!

Step inside to a living space meticulously crafted for both relaxation and entertainment. Whether you're dialing into a work call or diving deep into a movie marathon, our large smart TV, coupled with high-speed Wi-Fi, ensures you're always in tune. Get spoiled for choice with streaming options spanning Netflix, Disney+, Hulu, ESPN+, and a plethora of others.

Unleash your culinary flair in our expansive kitchen, equipped with every modern amenity you might crave, from a dishwasher to a dedicated drink fridge. Savor your creations at the dining table set for four or opt for a laid-back vibe at the bar seating.

The two beautifully adorned bedrooms promise rejuvenation, each featuring plush queen beds swathed in custom luxury hotel linens. Freshen up in the sleek bathroom, brimming with essentials like shampoo, conditioner, and body wash.

For those laundry needs that can't wait, a laundromat conveniently awaits you just across the street. And if you've driven into the heart of Austin or opted for a rental, enjoy our hassle-free parking, with both on-site and street options available.

While our abode ensures unparalleled indoor comfort, the real magic lies outside. Dive into the vibrant Zilker scene, explore the natural beauty of Barton Springs, or simply lounge in the lush expanses of Zilker Park. This isn't just an accommodation; it's your gateway to crafting quintessential Austin memories. Welcome to the city's heartbeat!

This home is sectioned into two parts, the front and the back of the house. You have total access to the front of the home, and the back is locked for the homeowner who typically frequents in the summer with their dog. There is little to no interaction between you and the homeowner, but just so you are aware, they are sometimes on-site in the back half of the home.

There is plenty of free street parking nearby for your use.

The trash bins are located on the side of the home towards the front. Trash collection happens on Tuesdays.

Sorry, but the back patio is off limits. Thank you for understanding.

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

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 South Austin, this lively and eclectic neighborhood is known for its unique blend of creativity and culture. The area boasts a diverse range of attractions, including the famous South Congress Avenue (SoCo), where locals and visitors can find an array of boutique shops, art galleries, music venues, and a wide variety of dining options. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the nearby parks and trails that offer opportunities for hiking, biking, and enjoying the scenic views of the city. With a mix of historic charm and modern flair, the neighborhood attracts a youthful and artistic crowd, providing a vibrant urban experience. Overall, this part of Austin is a hotspot for anyone seeking to explore the heart and soul of the city's distinctive culture and lifestyle.

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.

We don't expect you to scrub the home, but simply pick up your trash and put everything where you found it

Great location

Rented this property while visiting our children who study at UT. The property is just as advertised, in a quiet and safe neighborhood. Beds were comfortable. Parking was very easy, just in front the home. Met our needs!

Great duplex - great location

Property was very clean. Kitchen, living area was very spacious. Sofa could have been more comfortable, but we managed. And the bed we chose to sleep in squeaked a bit! But overall, great property and owners! Would stay there again on a return trip.

Clean, Convenient & Comfy

This was a great property for our needs and family. Our two year old had his own room and a yard to play in. It was conveniently located in Zilker - close to playground and some restaurants (generally walkable). We would recommend to anyone visiting and probably will stay gain for sure.

great stay - but we were disappointed that this was not a single home. that was our impression.

This is a section of a larger building, not a single home. (it is divided into two units.)

Cool place near zilker

Very nice place - exactly as advertised. Nothing too fancy but very functional. Not a swanky neighborhood so there are always interesting things going on. Just expect that - it’s not a super quiet neighborhood for the ultra- rich. Just a bunch of regular folks living their lives. We liked it.

Great location, clean and simple

We came here for the location near all our favorite spots in Austin. Quiet, safe residential neighborhood. Home was clean, clutter free, and simple, just enough space for us to comfortably enjoy our time in Austin as a family. Check in and check out was easy and no contact, which we enjoyed.
