About this property

Charming 4/2 Travis Heights Austin (~SoCo~) Monthly Long Term Furnished Rental

This wonderful house overlooks Stacey Park and is located in the coveted Travis Heights neighborhood of Austin.

Great Location!
Award-winning restaurants and excellent shopping are just a five-minute walk away to South Congress Ave. (SoCo). Downtown is minutes away, where shopping, nightlife, and cultural events await!
We regularly walk to Riverside to Lady Bird Lake and walk along the river trails. The kids love to watch for trains on the bridge and also love going to see the dogs play all along the park. You don't have to have a car at all as you are not far from some of the best fun in Austin; though, that said, a car, bike or cab might be nice on the hotter days.

Walk out the front door and you will find a peaceful Stacey Park with excellent walking/running paths along Bouldin Creek. Walk the path a few minutes to the right and you will find beautiful Stacey Pool (open year-round/spring fed) great year-round for lap swimming and kiddo fun in the summer. Walk a few minutes to the left and you will find a large park and children's playground with picnic tables and outdoor grills. There is a shaded fenced in pool for small children (summer months only) and 2 refinished tennis courts (with lighting till 10 PM).

Furnishings
The house decor is smart, comfortable, and simple. There are beautiful hardwood floors downstairs, Mexican tile in the kitchen and Berber carpet upstairs.
All bed linens are 600 thread count.

Upstairs
Upstairs you will find the Master bedroom (king bed) and a small bedroom (queen bed). The upstairs is one of my favorite spots in the house. It is pretty and bright; the hallway has 2 comfortable club chairs for reading and relaxing. Our children love to play in this area. We do require that young children are supervised at all time upstairs due to the loft overhang and the stairs

The master bedroom features a wonderfully comfortable California king size bed, an en suite bath with two sinks, a large shower, and a whirlpool tub.
The small bedroom features a comfortable queen bed. This small room is one of my favorite places to sleep.

Downstairs
The downstairs front part of the house has a small living room, 2 bedrooms with comfortable Queens size beds and a full bath. The bedrooms and bath are located off of a short hallway that can be closed off at night or in the morning for privacy or quiet.

Also downstairs is the spacious and well-equipped galley kitchen with its adjacent dining area. It is nice and open and is perfect for dinner with friends and family. The kitchen table has 2 leaves that expand to seat 8-10 comfortably. When my whole family is visiting, we pull in the small oval table from one of the sunrooms and place it on the end so that we can all eat together.

The Kitchen dining area opens onto the larger Sun Room which we use as the main living room. It is a great room for hanging out and visiting or watching TV (Large Flat screen with full cable). This room is wide so it is really 2 rooms in one. We have it decorated so that the side without the TV lends itself to game/card playing or reading etc. The couches are large and comfortable and there are many chairs for larger groups.
The back wall of the sunroom has 6 large windows that look out on one of the nicest features of the house; the beautiful back deck. It is a wonderful place to relax or eat/drink in the shade of the gorgeous very old live oak.

Laundry Room
Around the corner from the Dining area, there is a laundry room with a full capacity washer and dryer.

Longer term rental options
We are also open to long-term renters. We would prefer to rent the house furnished but can be flexible for the right renter. Rental start dates for furnished rental may also be flexible. Will only consider Long term if no short-term guests are booked within the dates desired.

Property is clean and in a nice neighborhood

Property is clean inside and in a nice quiet neighborhood, yet close to all activities. There are 4 bedrooms with comfortable beds. Some updates are probably needed inside, but the condition seems typical for this vintage of home. All appliances are in good working condition. Location is less than a $10 uber or lyft ride to downtown attractions.

Perfect location

Walking distance to SoCo shops and restaurants. Average Uber into the city was about $10. Easy to find. Across from a quiet park. Breathtaking backyard and patio. No issues except for the warmer temperature on the first level. Fair price.

Amazing Home, Amazing Experience

The house was perfectly located in a quite neighborhood, but only a 5-10 minute walk to S. Congress street. It was also quick Lyft to just about everything you could want to do in Austin. The kitchen was well equipped to make your own meals in the house, and a giant grocery store was located less than 1o mins away. The host, Rebecca, was so accommodating and allowed us to check out late. The house fit 6 of us comfortably, but could easy fit more. Overall, If I visit Austin again, I will definitely be staying at this home!

So, so warm and comfortable. We had 8 extended family members staying together for a family wedding.

The home and outdoor living area in Austin were perfect for our extended family. The kitchen was fully equipped for our family potluck post-wedding brunch outside on the patio. So much fun! Thanks for sharing your lovely home!

So Cozy Home Near SoCo

The property is in a great location--directly across from a park and just a 10 minute walk to SoCo shops, restaurants and bars. The house is comfy and charming, with plenty of room, and really well stocked with basic things like spices, laundry detergent, paper goods, etc. The property managers were pleasant to work with and very responsive to our questions. The house is older and it could use some updates here and there, so it might not suit someone who expects perfection in EVERY detail. But if you want quiet, cozy and convenient, this property fits the bill!

Great location!

While the house could use some updates, especially in the bathrooms, its location was great and the house had plenty of room. The one disappointment was that while the backyard was fabulous, the table on the deck was so rickety that none of us felt comfortable using it for dining. Given how wonderful is the backyard deck, the owners really should invest in some new outdoor furniture.

South Congress great weekend

I'm a farm kid from Iowa living in California for the last 25 years. When my wife and I visit Austin we prefer an honest home versus a hotel stay. Our hosts welcomed 4 couples and we had plenty of room for privacy and spreading out in the house or backyard. We walked to groceries, breakfast, lunch, dinner, shops and music clubs. We all love the South Congress vibe and this comfortable home only enhanced the experience. All the original instructions were sufficient to keep us engaged and running smoothly. Any questions were answered quickly. Checkin and checkout were ridiculously friendly, well-informed and easy. Bathrooms clean and efficient. Kitchen wide open and well appointed. See? We loved it. You will, too.

Great house, great location!

5 girlfriends and I stayed for a long weekend (our annual reunion since college in the '90s). Not only was there plenty of room, comfortable beds, nicely stocked kitchen and great "hang out" space inside and outside but the location was within walking distance to South Congress (think Torchy's Tacos, Continental Club, shopping, etc)). It was also a quick cab ride downtown with RideAustin (like Uber). The property managers were very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. Thanks for a wonderful weekend!

Perfect Home and Location for our family!

We are an all adult family of 6 in town for a family wedding at Mercury Hall. This location was 2 minutes to the bride's mother (my best friend), 6 minutes to the venue, 15 minutes to my daughter and best yet, a 5 block walk to South Congress for the 30 year old kids. We've been coming to Austin for many years and spend most of our time between Travis Heights and the UT area and this home couldn't be better for that. And now there is a Torchy's in the neighborhood! The home was clean, well equipped and large. Lots of rooms for people to gather or find a room to themselves. Beds were very comfortable. Plenty of hot water for so many showers. If you are looking for a cozy, yet large home, this is your place.

Wonderful house and location

We had a great 3 night stay at this house. Great layout for a group of ladies- spent most of our time hanging out in the sunroom and outside patio areas. Although there are only 2 bathrooms, there is an extra vanity area which helped a lot. Did not have any big issues, but Cesar was just a call or text away in case we did. Of note, each time we used the oven, the fire alarm would start ringing. We just got used to fanning the area to quiet the alarm, but seems like the oven just needs a good cleaning. This did not negatively imact our stay as we got some good laughs out of everyone grabbing a towel or baking pan to fan the kitchen.

Wonderful spot for a family vacation.

We spent Christmas here with our son and his two children ages 7 & 10. There was plenty of room for our Texas family to gather and visit. We loved the location and could easily walk to South Congress. There was plenty of room outside for overflow, Perfect fit for us!!

Exactly what we needed

Large and well appointed home perfectly situated a couple blocks from So. Congress and across the street from Stacey Park. Very pretty neighborhood. This home had every amenity needed for a large extended family including toys toddler appropriate. Bonus large deck off back, nice open floor plan. Clean and comfortable would stay here on next Austin visit. Would suggest that lock box be placed in a more convenient place a little higher on the rail. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Loved it.

This is just what you want in a VRBO. Great price, great location, nice house with plenty of indoor and outdoor space. The property manager is very attentive with keeping you "in the know", and checked in to make sure everything was good during our stay. You can walk to the many restaurants on South Congress, and it's a really short, cheap cab ride to 6th street and all Downtown Austin has to offer. Highly recommend.

Great Place! Close to everything!

This was our first homeaway experience and our entire group was blown away. Not only was the property manager a pleasure to work with but he quickly responded to any question we had and was awesome. The house was the perfect size for our group of 8 and had everything we could have needed for our stay; ample closet space, plenty of towels, washing machine & dryer, a large back deck for everyone to congregate, plenty of seating indoors to hang out as well, the list goes on. The accommodations were very comfortable and we could walk to everything. If we are ever in Austin again this is where we're staying! Thanks for everything!

Great Family Gathering

We came from all four corners of the US to help our son celebrate his wedding. The house worked perfectly for our get together. There was enough room for people to have their own space and also room to gather together (breakfast craziness). I can't say enough about how comfortable the house was. The property manager made sure we had everything we needed and was very flexible with our schedule. Fantastic location, comfortable beds, great neighborhood directly across from a park with a running trail and playground. We had a great time and didn't have to second guess our location or accommodations in an otherwise unfamiliar city. Thank you for offering this house for our memories.

LOVED, loved the house!!

Perfect location and in one of my favorite neighborhoods in Austin. The house was perfect for a family gathering as they were so many living spaces for people to congregate. The back deck and Texas spring weather made for a great setting for meals and coffee, and the park across the street was delightful. The house was also well maintained, and the property manager did an excellent job staying in touch and making sure our stay was comfortable. Highly recommend it and we will be back!

A delightful place and a delightful host...

Apparently this is the place to stay if you're in town for a wedding and I couldn't agree more. The house is spacious, comfortable, and conveniently located. From reserving to checking out, the owner and property manager were extremely accommodating and friendly. There's a lot of planning and potential headaches that can go along with a destination wedding, and they made this the easiest aspect of our trip. Thank you!
