Delightful neighborhood, huge back yard, a bit of scruffy charm

Unit B has likely seen some better days, let’s just be honest about that. But the surface dings and scratches, weathered wood and mismatched dishes somehow made it an even more charming getaway for me over a long-term rental while my own home was undergoing renovations. This is going to sound like a neg, but I completely mean it: it felt like a home and not someplace I needed to watch my every step for fear of leaving some trace of myself. It was very clean, very well-kept, all the comforts you’d need, just also imperfect in a perfect way. I loved the neighborhood, too. Not “steps from the center of it all” but a green hollow just off one of South Austin’s most trafficked roads. You’d never know. It’s an established, lived-in neighborhood with lots of people walking their dogs and a green belt accessible from just down the street. There’s short but quiet hiking trails, with a genuine mini-Stonehenge off the path at one point. It is a taste of “weird” Austin that’s more like the quiet Hill Country than South Congress. I’m sure it would be a great place for a group visit and can imagine long talks under the stars in the big backyard, letting the dogs play. But I loved it for the time it gave me to rest amidst the chaos of my real home being torn up and put back together. I hope you can tell this is genuinely enthusiastic review. The management was great and cooperative. The check in and out was easy. The carport is a bit of tight fit. I would visit again.
