The location was great, close to South Congress and 1st Ave. We walked to shops and restaurants and also walked to Lake Austin. The grocery store is a few minutes away by car. Driving everywhere was easy. We parked in the driveway which was convenient. The street is quiet and pretty. On the inside everything worked well. The rooms were comfy. Kitchen had everything. Plants were in need of some watering.

Rental was very comfortable, clean and in a great location for Austin. With the rental being just off of South Congress, there were many restaurant options and shopping within walking distance. The neighborhood felt very safe. Highly recommend The Salty which was a short distance from the rental for gourmet donuts and coffee. If you are arriving earlier than checkin, there is an option for you to store your luggage for an extremely reasonable rate and is located just a couple blocks from the rental. My recommendation is to get that exact location of temporary storage from the property manager. We were a little unclear as to the process and the location of the storage is a business right on Congress street. Highly recommend the LBJ Library if you are interested in history and strolling around the beautiful state capitol grounds. Also recommend visiting wine country just west of Austin. William Chris Vineyards outside of Fredericksburg is a beautiful winery definitely worth visiting. BBQ choices were overwhelming in this great city! We did experience County Line BBQ on the lake and it was absolutely delicious! When in season, seeing the bats emerge from the Congress bridge from a boat on the Colorado River at dusk is an awesome experience. To summarize, I would recommend this rental for an Austin visit!

Me and my family had an amazing time. We came to Austin for motorcycle racing at COTA. A friend told us to stay in the South Congress area, because there was lots to do and it wasn’t far from the track. We found this great house and it was a perfect location. You are so close to great restaurants and cute shops while having a lot of privacy. The house was great, it was clean and had every amenity we needed. Ames was amazing to deal with. I would definitely recommend staying here.
