About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Historic Harthan

This space is a delightful mix of beauty, comfort, and location. We keep an immaculate, cozy home perfectly nestled near the best Austin has to offer. Pecan Square Cafe, Clark's, Lin Asian Bar + Dim Sum, and Swedish Hill restaurants are next door!

The apartment is a 2b/1b with plenty of large windows, outside porch, beautiful garden area, water fountains, comfy beds (2 queens – one in each bedroom; and 1 queen+ futon in living room).

Walkable to many restaurants (Pecan Square Cafe, Clark's, Lin Asian Bar + Dim Sum, Z-tejas, Bar Peached, Cipollina, Galaxy Cafe, Josephine House, Jeffery's), Cafe Medici (coffee lover's heaven), as well as neighborhood parks and pools. Also within walking distance of 6th Street (for bar hoppers), 2nd Street (for shoppers), the Warehouse District (for food-o-philes), Whole Foods (their flagship store) and our beloved BookPeople (for bookworms).

Includes Full kitchen (stove, oven, refrigerator, microwave, toaster, Nespresso coffee machine, French press, blender, dishwasher, etc).

Not for guests who want to party. No parties or excessive noise; No loud noise after 9pm weekdays and 10pm weekends (residential area). Please be mindful as there is an apartment below you and that loud sounds can easily disturb guest(s) downstairs and/or neighbors. Thank you for your consideration.

Early check-in: Generally guests check-out and then we need several hours to sparkle and clean the apartment. You can check-in early after 11:30am, as long as you know that the space will probably not yet be clean.

Late check-out: If no guests are checking in the day you leave, then you can have a late check-out. Otherwise, we will need to start cleaning to be ready for the next guests.

Bag drop: You are always welcomed to drop you bags off early or leave them to pick up later in the day (if so contact us beforehand so that we can make arrangements).

Parking: In the back of the house is the carport. You can use either one of the two spots available. However, do not use the other spot (as it is reserved for someone else).

Although we recommend renting a car, here are other ways of getting around:
• Lyft, Uber and Taxis.
• Austin B-cycle (bike sharing).
• Car2go (membership required).
• CapMetro (Austin's public transportation is not that great).

If you need any questions or special requests, just let us know.

Comfy, clean, great location

We visited Austin for a four-day BBQ extravaganza, and this cozy cottage was the perfect home base. It was 100+ degrees every day and we'd come home full of food and overheated--and opening the door to that sweet, sweet AC was exactly what we needed. The beds were comfortable, the towels plentiful, and a cute little bakery/coffee place was right around the corner. We'd definitely come back!

Adorable house

Perfect location that is very walkable to many local restaurants! Lunch at Lin Asian Bar was amazing, and drinks at Howard’s were great. Also really close to the famous Waterloo Records, which was a surprising plus we were not expecting! The house was super clean and comfy. We felt very safe there. Beds very comfy too!

A walk away

Loved the location! About a 10 minute walk to some bars, close enough to some shopping and restaurants. (Dim Sum is amazing). The house was perfect. It had anything and everything you could possibly need and very clean. Finding the location and parking was really easy. The yard is also beautiful. Next time I'm in Austin I would definitely stay at this VRBO again.

Great location

Fantastic location, quaint, well-appointed and very comfortable small house. There is quite a bit of traffic that goes by, but the owners have thoughtfully supplied earplugs. Amenities are above and beyond the expected, the welcoming snacks were are much appreciated touch. The one thing we found to be lacking was coffee mugs.

Amazing visit to wonderful Austin

I cannot say enough great things about our stay. The property is a great location to get to a lovely several mile walk around the Colorado River, tons of restaurants and a variety of entertainment. The accommodations are comfortable, kitchen is well appointed (especially for you coffee lovers out there) and the communication with the owners was just spot on. I've already told my husband and daughter if we can all get back to Austin together, I wouldn't think twice about where we would stay. Thank you so much for being such a considerate and gracious host. Simply perfect!

Beautiful, clean apartment in an ideal location.

Beautiful apartment. Ideal location to play in Austin. Safe, great neighborhood close to everything we wanted to do. Lovely hospitality. A cabinet full of spring water, shelves of fresh towels, sparkling clean apartment, hip, fabulous art on the walls, big comfy beds. Just perfect. Thank you so much. We had an unlucky weather weekend but the cozy digs made it all worthwhile.
