Austin is known for its vibrant atmosphere, and this home in Travis Heights fits right in. Boasting an outdoor cowboy-style plunge pool, a patio, and a trendy mid-century-modern design, you'll have everything you need here to feel at home. There's a workspace for digital nomads and a sofa bed for ultimate flexibility. Although it's technically a guest house on the owner's property, it feels private. And the location? You can't beat it. Buzzy SoCo, downtown, and Lady Bird Lake are all within easy reach. We think it's a cool, comfortable base for travellers keen to experience the best of Austin.

Home truths
At full capacity, one guest will sleep on a sofa bed in the music room.
This is a guest house located behind the owner’s main residence. You’ll have complete privacy, though, including a private deck, cowboy pool, and yard.
This is a two-storey home, so expect to climb stairs here.
You can park in the alley behind the home or on the street. The driveway is reserved for the owner. The parking area is a little tight, so we think it’s better suited to smaller vehicles.
If you’re travelling with little ones, your host can provide a pack n’ play travel cot and high chair upon request. They need at least 48 hours' notice prior to arrival.
