Cozy little music houseAnyone else think it's weird our parents told us NOT to talk to strangers and yet, here you are trying to get in my house...like, wtf? Anyway, it's a pretty cool set up as far as cribs go; Delta8 friendly. The living room is set up for live music on Tuesday nights which is why it is blocked off. There is also a friendly doggo on site who means well but doesn't quite understand the concept of personal space. If you have any questions, please feel free to send them my way. Thank you!
Modern and Cozy South Austin StudioThis is a brand new renovated garage turned into a modern and beautiful studio. This space is completely private from the main house, with a private entrance and cozy patio. It can sleep 4 people, although the space would be a little tight for 4 adults. There is a queen bed, and a sleeper sofa which can be used together as a queen, or option to separate into 2 twins. Free Wifi, free parking, very close to downtown Austin but in a quiet and safe neighborhood! Please see map!

“Uber/lyft and local favorite ride austin are all easy to catch from our house. Taxi service is less reliable. all very economical since we live so close to austin's main attractions. public transport consists of buses. go to capmetro website if interested in bus routes.”
“Getting around -ride sharing would be the best way to get around if you don't have a car. -rent a car? download the park atx app so you can add time to the meter while you're out and about -the nearest metro (local bus) stop is 1.5miles from our hourse”
