Walking distance to Zilker Park, ACL, and so much more!

The space offered is a private guest house at the rear of the owner's homestead. It is like a country cabin; a studio layout with complete kitchen. The bathroom has a shower and stacked washer/dryer. There is plenty of parking and outdoor living space. The Cabin is an ancillary dwelling to a 100 year old bungalow in the middle of Austin; walking distance to many quality restaurants, Zilker Park, Lady Bird Lake, and so much more!

Lovely Little Stay
The location is the greatest part about this place. Very central, which was super convenient for me as I had commitments in both South, North, and East parts of Austin. We LOVED walking right to Lady Bird Lake Trail and couldn't believe how close it was. Only issue I'd like to raise is, that the TV was a bit difficult to figure out. I think the remote's batteries died and we didn't find AAA batteries in the place, so had to manually click the TV to change channels. Not a huge bummer, but I thought I'd flag it for the owner! The communication from the hosts was exceptional. Thank you!

Cutest Cabin
Felt so private and almost “in the country” in the middle of downtown. Walking distance to some really cool restaurants and the park 💕 Comfortable bed and pillows, clean and well-stocked. Host was very easy to get ahold of and communicated well. Will definitely stay again!

Quiet area, comfy cabin
We had a great stay at the cabin. It's close to many attractions, but far enough to avoid the noise of downtown. Cabin is perfect - clean, comfortable, all the necessities. Highly recommended.

Wonderful stay!
Doug’s cabin was the perfect place for our weekend visit! It was comfortable and well-set up, and we appreciated having the small kitchen. The bed was also very comfortable. It’s also a fantastic location, close to almost everything we wanted to do, but we especially loved walking over to Zilker for a long walk to start each morning. We’d love to stay here again!

Everything you need
This may be a small cabin but it is laid out very well. Full sized bathroom with washer/dryer, very comfortable king bed, and nice kitchen. Don't shy away from the fact that it is in the back of the owners property. We stayed 4 days and we didn't see the owner once. It was like we had the place to ourselves. It felt very private. We would recommend this place to anyone. A+

Great getaway spot in fantastic location!
So convenient to downtown hotspots and some of the best outdoor entertainment Austin has to offer. Being tucked away in a charming older neighborhood makes this cottage the best of both worlds. A two week stay was very comfortable! Doug was easy to communicate with and so kind. Thanks, Doug!

We live locally and rented the cabin for an extra holiday guest. Doug was wonderful to communicate with before age during our stay. The cabin was charming just like the photos, spotlessly prepared and just right for our family member. Thank you Doug and we happily recommend this property. It would be a prime location for anyone wanting to explore the best of Austin!

Great place!
Property is tucked behind the main house and feels really private and safe. It has great outdoor lighting (nice to have for when we returned at night), a really comfortable bed, and nice hot shower. On top of that, it has a kitchenette where we made coffee each morning and an adorable porch. Most importantly, it’s got great access to DT and UT and was super quiet. We would definitely stay here again!

Convenient
This bungalow is a complete treasure. I was thankful from the moment we drove up to the property. Doug and his family are welcoming and helpful. Communication was a breeze before (long before since I booked 9 months in advance), during, and after our stay. This cabin felt like home. It is very nicely furnished and decorated. There are little pieces of love for Texas and Austin in every detail. And it was easy to appreciate the neighborhood. We very much enjoyed Pool Burgers, Magnolia Cafe, Deep Eddy Caberet, all 2 minutes walking distance from our door. Also, there's a CVS about 15 mins walking distance up the road. We walked to and from the festival entrance each of the three days with no trouble at all. This was our 2nd time visiting Austin and the ACL festival. We are thrilled with our memorable experience and wish everyone who stays at Doug's the same joy. Thank you Doug and family for your kindness! I certainly hope to visit here again.
