We stayed in this great cottage when we were in town for a UT football weekend. The location was perfect for getting to the campus as well as wonderful restaurants & shopping on South Congress. The neighborhood is a wonderful place for walks and picnicking. Although our favorite spot in the entire neighborhood was the back patio at the cottage. We enjoyed breakfast and evenings out by the pond. The house had everything we needed - comfortable beds, room to relax and visit, cookware to prepare breakfast for the patio and an ipod docking station and speakers to enjoy our music. Would highly recommend this great vacation cottage.

We stayed at this beautiful home in October. Especially loved the hot tub, location, decorating, stocked kitchen, yard with plantings & fish pond, and comfortable beds!

Charming Austin Getaway!

Our family of four spent nine days in Austin this summer for a volleyball tournament and couldn't have asked for better accommodations. This two-bedroom house is a charming renovation that includes all the amenities you could want, is close to so many cool Austin restaurants, shops and trailers on SoCo and the surrounding areas and is a very short walk to the warm, spring-fed outdoor pool at Big Stacy park. Everything at the house was as wonderful as described, it is well maintained and clean and there is even a large bonus room with a six-person dining table and window views of the quaint backyard. You will love this place. P.S. We do suggest parking out front on the street since the driveway is pretty steep...but other than that, this place is a wonderful retreat.

We found the cabin to truly be cozy and comfortable. It is in a great loation to access all of Austin's attractions and a short ride to Jo's for morning coffee. The house was just the right fit for us. The beds were very comfortable and the air conditioning is super. Nice quiet and safe neighbrhood feel. Would definetly come again. The owners were great to deal with, really responsive and helpful. Highly recommended!

My family and I had a wonderful time at your cozy cabin. This was our first visit to Austin and we found the cabin was perfect for our needs. We loved the surroundings! Everything was very clean when we arrived. We had all the amenities to make our stay comfortable. The jacuzzi was a real plus..we used it in the morning and at night! The coi pond was a hit with my younger daughter who also found a toad in it! She loved the backyard. The location was close to all to the cool shops/restaurants on South Congress but tucked in the hills so we didn't feel like we were too close to the action. Thanks again and we hope to use your cabin again in the near future.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Cozy Cottage in Travis Heights. We walked through Big Stacey Park and went for a swim in the pool across the street almost every day we were there. We ended most busy days in the hot tub. Very quiet location and close to everything we like to enjoy in Austin. Great communication and great service from the owners. We would recommend this home to any active couple or active couple with older kids.

We enjoyed our first trip to Austin. Our once-a-month get-aways have been Dallas, BUT now it's Austin. We loved the cottage home the best. It was wonderful to come "home" and rest in the hot tub and then go out to nightlife and return back "home." No more hotel stays for us!…We will be back!

We stayed in this great bungalow for my sister's graduation. It was very well located on a quiet street right in the heart of Soco. Lots of great shopping and dining options in the neighborhood. It was also stocked with everything you could possibly need. I travel a lot and always use vacation rentals and this was one of the better equipped rentals I have found. The great little yard was beautifully landscaped and my sister's kid had a great time feeding the koi fish in the pond. The next time we are in Austin I wont even look around, I will rent this place again. Thanks to Jac and Jeff for the hospitality!

We had a great time and enjoyed this cute property. It sits on top of a small hill and has a beautiful, relaxing backyard. The washer and dryer came in handy as well. Very much worth the price. I would recommend it highly.
