The Unique Benefits at this House
The house is 2 blocks from Barton Springs Road right at Restaurant Row. It is one block from Barton Springs if you are willing to trek across the forested lot across the street and that's the location of Umlauf Sculpture Garden. The location is quite secluded. My neighbor to the South is an artist and the lot next door is another sculpture garden.
Serves breakfast 7 - 10, lunch 11:30 - 2, and dinner 6 - 8:30 every day. This place is one of a kind and experience not to be missed by anyone interested in whole health.
Owner's Map of Austin
I love ecology and use earth friendly products to maintain the house. I founded and steward "Casa de Luz" which is an educational community center that is less than a mile from the house. We serve three macrobiotic meals a day to the public but do not advertise it. In 1985 I developed Habitat Suites Hotel, one of the first all suite hotels in the U.S. To this day we have received 15 awards for our ecological initiatives. I bring hotel professionalism to this house.
