The Soco Bungalow is a sweet renovated 1935 cottage that is located in the beautiful Travis Heights Neighborhood just 3 blocks from South Congress or Soco, the trendy area that defines Austin’s Uniqueness and 3 blocks from Stacy Park and the Stacy Pool that is open and free year ‘round.
The Soco and Travis Heights neighborhood is a very established, beautiful neighborhood with HUGE live oak trees and beautiful historical mansions. It is one of the best walking neighborhoods in Austin, located just a few minutes to downtown and the entertainment district of 6th street.
The bungalow has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, two queen beds and one twin, and a living area (with fold down couch for sleeping if needed) with 3 outdoor spaces with tables and chairs for enjoying the beautiful Austin weather. It is about 1100sf.
Back Porch is covered and has an outdoor 'living room' feel. BBQ grill as well. Sweet outdoor gardens with ivy, fresh basil, mint, wandering jew, huge Oak Trees and green all around.
The house is an easy walk to wonderful restaurants, shopping and the internationally renowned Continental Club with the Gallery Jazz Club perched above. Great music! It is located only about 2 miles to the Convention Center and the 6th street/ Entertainment District.
You will love this house and location! Amazing, beautiful, so quiet... and sweetly unique!

Took a trip to Austin for a business retreat and was not looking forward to staying in an overpriced and cold hotel room. A friend turned me on to Tazzoe Rentals and me and my colleagues ended up staying in this cute little house tucked in right off of South Congress. It was everything I wanted to be. Quiet, peaceful, but I could easily walk to Austin favorites such as Magnolia Cafe. It was a great way to experience the city - when I wanted it, it was there, when I didn't want it, the house provided great refuge. The house is adorable, with a patio in the back and one in the front that provided some great spaces for catching up with people over a drink, the two bedrooms allowed us the privacy and comfort we needed, closets were huge, the water pressure on the shower was incredible! The place was exactly like the photos made it out to be, it was clean and freshly redone and had a cool Southwest theme on the inside. Staying at the house was great and I will definitely try to get the house again for next year's summit.Recommended for: Sightseeing, tourists without a car, people with disabilities, girls getaway, families with young children, pet owners, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.

The home is very comfortable, quiet and private; I was able to read and catch up on studying without difficulty. It's a few blocks walk to the SoCo District with lots of great restaurants and nightclubs. The utilities work well; I love the decor and the beautiful trees sheltering the home. I will be back.Recommended for: Sightseeing, tourists without a car, girls getaway, families with young children, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.

What a fun house to stay in for a car free vacation! We were able to walk to shopping (antiques, vintage clothing, souvenirs, a yarn shop, a litle grocery) to restaurants to hang out places (Jo's Coffee is a must for hanging out and watching the beautiful people stroll by). South Congress it a busy area but the house is a few blocks removed on a quiet street, so we appreciated that too. Cute kitchen was fun for cooking and then eating out under the giant oak trees. The house was very comfortable and I would love to come back for another stay.Recommended for: Sightseeing, tourists without a car, girls getaway, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, age 55+.

From what I'm told (and what I've seen), South Congress is the happening new area in Austin, and this location was ideal for exploring it on foot. This colorful cottage under gigantic oaks was comfortable and appears to have been recently remodeled. We found a little jazz bar above the Continental Club and it was like hanging out with old friends (that you've never met). Nice walk home after the show.Recommended for: Sightseeing, tourists without a car, romantic getaway.

Just came in for the weekend, and found this little gem tucked into the Travis Heights Neighborhood. Love this vrbo site! Walked to so many wonderful shops and resturaunts. Loved Magnolia for Breakfast and the little Jazz place above the Continental Club. And the house and beds were comfy too. We slept great...so quiet! Loved our stay. Gave us a real taste of Austin Eclectic!Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

About the owner: I have had the great fortune of living in Austin for more than 20 years, and feel this Soco Hideaway is not only a great location in Travis Heights, but its the cutest house with southwestern design and austin uniqueness combined. Walk to Soco (South Congress)3 blocks away and shop, dine and entertain yourself. Moments to downtown and 3 blocks to Stacy Park and a free, heated, year-round pool. The new queen size bed is comfy, with 2 full bathrooms for the 2 bedrooms. I also have a twin bed for guests or use as a den. Very sweet! I have 4 vacation rental properties and I care and maintain all of them with the utmost care, cleanliness and professionalism. Remarkable and beautiful!
