Loved this place!!
Christina was so friendly and made the check-in process so simple. This place is wonderful for a weekend getaway and really brings to light the true feeling of Austin. Definitely a must stay!
Loved this cool place!
Such a unique and fun studio that has something for your eyes in every direction. Used as a home base for three of us for a four-night stay and were happy to return each night. Secluded, terraced back yard with a fountain and we enjoyed the fire pit. Located in a Travis Heights, a neighborhood of unique and unusual homes that is very quiet and safe. It's just blocks from Riverside Dr., which connects to all the bridges into downtown. We would definitely come back!
Beautiful neighborhood/funky fun place
We loved the space/neighborhood/location for it’s creative and funky, but we have some constructive criticism to share as we are a community looking out/helping one another out! The place could use some sprucing up, the t.v (had a weird black line in the middle of it that would appear every once in a while) and mattresses need replaced (a memory foam mattress on top would help tremendously) along with some new outdoor furniture, current ones are pretty shabby. Some real curtains would be better for the current ones are thin/shear/tutu like material so if light bothers you, bring an eye mask. This place has the potential, but needs some money spent on updating then it will be perfect and shine with pride.
Hi Michelle, just going through older reviews and just saw this one for the first time and wanted to respond. I appreciate getting feedback from guests! The best way is always to let me know directly so I don’t miss it. Just wanted to let you, and everyone know, my husband Andrew passed away on 2/23/19 (so that was just 2 months shy of this review). He was sick for the previous 2 years with cancer, so needless to say that while our Airbnb on our homestead provided us with much needed income, we did not have the wherewithal to attend to much of the aesthetic upkeep. Since he passed away, I did work hard to address a lot of these things and even did a bit of a remodel (new photos to come soon). But just wanted to let you and anybody reading reviews to know that speaking directly to a host about your stay is always the best way to give out constructive opinions. You never know what’s going on in people’s lives. Thanks, C
Location, location, location!
We came down to Austin for 2 concerts. One at Stubbs on Friday night and one at Scoot Inn on Saturday. Great location for these and everything else you want to do in the city.
Also, I can't fail to mention how neat the space is, also the grounds. Cool, clean and comfortable!
Loved our stay!
Awesome place to stay for a quick getaway . We would definitely stay here again. Owner was quick to response and help if we had any questions.

Why Christina Shapter chose Travis Heights
We work really hard to make our units unique! There is an artistic touch everywhere you look. Not to mention, it's the best neighborhood in Austin. One mile from the heart of what makes Austin great!
What makes this Studio unique
We have a beautiful neighborhood lined with trees and rolling hills. I sometimes forget how close we are to downtown because we're surrounded by a nature reserve area known as Blunn Creek.
