We have just added a Stock Tank Pool, a perfect place to relax and cool off during our Texas summers!

We have a full kitchen available, and outdoor gas and charcoal grills. The house itself is stocked with books, art and music. We offer Amazon Prime and Apple TV, and Netflix and the other streamers are available for guests to log into using their own accounts.

We also can only accommodate 5 people or less to provide the most comfortable environment for you! Our house features a king and queen-sized bed in two bedrooms with one bathroom. There is also a non-foldout sofa which can serve as an extra bed for one person.

The house has a big fenced backyard that lends itself to hanging out in good weather. There is a firepit and the stock tank pool available when circumstances permit. (Please note owners cannot be responsible for any mishaps resulting from the use of either the firepit or the pool).

This home has an "Austin" feel in an incredible neighborhood and is close to everything you're looking for in a visit to ATX!

About the host

Hosted by John T. Davis

Host profile image
I'm a longtime Austinite who is a journalist and author. My beat over the years has covered the Austin and Texas music scenes, the local people and culture, and Texas and the Southwest. My wife is an attorney whose cousin, singer/songwriter Rosie Flores, introduced us. Both of us love art, music and cooking. We also love Austin and enjoy showing it off to friends and visitors.

Why they chose this property

Our house is wonderfully close to so many of the things that make Austin unique and desirable--Barton Springs Pool, Lady Bird Lake and its hike-and-bike trail, the vibrant downtown, and South Congress (aka SoCo), with its eclectic array of great shopping, good eating and live music. Austin has lots of great neighborhoods, but we like ours best.

What makes this property unique

Though the house was built in 1955 and still shows Mid-Century-Mod features, we both have a longstanding love affair with Santa Fe and the Southwest, and our decor reflects that. We have an extensive collection of books, many centered around Texas and New Mexico, and we are fortunate enough to have many pieces of original art. Guests tell us they "feel at home" when they are here, and that's what we strive for. It's not Instagram bait, but it is comfortable and personal and reflects the owners.
