Charming Two Bedroom Cottage in Old West / Clarksville / Downtown
Two bedrooms fully restored cottage. Tons of light and charm. Hand-scraped hardwood floors. Great outdoor space. Very much an 'old Austin' vibe. Two large sunny bedrooms, each with queen size bed. Queen sleeper sofa in living room.
Excellent location in the heart of the Clarksville / Old West neighborhood. One of Austin's oldest and most sought after neighborhoods. Five minutes to downtown, 6th Street, Town Lake. 1 block to great restaurants, grocery, coffee.
For rentals more than three weeks in advance we usually prefer a longer stay (longer than a couple of nightnights) so for those rentals please submit a request for information before submitting a booking request.
There is construction going on on the corner lot across the street. We've had several guests now since construction started and they say it's a minor annoyance, but we want to disclose this anyway.
We have a modern guest house on the same property. See this link for that property https://www.vrbo.com/700245?unitId=1248183

About Brian Stansberry
We have been providing furnished housing on Capitol Hill in Washington thru our main business Capitol Hill Stay for 20 years. We live on Capitol Hill. But we've been coming to Austin since I was in the Houston Fire Department in the 1980s. And we are slowly moving here for retirement. We are a veteran-owned small local business. We do this full time. This is our only source of income. We both traveled a great deal both in the military and in private business. Often it wasn't a great experience. So we decided when we started 20 years ago to try to provide the best lodging experience possible - pleasant, clean, professional, hassle-free, and in interesting, well-kept places. We also pride ourselves on being open to all. We do not discriminate and we welcome all.
Brian Stansberry purchased this Cottage in 2013

Quaint and Comfy
This neighborhood cannot be beat for hip and cool. Brian’s Service is excellent. Great visit!
Thank you Ashley. It was a pleasure having you. You are welcome back anytime.
Cozy, charming, & convenient
Everything was wonderful! Loved the house it reminded me of my grandparents old house. The location was great— convenient to everything. Even when driving around from the location, traffic was very manageable. Lots of cute homes in the neighborhood to see when walking or driving, & local eateries are only a block away. We met some neighbors while walking, they were very friendly & helpful with tips of places to eat & visit. Would definitely book again!
Thank you Marisa. It was a pleasure having you. You are welcome back anytime.

Cute Little Cottage!
We really enjoyed our perfectly located little cottage house in Austin. We found the home to be clean and simple. I really enjoyed it's charm! Would highly recommend to anyone visiting the area.
Beautiful property close to Zilker Park!
We ended up staying in the studio for our 3 night stay but the cottage was quaint, quiet, and beautiful. The owner, Brian, was extremely accommodating and helpful with local recommendations. The location is perfect- very close to Lady Bird Lake, Zilker Park, and Lake Austin. We will definitely be staying here again!

Rates & Availability
Additional information about rental rates
Pets MAY be considered if requested in advance. Late moveout and early checkin MAY be possible with request in advance. One offstreet parking space is included. Street parking is plentiful. This is a quiet residential area and we request that guests respect that. Please note that we do have a one night minimum but generally if you want just one night on a weekend we are going to need to charge a higher rate, or if you want just one or two nights well for a date well in the future when the week or so on either side of your dates is not rented we may not be able to accommodate that or may need to set a higher nightly rate. Also we do try to get all the major festivals but Austin has a ton of festivals so if you're coming in for one of those and our nightly rate seems super low you may want to ask if it's accurate (no, you won't get SXSW lodging for $125 a night). We may require a photo ID within 24 hours of booking. The credit card used must be in the name of the person making the booking. Please inquire for details.
