The Neighborhood:

Welcome to Clarksville — one of Austin’s most beloved historic districts and the definition of “old Austin cool.” This pocket neighborhood is small but mighty, filled with colorful bungalows, walkable streets, and a food scene that locals keep close to their hearts. From here, you can ditch the car and actually live like an Austinite.



West Lynn Street: Your neighborhood “main drag.” Grab breakfast tacos at Café Medici, sip a turmeric latte at Josephine House, or treat yourself to fine dining at Jeffrey’s (an Austin institution).



Walkable Eats & Treats: Cipollina, Swedish Hill, and Galaxy Café are all within strolling distance. Don’t skip Nau’s Enfield Drug — part old-school pharmacy, part soda fountain, and all nostalgia.



Lady Bird Lake: Just down the hill. Jog the trail, rent a kayak, or simply watch the sun set behind the skyline.



Downtown Austin: Barely a mile away — close enough for live music, events, and nightlife, but far enough to enjoy quiet evenings under the trees.



Local Flavor: Clarksville is a designated historic district, so you’ll see century-old homes tucked next to new modern builds — a true Austin mash-up.



Getting Around:

Clarksville is one of the oldest neighborhoods in Austin.

You can also use Uber and Lyft in Austin. The nearest international airport is Austin-Bergstrom International Airport (AUS) 8 miles | 13 km away. We recommend getting around by car.

Work stay

The house was a nice set up for co-workers who wanted to stay together. One thing to note, the windows are quite thin and you can hear all the street traffic in the bedrooms, which made for a challenge to sleep.The upstairs bathrooms weren’t able to get hot water consistently, so you do need to plan to let the water run for quite awhile if you plan on taking a shower.The house is Austin funky, nice amenities, good for a gathering. Just be prepared with ear plugs or other sleeping aids so you can sleep!
