The Neighborhood:
You might know about Austin – the capital of live music, weirdness, and cheap beer. (And Texas... Austin is also the capital of Texas:) But then there is East Austin – the capital within the capital. And if you know anything about the east side, you know it's brimming with culture, swagger, and authenticity. Arguably the fastest growing neighborhood in Austin, the eclectic eastside is where old meets new and fresh eateries and boutiques are popping up like wildflowers.
East Austin boasts an eclectic and diverse range of dining options. It may be Austin's most ethnically diverse culinary scene, where residents can find Lebanese, Vietnamese, Central Mexican, Tex-Mex, and hamburgers all in a two-block radius of 7th Street. This area offers anything from nice sit-down restaurants to mobile food trucks, or even a variety of different bars that serve various foods.
Options for a Friday night in East Austin are limitless, and any person on any budget can have a great time. It is home to an excellent strip of bars and music venues that line East 6th, 7th, and 12th Streets, and an eclectic mix of restaurants are also available in that same area. Food courts with trucks and taco stands are abundant on East Cesar Chavez and along Chicon Street, where one can get anything from chicken and waffles to carne guisada without hurting your wallet. Many of the bars also offer great food and drink specials for anyone on a budget.
Shopping choices are enormous, with thrift and vintage stores at prices that can't be beat as well as locally owned boutiques. Music and art shows are a weekly fixture, but this area also hosts special events like the East Side Art Crawl, Punk Rock Market, free and barter events, and film specials at locally owned theaters. Simply people watching while sipping a coffee, bubble tea, or organic beverage from one of the area's many shops or stands is an activity anyone can enjoy.

The host was very communicative and the check in/out process was smooth! We had 13 people total and more than enough sleeping room, bathroom space, and games (pool table/ ping pong). Very clean space and fully stocked bar cart and kitchen as well.

Outstanding house! A group of us stayed here and it truly had everything we needed! Fully stocked kitchen, large open living room/dining room which was great for sitting around and sharing lots of fun memories! The bedrooms are all set up nice with lots of comfortable beds, and the bathrooms had very soft towels! The air conditioner was amazing!! Definitely works!! Communication was the best of any VRBO we have ever stayed. Would definitely recommend this house for anyone coming into Austin!

Thank you so much for your wonderful review Dana! We’re thrilled to hear the home had everything you needed and that the layout worked well for enjoying time together. We’re especially glad you found the beds comfortable and the towels soft—and yes, the AC is definitely a favorite during Austin weather! 😊
It means a lot to hear that communication was a highlight for you as well. We always aim to make our guests feel supported throughout their stay.
We truly appreciate the recommendation and would be happy to host you again anytime you’re back in Austin! 💛🏡
Thank you for staying with us and for leaving a review Joshua. During your stay, when we checked in with you, you mentioned that everything was good and did not bring up any concerns about the issue you mentioned in your review. If this had been brought to our attention at that time, we would have immediately requested photo evidence and taken appropriate action to address it.
You also requested an extension of your stay, but unfortunately, we were unable to accommodate it due to another confirmed booking. We did, however, offer you an alternative property just a one-minute walk away.
We truly appreciate your feedback and wish you the best on your future travels.
