Lovely East Downtown Arts & Crafts Home (#38239)

December 2008

I spent six weeks at this rental property in mid-winter with my five-year-old son, partner, and small dog. We had a wonderful time. The house is comfortable and clean, with great character and light. The kitchen is fantastic, lots of modern amenities. I loved the neighborhood, especially Natural Foods just a few blocks down (vegetarian cafe). I cannot stress enough how great the owners are: thoughtful, friendly, helpful, honest, and excited to show off a city they love to new people. (I did not know them before our stay.) They made our Austin visit an especially great experience. We hope to return as soon as possible. And the agave plant in the front yard is terrific.
