Head out the backyard, through the gate, down a private path straight into Barton Creek Greenbelt. Filled with miles of hiking and biking trails, you can spend an entire afternoon in the great outdoors! If you're lucky, the creek will be filled with water and you can go for a swim. You’ll love the view from the living area, the location, and the outdoor space. While you may feel secluded in this forest abode, you're only a few minutes from downtown and all the action.

Interested in a private cooking lesson or a meal cooked by a chef in the comfort of our home? How about a private yoga class out in the backyard, or a masseuse who comes to you? Think family or group photos at a classic location in Austin would be a great way to remember your trip? I can connect you with my local faves to help make this trip one for the books! If you are interested, please reach out so we can schedule in advance.
Nestled in the Barton Hills, this house is just 2 miles from downtown. If you're visiting and looking for a space of your own that's central but away from the chaos of downtown, this is the place for you. Easy access downtown via bike trails, or a bus that stops just a minute away from the house. Nearby streets have sidewalks which makes an evening stroll very enjoyable. Walk out the back door and into the greenbelt with miles of trails in every direction.
The 30 Bus Line is across the street and takes you downtown in about 15 minutes for $1.25
You can also bike downtown easily via Barton Springs Rd (there are sidewalks and bike lanes the whole way).
You can take a nice leisurely 20 minute walk through the greenbelt to Zilker park or Barton Springs (natural springs swimming hole)

Here are just a few ways you can help us out so that we can keep our home pet friendly for future guests…
*Pets should be kept on a leash in the neighborhood and please clean up after them in the neighborhood, trails, and the backyard.
*Guests must bring their own pet’s crate, bedding, waste care, and an extra towel or two to clean up any messes or accidents.
*My home furniture is not a place for your pet to sleep.
*Let me know ASAP if your pet does have an accident on the furniture, carpets, rugs, so that I can get my cleaners over to take care of it.
*The yard is fully fenced in! However, do not leave your dog outside if you are not home. If you're anything like me, your dog is your baby, and you wouldn't dream of leaving them outside while you weren't home. But I just want to make sure we're on the same page :)
Other rules:
* Quiet outside after 10pm
*For stays longer than 5 days, once you run out of toilet paper, paper towels, and toiletries, you are expected to replenish those on your own.
