Photos and Description of the Austin vacation townhome rental 2 bedrooms, with loft, 2 full baths, sleeps 6 NON SMOKING

This beautiful, tranquil vacation home has it all, located on the Barton Creek Greenbelt five minutes from Zilker Park and Barton Springs Swimming Pool, a short 10 minutes from downtown. Our location is extremely private and quiet with a hiking trail a half block away. Furnishings are southwest rustic and eclectic with a beautiful surprise around every corner. The kitchen is fully equipped for gourmet dining and the living area includes a 42-inch high definition TV, an upconvert DVD player, and WiFi. The master bedroom has a king size bed and TV, while the second bedroom has a standard bed, and the loft has a trundle. You'll have patios for bird watching and an upstairs deck with a wonderful view. Zilker Park offers swimming in a spring fed pool, train rides through the park, or canoeing/kayaking on Lady Bird Lake on us with a complimentary pass (we own the boat rental). This newly restored home has been described as a 'work of art.'

Austin is a dynamic city known as the Live Music Capitol of the world. 'Keep Austin Weird' is the unofficial motto, but it signifies an effort to maintain a uniqueness that keeps people coming back. We host two screen festivals, South by Southwest and the Austin Screen Festival. And every year we host Austin City Limits, a live music festival, just five minutes from this vacation home. There's something for everyone: shopping, restaurants, antiquing, museums, IMAX and more.

Beautiful Home, Wonderful Location

JayTee Manchester, UK
Review Submitted: March 25, 2008 Date of Stay: March 2008
This is a beautiful property, located in a peacful and idyllic part of Austin, and yet only a short ride from downtown. Perfect as a place to relax, or a base to explore all that Austin has to offer. The house is well maintained, with excellent facilities, and would suit couples, families or groups of friends. The nearby parks and greenbelt are great places to explore, as is the city itself. We found the owners to be very helpful and friendly, excellent hosts on all accounts.
I would thoroughly recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing stay in the Austin area. The house is very comfortable, with beautiful surroundings and good access - perfect in every way.
Owner's Response: When we learned that an English musical group was coming to stay with us, we had trepidations and visions of Johnny Rotten and the Sex Pistols. This group was a delight, respectful of us and our property, and they would be welcome back anytime.

Austin - Wren House

ACL Festival Guys Sylvania, OH
Review Submitted: October 13, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
The Wren House (the owner loves birds and has feeders on the patio) is a lovely, fully furnished two bedroom house with a loft. Great location -- within walking distance of Zilker Park and a short drive to downtown and the South Congress strip. The owners were very hospitable and responsive. We couldn't have asked for a better place, and the price was incredibly reasonable.

Perfect!

Hans K SW Florida
Review Submitted: May 15, 2008 Date of Stay: April 2008
I can't praise this property and the owner enough. At first I was intimidated about spending money on something sight unseen, but upon arrival all fears were relieved! There is no comparison between this and a hotel, ANY hotel or suite. The home was more beautiful and cleaner than any photo can do justice to. The location turned out to be perfect. It seemed everything we wanted to do was either on the main drag it is set off from or one turn away. A snap to SoCo strip and 6th St. strip. We enjoyed the free tour of the capital, the "duck" tour (as seen on Travel Channel) and many fine cafe's and restaurants. My fave was the "Austin Java" on Barton Springs Rd. The live music scene is incredible. The people there really were amazingly noticeably friendlier than most. Even in traffic, four times someone paused to let me turn in front of them. Staying in this beautiful place was like being in a "2nd home". From the squirrels playing on the fabulous two levels of patio/deck, to the HD tv and movies, the modern kitchen and baths, the impeccable beds and linens and the excellent SW decorating, we were sad to leave! We didn't have time to go canoeing, kayaking, or hiking/biking on the nearby trails.

Very Very Enjoyable Stay

Mick & Fran & Sarah Connecticut
Review Submitted: April 15, 2008 Date of Stay: March 2008
We stayed for a week, we have no complaints, everything worked out great. It was quiet, convenient to the city, had all the amenities we desired, beautiful condition, great TV and Internet service. Nice to relax in comfort and sometimes do our own cooking after an exhausting day of activities. Hoping its available next time we visit Austin.

Wren House, Austin TX

Golf Guy Bloomington, IN
Review Submitted: February 18, 2008 Date of Stay: February 2008
Great place to stay with family and/or friends while visiting Austin. Property description accurate. Well-eqiupped, comfortable, and well-maintained. Close to downtown and huge park with lots of activities. Beautiful view from balcony. Owners are friendly, helpful, and eager to please. Would definitely recommend this property to friends.
We enjoyed the walking trail, playground, and fountains at nearby park. LBJ Library and IMAX theater are great. Golf and shopping are a must. Don't miss The Salt Lick, Hula Hut and ZTejas restaurants. We didn't use the boat rental because the weather was a bit chilly, but will try next time.
Owner's Response: These were ideal guests. The communicated well, enjoyed their stay, and respected our home. They would be welcome back anytime.
