Spacious home with an unbeatable location and a wonderful host!
My group of 7 people came to Austin for ACL and wanted something relatively close to Zilker Park. This place was PERFECT. Not only was it close to Zilker, but it was also walking distance to so many restaurants, bars, and shops. There was enough room in the Airbnb for all of us to sleep comfortably without all being packed in like sardines. The property was so charming too - we loved spending time out on the deck surrounded by greenery. Kirk was a fantastic, accommodating host. Can’t wait to stay here again sometime.
