We loved our stay! The pics online don’t do justice to how cute it was. The beds were so comfy, we loved the outdoor space for morning coffee and the location was great. It was also so clean and the decorating was amazing!
It was perfect for a quick mom’s gateway. We can’t wait to come back,

My husband and I have stayed in some top-notch hotels all over the Austin area and this was by far our favorite trip. Michelle's guest house was in a prime location, within walking distance to South Congress Ave. We walked to brunch, our morning coffee, shopping, and "home" after a dinner and drinks out. It was quaint, quiet and cute. The guest house is tastefully decorated and makes you feel like you're at home, away from home. The patio was beautiful and was surrounded by live oak trees. We only wish we could have stayed longer and are already planning our return. Thanks again Michelle, you were an excellent host!

Special property…water issues
Very special property with nice touches. We really enjoyed having the fire during the winter. Cozy and romantic. Perfect location! The check in instructions mentioned hot water issues. I was able to get hot water in the shower, but only by using the “hot” tap only. I could not get hot water in the sink without a lot of trial and error. Super nice property, however some plumbing issues should be fine-tuned at this price.

Christmas
Covid changed our Christmas plans at the last minute - so my husband and and I headed to Austin to be with our daughter. This place was just what we needed. The location is fantastic - short short walk to south Congress with all the shops and food you could want. The outdoor area was a lovely retreat for our souls! Michelle is the perfect hostess. This place is everything the pictures show and more

Perfect space in the perfect location
As charming as this home looks on line, it is in person. The location is minutes walk from Congress in a darling neighborhood but the truth is, we dined two nights in the backyard because with all the concerns with covid, and the backyard being a beautiful setting, we didn’t feel one bit compromised to stay “home”. We will be back. Always the largest of testimonials!

Perfect location, well-designed and immaculate indoor space with amazing outdoor space!
We loved our time here! My husband and I were here for our anniversary. We wanted a quiet and secluded space that was also walking distance the South Congress area and this place was all that and more! The host was very inviting and helpful but gave us all of the privacy we needed. The backyard is a true oasis of relaxation and peace. The owner clearly loves plants and her back yard is a gallery of her work! The house is the perfect size and is really well designed and decorated. It reminded me of our trips to Oaxaca, Mexico and Marta, Texas combined. We grilled out dinner on the outdoor grill at night and enjoyed our days reading in the hammocks by day. Overall, this space was exactly what two, tired and overworked artists really needed... It was inspiring and relaxing!

Perfect getaway
My friend & I loved staying at this property. The guest house was the perfect size and it really almost felt like being in a treehouse. Michelle kept her phone on in case we needed anything and it was lovely to have the backyard to ourselves. We didn’t want to leave!

Beautiful property close to everything
This place was the perfect little getaway for us for the weekend. Everything was nearby as well yet her house was perfectly secluded. So you get the best of both: city life and quiet relax time in the beautiful patio.

Simply Amazing!!
What can I say about this Downtown Guest House that hasn't been said? Even after reading all the positive reviews and seeing all the wonderful pictures, my expectations were exceeded. First off, Michelle is an excellent host. She goes out of her way to provide everything you need to have the most enjoyable time. The location is perfect. There is so much to do within walking distance, as parking in Downtown Austin can be challenging. The house has everything you need to have a comfortable stay. Words cannot describe the amazing backyard that Michelle has constructed. I have never been more comfortable in a place, than I was in this backyard. The positive energy that flows through this area, is undeniable. To say I recommend this Guest House would be an understatement. It's just that good!

Wonderful, quaint setting near the heart of Austin
My wife and I had a great extended weekend with our accommodations being the centerpiece. The guest house is small, but has a great layout and many conveniences, making it ideal for a couple or group of 3. My favorite part was the back patio which is built around a massive live oak tree and had seats of all types plus two hammocks in constant shade. The style of place is eclectic and quiet and suited us well.
Michelle was a perfect host. She took the time to show us around when we first arrived and then was unobtrusive from there on out. (She would check with us in passing to see if needed anything. )
We loved the place and will likely stay here again on our next trip to Austin.

This was perfect for a girl's trip with my daughters. It was easy walking to shops and breakfast, an easy drive or uber to activities and nightlife. It felt very safe with the codes to get into the gate and the guest house. Michelle was a friendly, responsive host and we fell in love with her pup!

Michelle was the perfect hostess. The accommodations were clean and very comfortable. The location is perfect. It is within walking distance from SoCo and downtown Austin. Ubers are very affordable should you choose that route.
