Our stay was excellent. Scott place is on the top of our list, everything was perfect, from the super coziness of the apartment to the welcoming sprint of the owner and the location of the property. I would definitely stay here again on my next trip to ATX.

I can't express how awesome this property is as it's truly an experience. Having lived in Austin, I'm familiar with most of the city but had rarely been in this neighborhood as it's all residential. The area is extremely quiet, safe and lots of dog walks and huge trees. The property itself is exactly like the description and photos. Zero issues and only great surprises (such as peaceful breakfast nook and auto ice cubes!). Upstairs shower was a dream as well as the master bed in the loft. I've stayed many places and this by far is my favorite. No matter what you're doing in Austin, this place is close to everything and a beautiful space to unwind.

This is my second time staying at this house. It's perfect! Great neighborhood, an incredibly comfortable bed, and all the amenities you could want. I travel by myself and feel totally safe - I usually don't sleep when I travel alone, but I don't have that problem here. Scott is super communicative and nice. If Scott will have me back, I'll stay here again.

We loved our stay at Scott’s guesthouse! It was in a great location and it was perfect for my partner, our pup and I. Our pup even got some play with with Scott’s wonderful puppies :)
The house was clean and private and we can’t wait to stay there again when we visit Austin.

My wife and I stayed at this property for the CapTex triathlon with our two older dogs. The house is a guest house behind the main property and is a really beautiful two story spot. The property owners were the nicest people and shared with us recommendations of places to go check out for food and were great to chat with while taking the dogs in the backyard. The location is really easy to get to anything off Lamar as well as Congress and is in a quiet neighborhood that we felt very comfortable in. We would definitely stay here again when in Austin.

This was the second stay at this property for my wife and I and, like last year, we had a terrific time! The property is clean, well-appointed, and quiet. The location is ideal for south Austin and downtown Austin activities. Communication with our host was easy and Scott was courteous and helpful. We are already looking forward to next year's visit!

This is our second time staying at Scott and Cindy's place and we will definitely stay again whenever we return to Austin. The house is so comfortable, has nice windows but privacy and our dogs love it too. Our dogs even have their own little yard area. Scott and Cindy are great hosts. We love chatting with them and seeing their cute dogs! The house is in a great neighborhood for walking and close to so many great restaurants and coffee shops. We were so comfortable leaving in our dogs in the unit when we ventured out. The unit is contemporary and so nicely decorated and equipped with great appliances. Thanks for a great stay!

We enjoyed our stay! The home has everything needed and is beautifully designed. Hosts were hospitable and available if we needed anything. There is a main sleeping loft space with a huge new bathroom. There is an additional private sleeping area (futon) available in the study with it’s own half bath. The hosts kindly set up the futon for us since we needed both sleeping areas. There is also a nice outdoor space in the back with lighting and seating. Lots of comfortable options to gather and relax. Wifi was good too.

Great stay at Scott & Cindy’s rental. Proactive communication pre-trip and then found the rental to be even better than the photos. Likely the best-stocked place we have stayed. Some nice pieces of art as well. This will be our first choice for Austin housing on future visits. Great hosts!

We visited Austin for a long weekend to attend the ACL music festival. We were so pleased with the guest house and could not have had a better experience!! The kitchen was well-stocked, the bathroom was enormous, the bedroom was tranquil, and the backyard was divine. Without a doubt we will stay here again if we return to Austin. Scott was a very communicative and welcoming host. Five stars all around!!

Every single detail about our stay was outstanding - the location, the decor, the cleanliness, the amenities, and the host.
We were in Austin for Austin City Limits and this location provided us with a quiet place to stay (with off-street parking!) while also being within walking distance to all the greatness that is Austin.
Scott was a great host and made sure everything about our stay was perfect throughout the weekend; he definitely went above and beyond and we are so grateful. We will definitely recommend his place and be repeat customers when we head back to Austin.
