About this apartment rental
Want to experience what makes Austin weird and wonderful? Stay in this cozy and bright studio apartment in the wooded Cuernavaca neighborhood, less than a mile from the lake and an easy 20 minute drive to downtown Austin, or ~10 minutes to the Hill Country Galleria.
The neighborhood was established in the ‘60s and became a home for Austinites wanting an alternative lifestyle. That legacy lives today with the type of home you find here — everything from log cabins to far out lake houses to communal living spaces — and in the type of residents: friendly musicians, artists, and lake-addicted families.
Wake up and take a stroll through the peaceful neighborhood with lake views. Then drive up to Civil Goat Coffee where you can say "hi" to the resident pygmy goat, Butters.
During the day you have so many choices!
• Visit Commons Ford Ranch Metropolitan Park, a wonderful place to hike, picnic, or swim. (6 min drive)
• Check out the Hill Country Galleria for lunch and to do some shopping (12 min drive)
• Gorge yourself on BBQ from The County Line on the Hill (10 min drive)
• Or check out central Austin (20 min drive)
Once you've tired yourself out with all Austin has to offer, head back to your peaceful studio for a tranquil bath in the oversized tub, make a cup of tea in your mini kitchen, and sit out on the bench swing to watch the deer come out to graze and the people come out to sit on their front porches. Settle in for the night on a comfortable king-size bed. And if you’re party is a little larger, pull out the roomy sofa bed so everyone sleeps comfortably.
*Please note: This studio is attached to our main house, so you might hear us (and our teenage kids and dog), and we might hear you! There is space for no more than 2 cars. Kitchenette includes mini fridge, microwave, toaster oven, Keurig, kettle, basic utensils and tableware. No kitchen sink, oven, or stove. The TV in the bedroom has an Apple TV, but there is no cable television.

Unit was perfect for our stay. Nice large room with bed and kitchen area. There was a second seating area and a good size bathroom. The "kitchen" area is best suited for simple breakfast and leftovers but that was perfectly fine for us.
Host was very communicative and check in and out process was quite simple. Also easy to find from the road. Would stay here again and have let our family in the area know that this is a good one to recommend for other visitors.

Our daughter stayed here for a few weeks between her apartment leases at UT. She enjoyed the peace and serenity of this studio located in the hill country & near the Colorado River. This place is in a safe neighborhood and is well-priced making the extended stay affordable. Her daily commute to Austin was a peaceful 20 minute scenic drive. She had a good stay and she would stay here again. Also, the owner is very nice and communicated well making booking and checking in for our daughter a breeze.

This was a nice place to stay. Seemed a little far from City night life. The only TV was in the bedroom which made it a little awkward to watch with friends. No sink in the kitchen area so you had to take cups and dishes to the bathroom sink- not ideal. I’m very allergic to cats and I had a pretty good reaction to the cat dander than was on the bed comforter. Washing that comforter and shams may be helpful for those staying with you who have allergies to animals.

We had a nice evening staying at Lynn's property. It was just what we needed on our weekend trip to Austin. The place was clean, the bed comfortable, and the bath was really impressive, biggest tub I've seen in a while.

Lynnes property is wonderful. Very clean and quiet. She is a great host. Will use again when in Austin.
Complimentary coffee was very nice. Thank you Lynne

I will be a return guest because of how I titled this review. Cleanliness, privacy, and a peaceful environment are most important to me.
To be objective, my least favorite part was the tub/shower. I’m short so it was cumbersome to balance over the tall sides on the tub because the bottom was slippery. It felt like a residue was on the bottom (maybe soap/body oil buildup). I’d want guests to be cautious and careful to avoid injury.
I figured it out and this was a minimal cleanliness/safety issue but worth mentioning if this is a priority for the next guest.
Thank you for the welcome and personable stay. I’ll definitely refer others and stay again.

Lynn’s place is great! Clean, affordable, comfortable. It has the amenities you need. My daughter and I were in and out a lot, not spending lots of time in the apartment itself. Easy to get to.

Everything as advertised. Comfy bed, clean, and quiet. Also really enjoyed Patrizi’s restaurant so close - excellent. Look forward to a return trip to this Austin hill country oasis.

Our stay on San Juan Drive was close to all the activities we had planned; Barton Springs Pool, Boardwalk, Juliet’s, Maudie Milagro, Salt Lick and Hills Wine Country and Austin Country Club.
5.0
This really is a home away from home. Lynn was available if needed, and I liked knowing that. Everything you need to stay short- or long- term is provided. It's decor is cozy, comfy, and the home is private. The location is a beautiful tree-lined area of homes. It's a quiet area and it was nice to see families out in their yards. It's close to quaint community restaurants as well as major streets that make it easy to go anywhere you want to go, but far enough into the community so you don't hear traffic at all. I did see deer! I highly recommend staying here!

nicely oufitted ap't. nice big tub; could use safety bars.

I was looking somewhere peaceful and not directly in the heart of the city. This was the perfect spot. The place was clean, quiet, and overall perfect for me as I was staying by myself for a couple of days. I enjoyed the view/scenery of the general area and the commute to downtown areas was incredibly easy.
5.0
Very nice getaway spot and a great value. Everything you need for a place to stay on a trip to Austin. We'll plan to stay again the next time we come to town!

Get away from sxsw
My girlfriend and I visited Austin to see some bands play on the weekend and Lynn's place was perfect for just the two of us. Probably THE most comfortable bed I've stayed in as far as VRBO places go! Maybe a 25min drive from downtown Austin and it didn't even feel like it. Wonderful neighborhood.
5.0
Nice and cozy!
Lynn was great and very accommodating when an unexpected cold front came in and brought freezing temperatures. She blessed us with a portable heater. Also the location is awesome and something different than being right in the city.

Perfect little getaway place
Lynn and her family were very kind and tried to make me feel welcome during my three week stay. The place is perfect if you want to be near the water and in a nice area! Would highly recommend staying here!

We certainly enjoyed our stay. Nicely laid out and great location as far as we're concerned.
Great location! Very quiet and peaceful area. Off the grid and grind of the busy city, yet fairly close to everything. We had one issue that was resolve immediately. Thanks for everything.

Great rental!
Our stay at this rental was perfect for our visit to Austin! Lynn was a great host and was available for any requests that we made. The commute to the downtown area is within a 20min drive and allowed us to explore the central Austin daily. Great rental for our stay in Austin.
