Loooooved our stay! Would love to stay again, the room so clean and tidy and smells so good!I was so excited to see cotton buds in the bathroom!And needed the aloe Vera lotion, it was there, and a band aid, it was all there. This stay felt so homely and it was in such close proximity to south congress but was so quiet of a night time. Thank you for having us we loved it!
The owners went above and beyond with supplying everything you could possibly need. Beer and wine upon arrival along with nuts/candy, coffee/tea pods, creamer and lots of essentials if needed. The mattress was amazing along with wonderful bedding. We hope to stay here again when we return.
This place is not only very clean and comfortable, in a central location, and adorable, but the hosts have gone above and beyond to provide everything you need for your stay. We had excellent communication with the hosts and found the place to be just as advertised.
Super cutely furnished guest home was perfectly located for my needs on this trip. Itâs super close to congress and tons of great restaurants, it was walking distance to most of what I wanted to check out. Barbra was quick to respond and answer any questions I had and seemed kind when I meet her briefly.
This clean well decorated suite is perfect for a couples getaway! It is in a great location, the owner is super nice and truly cares about her guests. Great value for your money!
We enjoyed being a short walk from the house to get to great food and shops on South Congress. The room was well equipped and even came with beer and wine!
Lovely accommodations, well thought out arrangement for a small space. Had everything we needed and a few unexpected treats. Hosts were quick to respond to questions and provided helpful insight to enjoying local attractions. Perfect stay for the couple that wants to stay close to the action yet have a quiet retreat to return to.
We loved exploring all the fantastic shops and restaurants along South Congress. Meanwhile the capitol, museums and nightclubs were just a short drive away. So much fun!!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The hosts were very responsive and helpful. All our accommodations were exceeded and it was a great weekend. Thank you so much!
We had a perfect stay. The room has warm and cosy atmosphere. It has its own entrance. It was large, super clean, with a cool bathroom, comfortable bed, coffee and other amenities⊠way beyond our needs. The location is indeed unbeatable. Very quiet but close to many restaurants, bars, and trendy shops. Hosts wrote down a useful list of recommended places nearby. The "Car pass" for the resident-only street parking was a real advantage, we could park anytime in front of the house. Austin is a great city, South congress is for sure one of its best part.
Prime location close to S. Congress Ave. Well appointed room with deluxe bathroom. Room has mini-fridge, microwave & hot plate. Complimentary bottles of red & white wine, sparkling water, couple beers, dishes of candy & mixed nuts were very nice. Plenty of towels, wash cloths, glassware, paper products & toiletries. Wonderful lodging experience.
Walking distance to shops, restaurants and bars. Hosts are the most thoughtful and enthusiastic hosts to make your stay perfect. We celebrated our 29th anniversary and had the Time of Our Lives.
The property was very clean and comfortable. It was full of light in the daytime and very quiet at night, even though it's just one block from very lively South Congress Avenue. There are lots of places to eat, drink and shop in the area, all in walking distance. The hosts were very discreet and provided excellent instructions in advance of our stay. All in all, it was a great getaway!
This is probably the best VRBO we have stayed in and we are frequent users. Basically one room, but so much to offer. Hostess has almost anything you might need plus extras. She was readily available for any questions or concerns. The deck was great. Great location. Will book again if we return to Austin.
We have stayed at a lot of great VRBOâs but this one was exceptional. Roomy, comfortable, clean, great amenities, and lots of extras that made you feel like you were staying with friends or family. Owner was super nice and accomodating. Location was great. Literally steps from S Congress. Perfect!
Charming home close to everything but very quiet and peaceful - sitting on the porch in the morning among the trees was wonderful. The location in SoCo is ideal. Parking pass was key. Very thoughtful hosts provided great amenities. Hope to stay again when visiting my daughter at UT. Highly recommend!
My daughter and I stayed in this delightful VRBO Fabulous location, gracious hosts, comfortable, and just perfect. Barbara was the ideal host from the mineral water on arrival , snacks, and a comfortable space.
Great location. We had a blast. Plenty of places to walk.
I highly recommend this property!
Thank you Barbara!!!

Vous ĂȘtes reçu par Barbara and Robert Faires
Actors, director, producer, and writers Barbara and Robert have made South Austin their home since 1995. In addition to their innumerable theatrical shenanigans, we enjoy partaking in the singular delights of South Congress, Barton Springs, the hike and bike trail, and welcoming friends and visitors to the glories of Austin.
Within mere steps to practical and whimsical retailers, SXSW destinations, the best in live music, our home has been an idyllic place for our family. Walking to the locally owned grocer, barber, restauranteurs, and shop-keepers harken back to neighborly communities of days gone by; meanwhile were at the very center and soul of what makes Austin so unique and such a desired destination.
There is simply no better location for entering fully into the Austin experience! South Congress is the number one 'must see' destination for Austin visitors and is ground zero for SXSW and 2 miles from Zilker park, home of Barton Springs and ACL Fest. Despite its unbeatable location one block off of South Congress, Eva Street Retreat is a quiet oasis amid huge shady trees and charming homes that evoke an old-timey, small-town feeling. Your guest parking pass, which comes with your rental for the duration of your stay, ensures you street parking within steps of your door. You'll find sanctuary from your Austin romps in the spacious and elegant suite designed by one of Austin's most noted and respected architects.
