You have option of a private entrance and there is also a private full bath. B&B in a quiet family setting, bordering a 100 acre nature preserve. The neighborhood has many large mature trees and our yard is xeroscaped and a little wild . We are within walking distance of Starbucks and a local farmers market on Sundays. We are also close to two natural food stores( one and two miles away). Among us is a successful local artist, Dale Whistler, you will find his sculptures and murals all over Austin! A musician and film maker, Rudi. A wondeful soul, Lauri. She works for Easter Seals and is an incredible dancer and a fine teacher of it also. Come join us in all this good living! We have a fully equipped kitchen to share, very happily as long as you clean up after yourself . thank you.
We are close to Central Austin (3 miles) and have an easy access to all routes, east west and north. Located on a bus route that heads straight through downtown, we are 5 miles south of the river. It is also easily accessed from the airport (15 min. drive with no traffic).
Top of the line tempur/pedic california-king mattress. The room comes with a medium sized frig., elec. kettle, and a toaster oven. Large walk in closet and great patio garden area. Sliding glass door looks out into our beautiful yard. We have a garden and water fountain that attracts many birds , butterflies and dragonflies. And right out the back gate there is a 100 acre forested area filled with trails to enjoy by foot or bike.

  • The bedroom is gorgeous and overlooks into their stunning backyard making you feel as if you're at getaway retreat. Jill was very sweet and communicative. We didn't feel neither burdened nor bugged by hosts as you can feel at some B&Bs, but felt like we had our own privacy which was nice. Great place to stay and convenient access to highways for visiting downtown, townlake and UT. Will stay there again in future visits to Austin.

    Lovely home in a quiet part of SW Austin. Very comfortable & private. Jill is a wonderful host & made our stay special. A fine alternative to a sterile motel stay. The park-like yard leading to a real park was a treat & make this place a great value.

  • lovely peaceful oasis nestled within the extended urban area. It was fun to hear the doves in the morning and enjoy the breakfast cereal and fresh fruit awaiting us when we arrived. Anyone looking for a relaxed space and cosy backyard as an alternate to a traditional hotel room ought to consider this quiet alternative.

  • Jill has a very peaceful home and the room we stayed in was clean, spacious, relaxing and private. This is a great choice if you're going to Austin.

  • My room was very spacious, comfortable and peaceful. Jill had fruit, snacks, coffee and tea waiting for me when I arrived. She even asked what kind of milk I liked and had a carton of it in the mini-fridge in the room. The bath products were organic and smelled great. I really enjoyed my stay here and would recommend Jill and her space to others. It has a nice vibe.

  • My mother had such a great stay. She said the room, and especially the bed, were quite comfortable. Thank you!

  • As described, the room was very spacious and comfortable. It was especially nice to have sliding glass doors onto the charming back yard, with my own little patio. Beyond the gate one could step onto a trail that led into a wonderful forest with meandering footpaths. The house itself, the occupants, were all wonderful; an oasis in what appears to be an older housing development on the outskirts of Austin. It was about 8 -10 miles into the downtown/university area, and traffic could be pretty gnarly - making the drive rather tedious. Jill was a great host, making me and my dog feel very welcome, no worries; staying there made the trip to Austin a pleasure for me, in spite of the traffic.

  • Jill's place was very cute and I especially enjoy the trails in the back of the house, which were just steps away. Walking/ jogging through the trails is good way to start your day. Jill was friendly and made me feel welcome. I highly recommend the place.

  • It was such a lovely stay. The room was very spacious, very comfortable king bed, awesome work desk (which i don't think is in the pictures) and beautiful backyard which is more like peaceful sanctuary, running waterfall, etc. The property is butted up against a beautiful 100 acre preserve which has wonderful walking trails. The host Jill is great, and is an amazing healthy cook...i was lucky one morning and had some of her chia seed, oatmeal, raisin, apple walnut breakfast. amazing....another morning i walked out to fresh kale, apple, lemon, ginger.....not sure what exactly was in it but amazing fresh juice! Thanks Jill for opening your home and the great stay, julien and gabe are amazing kids too!

  • Spacious room, very comfortable king size bed. We did not interact too much with the host because of our schedule but she was attentive to our needs. Our stay was during the SXSW festival, public transit system (bus) was just down the street but the commute was long (from 45 mins to 1h30 to get to downtown/convention center) and it stopped at midnight. It might not have been the usual schedule. Overall a good first experience using Airbnb !
