Charming casita close to downtown Austin and UT Campus

Enjoy this luxury casita with a full kitchen and gourmet range, vaulted ceilings, Tempur-Pedic mattress, flat screen cable TV's in both the bedroom and living area, deck, patio, and gated yard. This lovely tiny home is handicap accessible (flat entry, roll in shower, wider doors) and decorated with style and care. The home is in a desirable Austin neighborhood walking distance to a huge park, shopping, and many bars and restaurants. Mere minutes to the heart of downtown Austin and UT Campus, this location could not be more ideal to experience all things Austin has to offer.

A charming quiet home with plenty of privacy.
This was my second time visiting Austin and I cannot say enough about the city and the host. She called me a few days in advance to check in and inform me how to reach her. Her home is stunning, functional, and very clean. You can tell a lot of pride is taken in the maintenance of her property. We had to have a package sent to her home before our arrival and she informed us when it was delivered. I greatly appreciated all her help in making our stay smooth and enjoyable. I would highly recommend staying at the Casita.

Jewel in Austin
My husband and I, along with our little dog - stayed in this stunning Casita in such a lovely neighborhood!! So walkable to many great eateries and large park ! The Casita was clean & modern and the added bonus - was the fenced in yard for our pup and also for relaxing in the evening ! ALL the furnishings ( interior and exterior- were super comfortable! ) Our gracious host - Virginia was so welcoming and hospitable . We absolutely enjoyed our stay and couldn’t have asked for more !!!

Beautiful Gem in a perfect location!
My wife and I had a weekend getaway and booked Virginia's property on Rosedale. The location was in a great neighborhood and the back house was in excellent condition and one of the cleanest VRBO's we have ever booked! It was a perfect size for the 2 of us and our goldendoodle! The fenced in backyard that's available to the guests is a perfect place to relax and enjoy for us 2 legged and 4 legged guests! Great communication from Virginia about surrounding restaurants and the proximity to the UT campus and downtown is excellent! We will certainly be back!

The Wonderful Casita
We had the BEST time at Virginia's Casita. First, it's located in a perfect area just a few miles from everything in downtown Austin. The location could not have been better for our visit. The Casita is absolutely beautiful!! It appeared to be very new with lots of special touches. The pictures online are totally accurate. Not only did we enjoy the super comfortable Casita, it had two private decks to sit and enjoy the surroundings. Virginia was a fabulous host making checking in and out super easy. She and her family even helped bring our suitcases right into the Casita. We had a special connection with Virginia and enjoyed some interesting conversations with her. We HIGHLY recommend this property. We visit the area every few years from Oregon and plan to stay at Virginia's Casita when we return.

What a lovely Casita!
This is a FANTASTIC place to stay in Austin. The property manager is wonderful - she offered many options for dining, sent a text during our stay with things to do on a "rainy Austin day," and was available for ANYTHING we needed. She answered all questions quickly and even turned down our bed when we arrived late our first night! If you're looking for somewhere to stay, this is the place!!!

Casita muy Bonita!
The property was perfect for our brief stay in Austin. We used the designer kitchen and found everything to our liking. Virginia was very responsive (although we had no issues). Once you get used to walking up through the driveway and gates the Casita is a breeze. A very cozy and elegant property.
