East Austin is keeping it fun. Whether you prefer drinking a cocktail by the pool at Kitty Cohen’s, roaming down East 6th at night, witnessing the largest urban bat colony in the world, or listening to live music at the historic Scoot Inn, you will never be bored on this side of town. East Austin is keeping it active. Whether you prefer to walk, run, pedal, or paddle we have you covered. For the first three, check out the Butler Hike-and-Bike Trail around Lady Bird Lake, the Southern Walnut Creek Trail adjacent to Govalle Park, or the Boggy Creek Greenbelt. For the latter, rent a kayak or SUP from one of the many rental spots along the lake and take in some fantastic views of the city skyline. East Austin is keeping it tasty. From traditional family restaurants like Licha’s Cantina, Juan in a Million, Tamale House East, and Joe’s Bakery, to quintessential Austin food trucks like East Side King, Cuantos Tacos, Veracruz All Natural, and Spicy Boys, and more experimental spaces like Suerte, Launderette, and Kemuri Tatsu-ya, your taste buds will never be left wanting on the east side. And, last but not least, East Austin is​​—always and forever​​—keeping it weird!

This was our first time renting with Austin Vacay. The house was pristine with high end amenities. The beds were wonderful. The space and layout were perfect for enjoying time in the home. There were a couple of minor issues and they were taken care of immediately. I have never had service like that from AirBnb or VRBO. I would 100% rent again and I would 100% recommend to friends and family. Thanks for a great home and a great time.

Nice, clean and spacious house. Had a little trouble at check in. Our code wasn’t sent to us prior and we were at the front waiting u til he could send it to us, took about 10-15mins. Other than that it was as described. The soap dispensers in the upstairs shower by the rooms wasn’t working. Had to use body wash.
