Absolutely Fabulous!!!!!!

grace (The Woodlands, TX)
Review submitted: December 15, 2011   Date of arrival: November 18, 2011

WOW....what a lovely property. Our family was seeking a relaxing vacation at a property that felt like home. We "hit it on the nail" with the Eponymous Garden Bungalow. The layout and amenities of the rental were fabulous. It is very well maintained and close to all of the attractions Austin has to offer. The property owner as well as property manager were great to work with......very attentive, professional and welcoming. The next time we are in
Austin, we plan to stay there again. We would highly recommend.

I'd rather not share the Bungalow . . .

But, that would be too selfish.

This is THE BEST Downtown Austin location, in a historic, eclectic/funky neighborhood, with fun bars, restaurants, and shops, all within walking distance, all within the hottest "new" area in Austin.

The Bungalow is extremely clean, well-maintained, and comfortable, and the owners have thought of everything (wireless, coffee service, numerous amenities). Sit on the back deck overlooking the Garden, or hang out in the coolest "Grotto" in the backyard (a late 1800's shed with an amazing collection of visually interesting artifacts - a must see). Take a hot tub, or grill out on the deck. So much to do here, you might not make it out to see all that's nearby.

This is my 2nd stay in the Bungalow, and I'm done looking for a place to stay in Austin. I still really can't believe you can rent this place so affordably and be this close to everything that Downtown Austin has to offer. Walking through this neighborhood and checking out all of the creative houses, yards and gardens, and restored homes, is a really fun way to get an impression of just how neat this area is. And, the Bungalow is in the heart of it all. It's a perfect "home base" for your Austin experience.

Can't say enough about Lorne and Deborah. They are great, thoughtful hosts, and are really easy to work with. The whole experience has been a fun discovery, and I can't wait to return for some more Austin adventures.

Thanks again for everything!

Great and charming little spot!

We had a great experience at Eponymous Garden! This is a cute little house that somehow manages to be totally clean and modern but maintains a quirky, interesting style. I *loved* all the windows and light. The shared garden, of course, makes it all the more special. I loved the "grotto" in the garden... great for nighttime drinks and chit-chat. The hot tub is also a bonus, but we found we were out and about so much, we barely had time to enjoy it.

The manager was on-site and very attentive. We basically had everything we could need. (Thank you for having a coffeemaker!)

I also got a tour of the larger Victorian house, which they also rent. That is *amazing*. I would love to rent the whole house! Actually, I would rent the whole compound for an event.

In terms of location, we walked everywhere... to downtown locations, eastside locations, and to south congress (over the bridge where the bats are). It was a lot of walking, but definitely do-able if you are up for it. If not, a cab ride is close and cheap! Or you could bike.

Overall, we loved our experience. The only downside was that at times I felt like there were a lot of dogs barking outside and/or outside noises. There is not a lot of extra land around the property... it's on a regular residential street. Also, wouldn't recommend it for anyone who would want a ton of personal space. The place is small and the bedrooms are right next to each other. The garden is pretty large but also shared with other houses.

Thanks, Eponymous Garden, for a great Austin experience!
