vacation rental description
Welcome and thank you for considering our property! Heights Hideaway is a charming two-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath (1000 sf) vacation rental home in the beautiful Travis Heights neighborhood, just a couple of blocks from vibrant South Congress (“SoCo”) and its many restaurants, boutique shops, and premier live music venues. You’re also minutes by car, bike, cab, bus, or foot from the center of downtown and the 6th Street, Warehouse (4th Street) and 2nd Street entertainment districts, the Texas State Capitol, and the University of Texas. The Congress Avenue “Bat“ Bridge, which marks the edge of downtown, is just over a mile away and the Long Performing Arts and Palmer Event Centers, the hike-and-bike trail, Barton Springs and Zilker Park (site of the Austin City Limits Music Festival and the Trail of Lights) are at your doorstep. Heights Hideaway is across the street from Stacy Park, a Travis Heights landmark that practically connects the property with Lady Bird/Town Lake, and which has a great year-round free pool.
Heights Hideaway is a Spanish-inspired stucco garden home with a beautiful enclosed courtyard with fountain. (Although technically a duplex, the home shares no common areas - the courtyard in the pictures and the front yard are reserved for your exclusive use.) The interior is decorated in similar style, with tile and hand-scraped hardwood floors throughout and a living room with vaulted ceiling. The furnishings are elegant but were selected with comfort in mind -- this is Austin, after all! The Hideaway sleeps 4 guests in its two bedrooms (1 queen and 2 twins) and can accommodate 2 additional guests on the queen sleeper sofa in the living room. The bathroom is a "Hollywood bath," with a half bath (sink and commode) connected to a full bath (shower/tub, sink, and commode).
Whether you’re coming to experience the “Third Coast’s” world-class music and art scene, participate in Austin's abundant outdoor activities, or simply explore the great restaurants, shopping, and funky vibe that make Austin a top-rated travel destination and place to live, Heights Hacienda is your perfectly-Austin "home away from home."

We look forward to your visit!
