Mid- Century Retreat in the heart of Zilker

Welcome to The Hayloft - your perfect Austin retreat, located in the heart of Zilker! Famous for its eclectic dining and nightlife scene, Zilker is home to an array of bars and restaurants in walking distance, offering everything from mouthwatering Tex-Mex to innovative craft cocktails. Experience the live music culture that Austin is renowned for in nearby venues.

You'll be walking distance to the famed Barton Springs and Zilker Park, 5 minutes from downtown and 14 minutes from the airport.

The space
Beautifully decorated with a mid-century modern meets modern barn feel, you'll feel right at home in our space. The upstairs has a large dining table for entertaining and balcony overlooking our bamboo forest. In the bedrooms, you'll enjoy brand new furniture, linens, and towels, including your choice of Casper, Purple, or Tuft and Needle mattresses. You can even kick back and relax in our Nouhaus massage chair.

The kitchen is fully stocked, with a Moccamaster, Breville toaster oven, bakeware, and any other kitchen essentials you may need (plus BBQ tools to grill outside!). In addition to the full kitchen upstairs, we have a half kitchen with refrigerator downstairs as well to accommodate for less mobile guests.

We've got 2TB of data speed with GFiber, so you won't have any problems working from home.

You're also welcome to help yourself to fresh fruit from our persimmon and loquat trees, when in season!

The home has 3 Queen beds and 1 King bed, best suited for parties of up to 9 people. If you have a larger party, additional guests may be accommodated on one of our very comfortable couches or our queen inflatable air mattress.

We have a blanket "no pets" rule after a few feisty pups ate several rugs/pillows, but will consider well-behaved, non-shedding pets alongside a pet fee, depending on length of stay.

As with most large lots in Zilker, there are two houses on the property. Although I travel frequently, I use the small house as my home base and there is a possibility I may be on site during your stay - but your privacy will be maintained. And if you have a large party, feel free to inquire about renting both units as the cottage is frequently unoccupied.

Guest access
The home has a large driveway, with space for up to six cars. While street parking isn't available directly in front of the house, it is available on Kinney St, which is just around the corner.

Other things to note
We love our neighbors, and we want them to love us too! We ask that you respectfully keep partying and loud music at the house to a minimum during quiet hours. Plus, there are so many cool places in Austin to go out to - why bother staying in?!
