About this cottage rental

Entering the garden gate, you'll walk under an arbor and pass the chicken coop, the organic garden and enter your own private retreat. We have made every effort to make this retreat as green as possible. Just inside the gate you have a lovely patio shaded by native Live Oaks, another garden area planted with Texas Natives, and a large covered porch with an outdoor dining spot, and a wide bench with cushions. Inside the Casita, which is small and efficient, you have a queen sized bed, a love seat, a kitchen with granite counter tops and equipped with all the basics, an expandable dining table, a closet and a bath with walk in shower. There are handmade tiles installed in the kitchen and the bath. The dinnerware colorful Fiesta ware. We harvest rainwater and use it on the vegetable gardens, and use some for the landscaping. When available, we can supply you with some fresh eggs from the chickens ! We also stock the fridge with organic free trade Coffee and Half & Half to get you started on your day. The hot water heater is tankless on demand, the AC/heater is an energy efficient 18 Seer Mini-Split, and there is a ceiling fan to reduce the need for AC. The floors are hardwood and tile with an area rug in the living area. We use sustainable paper products, bath products and soaps. The furniture and cabinetry was locally sourced and/or reclaimed.
We have 2 fish ponds with Koi and goldfish for you to enjoy.
There is a lap pool on the property, just behind the main house filled with rainwater. You are welcome to use the pool while enjoying the cool water, the flowers and watching the wind generators spin. This is a very relaxing place.
Small dogs under 30 pounds are allowed. 2 dogs max. There is a pet fee of $15. per day per dog. (Pets are not allowed in the pool)

    Our stay at the casita was wonderful. Despite a rainy weekend, the grounds were beautiful and the casita was cozy and clean. We would love to stay there again in the future.

    This was our second time to visit The Casita and it was just as delightful as our first! If I had to choose one word to describe this well appointed tiny home, and the surrounding grounds, it would be magical. Claudia is an amazing artist and she has art all over the property waiting to be discovered. Coffee in the morning on the covered porch, and an evening swim, made for a wonderfully relaxing get away. You feel as though you are miles from the city, when actually, you're only a few minutes away. What a special way to spend our 26th wedding anniversary! Thank you, Claudia!

    Claudia’s casita is a small slice of peace nestled within the Austin hills. Great location with tons of places to visit around. My dog enjoyed laying out on the patio feeling the breeze rush through.

    The owner is wonderful very nice, very accommodating and communicates everything. The property is equally as amazing, quiet mornings with birdsong or an afternoon in the pool beating the heat and checking out all the architecture. Sunsets from the patio are also enjoyable or a thunderstorm show as well. It's a great distance to everything around while also feeling like you're away in nature. The casita is perfect size and has everything you'd want. The coffee was great! Parking and directions are easy, plenty of space in the yard to hangout and the privacy feels right. Very happy that I went with this charming property in this great neighborhood.

    The casita is on a beautiful property surrounded by art and beauty. So peaceful and quiet. Just enough outside the hustle of Austin but still close to everything. Thank you Claudia! Definitely recommend and will stay again.
