Family-friendly vacation rentals in South Congress, Austin

BEAUTIFUL location and home!!! Extremely picturesque, feels secluded and private, the bathroom is gorgeous, all the amenities are perfect and George and Kim were amazing hosts, went above and beyond to make sure we were extremely comfortable and had a great vacation.

We had a great stay for a bachelor trip to Austin. The backyard set up was great for hanging out in the day and there’s a variety of restaurants, bars, clubs within a 15 minute drive. The main room and bathroom were both comfortable and clean. Thanks!

Steven's place is perfect. Honestly, the pictures don't do it justice. The house is tucked away on a quiet tree-lined street, and you feel like you're in your own private sanctuary. And yet, it's only a few minutes walk to some great restaurants and coffee shops. The house itself is spacious, well-designed, and stocked with high-quality products and amenities. My friends and I are cold plunge converts after our stay here! If you're on the fence about this rental, don't be, just book it!

This place is an absolute gem. Wacky and fun, it’s a house with unique charm and character, something that is increasingly rare to find on Air BnB. The bedrooms are a little unconventionally arranged so if privacy for every single bed is your main concern, perhaps it’s not for you. Otherwise you’ll fall in love with this one-of-a-kind place like we did. There were 8 of us staying for SXSW and we really felt like we had a home base. Brian was attentive, flexible and helpful throughout our stay. The neighbourhood is ideal, and walkable. In a world of grey floored rentals and bland, heartless renovations, this spacious home is a whimsical breath of fresh air. We wouldn’t have changed a thing.

Friendly and thoughtful host, great location (walkable, safe, central). My family all enjoyed their stay, the house felt very comfortable and clean and we were well provided for.

the place was amazing. Mike is a great host.

George was extremely responsive and helpful. The house was perfect for our group meeting up to come to a wedding. it's a great space for hanging out!

Great place for my daughter’s 21st birthday. Close to 6th Street. We had a great time!

We felt right at home! The house is in a great location and neighborhood is nice and quiet. Would highly recommend staying here.

Our stay at this Airbnb during our daughter's graduation at the University of Austin was absolutely fantastic. The home was not only comfortable but also conveniently located, allowing us to easily navigate the city and attend all the graduation events without any hassle. What truly set this Airbnb apart, however, was the exceptional hospitality of the host. She made sure we had everything we needed for a memorable stay and gave some great suggestions on places to eat. But what truly blew us away was her responsiveness to our request to look for our forgotten sunglasses. She found out sunglasses and promptly shipped them to us. It's these little gestures of thoughtfulness that truly make a difference and leave a lasting impression. Overall, our experience at this Airbnb was nothing short of amazing. Comfortable accommodations, a great location, and a host who goes above and beyond to make her guests feel at home.

Perfect location for our stay in Austin! Hands down one of the best experiences I have had booking a house on Airbnb. The house was clean, quite, and comfortable! Larry is very thoughtful and answered all of my questions before I thought to ask. His attention to detail, communication, and hospitality were all top notch. Flexible check-in and check-out. Just an overall good experience. Top of my list for the next trip to Austin.

This was a great place and location! Also, they communicated very well. Very easy check in and out. Definitely will look to stay here next time we are in Austin!

Beautiful private house, super modern and great WiFi. Fit my friends and I comfortably and created a good environment. It was walkable to the downtown area and was very close to a nice trail that goes under Congress Bridge, which made it great to run or walk in the mornings for some sight seeing and boating. The host was great and always responded fast!

Thank you, Aaron. The guest house is clean, comfortable, and quiet. Both bedrooms have real queen beds that are super comfortable. Also two thumbs up for great air conditioning. This was a great home base for me and my friend for an Austin long weekend of friends, music, and tacos. We hope to be back.

Christina’s place is quiet and beautiful, but a quick ride to town with lots of great restaurants and things to do. The host was responsive and allowed us to leave our luggage before checking in- making our visit much easier. 10/10

Biens place was as described. Nothing more and nothing less, so it fit our needs. Would have liked to have a checkout instruction posted somewhere in house instead of waiting until day before checkout for people like myself that like to get things done ahead of time and be prepared early. We'd rent the place again, but set your expectations accordingly.

Carolyn was the “hostess with the mostess!” Her place was kitschy- cool. You feel like you are in a museum and every corner and square inch is covered with interesting artifacts, like being on a treasure hunt finding new and interesting things at everyturn. There was wonderful amenities inside and out, and the living room was comfortable and cozy. I brought my friend that had never been in an Airbnb and she said that it was a great experience and certainly something that she would never get at your average hotel or motel. Everything was clean and cozy and just so much fun!

We felt so at home and relaxed while staying here! The place is decorated so well, lots of fun things to do in a very pleasant environment. We woke up Saturday morning and sat on the patio feeding our baby and walking around. Their cute little dog greeted us and we admired the property. Definitely recommend!

We enjoyed our stay very much. When we checked in the kitchen/trash cans were not very clean. Lynn and Jerry were unaware of the cleaning conditions due to the quick turnaround from the previous guest. When we informed them, Jerry immediately came over and cleaned everything himself. The hosts were incredibly friendly, understanding, and accommodating. The house looks even better than the photos, and the outdoor areas are more than perfect!

Beautiful space and kid friendly as well.

We had a fantastic stay at this Airbnb! The space was clean, cozy, and beautifully decorated. We loved the murals in every room! The host was incredibly nice and provided great local recommendations. The location was about 20 mins from downtown. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a girls’ getaway!

we had an amazing time at kims! we really enjoyed the pool and backyard, super comfortable beds, lots of room, and loved the house layout. the location was perfect!

Extremely solid place / host / hot tub. It was just what my group needed and it was truly a huge part of why our Austin stay was a success. Would enthusiastically recommend for anyone!

We had such a great experience here! The yard was a peaceful oasis with beautiful plant life and birds, and the little pool was most refreshing. The place was equipped with everything we needed for our stay. Jeff was friendly but also was very respectful of our privacy. The nearby train tracks are noticeable but we didn’t mind it at all. Location was perfect for walking around Buda and rideshares were fairly easy to get into downtown Austin. Very much enjoyed everything about our stay, and would stay again, we definitely recommend!
