The heart house was perfect for our Austin stay! 5 minutes walk to Barton Springs in a beautiful neighborhood. House was pretty, clean, bed was comfy, and the condo had everything we needed for our stay.

The Heart House worked wonderfully for our stay. It had everything we needed and is a cozy place. Cynthia & Peach were great at communicating, very friendly and kind, and were always helpful. The deck was lovely in the morning for coffee or relaxing late evening after it cooled down.

The spot was perfect for a weekend getaway with my adult daughters. Zilker Park and Barton Springs are a few of our favorite spots in Austin so Cynthia’s place was in an ideal location. We loved having coffee on the patio and easy access to some many restaurants and activities.

Great location, easily walkable to Barton springs and the neighborhood felt safe. I ran solo and felt totally comfortable. In addition to the parking spot, there was a lot of street parking available.
Cynthia was very kind, the place was exactly what was listed/expected. We would definitely stay here again!!

Excellent place to stay at especially since it’s very centric and you walk to many places or short drive to downtown area. Highly recommend this place if Barton Springs is in your to-do list. The hosts were extremely friendly and responsive. Will definitely boon with them more in the future. 5/5 experience.
