About this property
The Chavez Social Club | The Modern Backyard Pod
Welcome to our charming casita nestled a few blocks from downtown Austin! This cozy studio is the perfect accommodation for solo travelers and couples seeking a comfortable stay in Austin, Texas.
Step inside and be greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere. The casita features a furnished comfortable queen-sized bed, ensuring a restful night's sleep.
Please take note that this is a STUDIO, which means that the sleeping area is located in the living room. The bed is a pull-out situated directly under the gray couch in the living area. It is a queen-sized bed, and the pull-out couch differs from a fold-out couch as it can be easily pulled out for setup.
The windows also have shades that can be rolled down for a comfortable and private night's sleep.
The casita also features a kitchen where you can prepare light meals as well as a washer/dryer combo (1 unit that does both) so you can return home with your laundry already done!
The casita can act as HQ as your group bounces around downtown, walk 10 minutes to Rainey St., South Congress, Town Lake, Lady Bird Lake, east side, and campus areas; without having to worry about travel distances.
Our casita sleeps 2 and has a convenient larger-than-usual kitchenette so you can get a simple breakfast, lunch and dinner on the table! (Although, to be honest, the (very popular) Taco truck next door is likely the reason we have guests coming back) ;)
NOTE: We want to make sure you're aware of the setup here! The casita you'll be staying in is located at the back of a separate front house. It's got its own private entrance, giving you a nice sense of privacy. Just to clarify, the casita is separate from the main house, so access to the backyard, pool, and other amenities are not included.
