Lady Bird Lake, Franklin Barbecue, UT Austin, South Congress, Barton Springs. This 1 bedroom studio drops you minutes from the icons while sitting steps to Flitch Coffee, East Austin Succulents, the Walnut Creek Trail and world-famous Austin Bouldering Project. Inside: a sunny window desk, tidy kitchenette and rain-shower bath. Evenings chill on the shared twinkle-lit deck before heading out for tacos or bats. Ideal crash-pad for backpackers, couples, and weekend explorers. Adventure on.
Planning a headline-grabbing Austin weekend or a low-key creative retreat? This light-filled treetop studio delivers both: a private spiral-stair entrance rises from a cedar deck into a vaulted room trimmed in warm oak and big-sky windows, while every marquee attraction; Lady Bird Lake, Franklin Barbecue, UT, SoCo - waits minutes away.
✦ Sleeping Area: A custom platform queen anchors the space in crisp hotel-quality linens; swivel slightly, and you’re facing a wall-mounted smart TV loaded with Netflix, Disney+, Hulu and ESPN+ for effortless wind-downs. A silent mini-split keeps temps ideal, and sliding closet doors hide a luggage rack plus extra hangers for game-day jerseys.
✦ Kitchenette: Forget clunky ranges. Here a fluted-wood hutch organizes cooking basics: Keurig coffee maker, chef’s knife set, cutting boards, plus ceramic plates, bowls and glassware. A retro-mint “Schiller” mini-fridge chills local brews; a countertop convection toaster-oven handles everything from breakfast tacos to late-night pizza. Inside the closet, you’ll find a microwave and enamel cookware for quick heat-ups.
✦ Work & Relaxation: Tucked into a corner window bay is a solid-wood desk and chair overlooking leafy rooftops. Perfect for sketching your taco trail or jumping on a Zoom call with reliable high-speed internet. A low mid-century bench under the TV doubles as gear drop or extra seating.
✦ Bathroom: No tub, no fuss! Step into the glass walk-in shower clad in neutral stone tile, stocked with full-size shampoo, conditioner, and body wash dispensers. The vanity offers generous counter space, a large black-framed mirror and plush towels so you’re road-ready in minutes.

Step out of the studio, and you’re instantly swept into Govalle-East MLK’s kinetic blend of creativity and classic Austin legend. Within a five-minute stroll, you can cradle a nitro from Flitch Coffee while breakfast-taco smoke drifts across Tillery Street. Pick up a rare cactus at the “dangerous” maze of East Austin Succulents, hop onto the pecan-shaded Southern Walnut Creek Trail for a sunrise jog, or scale new routes at the world-famous Austin Bouldering Project.
Call a ride-share and, in barely ten minutes, you’re paddling Lady Bird Lake, queuing for Franklin Barbecue’s brisket, roaming UT’s museums beneath the Tower, catching the bats swirl from Congress Avenue Bridge, or grabbing midnight essentials at the 24-hour East 7th HEB. A little farther, still under twenty minutes, await a plunge into Barton Springs’ 68-degree spring, vintage-neon treasure hunts along South Congress, artisanal roasters and maker studios at Springdale General, and straight shots down US-183/71 to both Tesla’s Gigafactory and the airport.
Murals bloom overnight, food-trucks rotate weekly, and warehouse venues pulse with live music, giving you the freedom to lace together nature, culture, and iconic Austin flavor without ever straying far from home.
Walk 5 min to Springdale @ Glomar for Route 300 (every ~15 min) to Mueller, SoCo and Downtown, or 8-10 min to 12th @ Cometa for Route 5 along East 12th to UT and the Capitol. A 15-min stroll reaches MLK @ Perez (Route 18), and under a mile away Manor Rd @ Loyola taps Route 20’s high-frequency run straight to the airport. You’re also inside CapMetro’s $1.25 “Pickup East ATX” zone for app-booked, door-to-door vans.
Lime and Bird scooters plus MetroBike e-assist docks blanket the neighborhood, while Uber and Lyft (with optional Waymo robotaxis) run 24/7. Most Austin hotspots are just 10–15 min away by ride-share or bus; simply check CapMetro again if you’re visiting after mid-Aug 2025 for any timetable tweaks.
