Guest Access:

Our guests will have access to entire home and guest house for their stay.



The Neighborhood:

You’re not just staying in Austin, you’re living right in the middle of the city’s most legendary strip. This is where the energy never stops: neon lights, live music spilling from every door, late-night eats, and Austin’s “Keep It Weird” spirit on full display.



🎶 Live Music Capital: Step outside and you’ll hear it — blues, rock, country, DJs, and street performers all up and down 6th Street. World-famous spots like The Parish, Esther’s Follies, and Flamingo Cantina are literally steps away.



🍹 Drinks & Nightlife: Whether you’re into rooftop bars (The Contemporary or Maggie Mae’s), craft cocktails (Midnight Cowboy, a hidden speakeasy), or dive bars (The Library, Casino El Camino), you’ll find it all within a block.



🍔 Late-Night Eats: Casino El Camino is a legend for 3AM burgers. Voodoo Doughnut keeps the party going with outrageous sweets. Or stumble into Iron Cactus for late-night Tex-Mex.



🌇 Daytime Fun: By day, walk just a few blocks to the Texas State Capitol, Lady Bird Lake trail, or Rainey Street for bungalow bars and food trucks. The Convention Center is also a short stroll away.



⚡ Festivals & Events: SXSW, ACL, and afterparties all bring the world to your doorstep. When Austin celebrates, 6th Street is the epicenter.



Staying here is like getting a VIP pass to Austin’s energy — the perfect base if you want to dive headfirst into the city’s nightlife, music, and culture.



Getting Around:

No car needed. You can walk to 100's of great places within just a few blocks. The light rail train is 3 blocks away if you want to tour outside of downtown Austin. If you do have a car, feel free to park in the two small cars garage attached to the home.



Other Things to Note:

Lodgewell, as a property management company, has a separate reservation agreement that is available on your guest access link for digital signature upon booking. Please let us know if you would like to review in advance and we will happily share a copy.

- No parties or events are allowed on nightly rental reservations. Inquire about events/large gatherings before booking.

- Guest must be 25 or older to rent the house.

- Quite Hours from 10 PM - 7 AM per City of Code.

- The Graeber is literally right in the middle of it all - this is super fun and super convenient, but NOT super quiet.

- The Graeber is close to 160 years old. We love the charm and character of this historic estate. It is NOT a brand-new, pristine home.

- The indoor pool is heated but it is NOT a hot tub, which is perfect for a refreshing swim.
