Happy House
Happy House Bungalow was super cute and comfortable. It had everything we needed and the location was great. The neighborhood had many restaurants within walking distance and close to all attractions. Kay was an amazing host. I would 100% recommend. If we find ourselves back in Austin, I would stay there again!

Had a great trip!
Kay was super easy to communicate with, and the place was very comfy, cute & clean! Loved the Aveda products, made the whole thing feel elevated. Good to know that this house is on 6th, which is busy and has road noise, but it was also so centrally located that we didn’t care!

SX oasis
We stayed at the bungalow during the SXSW festival. In addition to being adorable, it was just far enough away from the action to provide a quiet haven in the evenings, and just close enough to be very convenient. Kay was incredibly attentive and provided every accommodation we could possibly have needed. We really enjoyed our stay!

Very Aptly Named Property
Our second stay at Happy House was just as lovely and fun as the first! What a perfect spot to introduce our friends to the Austin vibe! Kay is a penultimate host - exceptionally responsive and also thoughtful in her choice of decoration and appointments. We happily anticipate our third stay at Happy House this May!

This is Austin at its finest
Kay's home is what Austin is all about! Retro, comfortable and charming with everything a visitor could want. Excellent communication from Kay in advance with detailed check in and parking instructions. The home is conveniently located to make our way around Austin. Fun restaurants, Whole Foods, and shopping all within walking distance. Definitely a home to return to when visiting Austin in the future.

Perfect Location and Wonderful Property
This is the perfect location for visiting the heart of Austin. Everything you need is either within walking distance or short drive to restaurants, bars, or shopping. The property itself is perfectly set up with two bedrooms and full baths and an additional daybed in the living room. The unit is fully outfitted with towels in the bathrooms and very well-equipped kitchen with everything you need to enjoy your stay. Our host was nothing short of amazing. Our enjoyment and satisfaction were her first priorities. Thank you for a wonderful weekend in Austin!

Charming House in a Fantastic Location
We thoroughly enjoyed our first time in Austin. We arrived on the later side due to flight delays, however owner Kay was very responsive and accommodating. Location is walkable to many areas of Austin, as well as food& beverage options, and if you consider yourself active, you can walk over to the hike and bike path which was a nice way to get some movement in after long travels.

Cute bungalow within walking distance to some great Austin delights
Four friends on a vacation. Host was excellent and very responsive. The whole experience was great, and the only reason it did not receive a fifth star on location was the traffic noise was a little much at times. Bring earplugs or white noise to cancel the sounds. Otherwise, cannot recommend this place enough.

Great for a girls' weekend
This purple house was the ideal location and size for a few friends to get together in Austin for a long weekend. While it's a bit of a walk to downtown, it's certainly doable. However, the house is quite close to Whole Foods, which was convenient for grabbing snacks and drinks! The front bedroom may not be ideal for someone not accustomed to road noise, but the back bedroom is much quieter. (And such comfortable pillows!) I would definitely stay here again.

We can’t say enough positive things about this property. Located nearly in the geographic middle of Austin, it is charming old house, very nicely furnished and decorated. Check-in was a breeze and the owner was available for any questions. We are looking forward to our next stay here.

We had a wonderful time in our little purple house. Kay was very hospitable. She left a cup full of candy for us which we appreciated and was a nice touch. The house was so cute and beds were very comfortable. The location was wonderful with a couple of cute restaurants across the street. We went to Donn's Depot one night and had a great time!! Definitely would recommend staying here if you are planning a trip to Austin!

Happy Texas Home
The Happy House really felt like a home. From the time we unlocked the door to the time we checked out, everything felt like we lived there. Our host made sure we were comfortable with everything. We had access to an ironing board, wine opener, and even extra blankets for a movie night. I could not recommend The Happy House more when visiting Austin,
