Escape to this eight acre estate in South Austin, just a short drive from urban enticements. Built in 1954, the aptly named Writing Barn is brimming with books and creative inspiration. Make your own music around the firepit, or queue up a favorite playlist with the WiFi connection. Inviting trails weave through the property, dotted with seating areas ideal for a picnic, a journal entry, or a nightcap. Enjoy the privacy of a lofted living area. Stock the fully equipped kitchen with groceries and share meals in both the interior and exterior dining spaces.
Find eclectic and comfortable seating inside and out. Between the great outdoors and the engaging interior, this cabin home lends itself just as easily to birdwatching as it does to serving three-course meals. On chilly evenings, utilize the two outdoor heaters with a mug of tea in hand. Walk the 8-acre grounds and connect with the rest of your group - up to 20 guests can stay on site with additional rentals. Massive bookshelves in the main living area could keep you occupied for months on end. If your creative energy is more collaborative, open up the folding tables and chairs for additional workspace.
**If traveling with a larger group, consider also renting Cabin-Style Stud and Book House
