Notes from the host

Creekside Bungalow

Summary:
Welcome to the Creekside Bungalow, situated along the banks of East Bouldin Creek and a stone’s throw to South Congress and First Street commercial districts. Curated exclusively for our guests, the space is designed to be comfortable, stylish, and practical for short or longer-term stays. Perfect for up to 4 people looking to be in a thriving neighborhood and at the center of what makes Austin unique and memorable.

The Space:
Please note, all guests staying at a Portoro home are required to sign a rental agreement.

You'll have the entire place to yourself. This charming, residentially-styled 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom is designed to make you feel right at home. Plush beds, a comfy couch, smart TVs, brand new appliances, and a BONUS basement workout room, office desk, and laundry are just a few shiny features offered.

Enjoy the front porch for a morning cup of coffee on the cushioned bench or for socializing after a day of shopping on South Congress. NOTE: this is a fairly new property. The yard has not been completed yet. Also, it's an open property and doesn't have a fence.

Sleeping arrangements include 2 private bedrooms, one with a king bed and the other a queen. 400 thread-count sheets and bedding will keep you cool or warm depending on the season.

The newly remodeled kitchen includes a stovetop, oven, microwave, dishwasher, and smaller appliances. The space is well stocked with all the equipment and utensils you need to prepare a great meal. Sit at the high-top 4 person dining table for homecooked meals or when you have some of Austin’s favorite flavors delivered to your doorstep.

The bungalow has a large bathroom and walk-in shower upstairs and another smaller bathroom with a stand-up shower on the basement level. Both are stocked with high-quality towels, toiletries, and essentials.

The living room features a large screen smart TV with YouTube TV, and a sectional couch along with an assortment of board games. Ultra-fast internet keeps the bungalow connected so guests can work, stream, or surf from any location.

Just outside the kitchen is our sunroom/mudroom that was enclosed to provide easy access to the bonus basement area downstairs. This lower-level area features a full standing desk set-up with a thunderbolt docking station and dual monitors, mouse, and keyboard for anyone needing to break away from the group to get some work done.

Most unique to the bungalow is a dedicated workout area, also located in the basement. Keep up with your exercise routine using our provided mats, free weights, and a weight bench - all in the privacy of your own Austin short-term rental. NOTE: Stay Local Austin can connect you with some local fitness gurus for in-home classes too.

Lastly, a full-size stacked washer and dryer with all the laundry essentials is also located downstairs.

NOTE: We follow the CDC and Airbnb Recommended Cleaning Guidelines. You can rest assured this property has been completely sanitized prior to check-in.

Also, please review the LONG TERM STAY - ADDITIONAL FEES section below. Stays over 29 days are waived from paying the State and Local Hotel Tax. However, there are additional fees we need to collect for damage coverage and housekeeping.

LONG TERM STAY - ADDITIONAL FEES FOR STAYS OVER 29 days.

In compliance with our policies for long term stays, we need to collect a few additional fees from you before guaranteeing this reservation. Please see below and reply here with any questions. Your guest ambassador will reply shortly and be available to assist you where needed.

Additional Cleaning Fee:

We do require additional cleaning fees for guests staying longer than 3 weeks. Your Guest Ambassador will coordinate the cleaning schedule for a minimum of once every 2 weeks. You can request cleanings more frequently if desired. Additional cleaning charges will be sent using a payment request or resolution request, immediately following the cleaning.

Guest Access:
We offer convenient keyless door codes for self-check-in. Portoro Homes uses smart locks with check-in details provided 48 hours prior to arrival by email and text message.

• Early check-ins or late check-outs: If the property happens to be ready earlier than the standard 4 pm check-in time on the day of your arrival, in most cases an early arrival option may be available when confirmed with the main office. Late check-outs must be confirmed with main office staff prior to the date of departure.

The Neighborhood:
Many residents are committed to preserving its historical integrity and the eclectic vibe of the neighborhood and homes. Come stay here for a true dose of Austin living at its best! Just 2 miles to downtown, 5 miles to the UT campus, and a 15-minute drive from the airport.

Here you will find eclectic stores and vintage goodies next to ethnic restaurants and buzzing coffee shops. Notable spots include:

Roadhouse Relics “home of the “Greetings from Austin” mural”.
Bloomers and Frocks
Polvos
1417
Elizabeth Street Cafe
Bouldin Creek Café- a completely vegetarian restaurant
South First Food Court
Winebelly

Getting Around:
Walk to South First or South Congress respectively. So much of what you will need during your stay is a stone's throw away. Austin offers plenty of transportation options. Ridesharing, micro-mobility, and mass transit are available everywhere. The airport is just 15 minutes away.
