It gets hot in Austin, like REALLY hot. Beat the heat with a morning dip at Barton Springs Pool— Austin's most famous outdoor swimming pool filled entirely with water from the nearby natural springs. This pool is why we moved here. You won't want to miss it!
No visit to Austin is complete without a trip to South Congress St. Start the day with a coffee at Jo's followed by a photo in front of the "i love you so much" mural. Home Slice Pizza and June's are great options for lunch followed by a stop at Maufrais to get a custom cowboy hat.
Who doesn't love a tiki bar? Who doesn't love a tiki bar that also serves burgers and soft serve out of an airstream?! Post meal head next door to Austin's most famous dive bar Deep Eddy Cabaret.
Spend an afternoon taking in all the sites at this historic Italian villa turned sculpture park.
Learn to line dance while listening to live country music at Austin's most popular honky-tonk bar. White Horse is also conveniently within walking distance from our hotel block.
If you didn't take a picture, did it really happen? Snap a retro photo for the gram in front of this popular mural and then take some time to explore South 1st. We recommend vintage shopping at Bloomers & Frocks and grabbing Mexican food at Fresa's.
