Wild Basin Sanctuary

This is a unique property that overlooks the area known as the Wild Basin. It is very quiet and secluded yet it is just minutes to downtown. There are views from every window and a deck to watch the sunset. Both bedrooms have queen-sized beds. The kitchen comes stocked with everything you need to make yourself at home – just bring your food and you are ready to go! There is one covered parking space in the carport as well as ample parking space in front of the property. There are trails along the edge of the basin so you can enjoy a walk in your own private park! This is the downstairs unit and the upstairs unit is also available to rent. Wandering deer, beautiful sunsets and quiet seclusion await you!

We really enjoyed staying at this property! The location is beautiful and we loved seeing wildlife (several deer, including fawns, as well as a fox). We were also very comfortable and had everything we needed for a month-long stay. I would definitely stay here again!

Tranquil getaway near the hustle & bustle of Austin

Highly recommend this property. As a lifelong Austin resident, I had forgotten spots like this still exist west of the river. If you want a peaceful place to unwind while still being in close proximity to the heart of the city, this place has what you want.
