For downtime between outings, sit back and relax on an extra large sofa, connect your own streaming account on the Smart TV, and watch a good movie.

The galley-style kitchen with a 'waterfall' island opens to the living room - perfect for conversation, games, or watching a movie while you prepare a meal.

When it’s time for sweet dreams, you’ll find both rooms artfully designed with queen-size beds, eco-friendly memory foam mattresses, and high-quality linens. One of the bedrooms has an office desk and chair in case you need a dedicated workspace. The bathroom has a tub/shower combo, ample storage space, and designer fixtures.

Loved The Plum Door

We had a wonderful stay at The Plum Door and appreciated all the information and communication from the owners. The house was very clean (my #1), comfortable and in a nice, central location. Didn’t want for anything, thank you!

Thanksgiving

Loved our stay at the Plum door. It was the prefect size for my family and two dogs. We came in on Thanksgiving and was able to cook and eat at the house. Location is very convenient for the Longhorn football game, as well as the great shops on South Congress! Very dog friendly, and the fenced in yard is perfect, didn’t have to worry about them getting out. We loved our stay! Thank you

Perfect location for central to South Austin

Only needed a place to stay for one night in Austin and this house was perfect. The size and design of the house made it easy to get comfortable. The wall on one side of the living room has a really cool texture pattern that gives that mid-century modern feel. A very nice kitchen, connected to the front living room made the space feel very open. The neighborhood is historic, lots of character. There was a noise machine in the bedroom, was a nice touch, to help with sleeping. Overall the place was very clean. We enjoyed our time here and would stay again.

great place!

We have a daughter and grandkids who live in Austin. In the past we have not had good experiences with houses we have rented. From the moment we pulled into the driveway I knew this would be different. When I opened the door by first impression was how very very spotless the place was. Our grandkids came and visited during our stay and the fenced yard was great. We will for sure be back. This is a 5+ location and an easy walk for coffee and food on South Congress!

Perfect stay at the Plum Perferct

This little bungalow was very well-maintained and I felt safe during my stay as a single woman. The fenced front yard was perfect for my pups! The beds were comfortable and the kitchen had everything I needed! Very accessible to local restaurants and shops! Stayed here instead of the conference hotel and will definitely consider in the future for extended stays!

Perfect location for Austin's South Congress Area

We loved staying here. This modern home is located on a hilly and quiet street not far from great eateries, shops, and bat bridge (Congress), and is equipped with everything you need. It is cozy, cool, and relaxing.

better than any hotel

Plum Door was clean chic and charming! The location cannot be any better. Travis Heights is a residential area but a very short walk from South Congress which boasts best restaurants and shops. I loved Plum Door and would love to stay there again next time I visit Austin.
