Neighborhood

Travis Heights is characterful neighborhood in south central Austin. It sits on the southern shore of Lady Bird Lake, with the St. Edwards neighborhood located directly to the south. Travis Heights developed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries as Austin's first planned urban community south of the Colorado River.

It may be just outside the city center, but the neighborhood has a plethora of buzzy restaurants and trendy bars to experience. You’ll find the best collection along South Congress Avenue, but there are plenty of popular spots within walking or biking distance.

Travis Heights is full of unique homes and apartment offerings. There are contemporary apartments, grandiose mansions, and humble bungalows all calling the area home. Unless your rental is near the water, you’ll want to get out along the boardwalk to get a glimpse of the city, or enjoy the southern climate at one of the Stacy Neighborhood Parks.
