Visit South Austin

Soak up the best of Austin’s green spaces, arts and culture, and living history when you stay in South Austin. This quintessential Austin haunt opens its gates to parks like Zilker Metropolitan Park where you can take a soak in its spring-fed pool or explore by boat. South Congress Avenue amps up your stay with trendy shops, dining that blows your taste buds away, and music that demands you strap on your cowboy boots and dance. Add in cultural gems like Umlauf Sculpture Garden and Museum and Long Center for the Performing Arts–staying in South Austin means you don’t have to choose between city fun and outdoor adventure.

    Michael Munson is a native Texan who brings 25 years of experience managing small and large businesses to his current position leading SkyRun in Lake Travis and South Austin. He was inspired to transition to vacation rental management when his own experiences in short term rentals demonstrated the need for better management. He is committed to providing great rental experiences for homeowners and guests while showcasing Austin to visitors. When not managing the business, Michael is doting on his two young daughters alongside his wife, Meghan.

As in your own home, renters are of course subject to citations for noise violations, etc, handed down by public officials.
