Space
Stone's Throw by Portoro is set up with your comfort in mind. It has a full kitchen, a washer and dryer, 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, TVs and ceiling fans in the living area and each bedroom. Everything you need to relax and recharge before you head out to explore all of the great nearby attractions Austin has to offer. When you walk in to Stone's Throw, you are greeted by a living area with a big leather couch along with two cushy arm chairs. A large smart TV beckons you to snuggle up while you catch up on your favorite shows. The kitchen is just off the living area, so you can cook a meal or just quickly grab some snacks without even having to hit pause. When night falls, you have your choice of three different bedrooms. Two of the bedrooms are equipped with plush queen beds and the third bedroom has two sets of bunk beds to ensure there's room for everyone. Each room has a smart TV so everyone can watch what they want. No matter which room you're in, you'll be lulled to sleep in no time with the peaceful breeze from the ceiling fans. For your comfort and privacy there are two full bathrooms, each with a shower in tub. You will be comfortable at Stone's Throw by Portoro, but the best feature this home has to offer has to be its location. Here are some nearby attractions for you to hit while you're in town: - Downtown Austin: 2.6 miles away with eclectic restaurants, vibrant nightlife, and so much more. - University of Texas: 2.8 miles away with big games and college spirit. - Lake Austin: Oyster Landing Marina and Walsh Boat Landing are just 1.5 miles away with restaurants and boat rentals. Restaurants - Hula Hut: Go for the traditional Tex-Mex with a Hawaiian twist, stay for an experience you won’t forget on the Lake Austin waterfront. - The Beer Plant: Vegan gastropub with 40 craft taps serving hearty plant-based dishes in farmhouse-inspired digs. - El Arroyo: You know you've seen their quirky sign online, so now it's time to go in person. Longtime local spot with hand-squeezed margaritas and Black Angus beef tacos.
