Where should I stay for ACL Fest?
Stay somewhere you can get back to easily at night. East Austin puts you close to downtown, and you can walk to East 6th Street for food before or after the music. [CONFIRM: typical rideshare time to Zilker Park.]
Where should I stay for the Formula 1 race in Austin?
Many F1 fans stay in East Austin for its restaurants and nightlife, then drive or shuttle to Circuit of the Americas on race days. [CONFIRM: drive time to COTA.]
Is East Austin a good area for SXSW?
Yes. East Austin is close to many downtown SXSW venues and has its own bars and live music along East 6th Street.
How early should I book for festival weekends?
Book as soon as festival dates are announced. ACL, F1 and SXSW weekends are the first nights to sell out in Austin.
What's there to do between sets?
Come back to the house for the cowboy pool on a hot afternoon or the hot tub at night. It's a private place to recharge without hotel crowds.
