This was such a fun little find! We discovered this place when looking for somewhere to grab a…read morequick drink before our show at the adjacent Alamo Lakeline. You wouldn't think a bar in the lobby of the Aloft could be so trendy and fun, but we had a blast and some great and somewhat reasonably priced drinks to boot! The decor is a lot of fun as was our bartender, Sam! He was fantastic at being honest about which drinks were actually worth getting off the cocktail menus and he didn't judge when I ordered the "No Ducks Given" just for the floating rubber ducky! We ended up here because my friends were specifically looking for dirty gin & vodka martinis, respectively. I'm a bourbon girl myself, but Sam made some mean martinis! I also had the Tom Collins w/antique barrel-aged gin that drank more like a scotch and was fantastic! The only thing I would say is the spinach feta "pretzel" here was not good and definitely not at all worth $7. It was definitely the "pop in a microwave" variety and wasn't even really a pretzel, it was more like a p'zone if anything else. So can't rec that here, but the drinks were great as was the company of our fellow "barflys" for the evening!

A fantastic space with a wide open roof top, look at the sky, type of area. The event had drinks, small bites, and a DJ. There were a few venders... jewelry, a party planning biz and such as well as raffle prizes... some pretty big prizes too. The event started at 7 and it was just about 100 degrees outside... it was hot. But that didn't stop people... the rooftop venue was packed with all kinds of people from sophisticated to hip and young to old! The heat really didn't stop... the sun went down and the rooftop got more packed... there were A LOT of people up there... all for a great cause though... so we stayed... drank a few more "Summer Luvin" drinks and sweat... mingled and enjoyed... the more we drank the less the heat mattered... funny that way! Seriously the venue is a wonderful spot for this kind of social event... it was super nice, big, open rooftop patio with seating, about 1/4 covered and would have been perfect in less heat... but even so... we really enjoyed it. The crowd was very mixed with those trying to be Austin elite (some a bit too hard)... those that were Austin elite, but didn't care they were, those that wanted everyone to know they were elite period, those there to support the event, and those just beautiful people in a wide range of dresses, suits (yes even in that heat), jeans, high heals, tennis shoes, and all... I am a people watcher and it was GREAT fun! I look forward to my next event held at the Vaughn and will seek it out... especially if it is at a cooler time of year!

There are not enough words to describe how perfect and magical our entire experience was with them. Their incredible attention to detail, impeccable communication skills, and creative ability really turned our vision into a complete reality. The owners/floral providers, Moya and Colin, and Kayla, the Director of Events & Sales, were SO thoughtful and considerate in everything they did to make our wedding happen. Our first impression of those people was very cheery and kind; that was precisely how the vibes were until the very end of it all. They are exceptionally good at what they do, and their style comes with all the "Austin" feels. They brought the best of Austin into this beautiful, preserved, once-was train station and had it blossom into a dream come true of a venue for us. Colin, Moya's husband, is also the in-house florist (Native Botanicals), and he won our hearts with his flower designs. They were absolutely stunning, and having his support as part of the wedding package was icing on the cake! He really does take the time to hear you, understand your wants, and deliver to a T. By the way, flower beds and lush green plants surround the venue's backyard, which was one of the many reasons we chose the venue. We got married facing our backs to the flowers, and we're telling ya, that was a beautiful sight to see! Our photos turned out amazingly; thanks to Colin and the S.S. family for taking such diligent care of the property the way they do! Overall, the place is unique and full of passion - just like the people who work there! Our guests are STILL raving about how fantastic of an experience they had at the wedding and how perfect every detail of everything turned out! We could go on forever about this beautiful venue, the people, and the service, but you need to have your turn booking your date before their calendar fills up! So, bring your wishes to them with all your confidence, and they will, without a doubt, make them into forever memories you will be SO proud of. Springdale Station, we are forever grateful for y'all. Much love. Ali & Jennifer #kittenplanforevermore

Who knew a library could be this much of a destination?…read more During our Austin visit on Sunday, September 13, we explored the gorgeous Austin Central Library, right beside Lady Bird Lake--and wow, this place is an architectural gem! Spacious, spotless, and beautifully designed, it feels like a library meets urban oasis. The top floor is the star of the show, with a mini park, solar-panel shade structures, and breathtaking views of Lady Bird Lake. There are cozy reading nooks, spaces for games, a whole floor for kids, plus a cafe and gift shop downstairs. Parking is conveniently available below. We came for books but stayed for the views! San Antonio, take notes? I'd definitely make another stop here on our next Austin adventure.

This is the type of structure and experience you'd expect in NYC, London, and the likes. Absolute perfection. I love the way the book sections and categories are divided and set up on various floors. Each floor is crazy spacious with loads of comfortable reading areas, tables, areas for rest, etc. There are private meeting rooms, a cafe, gift shop, an art gallery, rooftop deck with crazy good views of the city and Ladybird Lake, a children's library called 'Wonderland', an events center and so much more. The librarians and staff are extremely helpful, friendly, and not bothered if you need assistance locating a book. They have almost everything you could possibly be looking for to read whether for research or fun. Access to laptops and computers. Lots of charging areas for media and phones. The library is a true marvel. It makes me happy to see and know that ALL are welcome, especially the unhoused who would otherwise not have a place to go in extreme temps. The bathrooms and entire library are spotless and meticulously clean. We're so very lucky to have this amazing library in our city.

Caswell House and the team behind it (shoutout especially to Kelly Treybig) were a dream to work with. The rates are affordable, and the venue is very accommodating, even with our more DIY approach. If you're looking for an event venue in Austin, Caswell House is exceptional. Highly recommend!
