The number one most Austin thing to do. Wonderful, beautiful natural spring fed huge swimming pool and natural habitat. If you go to ACL music fest or SXSW festival and are too hot...cool off at Barton Springs! It is nearby and refreshing. It is literally 2 minutes from ACL and like 5 minutes from many SXSW activities.

Try the popcorn tofu. 5-15 minutes from the Air BnB depending on whether you walk, bus, bike or drive. More options than Fresh Plus but Fresh Plus is literally down the street (2 to 5 minutes walking max) so a bit more convenient. Very nice food options at this little local co-op...don’t let the name “Wheatsville” fool you as they have an abundance of gluten-free and healthy items.
