Rates & Reservations

Rental of the house includes use of the first and second floors, two kitchens, and three restrooms. The house is fully accessible by those with disabilities and ample parking is available. For planning purposes, floor plans of the house are available. The Caswell House can also provide tables, chairs, bars, a podium, a public address system, and a projection screen for a nominal fee. If you choose to use our furnishings, we will set up the room before your event and return the items to storage after your event has ended.

The Daniel H. Caswell House, located at the corner of West Avenue and 15th Street, is an excellent venue in downtown Austin for corporate and special events. Whether you are planning a wedding, reception, business meeting, luncheon, fundraiser, or other event, hosting your event at the Daniel H. Caswell House is sure to impress your guests, colleagues, and clients.

You are free to choose your own caterer and other service providers. Please see our list of Preferred Caterers & Other Service Providers to choose a caterer that is right for you. These caterers support Austin Junior Forum's annual Christmas at the Caswell House event and we encourage our guests to support them!

The Daniel H. Caswell House is owned and operated by the Austin Junior Forum, a women's non-profit volunteer organization, and all proceeds from the rental of the house go back into the community through AJF's community service. So, you can feel good about doing business with us.
