Our Cozy, Quiet, Comfortable place in the Country - 2 Bedroom 900 sq ft.
SAFETY INFORMATION: We are a rural rental & have bee hives on the property, about 200 yards from the house. We have not had bees near the apartment or house, but it is always a possibility that they could approach. If you or anyone in your party is allergic to bees, we recommend that you chose an alternate location. Now back to the fun stuff!
We are located 5 miles north of Lockhart, the BBQ Capital of Texas and 25 miles south of Austin the Live Music Capital of the World. There are only 8 houses that can be seen from the apartment, some of them are miles away so you won't feel crowded. The views to the east are up to 15 miles. Things are quiet here with many folks commenting on how noise & stress free it is. There are pastures with horses & cattle around us, something you don't see at most vacation rentals. Being out of town this is also a great place for stargazing. There is a large deck on the East side of the apartment with picnic table & 8 chairs. Charcoal BBQ pit is downstairs.
In these times of the "New Normal" we have stepped up our cleaning & disinfecting procedures as well as keeping the apartment empty for at least 24 hours & generally 48 hours between bookings to do our best for you to have a safe stay.
We completed the total renovation of our apartment in early 2020. Everything inside was replaced.
The apartment is a second floor walk-up with all the amenities you might expect from a vacation rental. Vinyl plank flooring throughout with area rugs in the living area and bedrooms as well as blackout curtains on the bedroom windows. There are ceiling fans in the living room & both bedrooms.
There is ample parking for multiple vehicles & a circular driveway for convenience.
We are located about 7 miles from the Lockhart State Park which has hiking, golf, fishing & lots of nature.

Nice place, a lot nicer than the pictures. Very clean and great views of the horses and cows. Out in the country but still close to town. Thoughtful host with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Just be aware there are stairs to climb but great views make it worth it.
The apartment was well appointed, clean, comfortable and everything was exactly as described. We enjoyed our stay and chats with the host. It was a great spot away from the busy cities but not too far away for a night out or a day trip to the many BBQ spots within minutes to an hour.
We had the most amazing stay at this beautiful property. From the moment we walked in, we felt right at home. It was spotlessly clean, warmly and thoughtfully decorated and incredibly well-equipped. Every detail was purposefully considered.
The host was incredibly responsive and went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect, providing local recommendations and making sure we had everything we needed. It's clear Pat takes great pride in offering a top-notch experience for his guests.
Whether you're looking for a peaceful retreat or a home base for your adventures, this place has it all.
The loft was very nice, there was complimentary wine, a balcony with a beautiful view of the ranch, and the owner was very personable. We will definitely be coming back.
The family and I really enjoyed our time spent here. All of the comforts of home and it’s nice and quiet and peaceful. Would definitely stayed again. Thanks for the hospitality Pat
We spent the weekend at the river and stayed here at night! It was perfect! Beautiful views, super quiet and clean! It was just what we needed! We loved it and will definitely be back!
The property is exactly as pictured! Beautiful apartment space, extremely clean and outfitted well. The property manager is a dream to work with. We will definitely book here again!
4 of us dad's went away for a guys weekend to feast on BBQ and unwind. We had a fantastic time, environment was relaxing, house was very clean and well stocked. Lastly, Pat the owner is such a very nice guy!
We live in the city next to a busy highway.
It was so nice to enjoy the peacefulness of the country. Great views, very clean, and cozy. We enjoyed our stay. Thank you Pat!
We moved out of Austin in 1997 when we decided that Austin was simply becoming too busy. We loved it, but the stress of traffic made it not worth staying. We decided that Lockhart was where we wanted to be because it was a lower stress environment while staying close to our friends in Austin.
We built our shop building with the second floor apartment on it starting in 2000, completing in 2005. We used it primarily for friends & family but finally decided that it was time to share our little corner of heaven with others.
Why they chose this property
We chose this location because it was next door to our son, his wife & our grandsons! What could be better?
What makes this property unique
We really enjoy being out of the rat race of city living. We are close enough to shopping in Lockhart, Austin & even San Antonio while not having all the noise & traffic that goes with city living.
We have great panoramic views of the area up to about 15 miles.
We are also about 15 miles from the Circuit of the Americas Formula-1 track.
Lockhart is known for its BBQ. We have five world renown BBQ restaurants in town as well as a thriving Farmer's Market & Theatrical theater.
