Whether you’re in town for a wedding or family escape, you’ve found your home away from home. This hacienda-style home sits on 1.5 acres of rolling hills and trees overlooking the creek - close to town but far out enough to enjoy the quiet. Relax in the shade or sun with a table or alfresco dining. Gather around the firepit (as long as there’s no fire ban) for s’mores, stories, and songs. When the stars come out, look at them more closely with the provided telescope. Dripping Springs is part of the International Dark-Sky Community, an area dedicated to preserving the night sky. Make sure your stay here includes a trip to the Hamilton Pool, one of the best swimming holes in Texas. Nearby, Milton Reimers Ranch Park will let you saddle up for horseback riding, or you can hike, rock climb, or fish in over 2,400 acres of parks and open space along the Pedernales River. With nearby wineries and an olive company, you’ll feel like you’re in the Tuscany of Texas! Almost 25 miles from Austin and less than 60 miles from historic Fredericksburg and Luckenbach, this vacation home is your perfect home base for enjoying authentic Texas.

From the front door, you’ll enter the long and spacious living room with modern-rustic flooring, a comfortable area rug, and a wood-burning fireplace for cool nights. Curl up on the sectional to stream a movie on the colossal TV while you update your friends back home using the house’s WiFi. Several windows, tall ceilings, and an open design make the rooms bright and airy. The dining area near the back of the living room has the best view of the expansive backyard. Or, belly up to the breakfast bar with granite countertop on high-backed stools. The well-equipped kitchen has everything you need to make a family-style meal or just a snack for a trip to the creek. With a large central island and long countertops on both sides, there’s plenty of room for several cooks in the kitchen. The electric stove/oven with a glass stovetop and dishwasher make cooking and cleaning up a breeze. The second den space has a comfy couch and an Xbox 360.

Each bathroom has signature basin sinks and granite countertops; two are en suites.

Perfect Hideaway

We enjoyed the space to gather as a family while still having room to spread out. The deck is beautiful. We enjoyed exploring the path and the bridge across the creek. The swing, treehouse, and rocking chairs across the creek were a fun find. We loved looking at the solar lights strung around. We did not get to stargaze due to cloudiness, but we did enjoy the deck. The furniture was comfortable. We slept well. It was a really nice visit.

Beautiful back patio

Home was warm and inviting. We saw 15 deer crossing the yard to drink at the pond in the backyard. Home had everything we needed to be comfortable. Would definitely rebook!

Overview

The property was well maintained and completely filled our needs however, a couple of items. We could not get the televisions to work properly do to the poor internet. We needed to use a cellphone hotspot for the tv. The other item was the front door latch would not keep the front door closed. We would stay here again.

Great stay!

Everything was great, minus the roofing company that came over to work on the roof at 8:00am and we had no warning. Once I let Vacasa know, the roofers were gone within the hour.

Nice house

House was clean and comfortable and we had a nice time. The play area across the creek was great for the children. Our only complaint is that we never received replies from the property manager. One request was a question and the second was to report that the ice maker didn’t work. Both went unanswered.

Great location

We had a great time. Due to COVID we had to stay in place. So the highlight of our days was watching the deer come through the yard. It was foggy at night so we couldn’t use the telescope.

Home Away from Home

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This home provided a fantastic base for my family to enjoy both Hill Country and Austin. The property is beautiful - I enjoyed many a cup of coffee on the back deck. The home itself is set up for vacationers - the kitchen is well equipped, everything is easy to find and works as advertised. My kids loved taking walks to see the deer every evening and the dinosaur house. We found lots of good places to eat nearby and there is an HEB to grab groceries.
