About this property
La Petite: a Tiny House Tucked in Nature *Hot Tub*
Just outside of Austin lies the charming little village of Wimberley, TX and the cutest tiny home retreat you ever did see. Wimberley embodies the beauty of the Texas Hill Country with gorgeous scenery, spring-fed swimming holes, unique shops, lovely restaurants and many wineries, breweries and distilleries. Our stylish tiny home sits right at the edge of town on 3 private, wooded acres. We call her La Petite and we think she takes glamping to a whole new level!
La Petite’s story begins in neighboring Fredericksburg where a local high school senior collaborated with his designer/builder dad to construct it from scratch for his senior project. We tucked it into this piece of wooded paradise and then crafted an incredible outdoor space to complete the vacation experience. We decorated our little piece of glamping heaven in a contemporary style with a bit of 1960’s flair. La Petite boasts an open living/kitchen area with lots of natural light and blackout shades, a private bathroom and spacious loft with a low profile king bed. The kitchen is fully stocked with cookware, dishes and utensils, plus a fridge, freezer, microwave and two burner stove. The home also has a smart TV, WiFi and a Bluetooth speaker. Step outside the front door and you’ll find a wrap-around split-level deck with a hot tub, stylish patio furniture, a covered patio with hammock chairs, an outdoor shower, a charcoal grill and a fire ring, all surrounded by the privacy of nature and lit by the glow of romantic string lights. It’s truly a magical space! Whether you enjoy the luxuries of modern life or aim to escape into nature, we think you’ll find your happy place right here. Come experience a few days of hill country peace and relaxation!
This eco-conscious home offers: recycling, eco-friendly soaps, detergents & cleaning products, recycled premium paper products and a reverse-osmosis drinking water system (no need for plastic bottles).
Pet Fee:
Our pet fee is $50 each for friendly, leashed pets. Please declare pets at time of booking (max 2 pets without prior approval).
VRBO NOTE: Vrbo only charges one pet fee, so a 2nd pet fee will be added after booking, if applicable.
Note: The tiny house can host two adults and is not suitable for children.

About the host
Hosted by Jennifer and Gregory
Jennifer and Gregory are two creative people living in Wimberley, TX with their daughters. Gregory uses his woodworking skills to create and maintain unique vacation rental cabins in the beautiful Texas Hill Country. Jennifer is a former public school art teacher who offers classes to children in her creekside studio each summer and spends the rest of her time working with Gregory to create wonderful vacation experiences for their guests. This tiny house is one of their favorite creations!
Why they chose this property
We are nature lovers and when we designed this space we wanted to incorporate as much nature as possible. We tucked the tiny house into a shady grove of trees, then built a two level deck that opens up to the front lawn and patio areas. Just off the main deck is a large, brand new hot tub and just off the patio is an outdoor shower. There's really nothing like showering outside under the trees! The patio has two hanging hammock chairs, patio seating and a ceiling fan. We love that the patio allows our guests to enjoy the outdoor area, rain or shine. We added a heavy duty charcoal grill and set a fire ring up in an open space just off the main space. The whole space is completely surrounded by trees and very private. It's truly a magical escape!
What makes this property unique
This space is a true retreat. It's a place to go to reconnect with nature, be away from the sounds of road noise, hear the birds, watch the deer and read a book while feeling the hilltop breeze. It's a quick jaunt into town for shopping or dining and close to several wineries and breweries, but you may find that it's hard to leave!
