Welcome to Whitetail Cottage — where nature’s beauty and elevated comfort come together.Wake up refreshed in a spacious, light-filled studio featuring a well-equipped kitchen, soaring cathedral ceilings, and soothing neutral tones. Step outside to discover a shared backyard oasis, complete with a sparkling waterfall pool and an on-demand heated spa — your own peaceful retreat just minutes from North Austin.

Property Highlights

Discover a hidden gem just north of Austin — Whitetail Cottage rests on a serene, resort-style two-acre property, featuring a refreshing waterfall pool, an on-demand heated spa, and a hammock gently tucked beneath the trees. After 8 PM, the pool and spa are reserved exclusively for Whitetail Cottage guests, allowing you to unwind under the stars with soft ambient lighting setting the mood.

Surrounded by natural beauty and daily visits from graceful deer, curious squirrels, and vibrant birds, you’ll experience the rare combination of peaceful seclusion with easy access to city conveniences.

Two Custom Tiny Homes, One Peaceful Property

Whitetail Cottage shares this tranquil setting with Whitetail Loft, our second custom-designed studio tiny home, along with the owners’ private residence. Both rentals are thoughtfully positioned behind the main house to maintain peace, privacy, and easy access to shared amenities.

While the owners live on-site, your space remains fully private aside from sharing the driveway and outdoor areas. We thoughtfully balance guest privacy with the natural layout of the property, using fencing, strategic landscaping, and a discreet presence to ensure a restful experience.Please note: While we thoughtfully maintain separation, complete seclusion may vary at times. Our commitment is to create a peaceful, respectful environment where you can relax and fully enjoy your stay.

Amenities Designed for Relaxation and Connection

Fully equipped kitchen with stovetop, refrigerator, microwave, Breville toaster oven, and reverse osmosis water system

Smart TV with YouTube TV, Disney+, Netflix, and Amazon Prime

Propane grill (with propane provided)

A curated selection of board games and outdoor games

Furnished patio and multiple seating areas for outdoor lounging

Fire pit area with hammock and seating under ambient string lighting

Water activities include a waterfall pool and a spa to enjoy day or night

Whether you're seeking slow, sun-soaked days by the water or moments of friendly connection outdoors, Whitetail Cottage offers something to suit every mood.

✨ Outdoor Experiences ✨

Step into a backyard sanctuary where nature, relaxation, and a sense of playful connection come together effortlessly.Spend your days drifting between the sparkling pool and the on-demand heated spa, or escape to the hammock, cradled beneath the trees. At sunset, climb to the elevated tree platform — a private perch with a bistro table and chairs — perfect for morning coffee, evening wine, or simply savoring the views of the pool and surrounding landscape. Beneath the platform, a gently swaying saucer swing adds a lighthearted charm.

For moments of playful connection, guests can enjoy axe throwing, cornhole, washers, and PaddleSmash — all thoughtfully arranged to complement the relaxed, welcoming atmosphere.

Private Pool Time

Each day, both Cottage and Loft guests can reserve a two-hour private time slot to enjoy the pool. Outside of reserved times, you’re welcome to use the pool if it’s available. If the next time slot hasn’t been claimed, feel free to extend your swim or enjoy the space earlier if open.

Pool Hours: 9 AM – 8 PM shared use. After 8 PM, the pool and spa are exclusively yours as Cottage guests.

Spa Heating: Always included with your stay — no extra fees.

Pool Heating: Available upon request at $125 per night multiplied by the number of nights booked. (Example: two-night stay = $250 total.)

Please reach out if you have questions about pool heating options — we’re happy to help.

Great property, exceptional host

We stayed at this property while my daughter was playing at the Round Rock Multiplex. Couldn’t have hoped for better accommodations. Incredibly clean with thoughtful amenities. Between the quality of the neighborhood, the quiet surroundings, and the ever present deer, it exceeded expectations. Only more impressive than the property is the quality and responsiveness of Trisha as host.

Everything was great except it was a studio located in your backyard. Not quite as "private" as expected but it was not an issue and we enjoyed our coffee conversations

Cozy and incredibly relaxing

My family and I recently had the pleasure of staying at this clean and cozy cottage. The pool area was a great place to lounge with a book (or work) while our son enjoyed a swim. Trisha was incredibly friendly and helpful. It was an ideal location for a staycation and we look forward to booking again.

Just Perfect!

You get the whole beautiful pool to yourself!!! It was just as you see it in the pictures: clean, 2 electric waterfalls, colorful lights at night, and pool toys for everyone. The ambiance of the Edison patio lights made it picture perfect. Excellent hosts who give you ultimate privacy and are there when you need them. If you are even slightly hesitant about the level of privacy by staying in this guest home, I can reassure you, it is more and what you expect! You'll LOVE it!!! Deer every morning and evening to view on their open field. They come right up to the treehouse by the pool. This home had all that we needed. Unlike a townhome, villa, or condo, this location allowed our kid to go in and out to play without having to worry. Took a walk down the quiet road while our son biked and enjoyed seeing the homes spread out in the open area. As a teacher with specific attention to detail and one who values aesthetics and cleanliness, I give her an A++++!!!!!!

Amazing property and hosts

I can't say enough about our stay at Whitetail Cottage. The location is 5 minutes away from a major shopping center that has everything you might need. The accomodations were amazing. Where do I begin? Open floor layout, very comfortable bed (I think I slept better than at home), excellent AC and heating system, spacious kitchen with all the essential kitchenware. But best of all was the host, Trish. You couldn't ask for a more attentive and responsive host.

Peaceful cottage with wonderful pool.

My husband I had a very nice relaxing time at this cute cottage with a beautiful swimming pool and a very large yard. The cottage was very spacious and had everything we needed. The bed was comfortable and the TV had many options for our viewing. The pool was very nice and clean. It wasn't warm, but once you got in it was very nice. We saw plenty of deer and really enjoyed watching them when a sudden rain came down. We did not have much success getting the hot tub warm. We turned on the spa button and it warmed up a little bit. Over all it was a wonderful stay for a great price. I would recommend this property.
