About this property

Butler Cabin at The Homestead B&B

Welcome to the historic Homestead at the Dripping Springs. This house is one of three available lodgings each of the three dwellings are unique to their time period, style and setting. Clara's House and Willie Mae's Cottage are all part of the Homestead at the Dripping Springs and can be reserved at the same time to sleep 8 people. The property contains the original dripping springs for which the town was named. The Homestead is centrally located in the Historic Mercer Street District of Dripping Springs, close to shops, wedding venues, wine trails, parks and beautiful country roads.

Come back to a simpler time at The Butler Cabin. Relax on the porch with your coffee or under the shade of the giant oak fenced corral where a swing, table and chairs and washer pitching remind you of days gone by. The cabin has an antique high-back wooden bed, rocking chairs, small kitchenette, stand up shower and an antique wardrobe reflecting the time period.

Includes free continental breakfast, AC, flat screen TV, WIFI, queen-sized bed, hairdryer, and a snack basket.

Our second stay at the Butler cabin, just perfect for us. The location is right where we want to be, the cabin is well appointed, no detail left out, stocked with provisions and Sherry makes the best breakfast breads! Would always recommend this property.

Historic lodging near downtown Dripping Springs

Loved our stay in the Butler Cabin. Great location, within walking distance of ‘downtown’ Dripping Springs. Enjoyed reading about the history of the cabin and town. The cabin and furnishings were fresh and clean. We appreciated your hospitality and hope to stay in one of your cabins on our next trip to Dripping Springs.

Better than expected!

We needed someplace to stay after our daughter's wedding, and this was not any more pricey than a hotel but much more quaint and enjoyable. Quiet, cozy, and had everything we needed and more! Great communication, yummy homemade bread, I would definitely stay again and explore the area.

Nice Anniversary weekend!

We had an amazing time at the Butlers Cabin. It was great place to spend a few nights together. There is a coffe shop and store within walking distance. I love the chairs and swing in the back, very peaceful. I recommend completely.

Beautiful cozy cabin

We Loved Butler Cabin! It has such a cozy homey feeling about it, and the location is Wonderful! Be sure and read the history on the cabin that Charlie and Sherry have put together along with Restaurant menus and things to do around Dripping Springs (which is really helpful for newbies to the area) We were very surprised with Delicious homemade breads left daily in our room.

Charming Cabin - Perfect location

We had a high school reunion, and we stayed downtown Dripping Springs. We were able to walk to everything on Mercer. The cabin is adorable. The host left baked goods, and the interior was cozy and comfortable. The host quickly responded. Overall it was a wonderful experience.

Great location and very comfortable

Because of the possibility of flooding, I called and found extremely nice people that gave us options. We stuck to our original plan and had a wonderful time. The homemade breads were delicious. The grounds gorgeous and able to get down to the actual Dripping Springs. So nice to walk to any place in town from our wonderful Butler Cabin. Bed, bathroom, table and sitting on the front porch were all very comfortable. I would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Tucked Away Gem

Butler Cabin at The Homestead B&B was a delightful step back in time. From the antique furniture to the creaky wood floors, from the history and restoration of the cabin to the surrounding history of the area, staying here was a treat! The homemade breakfast breads were a great personal touch as well!
