About this property

The Foothills House, 1.5 acres, pool, hot tub, and sauna

Victorian style home on 1.5 acres with guesthouse, pool, hot tub, sauna and outdoor kitchen with endless views of the hill country from the 2nd floor.
Ideal location for weddings in the Drippings Springs and Driftwood area or just to get away from the city!
You will enjoy the quiet of the hill country only 25 min from Austin.

You have access to the entire property: main house, guest house, pool, sauna, large backyard with trampoline, ping pong table and batting cage.

Enjoy the hill country views from the 2nd-floor bedrooms as well as from the crow's nest!

The main house has 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths
The master bedroom has a king-size bed.
Bedrooms 2 and 3 have queen beds.
The 4th bedroom is in our guesthouse which is in a separate building, right on the other side of the pool. The guesthouse is a studio suite. It has a queen bed and a full futon sofa bed. It has its own kitchen and bathroom with a shower.

The main house also has a crow's nest/playroom on the 3rd floor (not counted in the number of bedrooms) with 2 twin foldable mattresses.
It can get a little warm there in the summer but it can accommodate additional guests such as children.

Note that there are stairs (with rails) to get to all the bedrooms and the guesthouse.

The outdoor area includes a pool, a hot tub, a sauna, a chicken coop, a patio with chairs and a dining table, a fire pit, a batting cage, a trampoline, a swing, a ping pong table and an outdoor kitchen with a grill, a smoker, a sink, and a small refrigerator to keep your drinks cold. :-)

Note the pool is not gated. Refer to our rules regarding the pool area waiver.

Also, it is a volleyball-type pool with 3 levels: 3 ft on one end, 5 ft deep in the middle and 4 ft deep at the other end.

You will be provided all the details to check-in a few days before your arrival. There is plenty of parking space in front of the house. We have a circular driveway that can accommodate a good number of vehicles.

Unbelievable, listing details don’t do it justice
I would have given 4 stars for listing accuracy because this place blows away the description in real life. Went there with 2 other couples. Property is AMAZING! If you come to Drip and don’t stay here, you are really missing out. We had dinner plans at a restaurant on Saturday but canceled them because the property was so beautiful and we grilled out and ate at the outdoor dining area and kitchen while we built a fire at the fire pit. Unbelievable, the best property, hands down.

Great house for family vacation
My family and I really enjoyed our stay at this property. The house itself was spacious and the rooms were comfortable and clean. The pool was the highlight for the kids, they spent as much time as they could in the pool. The also loved the trampoline and chickens. I would highly recommend this property for anyone looking in Dripping Springs. It’s also centrally located.

Charming Boho getaway
Stephanie is a wonderful host. The house is absolutely beautiful and the photos are not justice of how amazing the property is. We loved being able to hang out at the main house and have the separate apartment space for those who wanted to go to bed earlier without noise to go to. The outside patio and grill area is nice and loved having outdoor speakers when relaxing at the pool. We are also a little granola so we loved the natural products and cleaning supplies the house had. We will definitely keep this house in mind when making a trip again to Dripping Springs. Also, HEB is super near by and so was Deep Eddy Vodka distillery so that was a plus!! Thank you for having us.
