The cabin was super cute. The hiking around the area was great. There were some eating places within 20 minutes close by, but we brought food and just cooked on site. The Boyds(the owners) were super nice and very helpful. Internet worked great. The beds were very comfortable. We had 5 people and were very comfortable with a place for everyone to sleep. Everything was very clean. My favorite part might have been the many hummingbirds coming to the porch for their daily sustenance. Highly recommend this place if you are looking for a quiet, hill country stay close to many state parks.

Unique and Beautiful

This place is one of a kind. Owners live on property, it's more like a bed n breakfast. So expect that. Rock house, beautiful scenery, just gorgeous. Would definitely stay again. Absolutely a 100% southern hospitality.

Most relaxing vacation EVER!

My son and his friend(both17), me and our dog Pixie absolutely enjoyed our stay. Beautiful scenery with a great view from the little house with birds of all types (had not heard a Whippoorwill in YEARS but did our first night there) but my favorite were the dozens of hummingbirds that buzzed around due to the feeders on the porch. I say in a chair hammock every morning to watch them and enjoy the view. Dave and Patricia were so very nice and their property was . A little out in the country and very secluded but I loved it. I highly recommend.

Beautiful, quiet setting; comfy cabin

My husband and I wanted a comfy place to relax during our 5-day hike-the-hill-country get away. Charming stone cabin with lots of windows and porch that overlook huge expanse of undeveloped tree covered land. The kitchen is well-equipped as is the whole cabin. Comfy bed. The cabin is perched on a limestone bluff. Stairs lead to creek access. Many scenic parks are a short drive away!

So peaceful

House was very nice. David and Patti were very friendly and welcoming. They were on property if we needed anything but we were left alone and able to enjoy our escape. If you want to get away from crazy city then this is the place to go. So peaceful and relaxing. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Amazing as always

We have stayed here 4 times and will continue to do so for as long as they’ll have us. Our expectations for a quiet, pleasant experience are consistently met. The location is perfect for relaxation and adventure. The real gem of the property is the Boyds; you’ll leave as family.

About the host

Hosted by Patti Boyd

Host profile image
David Boyd, retired from UT Austin. Patti Boyd, semi-retired from self-employment. We both have lived in Austin area for about 50 years, and have lived at this property since 1995.

Why they chose this property

It is incredibly beautiful, truly, and a very natural area. Austin seems to grow daily, but our place here, only 30 miles from downtown, feels a world away. It is very a peaceful, relaxing place to be, a real getaway from the hustle and bustle.

What makes this property unique

The view from the cabin is phenomenal. Sitting on the porch and relaxing in the swing or glider and enjoying the view of Cypress Creek canyon 120 feet below is a mind-altering experience. It really takes you out of yourself for a bit. If you're a bit adventurous, you can climb down the custom-built iron staircase and trail to an incredibly beautiful deck built on a boulder overlooking Cypress Creek. It feels very much like a giant treehouse, with the sound of the falling water running down below.
