Clint and Stella Giles. We bought this land, cleared it and built our house in 1996 and have made improvements through out the years. We raised our two daughters here who have grown up and moved out but remain in the area. About ten years ago we built a cabin on the adjacent property and we will usually be there and available to our guests if needed. Clint also drives drives weekend winery and distillery tours for https://texaswinetourcompany.com/.

We found our niche of the Texas Hill Country with majestic oaks, a seasonal creek and views of the local hills, specifically Friday Mountain which has a Texas history. When we bought this property we had no idea of the growth of attractions and events that would be coming to this area but it really is one of the best locations to take advantage of not only Austin, but all of the hill country attractions, wineries, distilleries and wedding venues.

You are bordered by a 200+ acre Hindu property that are great neighbors that we seldom hear, a thirty acre ranch behind us and another 7+ acre residence next to us so lots of privacy you don't get in a neighborhood. chapeldulcinea.org is on the hill behind our house and you will hear the bells ring each time there is a wedding, which is over 500 times a year. Chapel Dulcinea is located at the The Wizard Academy which is unique to the area ( wizardacademy.org ) which also houses the CrowdedBarrelWhiskey.com tasting room. We are three minutes from the famous Salt Lick BBQ and the new Driftwood Country Club designed by Tom Fazio which has multiple celebrity land owners. We have a new HEB grocery store five minutes away and multiple restaurants in Belterra Village, also five minutes away. After rush hour traffic dies down you can get to downtown Austin in about 20 minutes for a night of entertainment. Or you can head south for a river float in San Marco or New Braunfels within an hour with San Antonio just over an hour away. Fredericksburg is an hour away and Lake Travis is only 35 minutes away. If you want a hill country dip to cool off Hamilton Pool, Blue Hole, Jacob's Well, Barton Springs and the spring fed San Marcos River are all within 45 minutes.
