About this property
Architectural Retreat on 10 Private Acres
Summary:
Tucked into ten private acres just outside Austin, The Falling Leaves is a place to slow down. This design-forward retreat blends floor to ceiling glass with expansive natural views. Wander the grounds to discover fossilized stone, hidden creeks, and seasonal waterfalls. Mornings begin with soft light, days unfold gently, and evenings settle into stillness.
The Space:
The Falling Leaves is a one of a kind architectural estate tucked into a hidden pocket of wilderness in West Austin, where design rises organically from the land itself.
Three sculptural dwellings span ten private acres, creating a four bedroom, three and a half bath retreat for up to 10 guests. Curved rooflines mirror the terrain, while floor to ceiling glass invites the outside in at every turn.
Life here unfolds slowly and intentionally. Move between indoor and outdoor living with ease, gather in light filled spaces, or step out to explore creeks, stone formations, and the natural landscape surrounding you.
Inspired by the elements of air, earth, fire, and water, the experience is both grounding and immersive, offering space to reconnect, reflect, and simply be.
Thoughtfully curated amenities support both rest and play, from a private pool and fire pit to a chef worthy kitchen, record player, and spaces designed for connection.
Select gatherings may be considered with prior approval and a separate event agreement & fee. If you are envisioning something special, we would love to explore it with you.

Beautiful house with fancy appliances! Wouldn’t recommend with small children or dogs due to the steep trails on the grounds.

Thank you for sharing your experience — we’re so glad you enjoyed the home and its upscale design details! ✨.
We’re delighted you rated your stay a 10/10 and hope you made some wonderful memories during your visit!
You’re absolutely right that the surrounding landscape includes natural trails and elevation changes, which can be a bit challenging for little ones (and pups!). Just a friendly note for future guests — this property is not pet-friendly.

The Falling Leaves is such a special place. Tucked away in the trees, it felt like a true escape from the city. The house is beautifully designed—every window has a view, and it’s clear a lot of care went into the details and exceptional guest experiences. It was quiet in the best way. I found myself really slowing down, reading, and just enjoying being still. It’s the kind of place that makes you feel calm the moment you walk in.The Lodgewell team was awesome—friendly, responsive, and made everything easy. I can’t wait to come back!

There’s something really special about being tucked into the trees, where the pace naturally slows down and every window feels like a postcard. We’re so glad you found that sense of calm and stillness here.
Our team loved hosting you and we’re thrilled to know that you felt cared for and at ease throughout your stay—that’s always our goal. We can’t wait to welcome you back for more moments of quiet, good reads, and tree-top views.
