About this property

Colorful Artistic Cabin in Canyon Lake! Only 5 minutes from the lake and river!

Enter a colorful and inspiring world of warm coziness and luxurious splendor. This gorgeous space is beautifully furnished with tasteful artistic touches. It offers peace of mind, tranquility, spaciousness, and inspiration! The Artistic Cabin features a fully equipped kitchen, washer, BBQ grill, fire table, and a new smart TV. Located right in the heart of the Texas Hill Country, we are only an eight-minute drive from Whitewater Amphitheater and Tubing on the Guadalupe!!

Our Colorful Artistic Cabin features its own small, open yard space, complete with a fire table and chairs, a charcoal grill, and a bar table with stools. It also has parking for up to two vehicles and potential parking for truck and boat trailers. This is a quiet and safe residential neighborhood.

Centered in the heart of Canyon Lake and close to restaurants, bars, White Water Amphitheater, grocery stores, and more, we are only a five-minute drive from the best swimming spot on Canyon Lake and the Guadalupe River and only twenty-five minutes from Gruene, New Braunfels, and Wimberley. The gorgeous Canyon Lake Dam is just a one-minute drive or a ten-minute walk away. Visitors come from all over to walk, cycle, run, or dance across this 1-mile-long dam. The views are spectacular, and the best swimming spot on the lake is at the far side of the dam. (PLEASE NOTE: Some closures are in place due to low water levels; please message us for up-to-date information.)

The Colorful Artistic Cabin is tucked away at the back of our private four-acre property, nestled among the trees and unnoticeable from the main road, making it a private and tranquil retreat.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

The cutest property I've stayed at in Canyon Lake. So conveniently located and the house was very cosy and enjoyable. Clothesline and clothespins were a plus with wet swimsuits and towels. I was shocked to see they also had filtered water, looked like a reverse osmosis system by the kitchen sink. We really enjoyed our time here. So nice to stay at a place where everything felt taken care of!

This cabin is delightful and comfortable and cute! It is best suited for 2 people. Our group consisted of 2 couples. The upstairs bed was wonderful but the second bed was a very uncomfortable air mattress that would not hold air. Other than that, it was a lovely get away!

Quick trip for a wedding and we had everything we needed. Nice patio area to enjoy a nightcap before bed. Stairs are a bit steep so if you don't do well with steps probably not suitable, main sleeping quarters and bath are upstairs. Fully equipped kitchen. Its a bit hard to merge out of driveway so be careful. Cars are driving quickly.

About the host

Hosted by Christen Wells

Host profile image
Hi, I am Jennifer, the owner (Christen is my awesome property manager!). I grew up in Ireland and have been living in Texas with my family for over 15 years. I absolutely love sharing the magic of our beautiful Hill Country property with guests coming from far and wide.

Why they chose this property

Canyon Lake is such an amazing place with so many wonderful things to do. We consider ourselves extremely lucky to live so close to the best swimming spot on the lake and also the spillway at the Canyon Lake Dam. Every night we walk from our home to the dam to watch the spectacular sunsets. The gorgeous and refreshing Guadalupe River is also just minutes from our home!

What makes this property unique

There is a healing energy on this land and almost every person who visits for a day or more comments on it. Even though we've built a small village of cute, creative, and elegant vacation homes (and private homes) on our land, we have managed to maintain the quiet, nurturing, and healing ambiance that touches so many people who stay here. We love this property and feel very lucky to share its magic with others.
