About this property

Panoramic Country Views ~ Wildlife ~ Butterflies & Birds ~ Star-gazing ~ Hiking

Panoramic views surround Ash Creek Hideaway, this perfect escape. Relax in the peaceful Hill Country at our three-bedroom, two-bath home just a couple miles north of Leakey. Enjoy sitting and visiting on the front porch lined in many comfortable chairs and rockers watching the birds, in the back yard watching the wildlife, or after dark stargazing.

Experience country family living on three acres covered with large shade trees that create a pleasant area for outdoor picnics, barbecues, and entertainment. A seasonal creek and springs are inviting to the wildlife. The whitetail deer, and an occasional axis, feed daily. Birds, jack rabbits, and squirrels frequent the feeders and provide hours of enjoyment and relaxation. Seasonal Hummingbirds, Purple Martins, and butterflies passing through can create hours of watching and entertainment. It’s not unusual for the raccoons and armadillos to be seen.

The house has sleeping accommodations for 12 people and linens are provided for the main beds. Enjoy the fresh air blowing through the open windows in the spring or the fireplace on a cool winter night. Central heat and air-conditioning, a fully equipped, newly remodeled kitchen, includes dishes, a dishwasher, and washer and dryer are a few of the amenities. Satellite television on the large Smart TV is included along with internet and a landline telephone.

The large, fenced yard is a nice place for your kids and outdoor pets to enjoy your travels too.

Access to the Frio River is available at river crossings in town, on the Rio Frio Road, Utopia Road, and the road to Vanderpool, several pay locations, and at Garner State Park. Whether a trip to the Frio River, hiking at Lost Maples State Park, a weekend get-away to the country, a week of bird watching, or a quiet romantic time is what you are looking for, we hope you and your family enjoy your stay at Ash Creek Hideaway!

Thank you for staying at Ash Creek Hideaway, and we’re glad to hear you’d be willing to come back! I’m sorry we didn’t exceed your expectations. The flood a couple of weeks ago left our little county road in pretty rough shape. We received 20–25 inches of rain in Ash Creek Canyon, and, for the first time since we built our home here in 1981, the road sustained some significant damage. We’re on the county’s list for improved road repairs, and we’re very appreciative that our neighbor and guests are now able to access their homes. Regarding the price, we feel our nightly rate is quite reasonable for a three-bedroom, two-bath home with all of the amenities we provide, especially given our beautiful country location. When hotel taxes, the VRBO service fee, and cleaning fee are added—particularly for a two-night stay—the total can be more than we would prefer as well. Unfortunately, we don’t have control over much of those additional fees. I’m also sorry you missed the information we provide about what is included and what guests may want to bring during their stay. We’ll take another look at how we can make that information easier to find. Thank you for taking such good care of our vacation rental. We truly appreciate it and hope to have you back at Ash Creek Hideaway soon! Wendy Smith

The property was a perfect peaceful getaway for my husband, sister, brother-in-law and me as well as my sister's dog. We greatly enjoyed the hummingbirds on the many feeders on the porch. The dog loved running around the fenced in yard. It was quiet, a perfect place to hang out and talk and play games. I was initially nervous about finding it when i learned cell service is spotty out there, but the owners written directions were accurate and easy to follow. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils, dishes, pots and pans and serving bowls as well as appliances that were in great shape. A very enjoyable time!

This was our second time staying at Ash Creek. Such a beautiful and peaceful getaway from the city. We love the large porch for relaxing and birdwatching. The fully fenced yard is a huge plus for our dog. The house itself is comfortable, clean and well maintained. There are lovely new showers installed since our last visit.

About the host

Hosted by Wendy Smith

Host profile image
Living on our family property in Blanco, just west of here, we truly enjoy making the drive over to ensure our little piece of heaven on earth is ready for your stay. We’ve always called the Texas Hill Country home, where wide-open spaces, abundant wildlife, and small-town charm make life special—much like Leakey. We love spending time outdoors, watching the deer, hummingbirds, and purple martins, gathering with family and friends, and appreciating the simple joys of country life. Hosting gives us the opportunity to share a little of this peaceful lifestyle with others. There’s nothing more rewarding than creating a warm, comfortable place where guests can relax, make lasting memories, and experience the natural beauty and genuine hospitality of our area.

Why they chose this property

As a newlywed couple looking to grow in the coaching profession, my husband accepted a position with Leakey Independent School District as head basketball coach and science teacher. The small Class A school immediately felt like home, and the community warmly welcomed the new teacher and coach in town. Housing was limited at the time, but through a wonderful connection with a sweet, retired teacher who owned this beautiful ranch just a few miles outside of Leakey, we were able to purchase three acres of this gorgeous, secluded property. It was there that we built what is now Ash Creek Hideaway. For several years, we were the only full-time residents along this four-mile country road and loved caring for and watching over the surrounding properties. Although life eventually led us closer to our aging families, Ash Creek Canyon has always held a special place in our hearts, and we continue to treasure the peace and beauty found here.

What makes this property unique

What makes our property truly special is the peaceful beauty that surrounds you in every direction. From every window and across all three acres, you’ll enjoy relaxing country views and the quiet charm of the Texas Hill Country. The front porch is lined with comfortable chairs and rocking chairs—the perfect place to sip your morning coffee, unwind in the evening, or simply take in the scenery. A fenced yard provides a safe space for children and outdoor pets to play while you relax.

Inside, the cozy fireplace creates the perfect atmosphere for quiet evenings, while outside, the fire pit offers a wonderful place to gather under the stars. If you enjoy cooking outdoors, you’ll find a barrel BBQ pit, an additional grill, and three picnic tables ready for family meals and gatherings. For a little fun, guests can enjoy ping-pong, cornhole, horseshoes, and washer pitching.

Nature lovers especially appreciate the wildlife that often visits the property—deer, squirrels, armadillos, bluebirds, butterflies, and depending on the season, purple martins and hummingbirds. It’s the perfect blend of comfort, outdoor fun, and the natural beauty that makes this little getaway so memorable.
