About this property

Hill Country Haven – Clean & Cozy 2BR Retreat- Newly Reopened!

A peaceful Hill Country retreat just minutes from downtown Austin and Dripping Springs is back on the market! This clean and comfortable first-floor apartment features two bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen with a coffee maker, and all the essentials for a relaxing stay. The main bedroom has a queen-size bed, while the second bedroom offers a cozy twin bed—perfect for a friend, coworker, or child. Enjoy your favorite shows on the large-screen TV and stay connected with free Wi-Fi throughout the apartment.

We share the property with our friendly dogs (kept safely behind an invisible fence)—you’re welcome to say hello, but they won’t be near the apartment.

This space is ideal for a quick overnight stop, a weekend getaway for local Hill Country events, or a comfortable extended stay for work. It’s the perfect distance from Austin to enjoy both the city life and the quiet country charm. You’ll be just five minutes from grocery stores, coffee shop, and a variety of restaurants.

Our main house is nearby, so if you need anything, we’re happy to help. We look forward to welcoming you soon!

The host was wonderful. We loved having their dogs around and they weren't bothersome at all. It had all the basics we could need. We're just older and the couch and the bed weren't great but doable for one night. The decorating was really nice.

Hi Tamara. Yes, like I informed you before your arrival, we were in the final stages of rebuilding a workshop that was destroyed by a fire in December. The apartment was not effected by the fire. I hope you are able to return to see it all completed and back to normal. :)

The condo was impeccably clean and well-maintained.Hubby and Grandson appreciated the quiet and homey atmosphere. The beds were extremely comfortable. There was everything you needed to make a weekend visit to the races at the Circuit of the Americas track. Shower was wonderful and accomidating to the over 6’ Water pressure was great. Communication with Holly, the host, was amazing and very friendly. She made sure the men had everything they needed. Easy to get to on the south side of Austin which was what we were looking for. Perfect in every way. Thanks for hosting Norm and Nick. Will come back anytime. See you next year.

Adorable little Casita!

Wow! This place was absolutely perfect for a quick stay (would've been just as great for a longer stay!). The Casita was adorable and the place was easy to find. Despite only being there for one night, the host was phenomenal with communication and was so friendly. We were very familiar with the area (planning to move to the area in the next few months) so finding the place and getting around was super easy. Overall, a great place!

Relaxing Getaway

I booked this property last minute for a quick weekend getaway. The owner had the property ready in two hours, supplied with snacks and plenty coffee. The location was great, close enough to town, but still away from all the busyness. The owner was prompt in responding to any thing I needed. I would definitely stay at this property again.

La Casita

We loved our stay. The casita very clean and cozy as others have said and Holly was a great host. She was helpful and answered all of our questions both in person and when we were away through the app. We came in for a concert and found that we were just down the street from the venue so it made for the perfect place to stay the night and see the area. Will definitely be back!

La Casita

We had originally rented a home in Austin to be near family and friends. But when we received the message on the day of our arrival that the renovations would not be completed in time, we were left scrambling for a place to stay. We had looked at La Casita beforehand as an option but dismissed it due to having to travel through the city of Austin during rush hour to make it in time for dinner plans. When we checked to see if this cottage was still available, we contacted the owner right away. Holly was extremely accommodating, even leaving work early to make sure everything was in place for our arrival. She was very flexible and sympathetic to our situation. The location is just outside of the big city, somewhat secluded, and very quiet. It turned out to be just what I needed after traveling from Wisconsin. The trees, atmosphere, seclusion, and the quaint cottage all reminded me of home and felt very relaxed during my stay. I would highly recommend the peaceful setting, the warm friendly feel of the one room cottage, and the great hospitality of the owners. Five stars from me and I will be booking again on a return to beautiful Austin.

Great intro to Austin area

We made an exploratory trip to the Austin area with the intention of determining if it would be the place to settle down for the next chapter of our lives. Holly and Juan were both very friendly, communicative, and helpful. The location was extremely private and well located for our expedition which included a trip all around the Austin area totaling 500+ miles within 2 days! Will most likely stay again in the near future.

The goodie basket and eggs in the fridge were so sweet and greatly appreciated. And the pups close by were the best bonus! Will definitely come back for our next Austin weekend getaway!

Awesome property! We LOVED this charming cabin in the woods with all the comforts of home! Holly, the owner was GREAT to work with and was very responsive. Furnishings and decor were lovely. The color scheme was warm and welcoming. The extra amenities were very much appreciated and the property was clean and as represented in the ad and photos. The bed was super comfortable.

Hidden Gem

This beautiful property is conveniently located right off the main road but because of all the lush trees, it feels as though you're miles and miles away at a secluded cabin. Holly was super nice and welcoming. The welcome gift basket filled with awesome snacks was a small gesture that made a huge impression. To take it one step further, there was a binder filled with useful information about the area and even included brochures of museums and other fun things to do. I will happily recommend this casita to anyone looking for a place to stay in Austin.

What makes this property unique

Our property offers the best of both worlds — a peaceful Hill Country setting on three partially wooded acres with local wildlife, chickens, and goats (kept away from the apartment), yet it’s just minutes from Austin and Dripping Springs. Guests love the quiet mornings, open skies, and the natural charm of the Hill Country, while still being close to restaurants and local attractions. We live nearby on the property, so we’re happy to offer local tips or assistance during your stay if you need anything.
