This was a beautiful place. The hosts were such lovely people. Couldn’t ask for better hosts. Cabin was very well kept and clean. The highlight for the two of us was the stairs down to the creek. We were lucky to be there after a good rain and it was flowing so nicely. Absolutely beautiful!! We will be back for sure

We spent a long weekend at this property and it was hands down the quietest place with the most stunning views of the Hill Country. The cabin had everything we needed and had good wifi and Tv when were at the property. It was a perfect place to rest and restore after busy days hiking and shopping in this part of Texas. Highly recommend if you want to spend quality time surrounded by only the sounds of humming birds and the rustling of the leaves.

Patti and David were very welcoming and attentive throughout our stay. They kept the humming bird feeders stocked, so there were endless amount of birds flying in and out. The cliff view from the porch and the living room area are impeccable. One of the most unique places we've stayed in the hill country. A lot of nature and outdoor stuff within an hours drive. Would definitely recommend.

About the host

Hosted by Patti Boyd

Host profile image

David Boyd, retired from UT Austin. Patti Boyd, semi-retired from self-employment. We both have lived in Austin area for about 50 years, and have lived at this property since 1995.

Why they chose this property

It is incredibly beautiful, truly, and a very natural area. Austin seems to grow daily, but our place here, only 30 miles from downtown, feels a world away. It is very a peaceful, relaxing place to be, a real getaway from the hustle and bustle.

What makes this property unique

The view from the cabin is phenomenal. Sitting on the porch and relaxing in the swing or glider and enjoying the view of Cypress Creek canyon 120 feet below is a mind-altering experience. It really takes you out of yourself for a bit. If you're a bit adventurous, you can climb down the custom-built iron staircase and trail to an incredibly beautiful deck built on a boulder overlooking Cypress Creek. It feels very much like a giant treehouse, with the sound of the falling water running down below.
