The Cross Patio Retreat - Designer Hill Country Studio with Scenic Views
Escape to the Cross Patio Retreat, a one-of-a-kind studio-style between Driftwood and Buda, Texas that blends Hill Country charm with modern comfort just 30 minutes from downtown Austin. This bright, open-concept space is surrounded by expansive glass walls that bring in natural light and peaceful views, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor feel you won’t find in a typical rental. Inside, you’ll find a cozy queen bed with soft linens, a fully equipped kitchenette with everything you need for simple meals, a dining area perfect for coffee or game nights, and a comfortable lounge space to relax and unwind. The warm wood ceilings and stone walls give the space an elevated yet inviting atmosphere, making it ideal for couples, weekend getaways, or small family stays. Start your mornings with coffee on the patio, spend your days exploring nearby wineries, parks, and local dining, and end your evenings soaking in the quiet, scenic surroundings beside the fire pit. Whether you’re visiting Austin or looking for a peaceful escape, this unique retreat offers the perfect balance of privacy, comfort, and unforgettable character. For guests traveling with additional friends or family, we offer a second private retreat just across the road. The Upper Room can be booked alongside The Cross Patio Retreat, giving your group the perfect balance of proximity and privacy. View the The Upper Room for additional information.
