Great for a short remote getaway. Cozy comfortable cabin with full shaded porch, grills and firepit, fun local fauna (goats and horses), very responsive and accommodating host, and your own pool a short hike away.

This is my second stay at this cabin. If you want a remote place surrounded by nature, this is it. The small goats grazing nearby add to the serenity of the experience. There is a very unique swimming pool for those that come during warmer weather as well. I highly recommend staying here.

It was an incredible stay in a peaceful, beautiful part of Texas. The hiking offered around the property was gorgeous with views of the surrounding terrain. We were warm after our hike so we swam in the pool, it was very clean and perfect temperature to help cool us down. The free roaming animals were sweet and beautiful, they greeted us shortly after arrival! The back porch was lovely for breakfast or coffee in the mornings. We mainly cooked outside on the grill and enjoyed a fire one night. It stormed while we were there but the cabin was spacious and the sound of the rain on the roof was like a soundscape. We would love to stay here again for longer.

Private Cabin

We loved our stay! The cabin was so private in the middle of a beautiful pasture with goats and horses! It was convenient to Colorado Bend State Park where we spent the day hiking! A beautiful back porch to sit and watch the wildlife!

Little Getaway

My husband found this cabin on VRBO. It looked perfect for us. We have a 10 lb. papallion and he travels with us everywhere. He was welcome. The property was beautiful and had 2 beautiful horses and lots of pretty goats. Was so nice sitting on the back porch reading and watching the animals. Would definitely stay here again!!

About the host

Hosted by Beth Griess

Host profile image
My great-grandfather purchased the ranch. My husband and I are the stewards and invite you to enjoy the serenity and peace that the quiet hill country has to offer.

Why they chose this property

Located one hour forty minutes from Austin or 11 miles from San Saba,Tx. We are also 20 minutes from the Colorado State Park in Bend, Tx. We don’t offer linens as this property is unique. A small inconvenience compared to a private nature preserve.

What makes this property unique

For those that like to cross country bike in the Texas Hill Country, this is a wonderful stop over.

It's 40 minutes from Gorman Falls, an unrealized gem in the Texas Parks.
