About this property

Gorgeous Hill Country Cottage minutes from wineries and more!

Immerse yourself in the natural beauty of summertime in the Hill Country when you stay now at Saint Germain’s Cottage! This newly built 1br/1ba private home offers fantastic views from an expansive deck, under a canopy of Live Oaks. This amazing property is perfect for a romantic getaway or for those who are looking to work from home.

Enjoy a spacious full kitchen complete with a large island, great for cocktail making, card playing, or dinner just for two. Feel free to curl up on the couch in the living room while reading a good book or take a break and watch a movie on the 42-inch flat screen TV. If you are looking to catch up on some sleep, escape to the quiet bedroom complete with blackout curtains and an exceptionally comfortable queen-size bed, perfect for your lounging pleasure.

Relax and recharge as you watch wildlife or go for a dip in a gorgeous collapsed grotto; Hamilton Pool Preserve is just 7 miles away and features a 50-foot waterfall that cascades into a beautiful natural pool. If you are looking for a beach or if hiking and rock climbing are more your style, Milton Reimer’s Ranch is just down the road. This cottage is central to wineries, breweries, and distilleries, all of which are sure to offer a good time to all. And for those interested in shopping, the Galleria in Bee Cave or Mercer Street in Dripping Springs are both just a short drive away.

Located just 25 miles west of Austin, 22 miles north of Wimberley, and a short one-hour drive west of Fredericksburg, Saint Germain’s Cottage is tucked into the center of the Hill Country, ready for you to explore and enjoy.

Beautiful cottage in a great Hill Country location

We enjoyed our stay at St Germaine cottage. Our hosts were wonderful and very responsive. The cottage is well equipped and nicely appointed. Everything is new, pristine and so comfortable. We appreciated the extra touches like shampoo, etc. and snacks, water and coffee. The deck is lovely overlooking the private backyard. The location is in a quiet neighborhood, very safe but in proximity to restaurants, shopping and parks. We would stay here again.

Wonderful cottage, great location

We used this cottage as a home base for a week of visiting family in the area. Everything about the cottage was perfect. It is new and clean and very spacious for a couple. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you would need for meals. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was fully stocked with soap and shampoo. We also used the washer and dryer several times. The upscale neighborhood was quiet and safe. We enjoyed frequent walks around West Cave Loop – two miles door to door. The variety of songbirds was impressive and we also saw a few deer along the way.

Wonderful little cottage

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay at this cottage. The property is in a great location, close to lots of outdoor activities, breweries, and wineries. Easy check in and out procedures, and the decor was modern and comfortable. Cute little deck area where we got to see a fox. There was a brief power outage due to a transformer issue, but the owners contacted us to make sure we were ok and kept us informed of the anticipated restore time. They even offered for us to use their personal amenities. Very sweet and responsive! We will stay when we are in the area again.

Beautiful cottage

A clean, quaint, and perfect vacation home for a couple wanting to see the hill country. St. Germaine’s provided my husband and I a place to relax and then venture out to visit wineries, Dripping Springs, restaurants, and the beautiful Texas Hill Country. Our hosts were the best at knowing how to make us feel comfortable by providing a binder with lots of local recommendations. We enjoyed our evenings on the deck watching the wildlife and our mornings listening to all the different bird species. We can’t say enough good things about our stay at this beautiful cottage! You need to book it before someone else does. We are sure you won’t be disappointed☺️ Teresa & Greg
