About this property

Pool, Hot Tub, Large Fire Pit, Hill Country Views, 11 acres of Hiking Trails

Panoramic Hill Country views can be seen for miles from this well-cared-for 11+ acre eclectic getaway just north of Dripping Springs. Star-gaze from the cozy fire pit (or hilltop observatory with lounge chairs and a hammock) or relax in the four rocking chairs on the covered back deck. For those outdoor enthusiasts, get energized with a hike down meandering trails to the seasonal creek. If hot, take a dip in the pool. If cold, fire up the hot tub. If the weather is rough, play the Wii! There are many wineries, distilleries, and breweries close by.

The TV's are equipped with a Roku that provides Netflix, Disney Plus, YouTube, ESPN, and many other channels. The very large bounce house can be rented for $150 during your stay and I will help to set it up. I will not send a payment request until ~2 days before your arrival to ensure the weather is suitable.

The kitchen features custom cabinetry, stainless appliances, and plenty of room for the chef. It is fully stocked with pots and pans, a coffee maker, and an espresso machine with all the K-cups and creamer pods you will need, paper towels, dishes, glasses, etc. You just need to bring your food and drink and you are all set! We probably have it if you think you need it, so feel free to reach out and ask before you pack it or buy it.

There is a king-sized bed and a full-length couch on the first floor. There is a queen-sized bed in one room on the 3rd floor and a two-twin mattress trundle bed in another room. The main bedroom is on the 4th floor and has a king-sized bed.

There is a propane grill on the back deck that overlooks the pool and the vista. Please clean the grill tray after use to prevent flare-ups.

If you need to check in early or check out late let me know and I will check with the maids to see if that is possible. The charge to do so is $20 per hour.

Amazing house, location, and host

We rented Jim's house for a getaway with friends and family. He was incredibly responsive and helpful. The house is well equipped (kitchen, grill, linens). And it's in a gorgeous location. Close to Austin but nestled in the splendor and quiet of the Hill Country. An absolutely gorgeous place to relax. We will definitely be back!

Perfect getaway for our entire family (grown and grandkids)! Has all the extra creature comforts of being at home and everything you could think you may want/need- they've got it. Comfy beds, cooking supplies, children's toys/chairs/beds/cups/plates/games, water toys (kids and adults) and beautiful views that go on forever. I highly recommend this house as an escape from a the busy city life and will be looking forward to another visit very soon hopefully.

Really cool property with great views and a fun pool!

I stayed here with friends from out of town for a long weekend, we really enjoyed our stay. The house was clean, checkin was easy, this is a great property for a larger group. We really enjoyed hanging out in the pool! The only small negative is there wasn’t a lot of paper towels and trash bags, but it wasn’t a big deal.

Four of us went for R & R…. Wow did this place deliver. The house itself was the most well-stocked home I’ve ever rented. The grounds are beautiful as we walked the trail throughout. The pool and view are amazing. And it was serene and quiet. I highly recommend this home!

I’m going to try to leave as thorough a review as possible, but I’m sure I’ll forget some thing s. First of all, this was the best VRBO/vacation experience I’ve ever had. James is an incredible host and goes out of his way to be communicative and be responsive. I felt like I had a lot of questions/requests on the trip and James would return texts almost always immediately. So, starting with the host, the entire process was great. As far as the house goes, it was perfect. Location wise, it’s easy and convenient to get into Austin, but you could spend an entire week in the Dripping Springs area without even setting foot in Austin and have a fantastic time. Breweries, distilleries and wineries abound, and restaurants within 10 minutes of the house are great. It was my first time in Hill Country and I love everything about it. Feels like a slower pace of life, but still bougie-ish qualities with the restaurants and breweries and nice houses (reminded me just a bit of wine country). The house and property were perfect for our family of 5, with an additional family of 4 joining for a few days. The hot tub was used daily and the pool was enjoyed on the day the weather approached the 80s (otherwise might be a bit cold in winter months if it doesn’t get heated). The house was well kept and very clean. My family all agreed the best part of all was the property it is on. With all its land there’s so much to explore and the property really is beautiful. I was blown away!

Beautiful spacious getaway in hill country

We stayed for a week in this lovely home. It was two families, so four adults and two kids 7 and 8 years old. We had an amazing time, despite some unfortunately cold weather that was outside of anyone’s control (Feb is always a gamble). The kids loved the bouncy house, and we all appreciated the hot tub. At night the area is so quiet and dark which makes for perfect stargazing. The house feels like it’s in the middle of nowhere but you’re only a 30 min drive from Austin when traffic is good. James is a great host - very easy to communicate with and friendly and responsiveWe’d definitely stay again if we’re able. Don’t think, just book it :-)

This is an amazing property with gorgeous views. James was very prompt at responding when we had a question. Don't worry about forgetting anything--it is probably stocked in the house. So many amenities!! We went to Dripping Springs to view the Perseids meteor shower, Nothing like laying by the pool, watching the stars. :) We highly recommend this property.

Beautiful home in a beautiful area

We booked this house for a 5 day stay. We were 5 adults staying here to surprise my husband for his 50th birthday. There was plenty of room for all of us to sleep comfortably. This house has so many spaces to hang out, either with your group or alone if you need some space. I think my favorite spot (besides in the pool) was the lounge sectional on the back deck. This house is also stocked with things you might have forgotten to pack such as sunscreen, bar soap, or shampoo/conditioner. The homeowners are friendly and communicate well. Highly recommend this property!

Awesome vacation

The property was everything as advertised. The Host was excellent and had our stay ready for us. The amenities and things we didn't expect were accommodating for our stay. It was the hottest days of the year but it was never a problem. The deer weren't moving much because of the heat but we made friends with a fox and saw many beautiful birds. We had a wonderful time and would stay here, again. Thanks James.

The home is very spacious and clean. We all were comfortable and enjoyed our time there. We would recommend some type of marker at the end of the driveway by the street. The area is dark and we passed the driveway many times at night. The lights switches inside are somewhat confusing and difficult to find, perhaps a couple more lamps would make it a little easier. Overall the home is great and we would recommend a stay.
