Go West For Natural Beauty
Our 11-acre property in Driftwood is situated at the threshold of the Texas Hill Country, a geographic crossroads at and the border between the American Southeast and Southwest. You can experience a peaceful escape into your own private nature that’s perfect for relaxation, yet is still still within a few minutes drive of some of the best restaurants, breweries, and wineries that the region has to offer. The town of Dripping Springs, known as the “Gateway to the Hill Country” is only 5 miles north, and Austin is just over 20 minutes away if you’re looking for a night on the town.
The large, covered deck offers a peaceful sanctuary for birdwatching with a morning coffee in hand. Blooming perennial garden beds attract hummingbirds and butterflies, and the koi pond is a draw for wildlife. Walk the creekside nature trail to feel worlds away from the fast paced life. The wrap-around porch with sunset views expands down onto a larger deck and spacious prairie area that can accommodate larger gatherings.
