Accessibility and Availability

Neighborhood

Welcome to Driftwood, the "hidden gem" of the Texas Hill Country. Nestled on a quiet 12 acres, our home offers a true escape from the city hustle while keeping you in the center of the region’s premier culinary and wedding destinations. Driftwood is famous for its "Dark Sky" status, meaning you’ll enjoy some of the best stargazing in Texas right from our backyard. By day, you are surrounded by rolling hills and ancient oaks; by night, the neighborhood is a peaceful sanctuary where the only sounds are the local owls and the rustle of the wind. Local Culinary & Wine Icons: -Whiskey Ridge (A Must-Visit!): Just a few minutes away, this stunning spot features an incredible wrap-around porch and a massive collection of rare Texas bourbons. It's the perfect place for elevated comfort food (try the chicken-fried ribeye) and sunset cocktails with Hill Country views. -The Salt Lick BBQ: Just a 5-minute drive to the legendary open-pit BBQ mecca. -Duchman Family Winery: Stunning views and world-class Italian varieties, right around the corner. -Hays City Store: A local favorite for scratch-made Texas comfort food and live music. -Trattoria Lisina: Exceptional Italian fine dining located on the beautiful Mandola estate. -Vista Brewing: A 21-acre ranch-based brewery offering great food and plenty of space for families to roam. The Wedding Capital: We are perfectly positioned for guests attending weddings in the "Wedding Capital of Texas." We are within 10–15 minutes of major venues like Chapel Dulcinea, The Arlo, Canyonwood Ridge, and The Wildflower Barn. Outdoor Adventures: -Blue Hole Regional Park: A 15-minute drive to one of the most famous swimming holes in Texas. -Charro Ranch Park: Nearby hiking and birdwatching trails for a quiet morning in nature. Getting Around While we are a peaceful retreat, having a car is essential for exploring the Hill Country. -Dripping Springs: 8 minutes away for H-E-B grocery runs, boutique shopping, and Mercer Street nightlife. -Wimberley: 15 minutes away to the famous Wimberley Square and Jacob's Well. -Austin: Only 25–30 minutes to downtown Austin and the airport, making us a great "home base" for ACL or SXSW. Rideshares: Please note that Uber and Lyft are very limited in this rural area. We highly recommend pre-booking or designating a driver if you plan on visiting the local wineries and distilleries.

Guest Access

Guests will have full and private access to the entire 5-bedroom home, and all amenities including the pool, hot tub, game room, and fire pit. The only exceptions are a locked owner's storage unit and a cleaning closet, which are reserved for staff use. There are two other homes on the 12 acres, about 100-150 yards away from the home you are renting.
