This unique dog-friendly Dripping Springs vacation rental has access to an outdoor entertainment area complete with a shared pool and two hot tubs, as well as an outdoor kitchen, creating a fun experience for a group of girlfriends, a small family, or a group of post-wedding guests. The cottage is a single-level home of quirky taste, with nice hardwood floors and a mix of fun antique furnishings. The living room is on the simple side, making it a wonderful space for guests to relax. Entertainment amenities include WiFi, a DVD player and movie selection to watch on the flatscreen TV (there is no cable), and several board games. Guests traveling with little ones have a Pack N' Play, baby gates, and a high chair to use. The kitchen is an immaculate space with white cabinetry, white appliances, and sand tone countertops (please note that there is no dishwasher). The pressed tin backsplash and cute trinkets add a bit of flair to the culinary experience.
Take the fun outside to the shared back patio, where you can cook a meal in the outdoor kitchen while other guests splash about in the shared pool - this area is shared between the three homes on the property. The sandstone kitchen is fully covered and well-lit, and includes a stainless steel gas grill, a mini-fridge, and a single gas burner. There's even a bar for observers to drink and chat with the grill master. The pool area is surrounded by lounge chairs and picnic tables for the ultimate outdoor party. No need to go back inside to freshen up - there's an outdoor locker area here, complete with a shower and toilet! Use the in-home washer/dryer to keep towels and bathing suits fresh.
This is a two-bedroom, one-bathroom home. Both of the bedrooms have queen beds, TVs, and are lovingly named after the vintage soda signs that hang above the beds. One of the sofas in the living room pulls out into a full-size sleeper. All in all, this home can sleep up to six guests. Well-behaved, friendly dogs are welcome to come too (please note that there is an additional nightly fee).
What's nearby:
It'll be hard to want to do anything else but explore this property, which itself includes hiking trails and plenty of outdoor spaces to nap or read in the shade under a tree or by the pool.

Summary: The property was secluded and quiet despite being directly off of a busy road. There was a colony of deer that lived nearby that were nearly always present. The porch and pool area were perfect for relaxing. The 2 gas grills on the property were easy to use and the hot tub was very nice. We loved the rustic charm that all of the structures had. There were no other guests using the outdoor facilities while we were there, but the area was more than big enough and I can't imagine we would have had any issues sharing the outdoor amenities.

Summary: It’s a great little property not too far from Austin or the greater hill country. Bathtub needed a bit of draino and a new shower curtain, but otherwise it was tidy, cozy, and quaint.

Summary: Our stay was over Christmas during the cold snap. The Cottage was warm, welcoming and the location was great for us. A pipe burst on the pool filtration system and management was quick to respond. I’m sure summer would be great relaxing by the pool or on the front porch!

Summary: This place met our needs for a quiet and rustic non-urban hang-out in between Austin and nearby outings. The road / property is very dark, which was a great respite from the city at night, but also made it difficult to find the house # at check-in. The front porch was great for sunny morning coffee with friends and watching + listening to the birds. It wasn’t clear until we received check-in instructions that the pool isn’t heated (nor does it stay clean due to all the leaves), but the hot tub was great once it warmed up and we cleared the leaves. There wasn’t a great selection of bedding/blankets for the pull-out couch, but the rooms were clean and comfortable. It would be challenging to depend on this kitchen for any real meal prep, but it worked for us this trip. There’s no coffee grinder, so bring already-ground coffee. I put 3* for communication - we couldn’t find check-out instructions except for generic “pack your belongings,” “load the dishwasher” (there isn’t a dishwasher) and “turn off the lights.” We left it very tidy.

Summary: We really enjoyed our stay at the house. We loved the decor and the location is peaceful and quiet but also convenient to town. There’s a super cool vintage radio. Everything was clean and tidy, and check in was simple. Just what we needed!

Summary: Check in and out is later and earlier than any other place. Check in at 4pm and out by 10am. For the cost, it’s ridiculous. Internet was in and out. Only 1 tv worked and that was antenna, no streaming Otherwise location was great. My kids loves the deer in the morning. Nice pool area.

Summary: We stayed for 17 day's and really enjoyed the location. It was a cute little cabin and for the most part was great! We did have an issue getting someone to fix the internet and it took almost a week to get that fixed but they were very polite about it. The TV in one of the bedrooms didn't work. The trash was all the way out by the road in front of the main house and was quite a walk to take it out and my parents are older. Glad I was able to be there to take it out for them. There were a few roaches, the small ones that we did see in the kitchen. The driveway into the cottage was so bad we had a hard time pulling into it. But other than that we enjoyed our stay and the view is great! We saw lots of deer! The owners are very nice and helped me with booking and even let us look around before booking. The patio area is very nice. We were able to use the grill one night when the other guest weren't using it and set outside and had dinner. We would probably stay here again if we happen to be in the area.
