Kyle House | Expansive Resort-like Ranch Compound on 16 Acres with Pool, Spa & Starlink!

7 Bedroom House in Kyle

Driftwood Retreat and Ranch is a unique rustic 16 acre ranch with three separate houses, The Main Ranch "Big House", Rock House, Log Cabin, a Game Room/Bunk house, a swimming pool and hot tub, enormous fire pit, and covered BBQ Pavilion. The houses and pool are nestled within 25 yards of each other and are located within the 4 acre landscaped compound. The rest of the ranch is undeveloped Hill Country heaven filled with native species of plants and animals such as Live Oak, fox, deer and armadillos.
The largest home being the 2,500 square foot "Big House", is a traditional two story home with a huge covered back deck with ample shade and a propane grill (propane provided). Inside the home is a spacious living area with wood burning fireplace, large sectional sofa, and flat screen TV. Off the living area is a fully equipped kitchen with a large island and a dining area with seating for six. There is also four barstools around the island and a breakfast table that seats six. Also downstairs is the primary bedroom with a king size bed, a bonus room with a day bed plus ensuite bathroom with a soaking tub and walk-in shower. If any of your guests have mobility issues, this primary bedroom w ensuite bath would be best for them. Upstairs is a sleeping loft with two twin beds which can be connected to create a king and a second bedroom with a queen size bed. There's a full bathroom upstairs between the loft and the bedroom. Just steps away from the Big House is a Game Room with a set of bunk beds as well as a queen bed, a pool table which converts into ping pong and various board games. There is *Starlink* satellite wifi!
"The Rock House" is an adorable 800 square foot two bedroom, one bath, full kitchen, cottage. It has true country charm. There is a big open room that includes the living area with adorable pot-belly stove for keeping warm, dining area next to the full kitchen. The primary bedroom has a queen size bed while the second bedroom has two sets of twin beds. Just down the hall is a full bathroom. The shaded front porch is a perfect spot to sip your morning coffee before getting the day started.
Just across the gated swimming pool and covered BBQ pavilion lies "The Log Cabin". This precious 450 square foot rustic cabin is every one's favorite. The cabin has a queen size bed, a fireplace, full bathroom with claw foot tub and walk in shower.
"Pool, BBQ Pavilion, Firepit" Nestled in the center of the three houses is the heart and soul of the ranch. The custom pool with limestone rockwork and waterfall is a perfect compliment to the hillcountry landscape and the 200 year old Live Oak which serves as its backdrop. A truly unique gem and perfect gathering place for multi-generational families to enjoy the adjacent covered BBQ Pavilion with a HUGE double-sided smoker pit plus a gas grill (propane included). There is an electric hot tub for your enjoyment tucked away under the enormous Live Oak right next to the pool.

Summary: The property was beautiful, and we made wonderful memories during our stay! The house was well stocked, and we had everything we could have ever needed while we were there.

Summary: This property was an absolute gem—beautifully maintained and thoughtfully stocked with everything imaginable to make our stay effortless and enjoyable. From a fully equipped kitchen with every appliance and gadget you could ask for, to plush towels, cozy bedding, and entertainment options for all ages, no detail was overlooked.The highlight for many of us was the stunning outdoor space. We spent hours soaking in the sparkling pool, relaxing in the spa, and unwinding in the hot tub under the stars. Evenings around the fire pit were a hit with the kids, especially when it came time to roast marshmallows and share stories. They enjoyed the scavenger hunt the most!Tucked away in the peaceful countryside, the property offered a true escape from the hustle and bustle. And while being surrounded by nature does bring the occasional countryside crawler, it’s all part of the charm of an authentic country getaway.Truly, it felt like a home away from home—only better. We can't wait to come back!

Summary: This property is awesome and huge.We filled, every bed with a family member and never felt crowded. The host worked with us to check in early and check out late, very generous. I only regret as we couldn’t stay longer and enjoy the property more.

Summary: Driftwood Retreat and Ranch was exactly as advertised and our big family very much enjoyed our stay over Thanksgiving. The property has an "out in the country" feel even though it is only a half-hour or so outside of Austin. The separate buildings offered privacy for family units of varying sizes. The owner (Kristin) lives a short distance away in Austin and is readily accessible via text or email. She was one of the most responsive hosts we have ever experienced. The weather was cold so we didn't use the pool or spa, but they look wonderful and we are tempted to come back sometime when it is warmer. We did make good use of the outdoor firepit where our grandkids loved roasting marshmallows for s'mores. One surprise was the town of Kyle itself. Downtown area is a short drive from the ranch and is quaint and beautiful, very walkable, with a park and playground for kids and several brewpubs and other amenities for adults. Kyle is a rapidly growing bedroom community for Austin so every food and beverage amenity you could possibly want is only a short drive from the ranch. All in all, we had a wonderful stay.

Kristin loves this property and it shows in the details that she puts into it to ensure that it is ready for guests. Her thoughtfulness in upgrading and maintaining the property makes for a pleasant and worry free stay. Thanks again Kristin!

Summary: It was way too short! This is an awesome place to reconnect with family and just kinda kickback. We all had our own space yet we were always together. Kristen is an excellent hostess. If you are a person that cooks she has anything and everything you could want. The space was gorgeous and well kept. If I ever need to be back in Texas I will definitely stay here.

Summary: This retreat is beautiful. Spread across 16 acres, it offers so much privacy. It’s nice that it has 3 separate houses. The log cabin is just darling. The pool was great and plenty of space to spread out. The big house has a huge kitchen with just about every cooking utensil you need. We really enjoyed our stay and plan to return next year.

Summary: Our stay at Driftwood Ranch exceeded our expectations and was a wonderful time for our group of 18 (13 adults and 5 children 4 and under). The photos do not do this property justice. The setting is a gorgeous and peaceful Hill Country back drop where you and your group will be in a fully private setting to relax and spend time with loved ones. The main house had one of the best appointed kitchens we’ve stayed in to date, with double ovens, two fridges and everything you need to cook for a large group. We had plenty of bathrooms and beds for everyone in our group to have their own space. Kristin was incredibly communicative and graciously provided an area guide and also enough mattresses/cots for our children to sleep comfortably in addition to adults. All of the houses stayed cool and comfortable in the August Texas heat. The pool was fully fenced in, a great comfort to parents of young kids! We all had lots of fun at the pool and adjacent pavilion, and loved sitting in the chairs around the fire pit in the evenings. We cooked on both (yes, two!) grills and both were clean and worked well, and we had all the gear needed at the house to use them! The kids loved exploring the beautiful natural setting and were running around exploring flowers and rocks together all weekend. We would absolutely stay at this property again. Thank you Kristin for a wonderful weekend full of special memories!

Summary: We had a dream of a weekend w friends. It’s like having your own resort. Everything was perfect; the individual fully stocked houses, sparkling pool, bbq pavilion. So much space for the kids to play and roam. Icing on the cake, my kids woke up to horses in the backyard. Truly magical. Hope to come back every year.
