Charming Artistic Casita in rolling Texas Hill Country

Entering the garden gate, you'll walk under an arbor and pass the chicken coop, the organic garden and enter your own private retreat. We have made every effort to make this retreat as green as possible. Just inside the gate you have a lovely patio shaded by native Live Oaks, another garden area planted with Texas Natives, and a large covered porch with an outdoor dining spot, and a wide bench with cushions. Inside the Casita, which is small and efficient, you have a queen sized bed, a love seat, a kitchen with granite counter tops and equipped with all the basics, an expandable dining table, a closet and a bath with walk in shower. There are handmade tiles installed in the kitchen and the bath. The dinnerware colorful Fiesta ware. We harvest rainwater and use it on the vegetable gardens, and use some for the landscaping. When available, we can supply you with some fresh eggs from the chickens ! We also stock the fridge with organic free trade Coffee and Half & Half to get you started on your day. The hot water heater is tankless on demand, the AC/heater is an energy efficient 18 Seer Mini-Split, and there is a ceiling fan to reduce the need for AC. The floors are hardwood and tile with an area rug in the living area. We use sustainable paper products, bath products and soaps. The furniture and cabinetry was locally sourced and/or reclaimed.
We have 2 fish ponds with Koi and goldfish for you to enjoy.
There is a lap pool on the property, just behind the main house filled with rainwater. You are welcome to use the pool while enjoying the cool water, the flowers and watching the wind generators spin. This is a very relaxing place.
Small dogs under 30 pounds are allowed. 2 dogs max. There is a pet fee of $15. per day per dog. (Pets are not allowed in the pool)

Great host beautiful space
The little cabin was quaint and perfectly equipped for one to two people to stay comfortably. The host was very kind and showed us around her property filled with her stunning artwork, sculpture and tile work. The pool was amazing. I would definitely recommend this as a nice place to stay. Close to town too!

The Casita is a special place. From the drive up to the artist inspired surroundings it could not be more idyllic or romantic. The owner lives on site but could not be more accommodating. Her incredible works of art can be seen throughout the property The pool s beautiful and inspiring Great location with great dining option nearby. It was the perfect getaway and we hated to leave

Delightful get-away!
We stayed here to celebrate our 25th anniversary and we could not have asked for a nicer experience. The neighborhood feels like it's out in the middle of the country. So quiet and surrounded by trees. The Casita is cozy and has a lovely porch to enjoy the outdoors and watch the birds. We also spent the mornings and evenings swimming in the pool. We are already looking forward to staying at the Casita again! Thank you,Claudia, for making our anniversary so special!

Eclectic and unique little hideaway in great location
We enjoyed our 2 night stay with our two pups for my husband’s birthday over July 4th. The location is perfect, the casita is cozy and comfortable and the pool was just what we needed to help cool off from the Texas heat. We will definitely consider staying in Claudia’s casita again when we visit Austin again. Just a note for those traveling with pups, make sure to bring a brush during the summer months as cockleburs are prevalent. I should have been more prepared, so that was my fault.

A little piece of art & serenity
We stayed at the Casita and it was exactly what we needed. The surrounding area was peaceful and the sounds at night and morning a delight. Claudia was an amazing host. We even enjoyed her eggs and coffee she provided. The property was clean and stocked with natural products. There is a pool as well and it was relaxing and clean. This location was close to all our destinations we were headed. We cannot wait to come back and return to the Casita.

A Great Stay away from home
The host Claudia is a wonderful host. The casita was clean, comfortable & cozy. We enjoyed visiting Claudia’s studio. Her work is amazing. Claudia made us feel so welcome when we arrived. You could not meet a nicer person. We plan to use the casita wherever we visit our family in Austin. Sincerely Tom & Francine Burke

Relaxing little getaway
We had a lovely time at this cute little cottage. The patio was our favorite place to relax and it was perfect for our dog since it was fenced in. We only left once to eat at a super good restaurant recommended by our hostess who came to meet us with her adorable pup. This is a great place to get away from the city and chill!

Such a charming cozy casita to tuck into at night and to linger in over coffee in the morning! We attended young grandchildren’s activities and other busy family gatherings in Austin (away from the casita) during the days of our 4-night stay at the casita and looked forward each evening to returning to the quiet that awaited us there! Highly recommend!
