Tawnya’s Secret Hideaway | 20-Mile Views • Firepit

Wake up to sweeping 20-mile Hill Country views at this spacious three-bedroom, two-bath retreat located just outside Dripping Springs — the gateway to the Hill Country and the Wedding Capital of Texas. Perfectly positioned near local wineries, breweries, distilleries, and wedding venues, this peaceful getaway offers the ideal balance of privacy, comfort, and convenience.

Spanning nearly 2,900 square feet on two acres, the home blends Hill Country charm with modern comfort. The open living area features wood-beamed ceilings, abundant natural light, and comfortable seating perfect for gathering and relaxation. The adjoining dining area seats six with a breakfast bar for three, while the fully equipped kitchen has both drip and Keurig coffee makers and stainless steel appliances including a double oven — ideal for laid-back mornings or evenings cooking with a glass of local wine.

The home comfortably sleeps up to eight guests. The primary suite upstairs includes a king bed, ensuite full bathroom, and panoramic Hill Country views, now enhanced with soundproof window inserts for quiet rest. Two additional bedrooms each feature a queen bed, and the living room offers a full-size sofa bed for extra guests.

Step outside to enjoy Hill Country views from the private patio, complete with a swing, shaded pavilion, and ample seating — including Adirondack chairs, loungers, and a picnic table. The fully fenced backyard offers something for everyone: a wood-burning fire pit, sandbox, swingset with slide, and a tire swing under the oaks.

For outdoor cooking, you’ll find a gas grill out back and a charcoal grill in front, plus a basketball hoop and ball in the driveway for extra fun. Whether you’re sipping morning coffee at sunrise or relaxing by the fire pit under the stars, Tawnya’s Secret Hideaway is designed for family connection and outdoor living.

Inside, guests will enjoy high-speed Wi-Fi, smart-lock entry, and thoughtful touches throughout. The home includes board and card games, a laundry room, and all essential safety features such as smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, a first aid kit, and a fire extinguisher. (Please note: the indoor fireplace is decorative only.)

Located just minutes from Hamilton Pool Preserve, Pedernales Falls State Park, and many of the Hill Country’s top wineries, breweries, and wedding venues including Canyonwood Ridge which is only  1.1m away, this home also offers easy access to Wimberley, Fredericksburg, Blanco, New Braunfels, and Downtown Austin.

Perfect for families, couples, and small groups, guests love starting the day with coffee on the deck, exploring local wineries, and ending the night beneath the Texas stars.

Peaceful place a short drivw from Austin

We stayed here when in town for a wedding. What a peaceful place this was. We watched deer, coyotes and roadrunners wander just on the other side of the fence. The deck was amazing. Property was well maintained and equipped with everything we needed. Stires were nearby and plenty of places to explore. I would absolutely stay here again if travels take me back to this area.

Dripping Springs Hideaway on a Hill

We loved everything from start to finish! Upon arriving we immediately noticed how clean the property was and how perfectly setup and arranged the rooms and layout were. The views off the back patio are simply stunning! The deer were another highlight, delighting these city folk every morning and evening. Absolutely the spring break we needed. Thank you, Chris, for your hospitality and kindness! You’ve got a gem! Blessings to you.

Amazing place

This place is so comfortable and a great location. HEB is right down the road and easy access to 290 .. We stayed here before my daughters wedding that was in Austin so getting to Austin very easy and after a long day of events it was wonderful to come back to house and watch deer and relax on back deck.

Perfect Stay

We had a lovely stay at Tawnya's Hideaway. It was exactly as described and was the perfect Dripping Springs location. We were in town to attend a graduation and had 4 adults stay with plenty of room. The swing in the back yard overlooking Texas Hill country was the perfect spot for morning coffee. We enjoyed our stay and will recommend to friends and family.
