Gorgeous landscaping and adorable rounded archways invite you up onto the covered front porch where you can sit back and take in the fresh air of the stunning Hill Country! Character spills out of this 1930s retro-style home as you walk through the front door. Surrounded by windows, the living room has comfortable seating for all. Guests can gather around the stunning fireplace and catch up with one another while time passes by! This space also features a large flatscreen television in the built-ins if a movie night is on your agenda! Gorgeous french doors lead you into a formal dining room where you can sit down and share a meal together. Continuing through the dining room, bright pops of blue catch your eyes from the full kitchen.

Covered patio areas wrap around the sides of the house for guests to sip coffee and take in this beautiful property at Milk Bath Springs! Wondering where the name “Milk Bath Springs” comes from? This house is downstream from the original “dripping springs” (which the town is named after) and it flows into our very own historic “Milk Springs” where nearby settlers, in the 1800 and early 1900s would put their dairy items in the ice cold spring to keep them fresh. This spring box is located in a beautiful grotto located at the back of our property. You can see into the grotto from the yard!

Bike along the Pedernales River or horseback ride at Reimers Ranch Park. Spend the day at Dreamland playing mini golf and pickleball, and in the evening you can take in the various art exhibits, live music, and unique food spots! Located just 25 minutes west of Austin and 20 minutes north of Wimberley, Dripping Springs is tucked into the center of the beautiful Hill Country with a lot more to explore!

The house is very comfortable and charming. We did have a good time with family and our dog loved the big yard. Unfortunately We were not able to locate the spring within the property and the management company wasn’t very helpful with the information. In general nice property and great location.

Perfect location for family holiday gathering and then wedding in the area. 85 parents were extremely comfortable and could explore the outdoors, sun in rocking chairs or do puzzles as we all reflected on the experiences over coffee and quiche from the oven.

1930’s Cuteness

House was very nice and clean. The outside of the property could use a little maintenance. The orange spray paint on the fence from maybe the neighbor was a little strange. Had a great weekend and a beautiful wedding for my granddaughter so how could it not be perfect. I would definitely recommend it with great location.

Great stay!

We stayed at the property to attend a family wedding in Dripping Springs. The house is in a great location - really close to everything but feels like the country. We enjoyed looking around the property and seeing the outbuildings from when it was a farm (we guess). The house was very clean and everything we needed was there. It was great just sitting on the front porch enjoying our time. Definitely recommend!
