Spicewood’s Best Getaway for Fall with a Natural Spring Swimming Hole!

We are Nestled in a stunning nature setting, this unique haven boasts captivating rock formations and a Private Natural Spring-fed Spicewood Creek right behind the house. It feels like a destination of its own—a truly magical experience with it's beauty, purity, calmness, and serenity.

Spicewood Creek Home is on 2 acres, boast 4 bedrooms with an open and spacious family room with Smart TV & wrap-around porch with many seating areas. A large open kitchen with gas stove top; outdoor gas grill available & a large outdoor fire pit to roast S’mores.

Dive deep into your artistic journey amidst the serene beauty of our getaway.
It's a 3K sq foot custom home on 2.0 acres on a bluff overlooking a beautiful cypress tree lined clear creek. This creek is spring fed and refreshingly cold! Guest use the creek fed swimming hole to swim. It is refreshingly cold just in front of house. Sit on the wrap-around porch and listen to the waterfalls that borders our property and enjoy the nature setting. Find your peace, relax and get away from it all with your family and friends.

It is secluded from the city for peace and quiet, yet this beautiful home is still close to shopping, vineyards, water sports, golf and great local restaurants. The Spicewood Creek House is all about relaxing, whether it is on the deep wrap around porch or in the hammock, or swimming* in the sparkling water below in the deep creek fed swimming hole, there is something for everyone. (*please note: seasonally the water in the creek can be lower if it is a drier time of year. We cannot predict this.)

*The swimming hole is for our community/neighborhood!*
You are really in the country, which is nice and peaceful, and nature is especially soothing; however, there are critters here that can be dangerous, so be Very Alert! It is advisable to NOT sit on or turn over any rocks without first looking carefully.

Lunar Sightseeing: For the best view, use binoculars with at least 7x magnification, though 10x or 15x will reveal more detail—just keep a tripod handy for stability.

Our rock patio above that has a table set for those who wish to picnic outdoors and a hammock hanging from a tree that calls for a good book to read.

This Texas House with handsome wide planked hardwood flooring is equipped to handle up to 8 people with 4 bedrooms and 3 full baths. We cannot allow additional guest to come on property. This home is not designed for larger groups or parties of more than 8 people day or night.

On the porches are rockers on the front of the house and teak sofas and a table that seats six with fabulous views of the bluff below. There are adirondack chairs close to the bluff with amazing views of the water, as well. You can also make arrangements for porchside massage therapy with mobile therapists from the Austin area. There are so many places and ways to relax. Your hardest decision will be where and what!

Things to do in the area:
Located in the TX Hill Country which is the home of favorite and country music legend Willie Nelson. Spicewood has a charm all its own. Fantastic barbecue, rolling hills, fabulous vineyards, and incredible views make this day trip really memorable. You’ll feel miles away from the city while still satisfying that need for novelty.
*12 Miles to the Hill Country Galleria,
*28 Miles to The TX State Capitol and the TX Longhorn Campus.
*20 Miles away is Hamilton Pool
*18 Miles to Milton Reimers Ranch Park and a beautiful drive and has Mountain
Climbing, Hiking and Mountain Biking Trails.
*12 Miles away you can go for a swim in the Pedernales River! The hike from the parking lot to the river is approximately 0.25 miles down a steep grade.
*11 Miles from Krause Springs is definitely a top five natural water destination in the area. There are jump off points, a rope swing, waterfalls, and a hidden grotto spread among the 32 springs and the man made natural pool. Plan to spend the day here hiking around or sunbathing on the giant rocks.
*19 Miles away you can also explore the Texas Skies at the Reimers Observatory is an astronomical observatory located inside Reimers Ranch Park. Reservations for observatory programs are required to be in the park after dark. The road to the Beach. Keep in mind that you will need to be prepared to pay your entry fee by cash, no credit cards are accepted.
*11.5 Miles is Muleshoe Bend Recreation Area -Enjoy Rolling fields of bluebonnets pop up in the spring, an awesome sight to behold. During the 'non-wildflower season', come here to hike the trails, enjoy the green fields, and dip your toes in the water.
*5 Miles away is Cypress Valley Canopy Tour, five ziplines that take you through a wild ride from platform to platform. After your tour, you can take a dip in their small private lake and have a picnic.
*2 Miles don’t forget go to Spicewood without stopping into Poodie’s Hilltop Bar & Grill. This legendary venue is the watering hole for all kinds of famous Texans, likely because the original owner, Poodie Locke, was Willie Nelson’s stage manager.
*5 Miles to Willie Nelson’s Pedernales Cut-N-Putt is exactly the opposite of that country club scene. It’s golf, the Willie Way and that means fun.
*10.5 Miles to Iron Wolf Ranch and Distillery is a family-owned and family friendly with games and a playground for kiddos spread out on 15 acres of land, with entertainment every Saturday.
*12 Miles to Spicewood Vineyards. Family-owned, the vineyards are gorgeous and their tasting space feels like you’re hanging out in a friend’s home. On the 'Friday Night Wine Down' on the 1st Friday of the month, and other casual gatherings that bring wine together with that Texas life.
