Located only a few miles from town, this log cabin dates back 150 years. Built by your host's great grandfather, the log cabin was recently moved to its new home from the family home-place just a half mile away. The original log cabin is small… a fachwerk addition was added during the restoration. A German style wire fence and gate border the house and yard along with a windmill to create a feeling of days-gone-by.
The wrap around porch begins at the front of the house and goes around to the back overlooking fields and pastures. Inside the living room is the original log cabin. A comfortable leather sofa and chair along with an array of antiques are found. Watch your head as you enter the kitchen through the original log cabin door leading into the kitchen. Stained etched cement floors are found throughout the house. The kitchen provides a coffee bar with a sink, microwave, small refrigerator and coffeemaker.
The distinctive bathroom has rustic cabinets with a leaf print designed sink. Unique green tiles top the countertop and line the large shower. Interesting features include rope used as molding to join the walls and ceiling and designs of trees and animals on the cabinets and woodwork.
A vaulted ceiling with natural woods showcases the magnificent handcrafted, iron king-size bed. From the bed, the airy room faces the whirlpool tub in the adjacent room. The whirlpool tub is trimmed in limestone and has a majestic framed mirror on the wall overlooking it. Rock floors have a wet, shiny look creating a wonderful glow. Providing a view of the woods and a seasonal creek is a glass door that opens outside onto the back porch.
Please Note: You are renting a cabin in the Hill Country which means you may encounter wildlife (Snakes, Deer, Racoons, ETC). Please be aware of your surroundings, and take caution while driving at night. You may also encounter the various bugs, spiders, scorpions and mice that live in the country AND sometimes do make their way inside. All properties do utilize pest control services on a regular basis BUT this does not guarantee no pests or bugs will be visible.
