Our second stay at the Butler cabin, just perfect for us. The location is right where we want to be, the cabin is well appointed, no detail left out, stocked with provisions and Sherry makes the best breakfast breads! Would always recommend this property.

Delightful Cabin

This is a little hidden treasure in downtown Dripping Springs historical district. It is next to the actual spring. It has every thing one would need to be comfortable. My husband enjoyed having his morning coffee on the front porch in a rocking chair. I plan to stay there again on my next trip!

The cabin was clean, convenient, and comfortable with a great history. I really enjoyed the breakfast bread and other breakfast items provided. It’s located on a busy street, but still pretty quiet. I would stay there again when in Dripping Springs!

Historic lodging near downtown Dripping Springs

Loved our stay in the Butler Cabin. Great location, within walking distance of ‘downtown’ Dripping Springs. Enjoyed reading about the history of the cabin and town. The cabin and furnishings were fresh and clean. We appreciated your hospitality and hope to stay in one of your cabins on our next trip to Dripping Springs.

Nice Anniversary weekend!

We had an amazing time at the Butlers Cabin. It was great place to spend a few nights together. There is a coffe shop and store within walking distance. I love the chairs and swing in the back, very peaceful. I recommend completely.

Most Excellent

This is a very comfortable cabin with a short walk to the historic district and many shops, coffee shops, and restaurants. The cabin is clean and well stocked with lots of snacks. If you're driving a dully it is best to back into the cabin parking. The gate coming into the driveway is very narrow, and more difficult to back out of them into.

Birthday weekend in Dripping Springs

What a quaint place to stay! Do not let the outside picture scare you off. Inside was great, the A/C worked great. The bed was comfortable, and the loaf of bread each morning was yummy. Wifi worked and the television was nice. Very close to town and walkingdiatance to restaurants, shops.

Family visit

The cabin was perfect. The snacks were excellent. The only suggestion we would make is maybe a new mattress. I have terrible arthritis and the bed made my back hurt. Very uncomfortable. We loved the location and will definitely stay again in one of the other houses.

Cute & Cozy

Had a wonderful weekend stay in this quaint little cabin! My husband and I happened to stay on the weekend that Dripping Springs held a Christmas event in their downtown area. The streets were closed off, but we couldn’t have been closer to walk down to the shops and restaurants to enjoy the festivities. The weather could not have been worse that weekend, rainy and cold, but we were warm and comfy in the cabin. It was not drafty at all! Also, just have to add, all the reviews about the homemade bread did not disappoint! The loaves were delicious and much appreciated! Fun place to stay!

Great for couple or individual

Stayed four days/three nights. Location of cabin on Main Street-walking distance to shops/bars. Cabin had one large room w/bed and sitting area to eat. Kitchen was fully functional -didn’t have an oven but microwave. Owners baked homemade bread (2loaves) for us when we arrived. Dropped off more bread on our third day. Full size bathroom- had soaps/shampoo if needed. Perfect for a couple or individual.

Butler Cabin

Weekend trip. Walkable shopping, restaurant, coffee/bakery shop, and lots of bars. Noisy Saturday night, live music somewhere that we could hear until at least 1130. We stayed up watching movie, so not a big deal. Highway is close so you'll be glad to have the white noise machine if you go to bed early. Great location if you're going out at night. Cute cabin with continental breakfast. Loved sitting outside under the oak tree and reading.

Rustic but Cozy Getaway Got Us Back to Nature!

The historic Butler Cabin and its sister cabins are situated perfectly, directly across from the Dripping Springs Visitors Center and Historical Society at the end of a very neat neighborhood on South Mercer Street. The best thing about our cabin, however, was that the Dripping Springs for which the town is named are located behind it in a secluded, wooded area. Despite the summer heat, my wife and I would spend hours just meditating by the springs and taking in nature. Between that and the special amenities provided by the property owners (fresh-baked bread waiting on our arrival), we couldn't have asked for a better stay! The owners were also very communicative and helpful, assisting us in getting rid of a hornets nest and when we got locked out of the cabin (totally my fault). Our stay here was actually the best part of our Austin trip, and we look forward to returning to our little nature getaway.
