Gorgeous Log Home on Private Acres

Paper Moon is a lovely log cabin nestled among oaks and elms in the quiet countryside, just 1.5 miles from downtown Wimberley. You’ll cross a scenic low water crossing over Pierce Creek, a wet-weather creek that runs through the front of the property, as you drive in. This spacious cabin was lovingly hand-built in 1985, and has been recently renovated by the current owners while retaining its rustic charm.
Paper Moon is ideal for family and friend gatherings as well as romantic escapes. Shopping and dining in Wimberley is only 5 minutes away, or you can just stay at the cabin and watch the deer graze as you enjoy your morning coffee from the porch, have a family BBQ on the covered deck, enjoy the hot tub and fire pit, or snuggle up by the fireplace. Thischarming log home with 3 bedrooms (2 private, 1 loft) and two bathrooms features a hot tub, outdoor seating, a fire pit, a large covered deck, charcoal grill and hammock.
The name Paper Moon comes from a popular portrait fad that began in the late 19th century. It was an inexpensive and fun way to have one’s portrait taken and paper moon booths were often set up at fairs and carnivals. We enjoy these vintage portraits which often depict folks with big grins having a good time, unlike traditional portraits of the time. As you meander from room to room in our charming cabin you’ll find vintage paper moon photos hanging on the walls, including some sent in by previous guests.

This eco-conscious cabin offers: recycling, eco-friendly soaps, detergents & cleaning products, recycled premium paper products and a reverse-osmosis drinking water system (no need for plastic bottles).
Pet Fee:
Our pet fee is $50 each for friendly, leashed pets. Please declare pets at time of booking (max 2 pets without prior approval).
VRBO NOTE: Vrbo only charges one pet fee, so a 2nd pet fee will be added after booking, if applicable.

Please note: the water at the Pierce Creek low water crossing is designed to gently flow over the road, however, the water can rise during periods of extremely heavy rain so please use good judgment before crossing. This generally doesn't happen more than a couple of times a year, and we find that it typically recedes to a normal level within an hour or two of the rain stopping. We're always happy to pop over and take a look if you're unsure about the water level.

Unplugged Christmas

We needed a long weekend getaway with minimal electronics to celebrate Christmas - and your cabin provided. While we didn't use the hot tub, we enjoyed the fire pit one night with ghost stories and beverages. Your dining table was the perfect size for working jigsaw puzzles. Thank you for letting us add our daughter-in-law and toddler grandson at the last minute. He loved the stairs!! We relaxed, laughed, and went into town only once. We were only a mile or so from town and yet felt we were in a remote country location with bright stars. Thank you again and again for your quick responses and loan of your wonderful cabin. It was perfect!

Sharpening the Saw

This property was perfect because it is just outside of Wimberly, so we enjoyed some privacy and the roomy yard. There was plenty of space for the kids and our fur baby to play in. Grandma enjoyed coffee on the porch. The cabin itself is very roomy. We had my husband, myself, our 3 boys ages 9, 14 and 16, Grandma, and our fur baby Bella. There was plenty of room for all to be comfortable. When we were ready to do some shopping, we had less than a 2 mile drive up the road to Wimberly Square. There are many great places to eat, but one of the best parts of the cabin is that it is fully stocked. You have everything you need to cook or barbecue. We have already booked our return stay. We can't wait to see what the holidays look like in Wimberly and enjoy some hot chocolate by the fire pit. 💕

Great location

Great location, close to town, if you are traveling with a pet this location is ideal. Cabin could use some work, and the exterior windows were full of hornets nests and cobwebs, could use a good exterior cleaning. Hosts were sweet and left us champagne and coffee beans, as well as treats for our pup which was very kind! We would stay there again.

The property was beautiful. The last day there we saw 2 deer grazing outside our bedroom window. Loved the quiet evenings around the fire pit telling stories and laughing together.

Winter Book Club Retreat!

My book club stayed at this place for our end of the year winter retreat!! It was isolated enough for us to sit around and snack, rest, and read! But close enough to town to go out for dinner and shop! We had a wonderful stay!

Nice home base for wedding

Overall, our stay was pleasant. The cabin could use a fall cleaning. We did see 2 dead roaches and one live one. There were large cobwebs in the bathroom windows. Things were pretty dusty. But, this is a country cabin and we rolled with it.We did not use the hottubso i can't speak to that. There was traffic noise outside and very steep stairs leading to the room with the king bed. Overall, it was fine. Location is nice for downtown Wimberly shopping and nearby wineries.

Cabin is great, outside noise detracted from scenic setting

We had a great stay. The cabin is as-described - well-appointed, cozy, had all the tools we needed. No complaints about the property. Owners were communicative. A couple things out of the owner's control detracted from our full relaxation. The nights we stayed a neighbor's dog was barking voraciously all night long, disrupting our peaceful campfire. And the noise from adjacent FM12 pulled us back to the reality of being in a town and not in the country, as the property's charms will lead you to believe. (we awoke to bucks battling in the field!) Am I being picky? Yes. But with as few vacations as I take, I bring my own high expectations, and the noise bugged me. It may not bother you! It was less bothersome to some of my friends, so just bringing it up if you're noise-sensitive like me. Proximity to Blue Hole was perfect and why we chose this property,

Owners were very communicative and we very much enjoyed our stay. The only feedback I can give is that the fan in the indoor fireplace needed to be lubricated. Very noisy and rusty when we tried using fireplace.
