Butler Cabin at The Homestead B&B

Welcome to the historic Homestead at the Dripping Springs. This house is one of three available lodgings each of the three dwellings are unique to their time period, style and setting. Clara's House and Willie Mae's Cottage are all part of the Homestead at the Dripping Springs and can be reserved at the same time to sleep 8 people. The property contains the original dripping springs for which the town was named. The Homestead is centrally located in the Historic Mercer Street District of Dripping Springs, close to shops, wedding venues, wine trails, parks and beautiful country roads.

Come back to a simpler time at The Butler Cabin. Relax on the porch with your coffee or under the shade of the giant oak fenced corral where a swing, table and chairs and washer pitching remind you of days gone by. The cabin has an antique high-back wooden bed, rocking chairs, small kitchenette, stand up shower and an antique wardrobe reflecting the time period.

Includes free continental breakfast, AC, flat screen TV, WIFI, queen-sized bed, hairdryer, and a snack basket.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Great location and very comfortable
Because of the possibility of flooding, I called and found extremely nice people that gave us options. We stuck to our original plan and had a wonderful time. The homemade breads were delicious. The grounds gorgeous and able to get down to the actual Dripping Springs. So nice to walk to any place in town from our wonderful Butler Cabin. Bed, bathroom, table and sitting on the front porch were all very comfortable. I would stay here again in a heartbeat!

It is certainly a unique property but is quiet and comfortable with everything in good working condition. Checkin can't be beat. The wi-fi was a bit iffy but we found a local TV channel we could watch that worked reliably. It's a good stay for a couple of nights.

We had a high school reunion, and we stayed downtown Dripping Springs. We were able to walk to everything on Mercer. The cabin is adorable. The host left baked goods, and the interior was cozy and comfortable. The host quickly responded. Overall it was a wonderful experience.
