- "This was our first time in Johnson City and Kristin was very accommodating and gave some awesome recommendations for eating (Pecan Street Brewery, Bryan’s on 290, and El Charro). She was very friendly and the property was very well kept. We were greeted with some chickens and a very friendly dog. The room was immaculate and the porches were top notch. Great place to stay!" - "As advertised, will book again!" - "My wife and I found this place on VRBO and was a little concerned because it was one of the few places still available, due to our last minute booking. But, wow we were so surprised that we got so lucky. I guess this is a hidden gem that not many people know about. We stayed in the main house and had a beautiful room and private bath. Kristin the host was simply amazing. She welcomed us at the front door with a big smile and told us a little about the property and showed us our room. She runs a clean, safe, and quiet BnB. We strongly recommend it."

" - "The yurt was extremely cute, but the air conditioner squeaked for the entirety of our stay and never cooled beyond 75 degrees. Fans were provided which means they know that the air conditioner would not adequately cool the space, even at night. It was uncomfortable evening. "

Make the Helmly house your home away from home. Also known as “The Barnwell house”, the building was built in 1913 by Dr. James Franklin Barnwell who established it as Blanco County’s first hospital.

All the rooms also feature beautiful ceiling fans for your comfort.
Enjoy the living room with a view of the Blanco County Courthouse. This view is especially magical from Thanksgiving through the New Year’s holidays because the downtown area is lit with over 2 million Christmas lights.

This tiny house and its twin (The Green Casita) offer luxurious Texas Hill Country accommodations that are easily accessible yet feel a world away from urban life. Reserve one Casita for your party of up to 5, or both if you need space for 10. Enjoy the Casitas’ private refuge on 55 acres surrounded by hill country views with the comforts of an upscale hotel. You may spot deer, turkey, rabbits, roadrunners and even fox from your deck.
Each Casita offers an open space with soaring ceilings that create an airiness not often found in a tiny house. The main floor features a queen bed and the loft (accessible by a ladder) offers both a full bed and a twin bed. The living room has a 60 inch Smart TV. The house provides wifi throughout. The kitchen features a dining table, microwave, coffee maker, toaster oven, electric burner, and a retro style SMEG refrigerator. Dishes, pans and utensils are included. If you prefer cooking outside, take advantage of the full-size pellet grill on your covered deck. Because of the ladder to the open loft above, the Casitas are not recommended for walking children under 6.
If you do choose to venture out of your refuge, you will find yourself conveniently located near many activities and attractions. The Casitas at Caballo Creek are situated in the middle of wineries from Fredericksburg to Driftwood, offering the perfect home base for serious wine tasting. Similarly the area is home to many distilleries and breweries.
The area is well known for its abundance of parks and swimming holes including Pedernales Falls State Park (a 5 minute drive), Hamilton Pool, Riemers Ranch Park, Blanco State Park and more.
Each conveniently located only about 20 minutes away, the towns of Dripping Springs and Johnson City boast a variety of offerings. You will find restaurant options from casual Mexican food to fine dining. Shopping includes boutiques and antiques. Dripping Springs has been called “The Wedding Capital of Texas”, and the Casita is conveniently located near a host of wedding venues. Johnson City is home to the Science Mill for children, The Exotic Resort Zoo and of course, the Lyndon Johnson Boyhood Home. If you’ld like to explore even further, you’ll be only about 45 minutes from Fredericksburg and an hour from downtown Austin.
