About this property

Spirit of the Hawk - Wildlife lovers delight on wet weather pond

Modern cabin in serene setting

Experience the best of the Texas Hill Country in style! Spirit of the Hawk is a beautiful, modern, extremely comfortable guesthouse on a 26-acre property. It’s the perfect place for a quiet, secluded getaway surrounded by nature, where you can also enjoy the gorgeous design and thoughtful touches personally curated by the husband-and-wife team who renovated this special building. The property is 8 miles from the Wimberley Square, where the building used to reside as an antique and home furnishings shop, “The Spirit of the Hawk.” The shop owner poured her heart and soul into the build and used as much reclaimed material as possible. In that spirit, though the home has been fully gutted and remodeled, any original material that could be reused or repurposed was, which is reflected in the charming, rustic exterior and details like the stunning stained-glass window and original shop sign.

You’re a quick, easy drive to several attractions—wineries, breweries, restaurants, shops—but you may find it tough to pull yourself away from the property, which has a private gated entrance and offers just that: total privacy.

The space

Inside, relish the comforts of the king bed and spacious, bright open living area and fully stocked, fabulous kitchen with high ceilings and windows providing views of the surrounding woods. Outside, relax with a cup of coffee or glass of wine on the lovely porch with comfy furnishings. The porch looks out onto a wet weather pond that draws in deer and other wildlife.

Guest access

26 acres shared with the owners’ home, which is behind another privacy gate on a totally separate part of the property. Plenty of space and privacy to soak up nature. Chris and Kayla take great pride in creating a relaxed and peaceful, classy stay, away from the hustle and bustle.

I cannot say enough good things about this hill country retreat!! The setting is beautiful, the decor is stunning, and every detail has been so thoughtfully planned to make this property a perfect getaway! The back porch is my favorite!

Elevated Comfort

We were lucky enough to be the first renters to stay in this newly renovated home in Wimberley. The owners did an exquisite job updating. Hands down the nicest place we’ve stayed in throughout our travels. The attention to detail carefully poured into the total design of the space creates an elevated but comfortable space. The property doesn’t disappoint either. Simply stunning property full of open spaces and wildlife. The owners were amazing and great communicators. Spirit of the Hawk is a must stay!
