Charming historic cottage

The cottage was very historic with a lot of charm. Comfortable beds and sofa, large bathroom, sun filled dining room. The only challenge was the kitchen. Functional, but not great to prep a dinner in. If you’re not cooking and don’t need counter space or much in the way of kitchen tools, it’s fine. Good homemade sweet bread for breakfast.

Great property. Timeless with history, quaint. Very convenient to shopping, restaurants and entertainment. Aside from being near a busy street, it was fairly quiet. We enjoyed listening to nature and sitting on the patio in the rocking chairs in the evening; very delightful. Only complaint was the bed was fairly uncomfortable and the AC at night didn’t stay very cool; the reason for 4 stars and not 5. Otherwise this was a very nice place to relax and unwind. I would definitely recommend and we would come back and bring friends with us because there was an extra room with a queen bed. The breakfast basket was a nice touch- the homemade breads were delicious! Thank you to our hosts. Extremely easy check in and check out!

Wonderful Stay at Clara's House

My husband and I recently spent 3 nights at Clara's House in Dripping Springs. The house was immaculate and cozy. The yummy sweetbreads, bagels, yogurt and juice were an added bonus at breakfast time. We enjoyed evenings on the front porch after a day of sightseeing and shopping in Dripping Springs , Austin, and nearby Wimberly. Sherry and Charlie are the owners, and I enjoyed hearing about the history of the house when I met them. We would love to come again next time we are in the area!

Clara's House at THE Dripping Spring

A friend and I stayed at Clara's House while we were in town for a wedding. We absolutely loved the charm of the house and getting to explore the actual dripping spring the town is named after. Will definitely be staying here next time I'm in town!
