Creek Front Property! Spicewood Cabin Near Wintergreen and Crabtree Falls

9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (116)
"Cabin was small but adorable. Was nestled in the woods with creeks nearby. Stream wasn’t super full when we were there but you can hear the stream behind the trees when sitting outside! The beds were comfy, kitchen was stocked. Outside had a great fire pit area, bench by the creek, outdoor swing for kids, and a hammock. So close to crab tree falls and major hikes (the priest). There was a great Orchard- pick your own- 10min away. Great location. Would stay again."
