Milk Bath Springs House | Pet Friendly - 1930's inspired Retreat!

Step back in time! Milk Bath Springs, a 1930's inspired Hill Country retreat will have guests smiling with its pops of color, cozy interior, and comfortable surroundings. With 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, Milk Bath will sleep up to 6 guests and a couple four-legged family members (some restrictions apply*). For larger groups, additional accommodations are available next door at the Milk Bath Springs Cottage, offering space for up to 4 guests. Located in the historic district of downtown Dripping Springs, only a 5 minute walk from town, Milk Bath Springs is the perfect stay for your next Hill Country escape. Enjoy day trips visiting the charming downtown area to notable restaurants and shops on Mercer Street, such as Thyme & Dough! This property is also within short driving distance of most wedding venues, breweries, and other local tourist attractions!

As you pull down the driveway of Milk Bath Springs, find a piece of history in this updated charming house! Gorgeous landscaping and adorable rounded archways invite you up onto the covered front porch where you can sit back and take in the fresh air of the stunning Hill Country! Character spills out of this 1930s retro-style home as you walk through the front door. Surrounded by windows, the living room has comfortable seating for all. Guests can gather around the stunning fireplace and catch up with one another while time passes by! This space also features a large flatscreen television in the built-ins if a movie night is on your agenda! Gorgeous french doors lead you into a formal dining room where you can sit down and share a meal together. Continuing through the dining room, bright pops of blue catch your eyes from the full kitchen. This space is complete with retro robin's egg blue appliances, including a full sized refrigerator, cooktop stove, and microwave! A fun tiled floor contrasts with these colorful appliances to make this a unique and exciting space to prepare meals for one another! This space also contains a small breakfast table for a quick bite.

Five large windows spill natural light into Bedroom 1. Featuring a king bed, ensuite bathroom, and access to the back porch, this room is one you won’t want to give up!

The beautiful outdoor space is something to write home about! A side patio features a pergola that sits over an outdoor dining area, where you can enjoy a meal in the wonderful Hill Country weather! Covered patio areas wrap around the sides of the house for guests to sip coffee and take in this beautiful property at Milk Bath Springs! Wondering where the name “Milk Bath Springs” comes from? This house is downstream from the original “dripping springs” (which the town is named after) and it flows into our very own historic “Milk Springs” where nearby settlers, in the 1800 and early 1900s would put their dairy items in the ice cold spring to keep them fresh. This spring box is located in a beautiful grotto located at the back of our property. You can see into the grotto from the yard!

Want to explore more of Dripping Springs? Shop in the Historic District of Dripping Springs with charming boutiques, vintage stores, and coffee shops. Tour and taste along the winding Hill Country at the many wineries, breweries, and distilleries. Feeling more adventurous? Take a dip in the Hamilton Pool Preserve, one of the area's most beautiful natural landscapes with a 50-foot waterfall cascading over beautiful limestone! Bike along the Pedernales River or horseback ride at Reimers Ranch Park. Spend the day at Dreamland playing mini golf and pickleball, and in the evening you can take in the various art exhibits, live music, and unique food spots! Located just 25 minutes west of Austin and 20 minutes north of Wimberley, Dripping Springs is tucked into the center of the beautiful Hill Country with a lot more to explore!

Inside was very clean. However, we killed lots of spiders and bugs. Unacceptable! Spare bedroom door had no covering, unacceptable. Main bedroom had no outlets near bed for my CPAP machine. Again, unacceptable’

Great stay!
We stayed at the property to attend a family wedding in Dripping Springs. The house is in a great location - really close to everything but feels like the country. We enjoyed looking around the property and seeing the outbuildings from when it was a farm (we guess). The house was very clean and everything we needed was there. It was great just sitting on the front porch enjoying our time. Definitely recommend!

Milk Bath Springs house
Really enjoyed this property. The interior is nicely furnished and the beds were comfortable. The exterior grounds are rustic and the grass is all dead. I believe this is due to the current drought and the city not allowing the property to be watered. Really enjoyed sitting on the rockers on the front porch and cooking on the charcoal grill. Overall I would recommend this property.

Perfect for a small group of friends on a Gals-Get-Away
We came to see the waterfalls. We, also, went to the Olive Company. It was a great place for lunch. The house was perfect for us. We each had our own beds, and two bathrooms were perfect for 4-women. The neighborhood was quiet and house was in a central location for everything we were wanting to do. We would definitely stay here again. (please do not post the following. There is a very bad ant problem in the kitchen. We had to throw away 1-1/2 loaves of bread, cereals, and other food items that were not in tightly sealed containers. Also, for the middle bedroom, if you would consider putting a curtain of some kind over the door windows. We taped a towel up over the bedroom door's windows for privacy.)

wonderful place in old Dripping Springs
Overall, the property was great. The kitchen could use a few more items like glassware, etc. Also, we got a tissue box that had about three tissues in it so had to go purchase a box. For what we paid, it would have been nice to supply some. We liked the house very much though and will rent again.

Cozy home
We came in from out of state for Christmas to visit family. The home was clean and cozy. Very cute. Everything worked great. Property management communicated and answered any questions I had. Under beds were pretty dusty and maybe forgotten about but not horrible. Washer and dryer located outside of the home so you have to walk outside to access which wasn’t a big deal because weather was good. There is a Keurig coffee maker so if you’re a coffee drinker, make sure you bring your own coffee! It was very quiet and peaceful and great location. We will definitely stay there again.

We had a lovely stay! The house is cute and decorated really nicely. The only thing missing is a washer dryer, it would have been very nice to have since we were at the house for a few nights. Quiet area and close to town, so very convenient.

Not as advertised
We rented the property specifically because it advertised a fenced in property that was pet friendly. The gate at the property has fallen off the hinges and the fence is not closed in. I wouldn't mind walking my dog however I have a broken foot which posed a huge problem. WIFI did not work. The property manager and I were in contact but there was not router in the home. We had to use our phone hotspots to watch television.

Great property overall
We enjoyed our stay at Milk Bath Springs House. Cute interior and plenty of room for our crew. Something was wrong with the refrigerator. The freezer looked like it snowed inside and the fridge would not get cold. May want to have that checked. The outside looks nothing like the inside. It wasn’t very well kept outdoors. The gates were broken and it looked a little run down when we first arrived. We were able to overlook the negatives and enjoyed our stay very much.

Mixed experience
Outside property is different from the pictures. Did not see the pergola, plant boxes, the yard was mostly dirt with brown weeds. The house is nicely decorated inside. The living room furniture and beds were comfortable. Unfortunately, the fireplace was full of ashes and caused the entire house to smell like a campfire. The WIFI did not work so the TV did not work. We had to share one roll of toilet paper between 2 bathrooms, one of the light bulbs in the 2nd bathroom did not work, very little hand soap (which was watered down) in bathrooms. There was no kitchen towels or paper towels. Appreciated the Keurig coffee maker and cups provided. There were no bath mats so used a towel instead. Called the management company. They dropped off one roll of TP, one hand soap and 2 light bulbs. Discovered the light socket was broken. Never got the WIFI fixed. I was told that Spectrum had been called but I found out it was for the unit next door. Asked the Spectrum worker onsite and he told me that he did not see that the house was serviced by Spectrum. There was no equipment at the house. We were there to attend a wedding. The master bathroom had a bathtub with a hand shower nozzle. It would have been difficult to get in and out of for most people, so the 5 of us shared the 2nd bathroom shower. Getting ready in that 2nd bathroom with one light was challenging. We never found the Washer/Dryer.

The main house is very cute and well decorated. It’s spacious enough for 5-6 people. It was very clean. It’s nice to be able to sit in and he outside spaces for some fresh air.
