Maison Blanche I French-Inspired Retreat on 2.5 Acres I Sleeps 13
Maison Blanche is a private French-inspired retreat nestled on 2.5 wooded acres in the Texas Hill Country. Thoughtfully designed for effortless entertaining and slow mornings, this upscale home blends timeless European charm with modern luxury. Enjoy spacious living areas, a gourmet kitchen, wine closet, media room, and peaceful outdoor spaces-just minutes from Lake Travis and Lake Austin, golf and fine dining. Just 25 minutes from downtown!
The Space
Maison Blanche was designed to feel like a place you could happily spend the entire weekend. The open, light-filled interiors create an easy flow between the kitchen, dining and living spaces, while the surrounding acreage gives you room to slow down and enjoy the quiet of the Hill Country.
The home comfortably accommodates up to 13 guests across five bedrooms, with four king bedrooms and a dedicated bunk room that’s especially great for families. There are 4.5 bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, a private wine closet, and a media room for movie nights and rainy afternoons. Conveniently located near Lake Travis and Lake Austin, and with ample room to park a boat - this home was built for lake days in the sun!
Outside, the wooded property provides plenty of space to gather, dine, or simply enjoy a morning coffee beneath the trees. Inside, thoughtful details, comfortable furnishings, and carefully selected finishes make the home feel polished without ever feeling formal.
The location gives you the best of both worlds: a peaceful home base with plenty of privacy, while still being close to everything that makes the Austin area special. Spend the day on the lake, explore nearby restaurants and wineries, catch live music downtown, or simply stay home and enjoy the property.
Guest access Guests have exclusive access to the entire home and private property during their stay. The garage is locked and reserved for owner/storage use, but there is ample parking on the property, including five spaces near the garage and additional parking in the circular driveway. Guests will have private, contactless access using their personal door code.

This is an excellent property and a really fun location! Comfortable beds, excellent attention to detail, thoughtful extras (like extra toothbrushes, hygiene needs, snacks, a bottle of bubbly in the fridge).Host is responsive, and kind. The property is among the finest I’ve ever stayed in, especially at a reasonable price point. Will definitely book again in the future.
