The Moonshiner: Prohibition with a Steampunk Twist

The Moonshiner Cabin is a perfectly curated, hand-built treasure. Let it transport you back in time to an era of cocktails and jazz. The owners have lovingly curated this cabin using The Prohibition Era as inspiration and we guarantee there’s nothing else like it! Just a short jaunt to town, yet nestled among the oaks on 1.5 acres, this cabin has everything you require of modern life, but the charm and romance of a different century.
Gregory, a local craftsman, built nearly every inch of the cabin, including much of the furniture and all the light fixtures. Whenever possible he tucked the modern world just a little out of sight, including a hidden smart TV that drops down from the ceiling. This is truly a a one-of-a-kind retreat.

The Moonshiner Cabin is nestled among the hills and streams of the Hill Country, in the charming little village of Wimberley. Folks visit Wimberley to feel like they’ve traveled back to a bygone era where kids swing off ropes into creeks, everyone knows their neighbor, time slows down and summer nights under the stars last an eternity. This cabin embraces that nostalgic longing and we invite you to come stay for a spell.
Pet policy:
Up to two friendly, leashed pets are welcome. Our pet fee is $50/pet. Please crate pets that are left alone. If you have more than two pets, please discuss before booking.
Note: the cabin is surrounded by nature on three sides and has a neighbor on the 4th side. There is a nice privacy fence on the neighbor side of the property. This property is not suitable for children.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and space to spread out with a separate bedroom and a dining area. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Lovely weekend getaway
We traveled in from Houston for a concert at Whitewater Amphitheater. This property was perfect for just the two of us. Peaceful and quiet, very clean and so cute! Gregory and Jennifer were wonderful at communicating with us, and we plan on going again soon!

Moonshiner review
Very quaint and retro accomodations as we expected. The cast iron side rails on the bed were a bother for an older person as myself who has to get up at least 2 times or more a night to use the bathroom. The metal base for the wooden stove is a hazard for older people at night. The tub needs a tub mat so people won't slip. The outdoor shower probably needs a door rather than a curtain or else find a way to anchor the bottom to keep from opening in the wind. We wanted to use the fan but it was very very noisy. Suggest oiling it or update it. We hope you will use our constructive criticism. Thanks. The Pachecos

Great little cabin
My wife and I stayed at this little cabin and very much enjoyed our stay. The place was one of the cleanest that we’ve ever stayed in. Even though there is a house very close by and it’s only about a mile and a half from town it feels very secluded and private because of the cedar post fence. Loved the hot tub and outdoor shower. My only dislike is the French press coffee maker. That’s on me though because I’m so spoiled with the keurig. Highly recommend this cabin.

Stop looking...this place is perfect!
I brought my wife here as a surprise long weekend getaway for her birthday. The attention to detail and unique esthetic of The Moonshiner cabin definitely made for a memorable experience. The old world charm with a steampunk flair was both fun and relaxing. It very close to Wimberly Square but still felt very private and secluded. We enjoyed the hot tub on the cool crisp evenings and relaxed in the rocking chairs on the porch during the day. My wife really enjoyrd it and didn't want to leave. The owners have really created something special. I cannot recommend this enough.

Perfect, romantic getaway cabin
Beautiful cabin, and grounds just as described. We had a wonderful weekend. The only thing I could have to say about this cabin is if you were planning to stay longer than a weekend, and like to unpack your suitcases, there is not a closet or dresser or anywhere to hang your clothes. Certainly not a dealbreaker though. Also, the neighbors dog was a little annoying with the barking, but it never seemed to last too long. We love the cabin, and will rent it again.
