Looking for a quick romantic getaway in the Texas Hill Country? Well, you are in the right place! I live in the Texas Hill Country (near Lakeway City Park) where my husband and I like to get away for the weekend as often as we can. Here are the getaways I recommend, and I hope you’ll love them too.

Creekhaven Inn

Creekhaven Inn - A Hidden Grove in Wimberley, TX

Looking for a peaceful escape with your partner? Check out Creekhaven Inn (Google maps pin), a hidden gem situated along Cypress Creek in Wimberley, TX.

You can enjoy romantic accommodations, gardens, wooden bridges, and creekside paths. Waking up to sound of birdsong was outstanding.

Local tip: Ask for a romantic fireplace, whirlpool tub, and a private balcony for added romance.

What I loved best:

I think that Creekhaven Inn is one of the best weekend getaways in Texas. Why? First off, I thought the location couldn’t be better, just a short drive from Wimberley Square. In addition, we loved returning to our quiet oasis by the creek.

Explore thrilling zip lines or sleep in treehouses for an exciting overnight adventure.

Cypress Valley Treehouses - Sleeping in the Canopy in Spicewood, TX

Want so spend a romantic weekend in a treehouse? We discovered the most incredible hidden gem in the Hill Country.

At Cypress Valley Treehouses you can stay in a treehouse right above a spring-fed creek. Falling asleep to the sound of water flowing beneath us was pure magic.

During the day, you can enjoy swimming in the natural spring pool. Or if you are feeling adventurous, go zip-lining through the trees!
