Looking for a quick Texas Hill Country getaway with quiet mornings, bright stars, and a cozy modern space that feels more like a design-forward tiny home than a rustic cabin? Tucked away on a private lot just five minutes from Canyon Lake, this 487-square-foot A-frame cabin offers a peaceful retreat that’s close to nature—plus something you won’t find at most tiny homes: a private pickleball court.
Whether you’re visiting as a couple, a small family, or just passing through solo, this remodeled A-frame makes a great home base for weekend escapes from Austin or San Antonio—or even longer remote work stays near the water. (Scroll to the end for a full video tour of the cabin!)

A Modern A-Frame With Stylish Touches
Outside, the steep roofline and jet-black trim of this A-frame immediately catch your eye. But it’s the interior that feels like a hidden gem—thanks to a recent remodel that blends modern farmhouse style with industrial finishes and warm wood tones.
Comfort That Feels Like Home
Step inside and you’re greeted by a surprisingly spacious kitchen, fully equipped with modern appliances, cookware, and more than enough counter space for meal prep or serving snacks.
There’s even a washer and dryer tucked into the corner, making it easy to pack light—especially for families or longer stays.
Just off the kitchen is a small dining area where you can enjoy slow breakfasts, a board game night, or a quick bite before heading out to the lake.
A Cozy King Bedroom & Stylish Bathroom on the Main Floor
The downstairs bedroom features a king-size bed dressed in soft linens, along with a dedicated desk space for guests who need to catch up on work or journaling. It’s quiet, cozy, and filled with natural light during the day.
Across the hall, you’ll find a full bathroom with a tiled walk-in rain shower, stocked with fresh towels, shampoo, and body wash—just like a boutique hotel, only more private.
A Loft for Sleep & Play
Head upstairs and you’ll discover a versatile loft space that’s perfect for both sleeping and playing. A queen bed and two twin beds make it easy to host siblings, cousins, or a group of friends. One of the most unique features inside is the handcrafted wooden accent wall leading upstairs. The open layout makes the space feel larger than its square footage, with natural light pouring in from the tall windows.
And for younger guests (or kids at heart), there’s a cozy nook filled with bean bags and board games—a fun little hideaway where imaginations can run wild on rainy afternoons or quiet evenings in.
A Backyard Built for Connection
Outside, the property truly shines. There’s a fire pit surrounded by string lights, ideal for late-night conversation, marshmallow roasting, or simply soaking up the Hill Country stars. There's also corn hole & a small putting green in the backyard!
But the real surprise? Your own private pickleball court. Whether you’re seasoned players or just picking up a paddle for the first time, it’s a rare and fun perk that makes this cabin stand out. (Bring your own paddles or borrow from the hosts!)
A Peaceful, Design-Forward Stay in the Texas Hill Country
This Canyon Lake A-frame cabin is a great example of how tiny(ish) homes can be both functional and stylish. Whether you're looking for a weekend recharge or a longer lakeside stay with room to breathe, it's a well-kept, welcoming retreat that makes slowing down feel effortless.
