Hill Country cabin on 260 acres

Ferruginous Pygmy (Fergy for short) is a tidy open concept single room cabin designed with custom "window walls" at entry and on the back balcony, allowing you to see completely through the cabin to the lovely hills beyond. When you stay at Fergy, you experience a beautiful balance of out and in. Enjoy the cozy and comfy interior and the expansive exterior that epitomizes the Texas Hill Country.

Wake up from a good night's sleep and slide the doors open to watch the sun rise with a warm cup of coffee on the back porch. Step off the shaded front porch around to the deck, which offers outdoor seating, grilling and dining. Adjacent the deck, find a treelined outdoor shower (with hot water) where you can wash off in the private wilderness. (There's really nothing else like it.) In the evening, enjoy a chat by the fireside, resting in style on a large Adirondack chair set in the open air for an expansive experience of the night sky. The stars out here are so bright and plentiful!

Kitchenette with 2-burner induction stovetop, microwave, small fridge, sink, dining ware, knives, cooking utensils, pots, pans, and flatware. Clean bedding on a fresh, firm mattress and new iron queen size bed - super comfy for a good night's sleep. 50 inch Samsung smart TV, with streaming platforms. Air conditioning and heating. Modern free standing roomy and luxurious tub, with high quality shampoo, conditioner and body wash. Tiny enclosed toilet for privacy.

This is truly a unique experience that offers all you really need in a getaway.

Exciting news! We have completed of our second cabin, fondly named “Barn,” which sleeps four and is close enough to book jointly with Fergy and far enough if you are staying solo. We intentionally spaced these two cabins to preserve privacy, yet lend reasonable proximity for those shared stays with friends or family. Please reach out to learn more about the second cabin.

The Fergy is as cool as asadvertised. Only 15 minutea to Leakey but you feel very secluded. The view of the Texas Hill country is world class. Loved the outdoor shower and the stargazing was excellent.

Everything was wonderful. It was clean, and quiet. We stayed two nights, stopping at HEB on the way. The cabin had just what we needed without being cluttered. We grilled and hung around the fire pit, watching the stars. Having a nice covered porch on both ends of the cabin worked out great with the change in wind/weather.The view is fantastic and so was the quiet, we ended up not leaving until checkout! It was just what we needed, the stay was so relaxing.

Best 4 days in the Hill Country! The little home has all you need. All utensils, glasses to eat/cook/drink with. Induction stove works great. Only a microwave/no oven. We cooked every night on outdoor propane grill. The fridge is slightly bigger than mini fridge w small freezer flap. No ice maker so pick some up in Leakey. The only sink in the house is kitchen sink. You have an inside bathtub w a shower attachment. However, we both used the outdoor shower in the mornings; awesome.The back deck off the house looks over the valley below! Great views! Bed was very comfortable. Mattress/ pillows are memory foam. The AC/Heat works well. The internet at the beginning was spotty, but after talking to Nathan we figured it out & worked well. The cozy fire pit area on side of house overlooks valley & makes for great morning sunrise w coffee. Fire pit itself puts out good heat. At night you can see the stars forever! Nathan was very responsive & polite. He told us about some hiking we could do. He suggested that we go down to the valley & walk that. I'm glad we did. There's no one around you except for The Barn, the other house Nathan rents. If somebody was there, you wouldn't know it.Keep in mind that there are cacti everywhere. So watch your furry friend, keep them on main trails. Other than that, it's extremely beautiful out here! We had a great time disconnecting & reconnecting w nature. We're certainly going to come again. Nathan has quite a paradise out here!
Great little house!

This place is awesome. My wife and I are avid science fans. She's a Biologist and I'm an avid amateur astronomer. This property was PERFECT for stargazing by night and animal spotting during the day. The unique microbiomes of the areas surrounding the property were so cool... you can really see how the ridgeline biomes differ from the biomes in the deep canyons winding down towards the Frio watershed.All of the appointments in the cabin worked as advertised. We brought a bluetooth speaker and watched scary movies at night. The bathtub was great as was the outdoor seating areas. My wife and I will definitely be staying again!

Everything was absolutely incredible! Talk about getting away from the city. We were so far removed that we could see ALL the stars. It was so nice to not hear traffic or other people. I think we only turned the TV on one time. We were just basking in the tranquility. They really had almost everything we needed already there. We brought food and drinks, and they had pretty much everything else. It was a great way to spend our 15th anniversary! Thanks to the hosts for doing such an amazing job. We will highly recommend it to others!
Dinner Friday night. Charcuterie and wine. Yes, I shared! :)

Wow! What an amazing location. A bit of a drive off the beaten path, so worth it. Peaceful and remote. It is truly in the hill country. It was the perfect spot to enjoy hiking in Garner and exploring. Close enough to Leakey to enjoy meals out. It was clean and well equipped!

Perfect stay

We wanted to disconnect from the world from a bit with out the lack of comfort of a modern home, and this place provided everything we needed and more. The venue was exactly as advertised. Incredibly peaceful and offered great sunrise views. The owner helped me so much and answered every single one of my questions and guided me to solutions; even late at night. Highly recommend.

Relaxing getaway

What a great escape from the city! We loved the beautiful sunsets, stargazing, and tranquil scenery. This was a great base of operations for day trips to Lost Maples and Garner, and a perfect way to enjoy nature without all the crowds at the end of the day (and with a luxurious bath to boot!). We would highly recommend!
