Wondering where the name “Milk Bath Springs” comes from? This house is downstream from the original “dripping springs” (which the town is named after) and it flows into our very own historic “Milk Springs” where nearby settlers, in the 1800 and early 1900s would put their dairy items in the ice cold spring to keep them fresh. This spring box is located in a beautiful grotto located at the back of our property. You can see into the grotto from the yard!

Thinking about renting Milk Bath Springs House as well? A side patio features a pergola that sits over an outdoor dining area, where you can enjoy a meal in the wonderful Hill Country weather! Covered patio areas wrap around the sides of the house for guests to sip coffee and take in this beautiful property at Milk Bath Springs!

    Beautiful property. Very clean, everything you need for a short or long stay. Only have two small complaints....sooooo dark. Once the sun goes down, it is so dark there. I would highly suggest some solar motion lights. The second is the washer and dryer. There is NOT a washer and dryer in the small guest house...you have to walk through the backyard of the main house and do around the corner and up the stairs to use the washer and dryer. Oh and also....they need to put shades or curtains on all exterior doors.Other than those very small complaints, the place was perfect. The management team is awesome.

    Cool cottage with the stone walls. Clean and location was quiet. Small fenced yard nice for pet. No back yard light to let pet out in dark. Funny smell comes and goes outside only, not sure what it was. Overall good experience.

    This property is a small 2-bedroom guesthouse situated behind a larger 5-bedroom home (also for rent). It is advertised a a cottage, and comes complete with a fenced-in backyard (pets are welcome) and on-site laundry facility at the rear of the larger home. Vintage bathroom and kitchen appliances gave it a very cozy feel. Very nice accommodations. I will definitely stay here again!!
