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.

Good communication with host. Charming, cozy cabin, thoughtfully appointed and interesting. Linens were good. Bathtub and outdoor shower were wonderful. Bed was a little too soft for us, but we tend to like firmer mattresses. Perfect for a short getaway. We wish we could have stayed longer.

This cabin was AS pictured and MORE !! Property was gorgeous and clean! Bed so comfy it invited you back again and again.Deer came so close to the front of of the house in early evening and morning to graze you could sit at the kitchen table and enjoy a cup or coffee or a glass of wine and loose yourself in nature. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed, there was not a want or need for more.The hot tub was so relaxing we spent morning, noon and night sitting, listening to music and taking in the landscape. We will return for sure !!!!

This was definitely a picturesque cabin in the woods. Everything was beautiful, and we got lucky with the weather. From lounging in the hammock, warming up next to the fire pit on a chilly night, or gazing up at the stars in the hot tub, I would highly recommend this place if you're looking to get away for some R&R. Just sitting outside and enjoying the sights, sound, and feel of nature was refreshing. We were even able to bring our telescope and do some stargazing. Such a great spot with clear skys. Stock up the little fridge and you can even cook your own meals on the stove, with the oven, or even the grill outside. The options for having romantic meals are endless, with fair weather, eating outside for almost every meal definitely set the mood. Of course, the location is also great, just a short drive to Wimberly Town Square, with a plethora of great little shops and eateries. 11/10 would stay again

It was quiet and comfortable. Easy access from I35 or east of Wimberley. I would only suggest some comfy furniture on the back porch. Otherwise, it was a unique and lovely place to stay.

This cabin was the absolute perfect little spot to help celebrate our 2nd anniversary.. We loved having the quiet relaxing atmosphere with the perks of being close enough to town in case of needed supplies etc. definitely worth it and looking forward to a return visit.
