Welcome to Vesper Lodge. Nestled in the rugged Texas land of Wimberley with the prettiest view. The lodge has been lovingly restored to be comfortably chic.

Spacious enough for a large group but charming for a writer's solitude.

The sunsets and night skies are what drew us here.

They bring pink-cotton-candy clouds. Then the sun crowns the valley hills in mauve until the stars begin to make themselves visible. Slowly, a few at a time, until the entire sky is covered in brilliant stardust.

The space
The Lodge is an ideal place to come for relaxation away from your normal busy everyday life. Let the views restore your soul.

Take time to detox as much as you want from devices to earth and forest bathe. (But not to worry, we have wifi and Netflix if you need to binge too :)

Ready for some real hill country experiences? S’mores and a fire under the stars in our certified Dark Skies community. Bring your bikes for a weekend of cycling. Hike the many local trails, or take a stroll in Wimberley Square for lunch and shopping. Schedule a wine tour at the local wineries for a day excursion. In warm temps, swimming and fishing are a refreshing treat in the local swimming holes.

Many of our guests, come and never leave too! Just enjoy being around nature - true peace and quiet!

Whether you're looking for an intimate retreat gathering, a nature-inspired girl's weekend, open Texas space for family adventuring, or picture-worthy moments to inspire your creative soul, you'll be sure to discover the simple, connective magic of the Wimberley Valley.

Guest access
You will have full access to the lodge and the surrounding property on which it sits.

Hang out in the evenings by the firepit for smores. Enjoy a meal al fresco on the back porch. Hike about the Vesper grounds and go for a morning stretch.

Where I went to school: University of Texas at Austin
Fun fact: I was a mariachi as a kid.
We're a homeschooling, ranching, entrepreneurial family of five — married 30 years, three kids, two Maine Coons and a forever-puppy labradoodle, Gracie. Home is a private family ranch in Wimberley; Vesper Lodge sits on a hilltop overlooking it. We run Simpler Trading, and John and I both write (I'm the author of Goodbye Today, A Simple Bedtime Ritual). My family ran a Mexican restaurant in Austin, and my mother Mary, your guest host, carries that hospitality on. Hosting here is a family affair.
