There is an old stone well filled by an aquifer (legend states the well was built by Ben McCullough; a Brigadier-General soldier in the Texas Revolution). A large back yard is used for walks, bonfires and golfing/batting balls. Lounge in the dappled sun on the patio near a running pond surrounded with gardens. Prepare a leisurely bar-b-que.

It is private-semi secluded- and very safe. Stars are dimmed from the Austin and nearby lights while cars and a train whistle can be heard. I am working towards a wildlife/native habitat refuge; with our neighbor, there is 18 acres (which contributes to the country feeling however 15 acres are not available to guests.). Under the cabin, on occasions, we are visited by a critter or two. This is a rare but does mutually surprise us all - after dusk of course.
