Who wants to get a little lost with the one you love?

We know, we know…a romantic getaway is far more about the person you’re with than where you are — but being in the right setting sure doesn’t hurt.

There’s something so appealing about the idea of escaping off with your partner to a cabin in the woods where you don’t have to think about work, chores, or any of the stresses of city living.

If you’re looking to book a memorable retreat with your loved one, then we have some suggestions for you. From quirky treehouses to stunning A-frames to unique tiny homes, these are some of the best romantic cabins in all of Texas.

1. Moondance Cabin

Why you should stay: Enjoy that log cabin life at this creekside retreat with a sauna.

  • Nearest town: Wimberley
  • Sleeps: 4
  • Minimum stay: 2 nights
  • Rates from: $345/night

One of two rentals in Abundance Retreat, Moondance Cabin is a log cabin that really leans into that charming, rustic vibe.

Inside, you can find pinewood walls, gorgeous furniture handmade by local artisans, and a wood-burning stove. Outside, there’s a deck where you and your sweetheart can get comfortable on the rocking chairs and take in views of the neighboring creek.

While the place can fit four people, it’s a particularly nice spot for a romantic getaway with additions like a big soaking tub and private sauna. If you’re feeling active, then head out on one of the trails in the nature preserve, but it’s okay if you just want to sit and listen to the birds too.

Adding to the good vibes are the many large windows which bring the sunlight in and let you gaze out into nature whether you’re laying in bed, sitting on the couch, or working at the writing desk. Another great spot to chill is the swinging bench in the screened-in back porch.

If you’re a fan of watching sunrises or sunsets, then there’s no better place to do it than from up on the roof deck where two chairs await. Really, the views there are fantastic any time of day since you can see far out into the Hill Country.
