Texas may not have the harshest winters in the world, but something about the gloominess of the season makes me want to do nothing but hibernate until spring rolls around. That being said, once the first signs of spring begin to emerge, I’m ready to make like a butterfly and escape. If you’re anything like me, you’ll love these seven best Airbnbs in Texas for spring. They all feature lots of outdoor amenities, so you can watch nature come back to life and soak up the vibrancy of this special time of year.
1. Leaf Treehouse at HoneyTree Farm, Fredericksburg
Conveniently located just minutes from Fredericksburg's vibrant Main Street scene, the whimsical Leaf Treehouse is the perfect springtime getaway. It's perched among majestic live oaks and features a king bed with organic cotton sheets, a well stocked kitchenette, a bathroom with a rain shower, and a padded reading nook. It also boasts an outdoor tub, so you can marvel at all the spring blooms while enjoying a relaxing soak. The treehouse is roughly 300 square feet and sleeps two guests.
Escape to the Big Thicket for the vacation of a lifetime at this lovely cabin nestled in the heart of the woods. The Naturalist Boudoir is located in an extremely private setting, so you can listen to the sounds of nature coming back to life after a long winter's rest. The hot tub and gorgeous stained glass windows really take this rental over the top.
It's easy to see why The Bloomhouse continues to be one of the most popular Airbnbs in Texas. Not just a place to stay but also a true work of art, this 1100-square-foot architectural masterpiece is as quirky as it is magical. There isn't a single straight line in the entire structure (minus the sliding doors), and it's this sense of wonderment and endless possibility that makes it ideal for spring.
If you're looking to spend some time on the water this spring, I know just the place. This beautiful Lakefront Guesthouse in The Woodlands features private access to the water, plus a gorgeous swimming pool, firepit, BBQ, and bicycles. While guests only have access to one room in the house, it's incredibly spacious (~1,000 square feet) and perfect for those who need a more affordable option.
Nothing says "spring" quite like a farm stay, and this gorgeous Waco getaway, the Magnolia Farmhouse, is situated on 4+ acres and boasts neighboring farm animals, all-natural products, and - of course - furnishings from the one and only Magnolia. The outdoor games and huge patio beckon guests to soak up the gorgeous spring weather and get back to nature.
Nestled in the heart of East Texas, this rustic Vineyard Hideaway has everything you need to escape reality and rejuvenate your spirit. With rocking chairs, a hammock, a firepit, a picnic, and a hot tub, it's the spring getaway of your dreams. What's more, the cabin is situated in a wildflower field that comes alive during the spring months, so you'll enjoy quite the show during your stay.
Last, but certainly not least, this Firefly A-frame cabin is an outdoor lover's paradise. It's just minutes from downtown Granbury but feels like an entirely different world thanks to the dense coverage of trees and waterfront location. Kayaks are provided so you can explore the canals and lake, and you'll only be about an hour from Dallas if you want to check out the annual Dallas Blooms festival at the Dallas Arboretum (which I highly recommend).
