Cedar Break at Howard Ranch · Hospitality Property For Sale · 30 Rooms

Cedar Break at Howard Ranch is a one-of-a-kind hospitality property located where Dripping Springs meets Driftwood, just 25 miles west of Austin in the heart of the Texas Hill Country. Situated on more than 13 acres within the charming Howard Ranch community, the property enjoys prime frontage just off RM 150 and RM 12, minutes from Highway 290, and surrounded by some of the area’s most popular attractions, including Twisted X Brewery, and the Marketplace at Howard Ranch. Opened in May 2023, Cedar Break offers a diverse collection of accommodations, venues, and amenities designed to capture the growing Hill Country tourism market. Guests arrive through The Ranger Station, a welcoming office and check-in casita, before exploring the StarDust Airstream Resort, which features 16 fully equipped trailer and camper pads. Five of these sites are already outfitted with three new luxury Airstreams, a fully restored vintage Airstream, and a vintage Spartan Camper available for nightly rentals, while the remaining pads are available for additional guest stays or long-term rentals. Beyond the Airstream resort, Cedar Break Lodging offers fifteen 600-square-foot row homes, each with a full kitchen, living area, bedroom, bath, and loft. Several of these “Family Cabins” feature twin beds in the loft, while others can be customized to accommodate offices or guest sleeping areas. The property is equally well-suited for hosting events of all sizes, from weddings and reunions to corporate retreats and live music gatherings. The Tobacco Barn serves as both the hotel lobby and a rustic indoor venue, while the spacious Pole Barn offers a covered outdoor space ideal for large gatherings. The Oak Grove provides an intimate outdoor setting beneath mature oak trees draped in string lights, creating a truly magical atmosphere. Additional features include the General Store, which offers Cedar Break merchandise along with food and beverage service, and the Marketplace at Howard Ranch, which provides an open-air market for over 40 vendors, further enhancing the destination’s appeal. A fully permitted 1.5-acre restaurant site is also ready for development, offering an excellent opportunity for a future on-site dining experience. Since its launch, Cedar Break has been steadily building momentum through branding campaigns, a growing referral network, and positive guest experiences, resulting in increased room and event bookings. With its unique combination of lodging, event spaces, and development potential, all set within a master-planned community that celebrates Hill Country charm, Cedar Break at Howard Ranch is more than just a hospitality property—it is a destination poised for exceptional growth.
