The Amazing Driftwood and Kyle Dining Scene

Sage Hill Inn offers a serene and secluded retreat nestled between Kyle and Driftwood, just 30 minutes from downtown Austin. Perfect for a romantic escape or a girls’ weekend, it’s the ideal getaway to relax, recharge, and unwind from everyday life. Guests can arrive on the property and enjoy all the inn has to offer, whether the spacious pool area with sweeping Hill Country views, the pickleball pavilion, the hikes around the property, or the amazing farm-to-table meals fireside in the inn’s dining room.  But over the last several years, the Hill Country right around the inn has developed into a great restaurant scene, and guests can also choose to venture out to some of the vibrant hot spots in the area.

Whiskey Ridge: A New Local Favorite

Most recently, Austin restaurateurs Matt Dodson and Doug Young, owners of Cover 2 and Cover 3 in Austin, opened Whiskey Ridge, a five-minute drive from the Inn where Driftwood and Kyle meet. The restaurant’s executive chef, Steve Warner, comes from the Austin restaurant scene, including  ATX Cocina and Bulevar.  Whiskey Ridge has “elevated homestyle offerings”  complemented by its gorgeous open spaces, its vibrant bar, and its wrap-around porch, complete with fireplaces, cornhole, and panoramic Hill Country views.  Like the inn, the restaurant provides the perfect environment for a romantic dinner, a group gathering, or a girls’ night.
