A Well-Read Austin Mansion With a Riveting Backstory

1 Min Read
SHARE
Lick-Creek-Lodge

The only thing that could make this super-stylish, culturally and architecturally significant house in Austin Hill Country any cooler is a compelling backstory. And when the cast of characters ranges from award-winning architect John Covert Watson to novelist/singer/satirist Kinky Friedman, you know you’re in for a riveting Texas tale.

The waterfront manse known as The Retreat at Lick Creek Lodge sits on roughly 30 acres in Spicewood, off the Pedernales River. Asking price for the 12,002-square-foot abode: $17.5 million. The seller, according to property records, is John H. McCall, the former owner of the beauty supply company Armstrong-McCall — yet another colorful figure in the property’s illustrious history.
