Custom Home Builder in Pipe Creek,Texas
Custom homes on Bandera County ranch acreage near Medina Lake — building since 1992.

Pipe Creek is Bandera County ranch country — a rural community on TX-16 between Boerne and the “Cowboy Capital” of Bandera, where spring-fed creeks, old-growth live oaks, and limestone hills make for some of the Hill Country’s most sought-after acreage, with Medina Lake just to the west. It’s exactly the kind of large, private land Mike Hollaway has built on for decades.
“We use a lot of our same subcontractors that we’ve used for years. I call on them and have them there with us and we can all come up with a game plan right away.”

Why build in Pipe Creek
People build in Pipe Creek for room and water — live-water creek frontage, big oaks, and undisturbed views within about 45 minutes of San Antonio and 20 of Boerne. These are acreage and ranch properties that reward careful siting and planning for wells, septic, and access, and we bring trusted trades and a clear plan to country builds like these from the first design conversation.
