Texas Country Retreat, 45 Min to Round Top, Sleeps 10, Barn & Fire Pit

Escape to the country on two fenced acres outside Weimar, about halfway between Houston, San Antonio and Austin. Round Top and Warrenton are roughly 45 minutes north, which makes this an easy base for the spring and fall antique shows.

Four bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and room for ten. Much of the living happens outside: a large covered patio with outdoor dining and a fireplace, a fire pit, a BBQ grill, and a separate entertainment barn for long evenings with family and friends.

Sleeping arrangements for up to 10 guests: Bedroom 1 has a king bed and a twin bunk bed. Bedroom 2 has a king bed. Bedrooms 3 and 4 each have a queen bed. There are two full bathrooms. Bedroom 2 also has a small double sofa bed, which we do not count toward the 10.

The property is fully fenced, with a covered patio, outdoor dining, fireplace, fire pit, BBQ grill, and the entertainment barn. Free parking on site under a covered carport and along a long driveway, with plenty of room for several vehicles.

The home has central heating and air conditioning, a full kitchen with dishwasher, washer and dryer, wifi, and a TV. Linens, towels, and basics are provided.

Two dogs or cats are welcome, up to 50 lbs each.
