This tranquil retreat is located in Round Top, Texas, and consists of six cottages and vacation rentals scattered across a peaceful estate full of grassy yards, lovely gardens, walking areas, and majestic oak trees bursting with lush foliage. The site is just 0.3 miles from Henkel Square Market—a seven-acre shopping district where guests can stroll around elegantly landscaped grounds while browsing a variety of boutiques and art galleries housed in historical buildings that date back to the mid-1800s.

The bucolic landscape of the surrounding area consists of gentle rolling hills and flat fields dotted with oak trees and grazed by white-tailed deer. In the springtime, the fields become especially picturesque, as they blossom with bluebonnets, Indian paintbrush, Indian blanket, and black-eyed Susan wildflowers, speckling the countryside with countless flecks of blue, violet, red, and yellow in various vibrant hues.

About 145minutes to the south, guests will find Park Prairie Park on the northwest shores of Lake Fayette. The park is laced with biking and hiking trails, while the lake is full of largemouth bass, making it a popular destination among fishers. About 50 minutes to the north, guests will find Lake Somerville State Park and Trailway, which provides 13 miles of multi-use trails that connect the Birch Creek and the Nails Creek units of the Park, all of which are centered around the 11,456-acre lake from which it gets its name. Here, guests will find even more opportunities for outdoor recreation.

Although Round Top is a very small town (population 90 as of the most recent census) and the surrounding area is sparsely populated, they boast a surprising number of restaurants, art galleries, wineries, golf courses, museums, and antique stores. One of the attractions for which Round Top and the surrounding area is most well-known is the Round Top Antiques Show, which draws hundreds of antique dealers and thousands of visitors from around the world for a week or two in the spring and fall each year. A shorter show is also held in the winter.

Other attractions in Round Top include Moore's Fort, a dogtrot-style blockhouse that was built in 1823 by John Henry Moore, one of the first land grantees to settle in the part of Texas that belonged to Mexico at the time. Settlers used the blockhouse as a defensive fortification during Comanche raids.

The site is about an hour and 20 minutes from Austin, where guests will find the nearest international airport and numerous attractions, such as the Texas State Capitol, the Bullock Texas State History Museum, the Blanton Museum of Art, and a lively food and music scene.
