About this property
GROUP GETAWAY - 6 Bedroom, 4.5 Bath, 20 Acre Retreat
The property is located just outside of Smithville, TX and is just 35 miles east of Austin Bergstrom Airport. The house sits on 20 gorgeous green acres of pasture and trees, surrounded by forests, longhorns, and more.
Art meets nature at this unique 4000 square foot cozy farmhouse. The house itself is decorated with an eclectic mix of furniture and filled with original artwork from regional artists. With 6 bedrooms and 4.5 baths, the home comfortably sleeps 14. The kitchen is fully stocked and there is table seating for 4 in the kitchenette, 8 in the dining room, and 18 on the back patio. With a downstairs theatre living room and an upstairs media room, there are plenty of places to get comfortable and relax.
The home boasts 3 wrap around porches and a large back patio, perfect for watching the sunrise/sunset and the hundreds of birds, owls, and butterflies as they fly over the lush green pasture.
In the "Art Barn", large original art panels line the walls of this breezy space. Here you will find additional seating, the Duck Coop, & Art Studio (art and crafting supplies available upon request).
Beyond the home and the barn, you will find nature and more nature. The most remarkable part of the property are its trees. Pecan, Magnolia, Elm, and Oak to name a few. There are clean cut paths that wind through the fields taking you from tree to tree where you can sit and/or have a picnic. Make sure to spend some time with MAGIC TREE, the large Live Oak near the center of the property, also a perfect place for outdoor yoga (yoga mats provided upon request).
The sunrise and sunsets are magical. The stars are BIG and BRIGHT.
Local attractions include nearby towns, Smithville (3 miles) and Bastrop (6 miles). Smithville’s town motto is “Small Town, Big Heart,” and you feel it when you walk through the streets, eat in one of the many great restaurants, antique shop, and talk with the locals. Buescher State Park and Bastrop State Park are each within 15 minutes and contain many hike and bike trails. The Colorado River is 5 minutes away, perfect for kayaking. Austin is 35 miles away.
The house/property is ideal for family reunions, girls weekends, guys getaways, corporate retreats, yoga retreats, and artists getaways. While your reservation is limited to 14 guests, the owners do host events at the Farm and would be happy to talk to you about your next event.

Awesome house/property
Great house, the owners, Micheal/Leah had everything prepared when we arrived. We had 12 guys there for a golf tournament near by, Micheal even set up a small driving range for us off the back porch, a mini “Top Golf”. Beautiful property, especially at night with all the lights around the property.

WOW!!!!!!
WOW is all I can say. This property is absolutely mind blowing. My family spent Thanksgiving here and had the most amazing time. There was a ton of space in the house for us to spread out. So many bedrooms and bathrooms, two media rooms, and the house is decorated SO cool - artsy and posh. I took a ton of interior design pictures to copy later haha. The kitchen was plenty large for us to cook our feast and had everything we could have needed. The property is beautiful and has a ton of outdoor space. We sat on the back patio, had a fire in the fire pit, the kids ran around the huge yard. I just can't say enough great things about this property. I can't wait to come back and me and my friends are already planning girl's weekend!
