This time around Chad and I decided to stay at a hotel in town so we could take advantage of having a pool right outside. I searched for days trying to figure out the best place to stay for a decent rate and I happened upon the Lone Star Court. The pictures online looked great. The place looked to have a Texas charm while still being modern and trendy, so I decided to book it.
Little did I know this place would be one of the best hotels I’ve ever been to. The rooms were perfect. The décor was a retro Texas vibe with a full size SMEG fridge, a sliding barn door to the bathroom, colorful woven rugs and a retro couch that I wanted to pack up and take home.
The outdoor space was almost better than the room. A big grassy courtyard, which was perfect because we brought our dog! (Yes, they allow dogs, which makes this place even better). A beautiful stone swimming pool with the coziest lounge chairs. Multiple patios/decks with fire pits. The list goes on guys. The restaurant/ bar area, called The Water Trough, was a stunning wooden barn with amazing drinks, delicious free breakfast every morning (breakfast tacos because Austin, duh), and big garage doors that let in the fresh Texas air.
I would go back to The Lone Star Court tomorrow. And I would lay by the pool with my popsicle cocktail, and I would be happy. Just like I was last weekend, because this place was perfect. GO NOW!
