The rain brought beautiful weather and even more beautiful grounds. Hope the weather gets nice for fall festival too!

It’s that time again, Round Top Antique fest is here from 3/21-4/6. For more information, please visit the excellent Round Top Commerce page, see below http://www.roundtop.org/antique_show_info.php Please be sure to bring your cameras. We have been catching a few glimpse of Indian Brush already this year. Given the rainfall this winter, we should have pretty decent blue bonnets showing too.

First week is free shows bananza. Just came back from Blue Hills and Arbor, two of our favorite venues. We met some of the dealers staying in our cabins and got lots of furnishing, color scheme, and recent trend ideas for our own house back home in Houston. We also heard Ang Lee (Academy movie direcotr of Life of Pi and Crouching Tiger Hidden Drago) will be the sole honorary VIP preview at Marburger Show, before general crowds set in. Lots of great items to see and educate your family. You will not be able to go through even 1/4th of the show in 3 days. Come on down now…

Just got back from our cabins. Everything is looking great! We stopped by Royer’s to pay Bud a visit at his café. The tents are ready for the Fall season shows, and the town sure is getting busier. Back at the cabins, the owner put in energy efficient heat pump ACs and LED flat screens in couple of the cabins. And the main log cabin is looking as nice as ever with those new modern tiled shower with frameless glass door. As this is the first time that Rocking Horse Retreat comes back from a long hiatus, we want to be sure our guests will enjoy their stay with us…

Our four cabins are almost all gone. We have vacancy in Main Log Cabin for the first weekend of Fall Antique Fair and Kalina’s Kottage for Friday and Saturday night of the second weekend. You are not going to be able find that much space and amenities for anywhere near this price around here. Reserve now and tell your friends about us. Or keep it a secret and just keep coming back!

So glad the project is almost done. Our first guest will be in for a pleasant delight with newly painted room, beds, soft water, direct TV and internet. We will upload some initial pictures soon!

Working on adding shower to our signature log cabin. Just picked out the tiles from Brenham with Mom. The tile contractors will be coming August 5th the Monday. I cannot wait. It’s going to be so nice!!!!
