About this space
Offered by sisters Rebecca and Marilyn, Jewell’s is a charming two-bedroom cottage completely renovated in 2020. Decorated with a nod to its Texas roots, it has an eclectic vibe. It provides all the essentials including high-speed internet, one covered parking space (plus two uncovered), and a well-appointed kitchen. You will find many non-essential items are included which will add to your enjoyment of the Cottage.
The two bedrooms are roomy and comfortable (the master bedroom has a Tempurpedic mattress). Located one block from downtown (shopping and restaurants) and 5 local parks including Veterans Park (splashpads), Bark Park, and Skate Park (bring your board). It is just 45 minutes from Austin, and an easy drive to other, Hill Texas communities including Round Top, La Grange, Bastrop and Buescher State Parks.
Our favorite spaces are the eat-in kitchen with its welcoming family-style dining island; the detached deck in the fenced-in back yard that invites you to relax and lounge, with or without a canine friend; and a covered front porch with two rocking chairs as well as a picnic table and benches, ideal for enjoying a conversation or choosing to have a private moment, book in hand and wine glass at the ready while enjoying a lovely sunset.
Downtown is only two blocks away and you can easily walk, enjoying our small-town ambiance with all it has to offer.
Other things to note
Smithville is a lovely place to visit with the intention of relaxing and enjoying the sorts of activities one might expect to find in a small town. Check out the SmithvilIe Chamber of Commerce website and, if you want to explore a little further afield, the "Explore Bastrop County" magazine and the associated website are excellent resources for other nearby possibilities. Smithville is convenient to numerous Hill Country festivals as well as the Circuit of the Americas with all their exciting events, not to mention all the entertainment available in Austin.
Do keep in mind that if you are looking for a comfy location with room for a gathering of family and friends, Ruby's Foxcroft Cottage (listed separately) is located right next door. The two cottages together provide an excellent combination of space and amenities, just coordinate the two calendars. If you'd like any help with doing this, message the hosts. We'd be happy to help.
Located in Smithville, this vacation home is in the city center. ColoVista Golf Club and Lost Pines Golf Club are worth checking out if an activity is on the agenda, while those looking for area attractions can visit Sherwood Forest Faire and Leesure Lanes. Looking to enjoy an event or a game while in town? See what's going on at Cotton Bowl Speedway, or consider a night out at Lumberyard Music Hall. Discover the area's water adventures with kayaking nearby, or enjoy the great outdoors with hiking/biking trails and cycling.
