Stone, wood, and steel construction make the farmhouse distinctly Texan: a strong and sturdy complement to the surrounding countryside.
Its'working days'' as a farmhouse are over, and now it's home to relaxing getaways for our valued guests!
Ceiling fans and central air and heat keep the gorgeous wood-highlighted interior comfortable no matter when you visit.
Take in the full majesty of the Hill Country from the elevated deck! At night, you'll enjoy stargazing at its best.
The gazebo is a perfectly-shaded gathering spot during the day, and the outdoor lights make it magical at night, too!

About this property

Old Fellow's Farmhouse

The Old Fellow's Farmhouse near Kerrville once played a role in the rich farming and ranching history of the Hill Country. It's been amazingly restored and renovated, while keeping its rustic country charm, including; new furniture, hi-tech amenities, new appliances and other added comforts for visitors to this beautiful region! The farmhouse sits handsomely on five scenic acres in the heart of the Hill Country and is loaded with comfortable and welcoming amenities. It's an amazing getaway!

You'll see you're in for something special as you approach the farmhouse, with its unique and striking barnboard-style construction and decorative filigreed woodwork circling the front porch. The mountain views from your rental cabin are beautiful, and lots of birds and wildlife call the area home. It's a treat for nature lovers, and with Kerrville 13 miles away, you'll have opportunities to spend time in town, too!

The shaded porch and gazebo are well-furnished, including a swing on the porch and ceiling fans for outdoor comfort, and they're adorned with strings of lights to add glittering magic to your nights here. An elevated deck off the upstairs bedroom offers even more stunning Hill Country views. Enjoy conversation, s'mores, and stargazing around the fire pit, with free firewood for the pit and the fireplace inside! Want a Texas-style cookout? There's a smoker and BBQ on hand, too!

Central air keeps this gorgeous Texas-themed guest home comfortable, and gorgeous woodwork gives the farmhouse a glow and personality all its own. Roku-ready TVs can be found in the downstairs media room and upstairs bedroom, with Wifi Internet service throughout.
