About this property

Boutique Farm Stay — Thoughtfully Designed

  • Set on 172 acres of working farmland along a mile of the San Gabriel River, Scurlock Farms is a peaceful Texas Hill Country retreat rooted in history and care. Surrounded by centuries-old live oaks, our homes are built from hand-collected river rock and filled with the artistic legacy of C. P. Montague, a renowned Texas landscape artist.

    Here, guests slow down, reconnect, and experience life on a living farm—whether through quiet mornings on the patios, creative inspiration, or hands-on moments with animals and gardens. Just minutes from Georgetown yet worlds away, Scurlock Farms offers a one-of-a-kind stay shaped by nature, creativity, and family hospitality.

A Memorable Experience

Note: I actually believed I posted this eight months ago but I guess because there was a glitch it didn't go through.I stayed here with my husband and kids and we had the best time! Not only was the rental clean, comfortable, and well maintained but the location was just gorgeous. We got a lovely tour of the property and saw the most gorgeous view of the cliffside and river. Our kids loved relaxing on the hammock outside and meeting and feeding the cows and.goats. We had a blast and hope to stay again! Highly recommended

Beautiful Property & Fantastic Host

Beautiful property set back away from the city. Close enough to enjoy what Austin and the surrounding areas offer, but far enough away that is peaceful and quite. Very comfortable & cozy home that has everything you need. We were greeted by several deer in or around the yard every morning when we woke and the evenings when we returned. Property has a lot to offer if you just want to stay for the day and relax. Host is amazing and when the previous reviews say that her offering of fresh baked from scratch and served warm muffins are fantastic, they aren't kidding. They were AWESOME. Great host. Great property. We hope to return again soon!

Best stay in Texas

We absolutely loved staying here. Original plans were several family members (6of us total) but our trip fell apart so it was only my boyfriend and I, and I’m so glad we still decided to go (it was past the point of a refund so we figured might as well have a vacation anyway!). So much space, even with 6 of us it would have been very comfortable. Quiet rural area but so close to town so we could drive into Georgetown easily for dinners, etc. Loved the full kitchen as we were also able to cook meals! Very handy since stayed a whole week. The property grounds are great, we loved the various sitting areas out back and there is a trail through the trees that leads to the pecan orchard, go through that and you get to the river which was also fun to walk along. Sheron was a wonderful host, we loved the homemade muffins, and had the pleasure of getting a property tour from her as well where we got meet some of the farm animals. She was super accommodating when we had to change our original reservation too. The place really felt like home while we were there, and we’d definitely stay again!

Our kids loved "the farmhouse" so much we visited for a second time after a year. We played in the river, and Ms Sharon even provided us some tubes! On top of that, she dropped off some delicious muffins as well. It's the perfect family Farmcation!

peaceful retreat with beautiful view

My family (six of us) enjoyed our stay at Rocky Overlook. It is a beautiful home with an interesting story, just the kind of place my family loves to find. It is not far from the busy I 35 corridor, so it is easy to access Georgetown, Round Rock and Austin, yet it is in a peaceful location away from the crowd. It is spacious and clean, and the owners are so hospitable. We would definitely stay here again!

Great place to stay and play.

My family and I stayed at the overlook property for 4nights. It was a great place. The layout of the house is unique and the one shower took some planning to ensure we all showers, but over all the stay was great. Sharon’s tour and muffins made us feel very welcome. The “free reign” of the property was the highlight for us. We went to the river and spent the day.

My expectations were exceeded. The delivery of freshly made muffins, a hayride, feeding goats and chickens. Being able to pick vine-ripened tomatoes and having a fully stocked kitchen. Topping it off with breathtaking sunsets. There were so many unexpended pleasantries, we can’t wait to go back.
