Sleeps 6, Covered Deck, Golf Cart The Cottage is charming and cozy, built in the1920's, completely renovated in 2020\. Decorated with a Texas-centric flair, it is comfortable with all essentials provided, as well as many "nice to have" items to add to your enjoyment of the Cottage and your experience of Smithville. Our favorite spaces are the Dining Room with its welcoming family-style dining atmosphere and the covered Back Deck which invites you to relax and lounge; enjoy a conversation; or choose to have a private moment, book in hand and wine glass at the ready. Steps away, you will find the Chamber of Commerce where you can get all sorts of flyers and guides to local attractions in Bastrop County and the Railroad Museum with pictures, memorabilia, and information about Smithville's history as a railroad town. Oh, and you can get your picture taken with Smitty, a full-size representation of what was for many years, the world's largest gingerbread man. After getting your favorite espresso drink at the General Store, you can explore the local galleries, vintage and antique stores, or follow the map to the locations where a variety of movies have been filmed locally, including "Hope Floats." Using the golf cart could be handy for your tour and, while you are at it, admire the lovely last-century architecture of the homes and other buildings of our small town -- surely one of the reasons it's been popular with the movie-makers. There are a number of parks just blocks away including a railroad park (of course!) with playground, a dog park, and the Veterans Memorial Park with an interactive water feature to cool off the young ones during the summer. You can walk a few blocks to eat at one of the restaurants downtown that offer a range of foods from brunch on the weekends, to pizza and barbecue, to finer dining options. And, you can always go next door to Huebel's Bier Garden, a local watering hole purported to be Willie Nelson's favorite Smithville bar, where you can enjoy a game of pool (it's still free!) and a beer and meet some of the locals who enjoy gathering there after their workday is over. We, your hosts, think of Smithville as a place to relax; a place to get away from the traffic and stress of what many of us experience in our busy daily lives. It's a place to get together with other family members, to arrange a friends' reunion, to celebrate a special occasion. We have done everything we can think of to provide an atmosphere that you can sink into, so sit back and unwind. Our town is indeed a friendly place. It takes its description as a Small Town with a Big Heart seriously. Take a stroll without a plan. Open yourselves to meeting new people and see what conversations you get into. For those who are looking for a bit more activity, you can go further afield. We are only 30 minutes from the Austin-Bergstrom Airport, we are right down the road from Circuit of the Americas, and we are only about 45 minutes from downtown Austin with all it has to offer. And, you will find that Smithville is a great "jumping off" point for further exploration of historic West Texas towns such as Bastrop (15 miles), LaGrange (28 miles) or Roundtop (35 miles). If you google "Explore Bastrop County," you will find all sorts of activities to choose from, and those are fun too. Whatever activities you choose for your day, you can then return to your "home away from home," watch the beautiful sunsets we are known for, and ... relax. Welcome and ... Cheers! ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Books - Games - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board - Limited housekeeping ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden - Recycling ## Similar properties ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/111000000/110730000/110721400/110721355/c97c9dc1.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Spacious country retreat with modern amenities KING SIZE BED & family friendly Bastrop - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Air-conditioning 8.8 Excellent 6 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-25&endDate=2026-02-26&selected=110721355&PinnedHotelID=110721355&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Microwave, oven, stovetop, dishwasher](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/118000000/117970000/117969800/117969716/7eeabe9e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Creative Oasis Near Austin — Full Recording Studio + 2 Indoor Tour Bus Bays Smithville - Washing machine - Dryer - Air-conditioning - Parking available £710 includes taxes & fees 22 Feb - 23 Feb [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-22&endDate=2026-02-23&selected=117969716&PinnedHotelID=117969716&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/100000000/99970000/99968700/99968634/w1016h683x4y0-ae6c9d53.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Gaviota Home in The Lost Pines Smithville - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Air-conditioning 8.4 Very good 16 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-25&endDate=2026-02-26&selected=99968634&PinnedHotelID=99968634&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/46000000/45690000/45688000/45687974/f9eca78a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Short cottage Downtown Smithville - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Pet-friendly 9.6 Exceptional 16 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-25&endDate=2026-02-26&selected=45687974&PinnedHotelID=45687974&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Living area](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/118000000/117420000/117411700/117411668/a66452e4.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Charming 2-bedroom apartment with AC, WiFi in wonderful Smithville Smithville - Washing machine - Dryer - Pet-friendly - Air-conditioning 10 Exceptional 1 review [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-25&endDate=2026-02-26&selected=117411668&PinnedHotelID=117411668&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/36000000/35900000/35898300/35898213/00c5d60e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Seclusion in the Lost Pines hosted by Jan Smithville - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Pet-friendly 9.8 Exceptional 83 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-25&endDate=2026-02-26&selected=35898213&PinnedHotelID=35898213&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/116000000/115110000/115104800/115104757/23618b7f.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Luxurious Stargazer Dome Retreat in Stunning Nature Smithville - Hot tub - Kitchen - Pet-friendly - Air-conditioning £381 includes taxes & fees 1 Mar - 2 Mar [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-01&endDate=2026-03-02&selected=115104757&PinnedHotelID=115104757&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![TV](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/97000000/96080000/96074600/96074528/fbee3d8a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Ramona House w/ Cowboy Pool!

Even with a brief power outage due to a strong storm. I share this because of how responsive our host was during this time. She reached out to the city for us regarding the estimated restoration time, which she did not have to do. The cottage was clean and every detail has been thought of. Sweet treats to greet us, and fresh flowers. I was hesitant due to the proximity of the bar, but it was not loud and no rowdy patrons. In fact we sat on the porch both nights and could barely hear the music. We will certainly be returning soon. ##### Sheri M.

It was perfect and even better in person. Everything was well equipped and location is spot on. Very convenient with a bar next door. Even though we had a little trouble checking in the host totally made up to us by dropping off a champagne bottle in celebration of my birthday and also offered breakfast for our group at Comfort Cafe even though i missed that email after the fact. We did go to Comfort Cafe and it was wonderful. We have a couple in our town and same concept. Great caause. We loved the cottage we stayed in. Bed were comfortable, had coffee accommodations, bathroom essentials were there if needed. Nicely decorated. We will definitely come back and stay here. Love this cotttage and love this little town.

We spent a mother/daughter weekend at Ruby's Foxcroft Cottage and had a great time in Smithville and the surrounding area. We loved the decor, the beds were comfortable, communication with the host was easy, the location was just a block away from the main street and a very easy walk, but what really set the cottage apart was the host's attention to detail. Things like extra charging cords, coffee & tea, fresh pastries, additional bathroom items, etc. showed the thoughtfulness of the hosts. I was concerned about the neighborhood bar being right next door, but it was not an issue. We sat on the porch and enjoyed the local live music being played on Sat night (there was hardly anyone even there on Fri). They stopped playing around 11 and had we decided to go to bed sooner, the bedrooms are located on the opposite side of the house & the walls well insulated, so don't let that discourage you from booking like it almost did me. We would have missed out on a great stay. Our expectations for future vrbos is set high after staying here. Thank you to the hosts for such a positive experience where many good memories were made! ##### Jennifer B.

Today, we are GRATEFUL for sisters. Our journey to Foxcroft Cottage-Smithville was made possible by sisters Rebecca and Marilyn. They represent true southern hospitality from a special place and conside uncommon today. Their sisterhood brought our Cottage to life. The sisters live in the intention as joy, laughter, and love brought those energies present when we entered the cottage. The essentials, snacks, and drinks added more comfort and convenience. Large rooms inspired stretching, relaxing, and more shopping bags! 🤓. Room design blend of comfort, technology, and warm decor, brought us easily together. The recessed kitchen/dining felt as our home base aligning with our East Texas traditions. This safe space to share and educate more family history and (usually funny) stories, is always priceless. The sisters standards and hospitality raised a bar on our future adventures, and inspired town outings. Outing memories included 2 Consuela store trips in less than 24 hours, great burgers, laughing w locals, and more hot spots. We toured the historic district, the iconic Hope Floats house, Victorian homes, majestic trees/wildflowers, widows walk, and each w special memories. Our final night was in the comfort of our Cottage, with a homemade meal, wine, and a refresher on the Hope Floats movie’s sentiments; now each of us w a deeper, newly connected meaning. Our heartfelt gratitude, we cherish our newest memories, and: Our cup runneth over. ❤️❤❤️ The Timeless Trio ##### Corey A.
