About this property

Bybee- Round Top Motel | IN TOWN | Fire Pit, Shopping, Wine!

The 1880's Bybee Cottage was purchased from the Bybee Foundation - an organization responsible for helping preserve German immigrant structures in Round Top. The cottage features a king bed, fully renovated bathroom with soaking tub/shower and preserved patina. The front porch includes a French bistro table and one of the best views in Round Top. Located in downtown Round Top and walking distance to some of our favorite local spots. Formerly part of Hotel Lulu.

Cute cabin

This is a well-maintained and comfortable cabin. There is one living space and a separate bathroom, both of which are rustic but very nice. There is central a/c in the unit as well as windows that open. There is a small television, as well as a well-stocked snack/drink station. The bed was comfortable. Very well-located, walking distance to central Round Top.

Round Top Getaway

A perfect stay for our romantic overnight. The Bybee was charming, impeccably maintained and showed attention to every detail from the fresh flowers, a hand-written welcome note, the water for the coffee maker, the snacks, the plush and ample towels to the sumptuous bedding and many other comfortable touches. The host made every touchpoint of our stay easy and enjoyable.
