About this property

3 bed/3 bath ranch house on Round Top, TX, main square with large porch & views

Halfway between Houston and Austin, Texas, this 3 bedroom, 3 full bathroom cozy country home has been owned and maintained by the same family for over 20 years. It is in downtown Round Top, Texas, steps from the historic squares, lined with all of the shopping, restaurants, bars and hotels, that make this little country town famous. A short drive down the road will lead you to the main grounds of the world-renowned Round Top Antique Shows! A home away from home, it has all of the comforts you could want, including wifi and cable television, clean sheets and towels for guest use and washer/dryer. The favorite room is a large sunroom with couches and comfy chairs, perfect for a good nap or gathering with family or friends. There is a family room with a gas fireplace, smart TV and two large sofas, a dining room with a table that seats 6 comfortably. A house highlight is the large front porch with rocking chairs that has a lovely view of sunsets and a pasture where cattle and longhorn graze.

About the host

Hosted by Carrie Cowan Johnson

Host profile image
We are Houston-based family that has spent over 20 years visiting Round Top, Texas. We always knew it was a special place and seeing it became more and more popular has led us to want to share our home and town with others!

Why they chose this property

Tickletail Ranch House is located in "downtown" Round Top, down the street from the main square and walking distance from all of the shopping, eating and socializing that this sweet Texas town has to offer.

What makes this property unique

When we say that this home is downtown, WE MEAN IT! You will not find a house available to rent in a better location. Avoid the blank slates that most rental houses seem to be. Tickletail Ranch House is charming and has all of the cozy appeal of a Nancy Meyers movie set. This is a home, not a house, and you will feel that and never want to leave!
