Quiet country getaway

Took my aging MIL to this quiet getaway for some peace and quiet, and relaxing family time. Did a lot of porch sitting! Very comfortable house, everything we needed. Never even left the property! The grounds alone were a beautiful view.

Great Country Get-Away-Beautiful Setting!

We were a group of friends traveling to Round Top for some weekend shopping! The house was about a 40 minute drive to the Round Top Antiques Fair but it's a beautiful drive and the wild flowers were gorgeous! The house was perfect for our group! We loved sitting on the front porch drinking coffee in the morning and saw lots of baby deer playing in the field across the street. The house had everything we needed and we were welcomed with a nice bottle of wine and a note from the host. Communication with the host was easy and he was always very friendly! As we were leaving, one of our group couldn't find a couple rings that she had set somewhere. We let the host know and he messaged me a day later saying the cleaning crew had searched high and low for us and located the rings...amazing! Then he sent them back...so nice!! If you're looking for a beautiful country setting as a quiet family get away or for your Round Top home base...we highly recommend this home!

Wonderful weekend

The property was absolutely beautiful. Peaceful and quiet. The pond is beautiful and the fish were fun to watch come up and eat. The house was decorated to the T. It was spacious and the amenities were to perfection.

Quiet in the Country

This place met or exceeded all our expectations. Communications with the owner before and during the stay were great. Used the Kitchen, laundry, hot tub and fishing pond. All were very good. Close to both Sealy and Belleville with good food options and grocery stores. Restful sleep and near many places to visit. Would highly recommend. Thanks for a great week Tom.

Peaceful and Relaxing

Great house for relaxing, either in the house or in the hot tub. And my son loves fishing everyday!! House was clean and nicely decorated. Beside fishing there was other games and plenty to explore outside. The hot tub was wonderful to relax in at night. The beds were very comfy! Highly recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Thomas Odenwelder

Semi- retired living in Galveston. Purchased The Twisted Elm about 8 years ago as an escape to the country. What a gem that I enjoy visiting and continuously making improvements. Decided right before the first bout of Covid to convert to a vacation home that has really become very popular because of its close proximity to Houston. Folks have really enjoyed this place as much as I do.

Why they chose this property

Private, gated, large shade trees, pond, walking trails, wildlife, and very beautiful grounds. Comfortable home with superior furnishings.
When you drive through the gate and see the property you will truly be amazed at how beautiful it is... I fell in love with this place the first time I visited. When the sun begins to set the lightning bugs and other country creatures begin to wake up. Sitting on the back porch with a cup of coffee in the morning is a great start to a new day and adventure.

What makes this property unique

Very quiet, beautiful sunrise/sunset. Star gazing is fantastic especially while in the hot tub.
Fish? For a rookie or a pro you will enjoy the covered deck. Just walking the ground is truly amazing, come and see for yourself you will not be disappointed. Tom O
