Lovely rural farmhouse
Our stay at the Roost, a lovely renovated well-equipped farmhouse, was great. The setting was beautiful for those who want a county setting. Access to Schulenburg and nearby points of interest was easy.

A Boost from The Roost!
The Roost is situated on a hill behind a locked gate overlooking fields of lush foliage and farm animals. The large porches are the perfect place to unwind and enjoy the view. The inside is pristine and well stocked with everything you need for a relaxing or active vacation. The only negative might be the low water pressure as is common with farmhouses. It will definitely not be a deterrent for future visits as we plan to stay again and again! We loved every minute of our stay!

Girls' Weekend
For a girlfriends weekend trip, five of us came to Schulenburg to visit the Painted Churches. The house was perfect for us with easy access to downtown Schulenburg and surrounding areas. The back and front porches were very relaxing with the rockers and just being able to enjoy watching the cattle graze. The Painted Churches tour/guide (Dennis) was wonderful and very informative. The restaurants and shopping in the area are very good and fun. Schulenburg is a great small town and this house is a perfect place to relax and unwind. Thank you for everything!!

Lovely in the country
The setting was peaceful, great weather and fun to be outside on the porches. Would definitely recommend. A little pricey, but ok if sharing expenses with others. We loved the farm fresh eggs!

“The Roost”
Our stay at “The Roost” was absolutely phenomenal! We enjoyed going to the antique show in warrenton and spending way too much money. After, we enjoyed a nice bon fire with s’mores & games. We love the sunset here this is a nice piece of serenity! :)

Relaxing country weekend.
The property was super cute. Outside had a nice large well kept backyard with a fire pit, barbecue grill, picnic table and lots of toys (footballs and cornhole) for the kids. The front had a beautiful porch with swing and rocking chairs and a big parking area for multiple family vehicles in front that made access very easy. Inside was well appointed and super cozy but with enough space to separate kids from grown-ups during meals and downtime. Just a very relaxing weekend overall and a great place to stay. We intend to come back.

A Step Out of Time for a Family to Destress
We desperately needed a quick getaway to destress and recoup after spending weeks getting our house ready to sell. This was the perfect spot to take a weekend off while our house was being shown. The owner was very helpful and quick to respond to issues. The property itself is a beautifully restored farm house and the cows every morning were a delight, especially for our children. It felt like a step out of time and back in time to simpler days, with all the perks of modern life.

Ladies Getaway
This REAL farmhouse is so precious, kitchen and bathrooms stocked really well, comfortable beds, very nice bedding and plenty of fluffy white towels! A/C worked great! Indoor and outdoor games provided! We enjoyed sitting on the back porch watching the sunset with a glass of wine, and watching the cows! Loved reading about the history of the ranch and the family who originally settled there. Thanks for allowing us to use this beautiful place to make fabulous memories with great friends. Oh and thank you for the farm fresh eggs and bottle of wine!!

Mother-Daughter Weekend
My Daughter and I stayed at the Roost to do some shopping and relaxing and it was so nice. The weather was horrible but we still go out an did some shopping, it was always nice to get back to the Roost and just relax for the evening. The beds are awesome and everything was spotless. Would definitely recommend if you need a break from the city and just want to relax!

Wonderful Home
The Home was in the most peaceful country setting, decorated well in latest farmhouse style. Everything we needed for a fun weekend seeing blue bonnets, painted churches and other area sights. Extremely clean and well thought out. Our only hiccup was we did not receive gate code before we arrived around 5:00. But we were able to call number provided for guest service and a code was emailed right away. Would definitely return!

Peaceful retreat
Beautifully renovated farm house set in excellently maintained rural landscaping. Welcome respite from city life. In the mornings, enjoyed having coffee on back porch and watching fenced off cattle and birds. Property is immaculate. Communication with Sarah Kate and property owners was effortless and prompt. We were running from hurricane Laura and found a perfect haven for calming our frazzled nerves. Made a lot of memories in a charming setting with our daughter and grandchildren.
