We’ve done it – survived the holidays, indulged in some [much-needed] downtime in January, and vowed to kick the 20s off right! What better way to welcome a new decade than resolving to nurture a little more quality time with the one you love? Cheers to that!

With Valentine’s Day less than a month away, there’s no time like the present! This year, ditch the standard roses and chocolate-covered strawberries. Instead, invest in an experience! Maybe one that takes you straight to the heart…of Texas!

Whether you’re looking for adventure, relaxation or romance – a Brownwood getaway is the perfect way to escape into each other. Excited to make some memories? Here’s what we think you’ll love in Brownwood! 

 

The Ultimate Tranquil Romantic Lodging 

 

Brownwood is home to one of the Hill Country’s most romantic B&Bs! At Star of Texas Bed & Breakfast, hostess Debbie Morelock welcomes you to the ultimate in tranquility with local wine and a warm smile.

 

 

Start your stay with a couples massage in the spa room promptly followed by a lazy afternoon spent nibbling on cheese, sipping local wine & just relaxing. Once evening rolls around, pop into town for a quick dinner and return to lounge fireside or stargaze in your private hot tub, soaking up the sounds of nature. Awake to a gourmet breakfast-served in bed! Want to really up the romance ante? Spring for a vow renewal or elopement package! 

 

The Couple that Plays Together, Stays Together

 

Not that we’ve got anything against lazy days and the pampered life, but sometimes a little adventure is our love language! If you like celebrating your love with adventure and exploration, The Hideout Resort Golf Club & Resort is your haven! Situated on lush grounds and the gentle shores of Lake Brownwood, there’s a ton of fun to get into here.  

 

 

Catch some rays by the pool, play a round of golf on the championship course, hit the resort’s walking trails, or hook a sunfish or two at nearby Lake Brownwood State Park. Carve out some time in your adventuring to pop a bottle of bubbles and take in Brownwood’s finest sunset. After, feast on wood-fired steak and delectable home-grown veggies. Order a nightcap and head over to the bonfires before you settle into your cozy cabins. 

P.S. If you can’t stash the kiddos at the grandparents overnight, no worries – the resort is great for families! 

 

Outdoor Lovers

 

Who has two thumbs and loves a great camping trip? Outdoor-loving lovers! If you fancy a great glamping weekend to escape the city bustle, follow us to Lake Brownwood State Park! The beautiful park lies on the shores of Lake Brownwood and offers hiking, biking, swimming and water sports, fishing and geocaching! Cook your own feast by fire at night, swing in a hammock for a few hours and wake with the birds chirping!

Exploring Town 

 

What should y’all do in the hours not spent recharging and relaxing? Explore! Spend an afternoon out at the wonderful Spirit of Texas Winery tasting award-winning wines or throw a couple of cold ones back at Pioneer Tap House or Brownwood’s own craft brewery, Teddy’s Brewhaus. Indulge in delicious local eateries all over town – you’d be surprised how many hidden gems we have to offer! Stroll through parks, play tennis or volleyball, catch a play at the beautiful Lyric Theatre, or grab some gelato and stroll through downtown!
