Area Attractions

 

A city of beautiful old neighborhoods with tree-lined streets, the Smithville area offers everything from recreation to relaxation, to shopping and sightseeing. Along Main Street, many old businesses, buildings and homes have been restored to their original appearance. The B&B is located only one block from Smithville's Historic Main Street.

You'll enjoy exploring the antique and craft shops both in town and in other nearby towns of the countryside. Local restaurants provide Mexican and Texas country-style dining. Play golf in nearby towns of Bastrop and LaGrange, or take on the challenging Pine Forest Golf Club or Colovista.  Enjoy a leisurely bicycle ride (bring yours or take ours) along  the city's shaded streets.

Our complimentary map of Smithville provides easy directions for a walking or biking tour, complete with historical information about the town and Bastrop County. The Colorado River, Lake Bastrop and two state parks (Bastrop and Buescher) are located just minutes away from Smithville and offer several additional recreational activities such as boating, swimming and hiking.

For a greater variety of dining and entertainment, Austin is less than an hour away from Smithville. The Hill Country Flyer, Austin's scenic excursion steam train, departs from Cedar Park, only 75 minutes by car from Smithville.
