What to do on the Ranch?

If you are into exploring, bring your boots or sturdy walking shoes, your rugged jeans and shirts. The interesting terrain is a bit hilly, has a wet/dry creek to cross, and has a crater formed by errosion over the years. The cattle are curious animals, but usually keep their distance. Sometimes our guests feel more secure if they carry one of our walking sticks.

Or, do nothing but hang out, if you'd rather. When the weather is pleasant, there's nothing more relaxing than taking a nap or reading a good book in the hammock under the Sycamore tree.

We invite you to sample some of the plentiful, sweet, juicy fruit of our two peach trees that ripen around April.

A Moonlight Event:

Many of our guests enjoy sitting around an evening cowboy campfire, toasting marshmallows and eating S'mores. The cry of the Coyotes during the full moon and the croaking sounds of the frogs down at the creek will amuse you. And surely you will delight in spotting the Big Dipper among the blanket of stars throughout our clear Texas sky.

Places to Visit

Big Tin Flag Bed & Breakfast is surrounded by six Czech or German churches that are hundreds of years old and feature beautifully hand-painted walls and ceilings. Our area also has the historical Kreische Brewery, which is located on Monument Hill and Brewery State Park.

Of particular interest is the new Czech Center, which features the largest Czechoslavakia-import, crystal chandelier, in the U.S. You will get a glimpse of what pioneer life was like in La Grange, by viewing several Circa 1800 homes relocated to the site, which have been furnished in the original style of their day, with old photos of the large families who built and occupied the homes. To view the homes only your donation is suggested.

An old stone building just off downtown's square, once the Jail House, is now the home of the La Grange Chamber of Commerce. Visitors are welcome to come and look at the one of the cells as it was back in the day.

These are just some of the sights that bring a sense of history to the area. Other interesting attractions include the expansive fields of Bluebonnet and red-orange Indian Paintbrush flowers that are in full, glorious bloom around the end of March. From our property, you can have all the Dewberries you can pick around Mother's Day.
