The Rustic Anchor is a serene haven nestled between Houston, Round Top, and Austin. It offers a perfect escape for bass fishing enthusiasts and Antique enthusiasts seeking a peaceful retreat near the lake. Rustic Anchor offers a perfect blend of comfort and natural beauty. Surrounded by lush landscapes, guests can enjoy serene views and occasionally encounter local wildlife. From playful critters outside to unexpected visitors inside, the retreat is a haven for nature lovers. The property is diligently maintained, with regular pest control treatments applied after each stay to ensure a pleasant environment. While guests may occasionally spot remnants of these wildlife encounters, they are reminded of the unique charm and tranquility that this retreat provides.

Beautiful Wildlife

Jodi was amazing she made herself available and was accommodating to my families needs. The home was clean and the scenery was beautiful, you can tell it was well kept and full of love. If we are ever back in the area we know exactly where we will be staying.
