About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Boutique Farm Stay — Thoughtfully Designed

We offer a boutique farm stay, not boutique in a “fancy” sense, but in the way that truly matters: personal, intentional, and quality-centered.

Scurlock Farms is family-owned and operated. Hosting is not a side project — it is what we do, and we take great pride in every detail of your stay. Many of our guests return year after year, which we consider the highest compliment.

Whether you’re here for a romantic getaway, a creative retreat, a family vacation, or time to reset and breathe, our hope is simple: that you feel welcomed, cared for, and connected while you’re here.
Come Experience Scurlock Farms

Ditch the city life and step into the serenity of the Texas countryside. Explore a living museum, experience a working farm, and enjoy a place where history, nature, and hospitality meet.

We would be honored to welcome you.

Our kids loved "the farmhouse" so much we visited for a second time after a year. We played in the river, and Ms Sharon even provided us some tubes! On top of that, she dropped off some delicious muffins as well. It's the perfect family Farmcation!

unique property, lovely hospitality

A working farm with a spring creek and a short hike to a lovely river. The owner, Sheron, was a delightful hostess giving us tours of the (extensive!) property, bringing us fresh-from-her-oven muffins, etc.

Family Reunion in the Hill Country

Rocky Overlook provided a wonderful setting for our family reunion in the Hill Country. The house was beautifully decorated and the beds were very comfortable. Sheron was a pleasure to work with to arrange our stay. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip. I would highly recommend this property.

Loved Scurlock Farms

We had a wonderful week at Scurlock Farms. Sheron is the greatest hostess, from the tour, to the muffins, and the great accommodations, it exceeded all of our expectations. We loved the daily hikes down to the river and the bird-watching. Highly recommend staying here.

peaceful retreat with beautiful view

My family (six of us) enjoyed our stay at Rocky Overlook. It is a beautiful home with an interesting story, just the kind of place my family loves to find. It is not far from the busy I 35 corridor, so it is easy to access Georgetown, Round Rock and Austin, yet it is in a peaceful location away from the crowd. It is spacious and clean, and the owners are so hospitable. We would definitely stay here again!

Great Family Gathering Place

We had a great family gathering ranging in age from 88 to 1 years! It worked well for all ages, plenty of room and lots of opportunities for activities. Property owners provided gracious welcome and hospitality. The history and beautiful artwork added to the overall beautiful setting. We look forward to returning!

We fell in love with Rocky Overlook the moment we drove onto the property. As my son and I said we found our "zen" staying here. Just what the three of us needed. Sheron and family are the best host!

so quiet and peaceful!

Very serene location-just a quick 10 minute drive to Southwestern University. Love the history of the home! The owner made us delicious homemade muffins with their fresh eggs upon our arrival- my son said they were the best he'd ever had! Nice and clean and comfortable. I highly recommend for a relaxing getaway!

Great place to stay and play.

My family and I stayed at the overlook property for 4nights. It was a great place. The layout of the house is unique and the one shower took some planning to ensure we all showers, but over all the stay was great. Sharon’s tour and muffins made us feel very welcome. The “free reign” of the property was the highlight for us. We went to the river and spent the day.

A Memorable Experience

Note: I actually believed I posted this eight months ago but I guess because there was a glitch it didn't go through.I stayed here with my husband and kids and we had the best time! Not only was the rental clean, comfortable, and well maintained but the location was just gorgeous. We got a lovely tour of the property and saw the most gorgeous view of the cliffside and river. Our kids loved relaxing on the hammock outside and meeting and feeding the cows and.goats. We had a blast and hope to stay again! Highly recommended

This place was perfect!

My expectations were exceeded. The delivery of freshly made muffins, a hayride, feeding goats and chickens. Being able to pick vine-ripened tomatoes and having a fully stocked kitchen. Topping it off with breathtaking sunsets. There were so many unexpended pleasantries, we can’t wait to go back.

Was a terrific place to have thanksgiving. IN the country and very peaceful. House was large and perfect for a few days of R&R. Husband caught 50 fish in the river, a short walk from house. The guest bed needs replacing--- but that's it!!! Will stay again!

Great Getaway Near Austin but "Worlds Apart"

We had the privilege of staying here for our daughter's graduation from Southwestern in Georgetown.We entertained a large group & there was space for all. Beautiful retreat with amazing patio complete with waterfall & firepit....large kitchen, well-equipped. Short walk to the river~ Sheron's home-made muffins are to die for...secret...ask for the almond poppyseed! We hope to have the opportunity for a re-visit soon!

Georgetown Get Away

The property is very scenic and relaxing. Access to the river was easy and rewarding even though the water level was low due to the drought. The house is very well kept and well stocked. We enjoyed the wild bird variety and the deer. Sheron Scurlock took us on a tour of the property and gave some history which made us love it even more. Access to Georgetown and Round Rock was easy and fun. We would stay there again.
