6-Acre Retreat: 2 Houses, Party Barn, Pool, & Spa

36 Oaks Retreat is conveniently located in Alleyton/Columbus - conveniently located between San Antonio, Austin, College Station, and Houston. The 6-acre property is unassuming as you turn onto the dirt driveway from the IH-10 access road. The beauty quickly unfolds as you begin to see the sprawling 200 year old Live Oaks, the charming guest cabin, newly remodeled ranch-style house, and pool area. Check out the historic Columbus area and enjoy the activities on site.

Main House: Enter through the gorgeous sunroom and catch the vibe of this country yet modern southwestern-inspired home with 3 bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms.

Guest Cabin: Country, quaint, and full of character with real barn doors separating the living area from the bedroom.

Pool Area: Massive pool (4'-10' deep), hot tub, outdoor kitchen with large gas grill, small charcoal grill, bar, pergola, fire pits, and plenty of places to lounge.

Play Barn: Complete with ping pong, darts, cornhole, and hook & ring. Volleyball and tether ball are setup outside of the barn. Newly built 2-stall bathroom.

Live Oaks: Sprawling live oak trees, estimated to be over 200 years old are all over the property but concentrated in the back. Catch the breeze and some shade under the Oaks during the day, and continue enjoying the view at night once they light up.

Stage Barn (separate rental): Host your special event and party like rockstars on the 2-level stage. PA system and lighting are provided and the audience can enjoy the entertainment from the handcrafted whiskey barrel table sets.

36 Oaks Retreat Wedding
WOW!!! We cannot say enough about 36 Oak Retreat, owners and staff. Absolutely amazing! We were able to plan a wedding here sight unseen from Colorado and it did not disappoint! Elicia and Ryan could not have made our special day any easier for us. The property really speaks for itself! Gorgeous! It was the perfect back yard wedding and barn reception and everything we dreamed it would be. It has literally everything you need, and it is a perfect place for weddings, families and kids. You stole our hearts with this little retreat. Thank You Thank You Thank You. We will be returning. ❤️ 🌳💍❤️

Wonderful Family-Friendly Getaway
Elicia was great - she checked in on us multiple times to ensure our stay was enjoyable and we had everything we needed. The property is beautiful! Only a 45-minute drive from Cypress (which is great for two toddlers) and has lots to do, including swimming, fishing, games, etc., for the adults and kiddos. We enjoyed our stay very much and will definitely keep in mind for future getaways.

Gorgeous Ranch
The property is so peaceful and extremely well stocked! We had our children and friends stay with us and it was plenty spacious with something for everyone to do. The fire pit at night was fun for the kiddos who wanted s’mores. All in all it was a great family vacation because of the place. Highly recommend!

spacious home, large island in the kitchen. Outside Kitchen area is nice but could use some cleaning. The trees are Beautiful, pool is wonderful. We brought our own umbrella's for outside by the pool since we didn't see any in the picture and glad we did. There is no shade near the shallow area. It is a wonderful place to stay and sure wish it was a bit closer for us. :) You will enjoy your time here.

Amazing choice for spring break!
Stayed here for a spring break trip with 10 college friends; the property is amazing and absolutely perfect for a chill trip to relax with your friends. The wifi was not great at times, which made watching movies a bit more difficult, but overall an 11/10 experience!

My husband and I got merry here on 9/10. Our guests had plenty of room to spread out and we used the guest house as our honeymoon suite. Over all we had a blast and can’t wait to stay at this property again.

Awesome property!
Great place to relax and get away! The property was nice and big so you don’t have to worry about being quiet at a certain time which is nice. Would definitely recommend staying here if you have a large group of people. The owners are also very nice and make the process very easy and are very accommodating!

Amazing delight!
We chose this VRBO due to the accommodations it offered for our family that was traveling to Schulenberg for our son’s wedding. The house, property and host exceeded our hopes and expectations from the spacious kitchen and bedrooms and the refreshing pool to the accommodating and promptness of Elicia that took care of a problem that arose during our stay. Things happen and you can’t plan for everything but she was amazing in making sure that the issue was taken care of right away. You can’t ask for more!!

Perfect family retreat
This property was a wonderful place to spend a few nights with family. Plenty of room indoors and out and perfect style interior to make it feel like home. The pool was perfect for this summer heat and the games in the game barn was great to hang out and have some family fun. Rooms are spacious and clean. Kitchen had all the tools we needed except for a blender. At least we couldn’t find one. The guest house was a great place for those who want to take a break from the noise. Overall I would highly recommend this place for family trips but I’m sure would be perfect for a friends trip as well!

Great getaway spot for a short vacation!
Our family stayed for 4 nights with close friends. We had a great time swimming and lounging around the pool. The kitchen had everything we need, the beds were comfortable, and the kids loved staying "by themselves" in the smaller house. Elica was a great host and responsive to our questions. We look forward to coming back here again in the future!

4th of July fun
The property is perfect for family gatherings. We had plenty of room to spread out. The kitchen was great and was the hub during breakfast. We were able to grill one night with provided gas grill outside. We hung out at the pool each evening after playing games in the game barn. All enjoyed the game barn with restrooms! We had rain 2 days and played games and put together a puzzle. During the rain we were able to sign into to our streaming accounts for the kids! Sunroom gives another place to hang out and I read one afternoon in hanging chairs while kids napped. The guys fished a few times in the pond. All in all a great weekend for family time. Would be great for a reception or family event with the extra barn that we did not use or need. The trees are beautiful and we started gazed at night! Highly recommend for families!
