the Katy House
BED & BREAKFAST
“The perfect real-life Hallmark bed and breakfast in a quaint little Texas town tucked away among the pines.”
Rich History
This Texas historic landmark was built by J.H. Chancellor, owner of the local mercantile store in the early 1900’s. Mr. Chancellor is remembered for his devotion to good service and as a generous businessman who frequently gave to those in need.
By 1941, 201 Ramona was purchased by Dr. Stephens, Division Surgeon for the MKT Railroad, where the home served as both his residence and doctor’s office. The downstairs’ stunning longleaf pine pocket doors separated the waiting area and patient rooms while the 2nd floor was his private living quarters. Babies were born and the sick were cared for. Former patients of Dr. Stephen's are known to stop by from time to time, just to say hello.
Continuing with the commitment to service that has braced the home since the founders of The Katy House Bed & Breakfast, Bruce & Sallie Blalock began the process in 1994. They poured twenty years of themselves into establishing this one-of-a-kind B&B as a memorable getaway.
Second-generation owners, Linda & Stu Leibowitz, invested their heart and soul in all the fine home details and tailored care for each guest. From the kitchen, guest rooms, cottages, and living spaces, each space has been hand touched by Linda’s design while Stu’s easy-going charm and talent graced the kitchen.
Over 26 years...
this B & B has been serving the Smithville community, and offers a beautiful getaway nestled around a town filled with small-town charm, walkability, scenery, and friendliness.
Amenities allow for a group of friends to gather or a romantic weekend away, whatever you need this is the place for you to escape to!
There are six guest rooms each with a private bath as well as cottages just steps away from the back porch of this historic home. Options to consider when planning your stay include king or queen beds, claw foot-tubs, or step-in showers. Be prepared to indulge in a delicious home-cooked breakfast and relax among the trees that canopy the backyard or on the private balcony while you enjoy the morning coffee or afternoon glass of wine as you embrace the peace and quiet.
The Priors
The legacies each have left are big shoes to fill, but new owners Tiffany & Joe Prior have created the goal to honor the mission of authentically providing a comfortable place for rest, reprieve, and reconnecting to others.
Though the Katy House was not in Prior's ‘planned’ life trajectory, it's funny how curveballs can end up being the best ones for you. Mountains were moved for this opportunity to be possible, so daily, Tiffany says, she is humbled to have been given a chance to be part of this home's history. More than anything, though, their family is passionate about caring for others.
Tens of thousands of guests have been served over the years in this sweet home. It’s truly the perfect Texas hideaway without sacrificing a day in the car or a trip to the airport. Tiffany and Joe invite you to explore and experience the charm of small-town life. Smithville, The Katy House, and their family would love the opportunity to welcome you.

There are so many reasons to come and visit Smithville including access to the Colorado River and an abundance of parks.

Riverbend Park
Located at 107 Hwy 71 W, in Smithville, just west of the Colorado River bridge, is the city’s finest outdoor recreational spot. This park is busy year-round. The park has a walking trail, fishing pier, barbecue pits and picnic tables near the river.
“Chuckwagon Square” is a fenced area that includes a covered stage and dance floor, and acres of old oaks for shade with picnic tables underneath; it is an ideal place for parties, reunions and special events. Washer and horseshoe pits let friends toss a few for fun and competition. Recently, a 9-hole disc golf course was added.
Outside the fence are a lighted softball field and sand volleyball pits for team play. A large playscape area open to the public free of charge, is a favorite with the
younger crowd and has tables and small barbecue pits, great for birthday parties. The covered Park Pavilion, with kitchen facilities can be rented for events during the year, such as carnivals and banquets.
A rodeo arena is also on site, where the Smithville Youth Rodeo Association rides once a month. Two buildings in the park have bathroom facilities.
At the entrance, a train sculpture created by artist Jeff Snyder and the folks at LPAA, welcomes you into the park.
Nineteen RV hookups are available; call the Parks & Recreation Dept. at 512-237-3282, ext 7 to reserve space or to rent areas of the park for events. The park is open year-round.
Buescher State Park
Located on Park Road 1-C in Smithville, Off FM 153, a half mile north of Hwy 71, is in an area known as the Lost Pines Region because of the abundance of pine trees, is on over 1,100 acres. Activities include non-motorized boating (no ramp/small lake); fishing in a stocked lake for catfish, bass, crappie, perch and also rainbow trout; nature study; hiking on 7.5 miles of trails and interpretive programs.

mound of gently sloping dirt. Plant some pretty flowers and bushes and wahlah!, you
bring lots of color to your front yard.
Keep in mind, most berms should be no more than 2 feet high because of the space required to properly build one. They need 4-6 feet of width for every foot of height. For example, for a 2-foot high berm, you would need at least 8 feet of width. So, if you have less room, you will need to lower the berm.
What kind of plants should I use?
Glad you asked! Here are some popular choices but remember, it’s ultimately your choice and how much you want to spend.
• Flowering bushes, such as azaleas
• Evergreens, such as blue spruce
• Perennials, such as periwinkle
• Tall, swaying prairie grasses
• Lots of mulch to keep weeds away
How much will all this beautiful color cost me?

In 1895 a legendary coin flip established the town’s name as “Smithville”. Legend has it that a Burleson and a Smith agreed to “toss” for the name, as the town had been known informally for decades as Smithville but the Burleson family had been instrumental in the town’s growth. Mr. Smith supplied the nickel. It was later discovered that it was, in fact, a double-headed nickel! Mr. Burleson is reported to have written: “I was foiled by a fickle nickel !”
The Smithville Police Department is housed in a natural stone building, which began its life as the fire station, circa 1933. It was built by the Civilian Conservation Corps with stone quarried for the building from a location known as “The Hill.”
Smithville has the only full service hospital, the only airport, the only recycling center, and the only doggy bark park in Bastrop County!

New Business Highlights
301 Main Street
Fat Cat Lounge
One of Smithville’s newest businesses is the Fat Cat Lounge and Cafe, which features an innovative wine bar, a full menu restaurant, and a live music venue. They will showcase acts playing Jazz, Blues, Rock, Country, and everything in between. The owners, Dennis and Lori Huffman have lived here in Smithville for 8 years. Dennis is a retired teacher, who taught in Houston ISD for 30 years, while Lori worked extensively in the wine industry and as a real estate agent. She currently is a realtor for Schultz Texas Properties.
Located at 301 Main Street, on the corner of Main and the Loop, the Fat Cat Lounge is in one of Smithville’s oldest and most revered buildings. Erected in 1902, it is still the tallest building in Bastrop County and was originally the Masonic Lodge. Recently renovated for the wine bar, it now impresses with the perfect blend of the old and new. Exposed red brick and weathered hardwood floors are highlighted by chandeliers and colorful lights, giving it a unique but serene atmosphere.
Because of Lori’s long and varied career in the wine industry, she is uniquely qualified to run their new bar. Lori has worked in every position from retail, to distribution, to national sales and has been one of the key judges at the Houston Rodeo International Wine Competition since it began in 2004. She brings a wealth of experience and insight to share with her patrons and countless connections in the industry. They will host an array of wine classes and dinners, starting with Guy Stout on Dec. 3rd. Guy, The Cowboy Sommelier, is the preeminent figure in the Texas wine industry and will host a wine dinner, featuring selections from his own winery and food he is preparing himself. Come by and support this new business and help Smithville further develop its entertainment and hospitality scene.
Rio Social House
Rio Social House bar and cafe is one of the many new businesses to open their doors in Smithville. The vision of owners, twin sisters, Charlotte and Carrie Keith, is to provide a gathering space for the Smithville community as well as tourists. They have specialty coffee drinks, Blue Bell ice cream, a full bar with craft brews on tap, and mocktails for the sober community. A variety of food items which will change regularly will also be available. Rio has an indoor stage for more intimate performances such as solo artists, singer-songwriters, open mic nights, spoken word or stand up as well as an outdoor stage for the bigger bands.
Rio is not only a business but the building stands out as a piece of art. The 100-year-old Spanish style art deco building showed its age before the sister’s renovation. Many folks have told them they hoped somebody would do something cool with the special space. The sisters have pulled that off with features that include a flamingo mosaic scene, giant mirrored palm trees, and hand-made tile created by local artist, Stefanie Distifano. The adjacent garden is being transformed from a boring plot of grass into a tropical escape complete with a fire pit/pickers circle, sailboat water feature, and one of only 3 petanque courts located in a bar in the US.
501 Main Street
NE 2nd Street
The sisters are excited to share their dream of creating an enchanting space to socialize with friends or get some work done in a relaxing setting using their Wi-Fi, complete with USB ports to plug in and recharge. Once we have made it to the other side of the pandemic, indoor and outdoor games of all sorts for all ages will be available. But for now, enjoy their large outdoor space, perfect for passing the time during covid, with a hot toddy or hot chocolate by the fire. Festive holiday specialty drinks will be on the menu during the holiday season to warm your bones and spirit. Rio’s current hours are from 7 AM – 10 PM 7 days a week.
Carne Lenta
The Taco Flats/ La Holly restaurant/bar group has made its way to Smithville. Operating out of the old Micklethwait BBQ space, Carne Lenta is smoking meats for delicious tacos on homemade tortillas. They opened in November in the building known as the “Vasek Garage” houses Carne Lenta, which is Spanish for “slow meat”, the “garage bar”, and a butcher shop. During lunch the quick service line at Carne Lenta is serving up individual tacos and meats by the pound. At 4pm the garage bar will open its doors for happy hour, then dinner service. Sports and shuffleboard defines the space as the local hang out.
On weekends Tony Olvera Pit-master/Butcher and Partner of the project takes fresh carcasses and processes them for retail consumption. The BUTCHER SHOP sells raw meats and smoked charcuterie on Friday, Saturday and Sunday’s from 11am to 5pm. Friday and Saturday nights from 9pm to 12am, the butcher shop will convert into a pre-prohibition and post-prohibition cocktail speakeasy. Space is limited.
Saturdays will be their day for music. The stage looks out to their patio and toward Olive Street will host local and regional bands. They hope to be the entertainment draw for the surrounding communities. You can follow them on face book and/or instagram @carnelenta.
