10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Apr 2025
In Central Texas for a big family wedding and The Roost was perfect for my wife & I, two children and in-laws. Home was built in 1883 and is in amazing shape. The gated parking was ample, the grounds were well maintained, beds & sitting areas were very comfortable, the WiFi did not let us down and the kitchen & bathrooms met our needs nicely. The property host was responsive & kind, and we look forward to our next stay at The Roost.

The Roost was absolutely a wonderful place to stay. The peace and quiet we experienced here exceeded our expectations. The views off the back porch were breathtaking as we sat on the rocking chairs sipping our coffee. I wish we could have stayed longer but will definitely be back!

Words cannot express how much I enjoyed my stay. I had planned to do a lot of work, but this place just did not allow me. It was exactly what I needed.

Having grown up in Schulenburg long ago, this visit, accompanied by intergenerational family members, surpassed all expectations. It was incredibly clean inside, and all of the amenities were exactly as described. Beds were comfortable upstairs and down. The antique furniture was appealing. My six-year-old granddaughter from San Francisco loved getting close to the cattle behind the fence. This is, after all, a working cattle farm. I especially appreciated how quiet the St. John area is, in contrast to the noisy urban environment where we live. The gentle southerly breeze from the Gulf of Mexico was exactly as I remembered it growing up locally in the 1940s and 1950s. Rocking on the front or back porch was a special pleasure.
