About this property

Red Berry Hollow for a Wedding Party, Aggie Event, Round Top or Family Retreat!

Located on a hill between Brenham and Navasota with a fabulous view, this 5 bedroom, 5-1/2 bath modern farmhouse PLUS an additional 2-2 in a separate "Casita" offers the perfect spot for family or friends to gather in comfort. Looking for a place to hold your family reunion or friend retreat but don't want to be stacked on top of each other? Lots of room to spread out here with activities for all ages. Events are possible, but an additional charge applies based on activity and number of guests.

The two story main house has a large living area with tables to seat 20+, a colorful electric fireplace for "ambiance" or heat, concrete floors on the first floor for minimal worry, a game room with large TV, bar, ice maker, foosball and electronic games, and a separate laundry room. Two ground level bedrooms each have a king bed and private bath. The back porch has a pathway to the neighboring Casita and as well as a path to the fire pit area. The NEW sports pool is also just out the back door, with a large tanning ledge and pool cabana for afternoon shade. The cabana will eventually have cooking facilities, but for now has a tv and seating.

Upstairs is a bunk room (two separate xl twins, bunk with twin on top and double on bottom), a theater with fiber optic twinkling star ceiling, full bath, and two more large bedrooms with private baths (1 king, 2 queens).

The Casita has two bedrooms (1 king, 2 doubles), each with their own private bath, and a center gathering room with futon, table, sink, small refrigerator, and K-cup coffee maker. Outside is a fire ring to enjoy the evening stars and mooing of neighboring cows. Great place for s'mores (roasting sticks provided)!

Activities include a variety of games, toys, and puzzles in the living and game room including an electronic console and card/poker table/bumper pool table, a foosball table, and multiple TV's and a theater. Outside there are a variety of riding, climbing, and swinging toys for kids as well as seasonal berry picking, basketball, ping pong, kickball bases, balls, Disc golf, corn hole, washers, and more. The lake has a short pier for jumping off or launching the paddle boat. The woods and flowers provide perfect subjects for photographers and artists. Hay is grown across most of the property surrounding the house.

Sunsets and sunrises are spectacular and the wildlife is abundant in the woods and yard. All wildlife is protected, except for the feral hogs!

For outdoor grilling enthusiasts, there is a propane grill and Traeger smoker on the back porch (that will be moved to the pool cabana). An additional freezer for ice only is in the garage and an ice maker is in the game room. Outdoor seating is provided in several locations as well as camp chairs in the garage for sitting around the fire pit.

A separate cabin with a queen bed is available if additional space is needed. Please inquire if you are interested. $150 for the stay. The 2-2 Casita may be available on its own if the entire house is not needed. Please inquire.

Just off the highway but out in the country, “Deep in the Heart Farm” wedding venue is only 3 miles down the road, Kyle Field is just 37 miles away, Chappell Hill is 9 miles, Lake Somerville is 25 miles, Washington on the Brazos State Historic Site is 8 miles, George H. W. Bush Presidential Library is 38 miles away, the Brenham Country Club is 10 miles away, and the Blue Bell Creamery is only 12 miles down the road!

Colton & Carley wedding
This property is amazing, the views are incredible and Janis is fabulous to work with. The house had everything that we could have needed, there were games and outdoor activities, a pool that some brave ones did swim in because the temperatures were still kind of cool. We used the Casita and the little cabin and they were also just as charming. The main house was perfect for the rehearsal dinner for outdoor and inside seating. The weekend was perfect and Janis, the host, took care of all of our needs. Would definitely highly recommend and stay here again.

Dad's 70th birthday
My brothers and I were celebrating my Dad's birthday via surprise party at Rail & Rye down the street and then spent the weekend at Red Berry Hollow. Our party consisted of 22 adults and 6 children. Everyone had plenty of room when utilizing the house, casita, and cabin. The owner was responsive and so generous with everything she provided. It was truly an unmatched experience after years and years of renting on VRBO. My Dad's family flew in from Chicago and we wanted to give them a Texas experience and this definitely fit the bill. There was so much to do we never left the house the entire weekend. Would love to make this an annual trip if possible. Thank you Janis!

Amazing home - perfect for large groups
We stayed here for a long weekend with our extended family - 5 couples and 6 kids, aged 13-24. We had plenty of room for eveyone to sleep comfortably and there was so much to do. The property is amazing, the game room is so fun, the media room was fun for movie night and the pool was perfect. It was especially nice that every room has its own bathroom. The kitchen is well stocked with everything we needed to prepare meals for 16 and it was really nice that we could all dine together at one table. Aside from a quick trip to bluebell and HEB, we didnt even leave the property!! Highly recommended for a relaxing getaway.

Wedding Reception
This is a gorgeous property. We used it for our daughter's wedding reception. It was enough space for all our overnight guests & specious enough to have guest for the wedding reception. Very impressive property with plenty activities for the family. Everyone loved it and thought it was just so beautiful! My daughter & son-in-law were so happy to have their wedding reception at Red Berry Hollow. We have made memories that will last a lifetime. Thank you for sharing your unique Ranch with us.

This place is LEGIT !!!!!
We stayed here for our daughters wedding in Deep in the Heart Farms (DITF) which is only a couple miles away. We had a large group of family and friends staying with us and the house had everything that we could have needed for cooking or entertaining. We had a brunch at the house on Sunday and there were around 40-50 ppl there and we didn't feel crowded at all. This place is perfect for out of town wedding guests, family retreats, corporate events or A&M games (please don't mind the UT decorations). I am a frequent VRBO user and this place is on the TOP of the list!!! thank you!

Dream Family Getaway!
My son got married up the street at Deep in the Heart and we stayed at this beautiful home with all of our out of town family. It was the perfect replace for all of us! We also had the catered rehearsal dinner at the home! We were able to seat 60 people inside and have a fun dance party outside after the sun went down. Janis was so incredibly helpful with all aspects of our long weekend. We will definitely be back :)

Red Berry Hollow is a must stay location for any large group! The house has everything you need for long stay and more. We had 6 families with children that ranged from 0-13 years old. Janis is a great host who was very helpful in all of our group’s requests. Pool and outdoor amenities are great, kitchen is large and fully stocked, media room star feature was great, and living space was great for a large group to hang. We cannot wait to come back!

The best house ever for a large group!!!
I cannot say enough to describe how amazing and perfect this house was for our family group of 22 people. Everyone slept comfortably and every bedroom had its own bathroom. Even when the entire group sat down for dinner at the same time, there was plenty of room. It’s hard to describe how 22 people can be in one house and we never felt crowded. And if the house were not enough, Janis was an amazing and gracious host. I cannot give a higher recommendation to Red Berry Hollow!!!

A gem deep in the heart of Texas
This place is a true gem. My daughter got married at Deep in the Heart Farms wedding venue just 8 miles away. We had the rehearsal dinner the night before on the back patio. It worked out perfectly! There was plenty of room for the bride and bridesmaids to stay in their own place and the groom and groomsmen to stay in their house. Then after the wedding the bride and groom stayed in their own private cabin. The house had everything and then some! I gave it 4 stars for accuracy because the pictures did not do the house justice. It is a lot more beautiful in person. The fireplace was my favorite!

About the host

Hosted by Janis

Host profile image
Purchased the land as a family retreat for relatives in Austin, Dallas, Montgomery, Pearland, and The Woodlands to gather together for fun weekends and holidays. Most of us were born in Texas and always loved the Brenham area and especially Blue Bell ice cream! We're still creating new activities as the younger members develop new interests, but there's never a dull moment at the Hollow!

Why they chose this property

Bluebonnets covered the acreage, the countryside views were wonderful, and the close proximtiy to the Blue Bell factory and we were hooked! A lake was created and stocked with crappie and bass, but then a leak was discovered. Agh! It has been reworked and restocked with little fishies but they are still too little for catch and release. The house and Casita were built, trails were mowed through the woods, and wildlife is protected and encouraged...except for the feral hogs!

What makes this property unique

Central location from Houston, Austin and Dallas and plenty of room to spread out and enjoy. Something for everyone!
