The Barta bungalow in Shiner

Our 1951 bungalow in the heart of Shiner, Texas will make you feel like a local the moment you step through the door. It has been in our family for nearly 40 years and is just steps from Welhausen Park, historic downtown Shiner, the Spoetzl Brewery and the beautiful Saint Cyril and Methodius Catholic Church. We hope you will enjoy our little piece of "the cleanest little city in Texas." Welcome home.

THE SPACE:
The Barta Bungalow has two equal-sized bedrooms equipped queen-sized beds. There is one full bathroom in the middle of the house. There is ample space for hanging clothes in the closet, as well as several shelves for folded items. Additionally, the bathroom has tons of extra storage space on empty shelves behind the door. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you might need to prepare your own meals. And, yes, there's a blender, a coffee grinder, coffee maker and coffee. The bathroom should have nearly everything you need: Towels, soaps, essentials, hair dryer, even make-up wipes.

GUEST ACCESS:
Guests have access to the entire house, parking name it. Our home is your home.

INTERACTION WITH GUESTS:
As we will be out of town during your stay, our personal availability will be limited to email, phone or text, but our local property manager will be on-call for any emergencies. Additionally, in the living room, you will find a list of area restaurants and places of interest.

THE AREA:
The heart of Shiner is filled with pecan tree-lined streets and feels like you've been transported back in time. Walk to a nearby coffee shop, grocery store, restaurant or the brewery, and enjoy taking it slow.

GETTING AROUND:
Parking is available under the carport next to the house, but a car is not the only way to get around Shiner. We suggest biking or walking as well. In addition, the Austin-Bergstrom International Airport is only an hour and a half drive away, and the George Bush International Airport in Houston is approximately two hours away.

Cattle Country music festival
This property was perfect for our three day music festival. We needed a place to stay and relax in between concert events. We also enjoyed the Texas history around the area.

Great location
This little cottage is perfect for a group of 4. Quiet neighborhood, yet super convenient to walk to all the activities downtown and events at Spoetzl Brewery. Beautiful landscaping makes the front porch a perfect place for your morning coffee. Will definitely book next time we come to Shiner!

Shiner bungalow
We loved the house! It was very clean and had everything we needed. The bed was comfy, and the house is really close to the brewery which is why we were in town (Summerfest). We’ll definitely rent the home again for the next Shinerfest we come in for.

The house was nice and quaint.
The house needs some fixing up and updating...perhaps some paint inside and out and some landscaping....
