Two-step, then try your luck
The old German dance hall still has its maple floor and string lights, now ringed by eleven tables. A country band plays Friday and Saturday, and the floor is never empty.
The Big Floor
Eight tables of classic card and dice games along the edge of the dance floor.
Pecan Wheel
One wheel table under the hall's original pressed-tin star.
The Back Porch
Two private tables on the screened porch above the river.
Longneck Bar
Cold local beer and Texas whiskey poured from a 1909 back bar.
Stone, cedar and river breeze
Seventy-two rooms with limestone walls, cedar beams and quilts made in town. Most look out over the live oaks and the bend in the river.
