Had a great one-night stay with my girlfriend. Really enjoyed it. Great hospitality and accommodations. Enjoyed Smithville and hiking in the state park. I did hear the train at night but it was not a big deal. I recommend this spot. Good price/value. Easy to get to. Fun get-away.

High points: Microfiber sheets on the bed are GREAT. I need some of these. Breakfast is very good, not great, albeit offered quite late at 9 a.m. with no other options. Buddy & Carter, the proprietor's dogs, are very cute. Low points: Pillows should be thrown out and replaced. They are just too hard if you have to put your... More

I stayed here during October a previous year. The facilities are very comforting as you lounge and relax. All decor is true to the period and adds lots of warmth to your ambiance.

We recently stayed at the Katy House for the weekend and had a great time! Sally & Bruce (the owners) were so accommodating - everything from dinner recommendations and reservations, setting us up a place to play cards at night, homemade chocolate chip cookies every day, and a wonderful breakfast each morning. There is lots of train memorabilia to look... More

We were warmly welcomed and the overall atmosphere was very relaxing. Breakfast both mornings was a real treat with the yummy casseroles, fresh fruit & great coffee. The delightful conversations...

Our room was across the street from a very loud bar that played music until midnight. Between that, the train whistle and the backyard "security light" (were we in an unsafe area?) lighting up the room as if it were midday we barely slept a wink. The woman who owns the house was very nice and we enjoyed her 2... More

Going to the Katy house is like going to visit long lost friends in Smithville Texas. We arrived on a Friday evening around 6:30. Bruce and Carter ( the dog) greeted us and gave us a short tour of the house and our room. The room was very large, clean and well equipped. The bathroom had a footed tub and... More

Bruce and Sallie have a wonderful B&B. Very hospitable, will definitely be back! Love the town too, nice quiet get-away.
