    One of the conatiner houses

    This was such a good experience!! The container houses were fun, cozy, and perfect for a getaway and Nigel was an amazing host!!! He gave us all the info on the best food and fun in town! Will stay again!

    Found this place on instagram and decided to give it a try. This is not a glamorous place, better for quiet getaways, or weekend getaways. If you need to detach from the city and find a quiet place to refresh I'd recommend. The hotel containers on located on a ranch but there's no one around, just occasional cows and horses that go by. So don't expect anyone to wait on you or to be around for help. Our container was clean and nicely decorated, beds were comfortable but bring your own sheets in colder weather because what's offered isn't much. Just enough space for a couple, 2-3 friends, family with one kid or people with small dogs. I wouldn't recommend for families with small kids, big families or big groups, unless you split the group in different containers. I enjoyed the quiet and peace, not a place for noise or partying. I wouldn't recommend for big girl or guy group trips because it would be rude to other patrons bc containers and common areas of close together and noise would disrupt everyone. Loved the free wood, fuel and space offered for fires at night. Smores are a must! Not much to do around the city of Roundtop and Brenham, so this place is great to just in a hammock, hang out at all day and just relax and unwind from the busy schedule of life.

    Typical sunset from the porch. Followed by millions of stars.

    Stayed Oct. 24 for two no moon nights. OMGosh what a star and planet treat. We were the only people there so super quiet and the pool was ours. Nigel stopped by to drop off a pair of binoculars for star gazing. The place was just expected from the last trip. Clean, comfortable, no TV and quiet. Brought easy foods and just relaxed. Highly recommended if you want or need to get away. The website is very informative but there is so much more appreciate. Their hospitality is first rate. The town offers eats and there is plenty of countryside to see or not.

    Shipping container hotel rooms!

    Talk about neat! We had heard about this place, and wanted to see it. The owners said sure, walk around. Each container is on piers, about 3 feet off the ground. Each one has a wooden porch and chairs. Living room, small kitchen, bathroom, bedroom. Everything you need for a relaxing weekend. There's even a container swimming pool, or hot tub, your call. These people have got it figured out! Sunrise on the porch with coffee, or sunset on the porch with a beverage of your choice, you'll love this place. Come check it out. AND Bediko's is right down the road. Be sure and stop!

    Loved this place.. the linens and duvet's were fab super Comfortable. The containers are actually pretty spacious . We had 2 adults and 2 kids in number VI (double bed plus bunk bed) - (I think using the sofa bed would Have made the place seem very small) We travelled with 2 kids (age 5 and 8 ) we All Had a FAB time. Highlights were the Pool, cooking s'mores at the fire pit, watching the cows In the evening and seeing the stars at night (big and bright!). We also loved exploring the 'Junk' around the yard... would love to come back!!

    What a cool concept to turn shipping containers into a mod hotel! The windows made it feel spacious and we loved the boho chic decor. The room was equip with a record player with a solid record collection. There is a refrigerator that was stocked with coke and sparkling water, plus a microwave to heat up your food. We also built a fire at night and enjoyed watching the stores. The shipping containers are decorated with colorful graffiti that makes for fun photo shoots! They even have a pool made out of a shipping container. It was super quiet and relaxing! It's not too far from downtown Round Top, which is an antique shoppers dream. We definitely would recommend staying here for an unique getaway!

    This place was beyond amazing! We enjoyed our girls weekend and made wonderful memories this last weekend! We stayed in unit 4 which sleeps up to 6 and the 3 of us were very comfortable. We spent our days in Round Top and our evenings around the fire and hot tub. I'll be back in December with my mom for my birthday

    View from pool/back door of containers!

    This property is nothing short of a unique experience. Each container is unique and offers a beautifully curated kitchen, living room, bathroom, and bedroom! Matt is a true artist. They even have a fun community pool made from the same containers! It has a beautiful view of a field with trees and cows and that gorgeous Texas sky. Stick around for sunset on the back porch - just make sure you have a beer or cocktail in hand. Head on into Round Top for the best burger you'll ever eat at The Dugout! Thanks so much, Matt! Keep creating these beautiful spaces!

    Clean, comfortable and would highly recommend!

    We were passing through the area and thought it would be fun to experience a shipping container home. What a treat! We were not disappointed. Matt was so kind and helpful. He had problems with his water Main that day but went out of his way to accommodate. The accommodations were clean and comfortable. The views of the pastures were peaceful and perfect! Thank you, Matt for going above and beyond. If we could give 10 stars- we would.

    loved our stay and experience at the flop houze! all of the attention to detail with things that matter!! ie. comfy bed, great water pressure in the shower, nice bath towels, record player & lots of fun literature on things to do/see while in round top. although we were set to stay for two nights and the cancellation policy is quite strict, matt, the owner was more than accommodating to our situation. our neighbors were quite loud and we couldn't even hear them while inside the container. all in all, we wish we could have stayed longer and plan to stay again in the future for the big antique show.

    Perfect quick getaway for 5 girls. We stayed in Houze #4. I love the eucalyptus spray in the shower! Matt is very nice and friendly. He responded very quickly to my calls and messages.

Staying here with a comfortable bed and a clean cottage was refreshing. And on a plus side no kids screaming through halls or feet stomping from upstairs. Just peace and quiet. The folks that operate the place are friendly and hospitable and bend over backwards to make you feel at home. For the record I am not affiliated nor being reimbursed for this review. Just a happy client.

After getting out of the car we were pleasantly surprised at how beautiful the grounds were. There's no shortage of lush bushes, flowers, and trees. We were immediately greeted by the owners who were friendly and gracious. They take pride in their property and it shows! They even gave us a quick tours of the other guest houses on the property, which no one was in at the time. We stayed in the stone cottage which is a refurbished smoke house, no worries...it doesn't smell like one any longer. The cottage was immaculate! Clean, clean! It had 2 window units, ceiling fans in the bathroom and bedroom. They have thought of everything! Right down to the umbrella hanging by the door to the bug spray and flashlight for nightly strolls on the grounds! I would definitely recommend staying here and plan to do so again!

We were greeted each morning on the back porch rocking chairs by a herd of Longhorn amongst the backdrop of the beautiful Texas Hill country, truly picturesque. Our room had the most amazing decor that I like to describe as luxury boho with a country chic twist. From the hand painted curtains, luxury linens, two person tub to the record player, leather bound journal, library of eclectic books, the Wander Inn has every detail thought out and it truly shows! Thank you so much for a wonderful stay! We'll come back over and over.

    This is the perfect B&B if you're visiting the Ledbetter or surrounding areas (Round Top, Burton,…read moreGiddings). I was with two other gal pals and we were attending a holiday bash at our friends' family ranch three miles away; we didn't want to drive all the way back to Houston after drinking, so we booked our one-night stay at Night Bird Ranch. It's off the beaten path from the small town of Ledbetter, but that makes for a quiet and private retreat. We booked the Lonesome Dove and Hidalgo rooms; rooms were clean - recently renovated with plenty of towels, blankets, pillows, and a space heater for those extra chilly nights. We had two rooms with two twin beds - beds were firm. Bedding was comfortable. Soaps and shampoo/conditioner was provided, but it's the kids kind, so if you like your fancy products, pack your own. Kiki and her family live on the 70-acre property; she is a friendly host and we felt welcomed during our stay. Upon arrival, she gave us a tour and even let us assist with feeding the animals the morning we left. She also gave me a cash refund because they had a special discount rate for the night and honored that for me - without me even asking about it. Real hospitality! There's a dance hall/dining hall where Kiki provides wine, coffee, tea and snacks. Our stay included a hot breakfast, and it was fantastic! Fresh biscuits, eggs, sausage gravy, sausage links (and of course, cereal for the kiddies). Onsite there's a lake, acres of exploring, campfire station, and animals: three horses, 2 lambs, and a miniature donkey - and don't forget about Elvis the ranch dog! Love that Kiki and her family are animal lovers. Keep in mind though, outside dogs from guests are not allowed because of the many farm animals. My girlfriends and I fully enjoyed our stay and want to return with a group to have a little ranch life fun. I highly rec this for small groups, retreats, families (kids will love) and even those looking for a space to host an event, like a quaint country wedding or family gathering.

The trip from Austin to Ledbetter was quick, so we called Kiki and got specific directions to our room and even found out about their restaurant, Teague's Tavern in Round Top. After dinner we sat on the porch and listened to the country sounds while Garth sat at our feet. The room was fantastic. Just the right size for us, furnished simply but with care to the details. We left before breakfast, but heated up some of our leftovers from dinner, in the dining hall, to eat on the road. We loved our stay at Night Bird Ranch and plan to come back again, to get away from it all.
