While exploring around Brenham, we decided to drive out to it for lunch. It was unique, and had great burgers & shakes, and good, friendly service. We watched a smaller plane taxi up relatively close to the restaurant and a traveling family got off and came in for a burger while their plane was being refueled. After eating, they then boarded and took off. I write this now because we were planning another trip to Brenham, remembered our lunch here, and looked it up on Yelp to find it again; and decided to post our last experience.

I found this place as I googled for B&B near where I was going to sky dive. They had a few sleeping options but we opted for the cottage a 1 bedroom cottage that sleeps 6 comfortably has a wooden patio with seating, AC, a cable TV, bathroom & mini fridge & micro. Clayton, the owner, gave me tour & as I walked the farm I couldn't help but be overwhelmed with the smells & it wasn't manure!! The roses, herbs & other flowers, amazing how many times I stopped to; "literally smell the roses". As I toured what stood out was the meditation labyrinth, the drum circle room, the party barn & the tree houses. These folks have thought of everything! Have kids? Well they will love the animals, treehouses & swings. Love nature? You'll love the vegetable garden, flowers & thoughtful sitting areas. Are you a hippy? Then you'll love the meditation labyrinth, drum room or fire pit. Maybe your a big family or want to have an event? They have an awesome room they call the party barn with pool table, shuffle board, full bar, kitchen & thoughtful decor. Enough of my stereotyping but you get the point, they have a variety of activities to suit almost anyone. We were planning to go to the nearby state park but after settling in & seeing what the farm had to offer- we didn't need to move. Probably more amazing then the surroundings & thoughtful activities are the owners themselves. Marsha is a talented artist & Clayton a sort of renaissance man himself were very welcoming. We struck conversations right away & within a hour or two were invited to join them & another couple staying on the farm for dinner. It's so refreshing to get to know humans that reach out to others, people that don't make you feel like strangers. If you are close or even if your not & desire a retreat from the norm both scenically & socially, try Waits farm retreat. I think you'll be happy you gave it a try.

This place was so unbelievably peaceful and serene and the owners Clayton and Marsha were absolutely amazing and now have become part of our little family! They were very welcoming and it didn't take long for us to invite them to hang out and spend time with us. Two of the best people I've met, the grounds were beautiful, the cottage was adorable, just what I needed to relax and get my mind off my hectic city life. We all have decided to now make this a yearly trip and we can't wait to go back! Thanks again Clayton and Marsha for sharing your home and life with 6 dysfunctional strangers....Love ya!!!! P.S. get them to make you a real homecooked breakfast, totally worth the extra money!!!!!

There is a lot to do in Brenham and your host will offer many suggestions. If we are ever back in town, I would definitely check to see if this place is available.

The house is super cute, once you are inside it's like a little time warp oasis. Susan and James were so nice and helpful with their suggestions and just making us feel right at home. We stayed in "Antique Rose Room"- I have a habit of trying to avoid rooms that sound too grandmotherly but this room was awesome. The bed was high up with cute wooden stairs. It was decorated with Susan's grandmothers old furniture- but she had amazing taste. Plus the bathroom was just fantastic and they seem to think of everything. Dark makeup towels, bath salts, a refinished beautiful claw foot tub, a nightlight that goes on at nite so you don't stub your toes in an unfamiliar place. Apparently the Brenham house used to be a German Lutheran Church in it's former day but it has been a B&B for a number of years. I won't tell you too much about the history because after Susan and James feed you a gourmet complimentary 3 course breakfast they will come and sit with you at the table and share about themselves and the history. Susan and James 4 years ago ran a very popular Bakery in Houston and the food will be a testament to their previous, current and future success. Make sure and have a cup of tea and sit out on the back porch and do bring your wine after going tasting, they have bottle openers and glasses waiting for you. Brenham is a charming town and we would definitely stay here again.

Growing up in the country, parks were pretty much the only place that you could go to without…read morepacking a bag and going to the city to take your kids to the zoo, amusement park, etc. Henderson Park, however, holds a special place in my heart because of the family reunions that used to be held here. May was our month to come together and celebrate family and food (lots of food) and get reacquainted. Unfortunately, for years, Henderson Park didn't receive the maintenance needed to make it plausible to continue having reunions here anymore, but I was shocked to see the upgrades to Henderson on a recent visit to Brenham. Lots of tlc has been poured into this park to revitalize it. In fact, I didn't even know how much history was apart of the park until I read the newly installed landmark signage that designates Henderson as a Lone Star Legacy Park, the highest honor that a park can receive according to the Texas Recreational and Parks Society. The designation was received in 2022, but the park is actually older than Fireman's Park across the street, which received the Lone Star Legacy Park honor in 2014. I'm just glad that this historical landmark has been restored and rejuvenated with a new venue with AC, which is a great update because my family use to place screens on the windows and run fans when we used Henderson back in the day. You'll also enjoy a bbq pit on the premises as well as a covered partition with picnic style benches as well as playgrounds, basketball courts and a baseball field which has a extraordinary place in history because Henderson (which was the park designated for African Americans during segregation) gave the Negro Leagues (and that is what they were called, so I am not going to change history here) a place and space to play. I am so glad that the baseball park remains a vital part of the park as well as the addition of a waterpark around the entryway to Henderson. Spacious and attractive, a day at Henderson provides some relaxation, relief, and literally a breath of fresh air if you visit. I'm excited to bring the family back together post covid to relaunch our reunions at Henderson in the near future, but I give pause and recognize how great it is that history still holds a special place in people's hearts and minds. Henderson Park will forever be a part of history. Let us not only celebrate it but cherish its presence and preservation to keep history alive in our community.
