Lodging

Spend a few days to see it all!

Smithville makes a great final destination with lots of small-town charm, friendly people, historic places, and things to do and see. We are also a great central location for a quiet evening after taking day trips to many Central Texas sites and cities. We have a wonderful selection of beautiful places you can stay overnight.
