Peaceful Farm Cabin for Couples | TX Hill Country

More than a place to stay, this is a retreat shaped by family, art, and time.

Cozy and full of artistic charm, The Palette Pad is perfect for couples, writers, and guests seeking a boutique, one-of-a-kind farm experience. Enjoy history, art, gardens, and inspiration while feeling completely at home. Many guests return year after year.

The Palette Pad has been part of my family’s story for generations. When my parents purchased this land, they offered each of their five children the chance to build a home here. My husband Dan and I were the only ones who did, moving to the farm in 1971 and building our home in 1977.

After my father passed in 1986, Dan and I began purchasing the farm, and when my mother died in 2010, she left her home and art studio to us. We raised our family here, and our youngest son later built a home on the property, keeping the family close. Our oldest son, after building a successful IT business in Dallas, returned with his wife to make the farm home again.

The Palette Pad is the heart of creativity on the farm. Its artistic charm, cozy interiors, and peaceful surroundings make it perfect for couples celebrating special moments, writers seeking inspiration, and guests looking for a boutique, one-of-a-kind experience. With the help of my sisters, we lovingly remodeled the interiors, blending comfort and style while honoring my parents’ legacy.

Hosting guests allows me to share my parents’ dream, the history of the land, and my mother—artist C. P. Montague’s legacy. Each home includes a notebook telling the story of how my parents discovered the property, built the homes, and how my mother became a favorite of President Lyndon B. Johnson. Her artwork is displayed throughout, adding beauty and meaning to every stay.

Many guests return year after year, which is the highest compliment. It is an honor to welcome you to The Palette Pad—a place of history, creativity, and cozy inspiration—and we hope you feel right at home.

My fiancé, dog and I stayed here for a wedding in Round Rock. We enjoyed the peace at The Palette Pad. Sheron made us blueberry muffins that were so good!! Our dog loved the open space. We all walked down to the river through the pecan orchard and found fossils! So cool! Sheron was communicative, helpful and so sweet. Highly recommend staying here. Thank you again so much for everything!

The host brought us a dozen banana nut muffins fresh out of the oven for free! They were so good. The cabin is small, quiet and has tons of windows. I felt like we were camping in the woods. We brought our dogs and they enjoyed walking and meeting the cows. (A first for them.) Would love to go back and spend more time hiking down by the river.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Scurlock Farm, The Palette Pad is perfect for one couple. Very comfortable and peaceful. Sheron delivered delicious, hot, homemade blueberry muffins at 9:00 our first morning there. The location is very convenient to Georgetown, but far enough away to be quiet and very relaxed. An easy walk down to San Gabriel River if you want to fish or explore. Highly recommend.

Perfect Anniversary Getaway

We booked this property specifically because of the river access. So glad that we did! We spent most of the day Saturday on the river, and had it completely to ourselves! Our amazing hosts encouraged us to drive our car close to the river access, so we only had a short walk to a very large flat rock next to the river. Put our chairs in a shallow spot and just chilled. A peaceful, quiet, relaxing day in nature sitting in the cool flowing water. The Palette Pad had everything we needed. The tour of the farm was interesting and fun. Ate at 3 different restaurants in town, and had amazing food each time! We will definitely be back!

A place to sleep

It was a cute house, and a good place to sleep, but i wanted the extras that were talked about in the posting like the homemade muffins and getting walked around the farm. We didnt see anyone else there and there werent any animals besides a few cows we saw as we were leaving.

Palette Pad Stay

My wife and I and our Yorkie really enjoyed our 3 nights at the Palette Pad on Scurlock Farms. Sheron provided a thorough and informative drive-around tour of their entire property including the pecan orchard and San Gabriel River frontage. We visited and fed the goats and got up close to the 2 baby goats just born 1 day before our arrival. My wife got inside the fence with 8 Black Angus cows and fed them some treats. Just a little shake of the bucket had them coming up to her for more. The farm is located a short 10-25 minute drive from downtown Georgetown, which we visited each night to enjoy some great food and drinks and even took in a well-done, very funny performance of Leading Ladies at the Palace Theatre. The whole experience was somewhat magical and a bit too short. We plan to visit again with our family of 9 and stay in the Palette Pad and the Rocky Overlook house next door…just as soon as a booking is possible. Thanks so much, Sheron, gif your hospitality. Jim and Sue and Gracie.
