Visiting Columbus

As the sun begins to stretch its arms west across the state, make your way down to the Howell Canoe Livery on the banks of the mighty Colorado River for an early dawn drift. Gently glide down the molasses-moving waterway while deer graze on the shoreline and waterfowl bob in the shallows. Here, the tranquility of nature cocoon you, with nothing to think about except for what adventures lay ahead.

Before retiring to Columbus, TX hotels, a pilgrimage to the Stafford Opera House is a must. You can almost feel the spirits of vaudeville performers from the 1800s come alive when you step through the front doors. And the light fixtures resemble those you’d find adorning the walls of an old English countryside manor. You’ll feel right at home while sitting in your upper-level box.

Break away from your normal travel agenda and rent a car in Columbus to go 124 miles west to The Alamo City like the early Texas settlers did. You’ll want to peruse the sets of perfectly handcrafted ceramic kitchenware endemic to the area—local artists create colorful masterpieces with the same kind of passion with which you approach life. Later, let the rhythm of Mariachi guitars guide your feet across a cantina’s dance floor before calling it a night in the hotels in San Antonio.
