 Extraordinary Design

The Crooked Branch Lounge will invite the outside in as the design will gracefully flow from a quintessential Texas Hill Country sophisticated lounge into a relaxed outside patio with lounge style sofas with fire pits.

Guests will be able to meet inside and can relax in front of the fire place, chill in a corner to catch up on email or join the party out on the patio in front of the fire pits.

The center iconic bar will be a signature element of the resort. Lighting will change through the day to set the right mood. The mix of casual and communal seating will flow from the indoor lounge into the outside courtyard.

The natural elements of the surrounding landscape will be represented through local art mediums.

The communal table will be the centerpiece of the lounge area. A blend of lounge seating and dining tables will be available inside and outside. Perfect for large or intimate gatherings.
