About the host
Hosted by Christa Wilson
Two twin sisters and husbands decided to purchase seven acres of land "in the country" together for their families to have a place for weekend getaways. They chose Brenham because there is still a lot of fun things to do in the area and the views on the property are gorgeous. They built the barndo to be an entertainers dream house so they could build memories as their kids (8 between the two families) grew up. They named it the 12 Armadillos because there are 12 of them between the two families. Please check out our Downtown Brenham property that sleeps 18.
Why they chose this property
You will fall in love with the 12 Armadillos Barndo. It has something for all ages and you will want to come back every year! It is close to Houston, Austin, and San Antonio
What makes this property unique
The 12 Armadillos Barndo has beautiful views, great location, really neat grand room for large groups, and a fun atmosphere!
