This was my 4th stay at the Rainbow courts and the 3rd in the last two years. This is our come to place when we are in the Rockdale, Texas area, which is often. We like that it is not only very clean and fashionably furnished but reflects a taste of history when “motor hotels” began in the decade1918 and the growing use of automobiles.

Great quiet spot just off of downtown Rockdale. It’s an actual historic location with it being the Texas oldest active motel. Room was clean & nostalgic with a comfy feeling of staying at your favorite aunties/grannies house. Owners/managers are very friendly & try everything to help you have a great stay. Definitely will return if working in Rockdale again.

A delightful find
Finding a unique property with excellent reviews in the little town of Rockdale Texas was delightful! This retreat spot is over 100 years old. A comfortable room with king size bed, tv, microwave and frig and coffee maker was all we needed. However, coffee and apple cider and homemade muffins were served in the office. Before dinner at a recommended restaurant, we relaxed on the beautiful lawn in Adirondack chairs. Our only thought was how soon can we get back here for a longer stay!

Comfortable and friendly. Sat out front on a rainy morning (after a full night’s sleep in a comfy bed) with my book, a cup of coffee, and the neighborhood cat listening to the thunder rumbling in. A delightful morning and a delightful stay.

History in comfort
The cottage took a little time to warm up the first night but we were comfortable. In the morning we woke and it was cold and there was no power ( though we had been happily warm in bed). So we we were moved across to another cottage which was lovely, but slightly less practical with our cases because it was separate living and bedrooms. We enjoyed great conversations with the owners and would happily stay here again.
