Soar over Texas

This summer, invite your love on a romantic getaway in Texas. Reserve a private cabin surrounded by live oaks on a spacious ranch just an hour outside of Houston. Wake your sweetie early in the morning, and surprise him or her with a romantic hot air balloon ride. If arrangements are made in advance, Texas Air Adventures will bring the balloon to our guest ranch near Houston. These are private flights for just the two of you; they are a perfect place to propose, if that is on your mind, or simply to say “I love you” to the person who has stood by you year after year.

Soar over the countryside for about an hour, at dawn. Watch the world awaken as you silently glide above. You may bring your camera, of course, but the folks at Texas Air Adventures will also take photos and give you a CD of your flight; that way, if you would rather simply experience the beauty of the ride together, you will still have images to help you remember it. After the ride, share champagne next to the balloon.

Father’s Day is coming up. Why not surprise the father of your children with a ride he will never forget? Or perhaps you know your own father has always dreamed of soaring silently over the Texas Hill Country; make it happen this year.

Texas romantic getaways

Texas romantic getaways

There are miles of peaceful trails and country roads to explore on your bicycle. Rent a rowboat and spend a morning lazing on the water. Blisswood is the perfect place to come for your romantic getaways in Texas, especially if you and your sweetie enjoy being active in the outdoors.

Blisswood has lots of wide open space for you to explore on foot, as well. Or go for something even more romantic: a horseback ride. Roam through nearly 650 acres of meadows and oak forests, across creeks, and past soothing ponds. See Blisswood Activities for more details about our guided rides.

What could be a better way to woo your sweetheart than a romantic ride in a hot air balloon? Plan your trip through Texas Air Adventures, and spend an afternoon gliding over the scenic landscape of South Central Texas. Then have a delicious candlelit dinner at Carol’s at Cat Springs restaurant.

At Blisswood Bed and Breakfast, even sitting on your porch is relaxing and romantic. So take a break from the daily grind and have a romantic few days here. You may even decide this is the place for your upcoming Texas wedding; if so, don’t hesitate to speak with us about arrangements. We enjoy hosting weddings in Texas.
