Why they chose this property

The historic Silver Spur Dance Hall is set atop Mt. Rugh and overlooks the "Cowboy Capital of the World", Bandera, TX. Woven into the storied fabric of Bandera and the Texas Hill Country itself, the Silver Spur is a place of local legend and lore, and once the hottest dancehall for a Saturday night twirl around the dance floor.

Amazing sunsets provide mystical views and then give way to dark skies at night as the stars come out. There's something really special about Bandera, the Texas Hill Country, and history of the Silver Spur.

What makes this property unique

Before it was the Silver Spur Dance Hall, the floor of the dance hall was originally built as a dance patio for Mt. Rugh Courts. The courts offered stone cottages for travelers and tourists to rent for a hill country getaway, or to do some boot-scootin' on the patio.

Now, we are pleased to offer 4 of the original stone cottages of Mt. Rugh Courts for your stay while touring the Texas Hill Country and visiting the Cowboy Capital of the World, Bandera TX!
