The last week of August my girlfriend turns 50.  We were wanting to do an Isla trip or something like that, but want a few more friends to go so I wanted to get some recommendations for a good place to go for 3 or 4 days.  We will be driving from the Woodlands area.

This will most likely be us two for this trip, so looking at resort type hotels, nice restaurants, etc.  

Or some totally off the wall boutique hotel that is a must.

 

TIA

Can I interest you in in scenic Texas City and it's big dike?

 

In all seriousness, if Terlingua wasn't such a haul, the bubble rooms look cool here:

Availibility at such short notice probably sucks.

As you already know, anywhere close is going to suck from a weather (heat) perspective in late August.  However, what about the west end of Galveston (Pointe West)?  Condos down there can be had for $175-200 a night.  Sure, it's Galveston it's not a huge trek, there are decent restaurants in town and the west end is quiet and pretty laid back.

That looks cool as hell.

If you're talking about Terlingua, it does.  I stumbled on it when looking for answers to your starting point.  I'm contemplating booking something there.  

If you're talking about Pointe West, it is.  I am not a huge fan of the Texas coast and don't love the beach but Pointe West is a nice area.

Somebody has to say it-Pampa.  Long drive, though.

What's wrong with Throckmorton?

Shorter drive...
