Hanna, born to Ernst and Antoinette after their arrival in Texas, was the middle child. In her later years, she returned to care for her aging parents and stayed in this room. This is the largest suite in the house. There are 2 rooms adjoining, and the bathroom is in the second bedroom. Pocket doors close for privacy between the 2 rooms, although access is through the first room. There is a dressing screen you can pull across the shower for privacy while the doors are open. Each bed is a queen size, and very comfortable, with 650 thread count sheets. A small refrigerator is in the closet, which was built from the back of the stage at Gruene Hall.

Antoinette's Cottage Information
Description
In this part of the house, I have left the walls much as I found them, adding to the feeling of being in history. The Gruene's added 3 rooms to the front of the house in high Victorian style, with 12' ceilings, tall windows to let in lots of light, and gorgeous red pine floors, an extinct species which gives the house that Wonderfull "old house smell". In the back are the workrooms of board and batten construction, but that is currently off-limits to guests. I have added a large pergola to the side of the house where we eat breakfast, weather permitting. To my right is the parking lot for Gruene Hall, and the location for many fun runs bike races and music festivals. Beyond that is the intersection of Hunter rd and Gruene Rd, where many other shops and restaurants are located. Continuing do
