If you’re looking to get away and enjoy a peaceful and relaxing weekend in the country, visit West Sandy Creek Winery, nestled next to the picturesque Sam Houston National Park, just outside of Huntsville.
Situated on 360 acres, the winery announced that it will partner with a local food truck, Sweet Dough, to provide a variety of tasty dishes to go along with its collection of wines. The menu will feature casual fare including sandwiches, salads, pizza, and tacos.
“We look forward to welcoming guests to enjoy a glass of wine and a bite to eat off our new food menu,” said Sandy McGinley, West Sandy Creek Winery’s general manager. “Our team takes great pride in creating a peaceful and rejuvenating experience away from the hustle and bustle of city life.”
While onsite, guests can enjoy the company of animals who call the winery home, including horses, cows, goats, chickens, zebras, donkeys, and zebronkeys.
West Sandy Creek Winery is a short drive from Houston and the perfect way to spend a Sunday afternoon. If you want to make a weekend out of it, you can rent one of their peaceful cabins with all the comforts of home including a full kitchen, fire pit, and more.
