If you have other questions, please feel free to email them to us at info@homesteadcraftvillage.com.
Is there an admission charge?
There is no admission charge to tour the grounds and visit the craft shops. Some of our shops offer various hands-on craft activities which cost a small fee.
How long does it take to see everything?
It really depends on your interests. A quick walkthrough of the shops and garden areas takes most people a couple of hours. Others, who wish to converse with the artisans, ask questions and learn more about particular areas, can quickly fill up the better part of a day. See also: Self-guided Tours
Do you have activities for children?
Yes, a number of different hands-on activities for children are offered at our various craft shops. For more information, see: Make-your-own Activities.
Are your shops wheelchair accessible?
All of the craft shops, as well as the Homestead Cafe are wheelchair accessible and ADA compliant. Wheelchair accessible restrooms are available in the Craft Village as well.
Do you have wheelchairs available?
Wheelchairs are available. To help us better facilitate your request, please call the Homestead Craft Village (254) 754-9600 in advance, if you anticipate the need of a wheelchair.
Can I bring my pets?
Due to the public nature of the Homestead Craft Village, we ask that visitors not bring pets. We do gladly accommodate service animals that are assisting those with disabilities.
Are there places to stay nearby?
Visitors will find adequate overnight accommodations in local motels and hotels as well as nearby bed and breakfasts.
When you register for any of our classes (at www.sustainlife.org) we will email you a current list of nearby motels and hotels that offer a discount to our students.
