This vaudeville-era theater first opened in 1914 in the Central Texas town of Brownwood. Although designed and operated as a performance space, like many small theaters, it was transitioned into a cinema in the 1920's.

Brownwood was home to the US Army's Camp Bowie during WWII. During the late 30's and early 40's downtown Brownwood's population grew to 100,000 and had 7 cinemas operating at full tilt. As the war ended many of those closed and even the venerable Lyric was converted into a clothing store.

A century after its original opening, the Lyric is once again a home for the performing arts in Brownwood. A herculean restoration effort has restored the theater to its original glory and then some with the addition of modern staging, lighting and sound. Today live theater, musical acts and film once again grace this historic proscenium.

The Hideout Golf Club & Resort

10/10 Excellent

"I liked this little gem in Central Texas. I had seen it before when looking for a halfway point between Houston and Lubbock and came back to it over Thanksgiving break when I needed a place to stay to break up the trip. We had two small kids and dog and this was a great accommodation. We came in at night so we didn't really know what we were looking at and we could tell it was a nice place but it was just different at night. In the morning when I woke up and stepped out onto the porch of my cabin I thought wow this is really cool. My husba nd wished he could have played golf, he even had his golf clubs but we just didn't ha ve time. He thought it would be a great place for a weekend golf getaway with the guys, or the girls. "

10/10 Excellent

"Our family had an absolutely unforgettable stay at Artemis Ranch. From the moment we arrived, the host made us feel genuinely welcomed—warm, attentive, and truly invested in making our experience special.The property itself is breathtaking. The beautiful South African–inspired landscape creates the perfect setting to disconnect from the world and reconnect with nature. The kids absolutely loved exploring the grounds and were blown away by the free-roaming African wildlife—rhinos, giraffes, and so many other incredible animals. Watching their excitement made the trip even more memorable.The facilities are incredible and thoughtfully stocked. They truly have everything you might need—even fishing gear for the stocked ponds. One of the highlights was the private safari tour. You’re taken out in a fully enclosed, climate-controlled side-by-side to explore the 3,000-acre preserve, and it was an experience our whole family will be talking about for years.Another major plus: the roads throughout the ranch are well maintained, so you do not need a 4x4 vehicle. We were able to comfortably drive the property, and the freedom to explore and hike at our own pace made the stay even more enjoyable.We also opted for the personal chef experience, which was a standout highlight of our trip. A big thank you to Kristine, who went above and beyond to help us choose the perfect meals for both the adults and the kids. Her thoughtful recommendations truly complemented the time we spent on "
