    The DeGolyer House and its adjoining DeGolyer Gardens offer a serene and historic visit within extensive grounds. Visitors can partake in guided tours of the DeGolyer House, a 21,000-square-foot estate listed on both the National and Texas Registers of Historic Places, to learn about its rich family history and architectural significance. Tours are available throughout the week, enhancing guests' understanding of this storied residence.

    Adjacent, the DeGolyer Gardens, designed in 1940 by landscape architects Arthur and Marie Berger, span 4.5 acres featuring original and renovated garden elements like the Magnolia Allee, the Sunken Garden, and the Octagonal Fountain.
