After your long travel to Texas, come stay at Rainbow Courts Motel in Rockdale Texas. Joan and Dan Ratliff bought the Rainbow Courts bed and breakfast Texas spot from Joan's mother, Marjorie Crockett, in 1992. Joan and Dan promptly began renovation in several of the cottages. Since they travel a lot on business, it was natural that they would incorporate the most feasible and inviting features of the hotels in which they've stayed. The personal touch they've contributed to the Rainbow is beyond any I've seen over the years. If you can be intoxicated by comfort - lulled by loving attention, charm and generosity, then, the Rainbow Courts Motel, after your long and exhautingTexas travelng, is the spot for you- a truely 'comforting' experience! The cottages - some original ones - have been refurbished and in some instances completely redone with the most beautiful furniture - Ethan Allen and Thomasville, along with some of the original and 'second wave' furniture from the 1920's. There are magnificent prints on the walls and beautiful fabrics for windows, bedspreads, chairs and sofas. There is every convenience. One cottage with its own private porch has a wet bar which has been build into an antique, marble topped stand dresser.

Right now, in Rockdale, we have one of the most charming motel bed and breakfast vacation spots I've seen, operated by two very gracious, charming people with ideas, energy and enough pure love of history and the good life to translate the future plans of the Rainbow into Milam County's Premier hotel bed and breakfast. Rockdale couldn't be more pleased!
