The pergola
A covered seating area with hanging plants — a good place to eat outside or wind down after work.
The courtyard
The reason you stay
A shared yard between two houses, with a pergola to sit under, a fire pit, a small putting green, and a charcoal grill.
About the inn
Two houses, one yard, a half-street address.
The 1820 Inn is named for its address: 1820 Avenue O ½. The “1820” is a street number, not a year, and we never suggest the houses were built then.
The inn is two neighboring houses — one painted light blue, one with green trim — around a courtyard and a back lawn. Ploy looks after every guest personally. She is based nearby in the Houston area and is a text or call away at 409-255-0930.
Our first suite is open for monthly stays. More suites are coming in 2027.
Outside
A yard meant for lingering
Fire pit & putting green
A small green and a stone fire pit under the trees, just off the lawn. Low-key, not a resort amenity.
The patio
Chairs on brick paving beside the light blue house, with a charcoal grill for evenings in.
