Don't let traffic problems stop you from coming to Summerfest.

Take the I10 to Columbus then north on Hwy. 71 through LaGrange and
Bastrop.  I think it is a pretty drive and you get to I35 well south of
the 290 intersection.

The hotel is south of 290 so you never need to go that far north unless
you choose to.

If 290 is a more convenient way for you to leave Houston, turn south on
Hwy. 21 at Paige then hit Hwy. 71 at Bastrop.  That is a great drive
through the "lost pines" on 21.

Come on over.
