What’s happening

The details
As part of its celebration, the resort is debuting the Lost Pines Landline Project—an interactive installation where guests can record their favorite memories made at the resort using a vintage telephone.
Officials said the recordings will become part of an ongoing archive of guest stories.
The options
New guest packages are also part of the celebration, including a limited-time “20 Years of Lost Pines” package, which starts at $20,000 for up to four guests and is designed as a luxury anniversary experience. The package includes a two-night stay at Litton House, a private tasting, spa experience, golf, a poolside cabana, breakfast with alpacas and a custom boot fitting.

The resort’s bar team also created Maude’s Old Fashioned in honor of the anniversary.
The commemorative cocktail is made with Garrison Brothers Honey Dew Bourbon, Blackland Brown Sugar Bourbon, honey simple syrup, Old World Bitters and a candied pecan garnish.
Each is served with a keepsake recipe card sharing the story behind Maude—the heritage pecan tree that shades Maude’s Bar & Terrace.Maude, a heritage pecan tree at Hyatt Regency Lost Pines Resort & Spa, shades Maude’s Bar & Terrace at the Cedar Creek resort.

The resort’s on-site corral is home to several animals that have become part of the Lost Pines experience, officials said, including alpacas, donkeys, goats, Kunekune pigs and miniature horses.
T-Bone, a resident Texas longhorn who has lived on the property since its early days, also turns 20 this year.
"Known as the ‘king of the animals,’ T-Bone is a familiar face to generations of returning guests and one of the most enduring symbols of the resort,” officials said in a news release.

What they’re saying
“When we opened in 2006, we set out to create a place where guests could slow down,” general manager Irby Morvant said in the release. “Over the years, we’ve watched guests celebrate honeymoons, anniversaries and family milestones here, then return later with children and grandchildren of their own. As we celebrate this milestone anniversary, we wanted to create experiences that honor those memories while giving guests new ways to connect with the resort.”
