Still Haven Silo Stays
Permit-gated Phase 1 capital raise: $85,000
Still Haven raises Phase 1 capital to convert two existing steel grain silos into two short-term rental guest suites. The site is not finished lodging today, and major construction spend is gated behind written site rights, floodplain/CoC path, OSSF design, permit review, inspections, and Williamson County authorization.
Explore Still Haven
Covers utilities, conversion, access work, and launch readiness for the two Phase 1 silo suites.
The Phase 1 plan uses 65% occupancy across two silo suites.
Phase 2 is not proposed until Phase 1 produces 12 months of operating results.
The build
Phase 1 is a defined two-silo rural hospitality build.
Still Haven is a permit-gated rural hospitality development near Hutto, Texas, in unincorporated Williamson County. Phase 1 raises $85,000 to convert two existing steel grain silos into two short-term rental guest suites, supported by site prep, utility extensions, OSSF design, parking/access improvements, shared outdoor amenities, permitting, survey/engineering, and contingency reserve.
Two existing steel grain silos
Phase 1 starts with physical structures already on site.
Two STR guest suites
The initial operating scope is two bookable silo suites, not a full campus.
Site prep and utilities
Final water and electrical extensions remain scoped inside the Phase 1 work.
OSSF pathway
New OSSF design requires a licensed designer and Williamson County review.
Arrival, parking, deck
Access, parking, and shared outdoor amenity work are part of the budget.
Permit-gated spend
Major spend waits for written site rights, floodplain/CoC path, OSSF design, permit review, inspections, and authorization.
Permit path
Phase 1 is permit-gated.
Phase 1 is permit-gated. Still Haven will not claim launch readiness or begin major construction spend until the Land Use Agreement, floodplain/Certificate of Compliance pathway, OSSF design, applicable permits, and inspection requirements are confirmed. Existing water and electrical context reduce development friction, but final OSSF placement, setbacks, and system type must be confirmed by a licensed designer and Williamson County review.
Project Status
Phase 1 active — site not open yet.
Secured facts and current proof appear first. Pending items and summary visuals stay clearly labeled.
Site control and physical direction are already established in Central Texas.
Existing silo structures are already in place for the two-silo conversion path.
Entity formation and tax registration are complete before Phase 1 capital is applied.
Founder status is already supportable through Texas Veterans Commission verification.
Operations still depend on funded utilities, approvals, inspections, and launch controls.
Timing remains subject to approvals, vendor sequencing, weather, and readiness checks.
Phase 1 Operating Plan
Phase 1 Operating Plan
Phase 1 is planned around two silo suites in rural Hutto, Texas. The current model uses a $175 nightly rate and 65% occupancy assumption, with no ancillary revenue included. The goal is to keep the first build focused, measurable, and expansion-ready only after real operating results are established.
Use of Funds
