Country hitmaker Doug Stone brings his acoustic show to the Red Rooster IceHouse in Hawkins on Friday, October 2, about 30 minutes from the property.

Doug Stone is a country music singer with a string of 1990s hits that defined the era's Nashville sound. On Friday, October 2, 2026, he plays an acoustic set at the Red Rooster IceHouse in Hawkins, about 30 minutes southwest of the property. The acoustic format is a chance to hear his songs stripped down in an intimate icehouse setting, a long way from the arena tours he headlined in the 1990s.

The artist

Doug Stone broke into country music in 1990 with his debut album that produced four Top 10 singles, including "I'd Be Better Off (In a Pine Box)" and "A Jukebox with a Country Song." His string of hits continued through the decade with songs like "In a Different Light," "These Lips Don't Know How to Say Goodbye," and "Warning Labels." Stone's voice is unmistakable, a smooth baritone that carried ballads and up-tempo songs alike. He was inducted into the Georgia Music Hall of Fame and continues to tour, often in acoustic settings that let his voice and songwriting take center stage.

The drive from the property

County Road 1070 to Hawkins is about 30 minutes via US-80 and US-271. The October date means the drive happens in cool fall air, with the sun setting earlier and the East Texas landscape turning toward autumn. For anyone evaluating the property, an October acoustic show at a local icehouse is the kind of thing that makes the area feel like a real place to live, not just a piece of land.
