Carol's cottage was perfect for my needs. I had my dachshunds with me, and I was able to just open the back door and let them out into the secured yard. The landscaping was really cute, the pool sparkling clean, and she even left a bottle of wine out for our enjoyment! Clean, pleasant stay.

The cottage was incredible when we stayed. If I could give this a better rating than excellent I would!! Carol was so wonderful as well. Her yard is beautiful and she had lots of toys and a sand box for our grandkids to play in!! The pool was a nice added touch as well!! We will definitely stay here again as we frequent Kerrville often to visit the grandkids. Thanks so much Carol for making our stay so comfortable!!

Very clean, comfortable cottage and a beautiful property. Kitchen was well equipped and the home was well furnished. The backyard is fully fenced and pet friendly. It has a nice pool area with a patio in a nice adjacent backyard area with cushioned chairs, tables and lounge chairs. There is a barbecue grill and outdoor fire pit. The hosts graciously included a complimentary bottle of local wine. My only suggestion to add to guest comfort would be a couple of new pillows in the bedroom and perhaps a Pyrex measuring cup. Excellent accommodations!

Beautiful, cozy rental. Everything was super clean, and owner/management had thought of every detail a visitor might need. We enjoyed our stay and hope to return next year. We particularly enjoyed morning coffee sitting out on the nice back covered porch: comfy outdoor chairs and privacy of the pretty little backyard! Lovely quiet neighborhood!
