Behind the inn is an area shared with other guests. The back yard features a charcoal-fired BBQ pit for cowboy-style feasts, an outdoor fireplace around which you can share stories, and plenty of furniture. After dark, string lights give the back yard a special sparkle. You'll have direct access to the shaded porch up front with Adirondack chairs, a porch swing, and a great view of a vintage Wild West-era carriage on the property. Small, well-behaved dogs are allowed at this pet-friendly and kid-friendly rental. First-come, first-served covered parking is provided for the inn rooms, and additional street parking is available.
The Bandera Suite is decorated with antique pieces that evoke the cowboy era, and they work together with items of modern comfort!

Had a great stay at this fantastic property. It is well described in the write up and walkable to Main Street. It’s across the street from a great live music place.

Thank you for the wonderful review! We're so glad you had a great stay and enjoyed the location, especially being so close to Main Street and live music. We'd love to host you again soon!
Overall the stay was pleasant. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. However, there were still some hand towels left by the previous tenant. But everything else was nice.

Thank you for your feedback! We're glad you enjoyed the peaceful setting and overall stay. We apologize for the oversight with the towels and will make sure it’s addressed moving forward. Hope to host you again!
Our first impression driving up to the house was we really lucked out. My wife and I both love older houses charm and this one did not disappoint. The tall ceilings, spacious rooms, and clawfoot bath tub were inviting. You also have an entire kitchen at your disposal. The back yard is also large with multiple sitting areas. The location is perfect for walking to restaurants or shops. You are also in close proximity to ride the Twisted Sisters for motorcycle enthusiasts like us. We loved everything about staying here. The Carriage Inn is the only place we want to stay at when visiting Bandera and the surrounding areas. We will definitely be back.
