About this property

Inviting 100-yr-old updated & roomy cottage w/deck

Summary:
Whether you're hosting a girlfriend retreat or a family vacay, this comfy cottage is just the place. Enjoy a glass of wine (or 2, we're not judging) on the deck, gather around the fire pit, grill, karaoke, play board games - there's lots of room for lots of fun!

By car, you are less than:
5 mins from Historic Downtown Palestine
10 mins from TX State Railroad Palestine Depot (check out the Polar Express if you're in town mid-Nov -Dec.)
10 mins from Davey Dogwood Park
30 mins from Lake Palestine

The Space:
Each of the 3 bedrooms features a queen bed with a memory foam mattress. Both bathrooms are equipped with a shower and tub. The home comes nicely furnished with 50" 4k Smart TVs and fireplace heaters in the living room and master bedroom, fully stocked kitchen, dishwasher, full size fridge, coffee bar, laundry room, outdoor seating around the fire pit, and BBQ grill.

Guest Access:
Large horseshoe drive for easy entrance and exit - perfect spot to park your RV (no electric or sewer connection available).

You will enjoy access to the entire cottage and outdoor areas.

The Neighborhood:
The cottage is located in the most convenient area in town for proximity to food (fast food and sit down restaurants are less than 5 minutes away), shopping (Walmart is les than 5 minutes in one direction and downtown vintage boutiques are less than 5 miles in the other direction), and the railroad.

Getting Around:
If you're planning on visiting Palestine, TX, you'll probably want a vehicle. The city doesn't have public transportation. Ubers are available, but not that plentiful.

Other Things to Note:
The cottage is suitable for up to 6 six, which can include a family of 6 or 3 couples.

In an effort to maintain a secure premises, the home is equipped with two exterior cameras (one on the front door and one in back above the deck). The cameras are ONLY on the exterior, and there are NO cameras on the interior.

Interaction with Guests:
While I won't be available in person, I'm just a phone call away if you need assistance with something that's gone wrong.

This is one of the best VRBO experiences we've ever had! Amazing hosts that went above and beyond for us! The property is absolutely adorable and was beautifully decorated for Christmas. Beds were comfortable and plenty of space inside and outside for our large family!

Charming Cottage

Cozy little cottage located very close to downtown Palestine with great shops and restaurants. The house has been recently updated and was perfect for three couples. Our host was easy to contact and took good care of us….check-in and check-out was very easy.

The amenities in the kitchen and bathrooms were great!It was very well decorated - loved the Christmas decorations! Although the layout was a little quirky (it's a 100 year old house :-) ), it was great for our family gatherings while providing the space to get away from all the family when you need to. The back yard was also awesome. We did have a heating issue, but Theo mitigated that as quickly as he could have.

Wonderful experience

The home is very welcoming! Everything was beyond what we expected! We will hopefully be able to rent yearly around this time of the year and during summer! By far the best VRBO we have stayed in.

We had a great stay at the cottage! The listing is accurate and everything was as expected, the house was clean, and we enjoyed the back deck and yard. It is off a fairly busy street but it didn't pose a problem for us and we felt very safe in the area. We were visiting family so we spent the day at the house watching football, grilling, and hanging out. It was perfect for that. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the house and would stay there again!
