Super Pet Friendly
This cottage was beautiful and in a very quiet setting. It was very clean and had everything we could ask for. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.With difficulties finding places to accept our larger dogs, this cottage welcomed them, which is very important to us.

Peaceful and Serene
This is a perfect getaway place to leave everything behind for a few days. Our hosts provided us with everything and more to make our stay pleasant and stress free. I would have liked to have a tv in the bedrooms only because I usually sleep with it on and turns off with timer set. We definitely plan on coming back again. Easy access to everything. Great restaurants. Went to Roadhouse, Jalisco’s Mex Restaurant, Southside Market BBQ, all had excellent food. 12 miles away from Bastrop Historic District, enjoyed it. Thank you to our hosts James and Wendy..

Beautiful secluded location
We loved it tho not a real good place for handicaped. My daughter is in a wheelchair parttime. The ramp was good but no other handicaped accesible features (but was not advertised as such anyway) my sister and niece enjoyed walking the lovely trails and the cottage was exceptionally well equiped. We really enjoyed our stay.
