About this property
Love of the View - Glen Rose Luxury Cottage
This beautiful 740 square foot luxury cottage has breathtaking panoramic views of Chalk Mountain and is close to the antique shops and eateries in the historic town of Glen Rose, Texas.
Relax and breathe deeply as you enter onto this 30 acre property. This unique luxury cottage was designed and decorated to reflect the look and feel of a fine Texas Ranch House combining Old-Texas charm with an open layout. This is an architectural gem, with gorgeous and plentiful modern amenities.
Outside the wide back porch offers a cool spot of shade overlooking a magnificent view for relaxing and looking out over the surrounding hills. In the evenings, it's a perfect place to gather with your love one or alone to take in the sunset. It's far from the lights of the city as you will be able to see the stars at night.
Located at the owners private home a gorgeous swimming pool was completed in 2015, a short 3 minute walk around the hill from the cottage. Guest may enjoy pool time 10:00 am to 4:00pm. If owners happen to be home during your rental, they will give you complete privacy should you choose to use the pool. Feel free to come relax around the pool and enjoy the amazing views. Additional pool usage times maybe available upon request. There is a private hot tub right beside the cottage that you can use anytime. Just take the cover off adjust the temperature and please turn temperature back down and put cover back on.
No kids allowed, sorry no exceptions. Feel free to visit our other property, 3-Shy Ranch, where kids and large groups can be accommodated.

We enjoyed our visit very much. We went there to relax and between the sun and the water in the pool and the hot tub, we succeeded. The cabin was very nicely furnished with obvious care given to the selection of furniture and decorations. If we’re lucky, we’ll stay there again sometime.
Great peacefull property. Everything was as described. The scenery was great. The hot tub was an added bonus after a day of MTB and hiking. Was a great place to get away and relax.
Wonderful property and a wonderful host. Everything from start to finish was a five star experience. Close to town but not too far out of town. Awesome view from the back patio while enjoying your morning coffee.
Cute & comfortable cabin overlooking the Chalk Mountain valley. Cabin was as described and more. Laquita was quick to respond when I had a question. I’ve already recommended this property to friends.
Stayed Friday - Sunday we brought everything so we didn’t have to leave. Enjoyed being unplugged from everything, relaxing in the hot tub, pool, back porch. The vies are wonderful, cool breezes kept it cool. All the amenities you need inside, nice and cool. Comfortable and safe place for us to unwind from our busy lives and celebrate 31 years together, very private! Take Ice!

Lovely getaway
My son wants to move to the country after this beatiful experience! It is clear LaQuita put her passion into “making something out of nothing” when you enjoy her cottage. I would love to come back & spend more time here!

It was a pleasure to have you stay with us. Thank you for communicating so well with me and taking such great care of our property. So glad your son got to experience a little bit of the country and our beautiful miniature donkeys. We would love to have you back anytime.
Great, comfy cabin with beautiful views off the back porch. Located in the front of the cabin is a pergola with table and a private hot tub. There is a walk to the pool that is directly behind the owners house,
but we brought a wagon and it was very manageable to get to the pool with our stuff in about 2 minutes. We had a great time and the owners were very nice. Would recommend and visit this location again!
When you visit this secluded cabin in the hills between Glen Rose, TX and Stephenville, TX you will understand why it’s called “Love of the View!” The views from the porch are breathtaking and the cabin was decorated like something out of a magazine! The host LaQuita was great! We look forward to returning very soon!

What amazing guest! I wish everyone was like you two. I loved that you communicated with me and respected the property. So glad you'll enjoyed it. Would love to have you back anytime.
Beautifully decorated cottage with a wonderful view
This cottage was a great place to celebrate our 48th anniversary. Our stay in this beautiful cottage near Glen Rose was both relaxing and fun. Eating our meals on the back balcony with a beautiful view, relaxing in our personal hot tub, enjoying the owners beautiful pool, feeding the goats and donkeys, touring the wildlife park, downtown Glen Rose and Dinosaur State Park and enjoying local restaurants all made our celebration trip very memorable. Our host was very friendly and made sure everything was just right.

Great view
The view is what makes this place nice. The cabin was cozy and nicely decorated. The road noise was a distraction. The hot tub was slimy feeling and foamy so wouldn't use it again which was one of the main reasons I wanted to stay here. The miniature donkeys were cute.

Hi Rachel - we appreciate your honest feedback. The hot tub is brand new as of October 2021 and are still working on the chemical balance. We want our guests to have an enjoyable experience so never hesitate to reach out should you have an issue during your stay.
So much more than you can see in the pictures, the view is exquisite. If you’re looking to get away and enjoy some peace and quiet, this location provides that and so much more!!!
You can sit on the back deck for hours at a time, well, I could. So much better than the NG channel.
The hostess is as exquisite as the property. Enjoy.
As a couple with grown children and an elderly parent that we take care of in our home, get aways are uncommon so we try to make it worth it...this was definitely worth it!! We only got 2 days but those 2 days were just what we needed. Privacy of the cabin is great! Description of property is 100% correct. We are Jeep people and drive when we are out. Lots of beautiful back roads, river views, etc. just flat out amazing trip!

I am so glad you enjoyed our little piece of heaven and hope you will return in the future. Coming soon is a backyard makeover where we are adding another great place to sit and relax and enjoy the view. Yes, there are lots of great back roads around Glen Rose to drive on and seen the beautiful scenery You were wonderful guest and I appreciate all the communication.
Disappointed about fire ban so no grill. Please let people know. We brought food to prepare.

My apologies that I did not let you know prior to your arrival about the fire ban. With the whole state of Texas in a moderate drought to severe drought conditions I just can't take the risk of any fires. My apologies for not communicating beforehand. I will defiantly let future guest know.

What makes this property unique
If you need to take your significant other somewhere to impress him or her then this is the place for you. If your not a camper and don't care for a rustic cabin then this is the place for you. If you want to escape by yourself and enjoy the beautiful view while sitting on the porch drinking your coffee and reading your favorite book, then this is the place for you. If you just got married or perhaps celebrating your anniversary this is the place for you. Maybe you just need time to reconnect with one another. A few days of rest and relaxation here will let you recharge. There isn't a better place to do that at!
No kids allowed, sorry no exceptions. Feel free to visit our other property, 3-Shy Ranch, where kids and large groups can be accommodated.
