We have received a multitude of comments about our historical neighborhood, where each cottage,/home has been built individually under architecture in the 40s. The people in the historical Azalea district are very house-proud and take good care of their lawns and gardens which enhances the charm of these vintage houses. We are always looking for ways to improve our guest experience, so if you need anything at all during your stay, please reach out! We only live 7 minutes away.
We have been married 45 years, have 3 grown sons and one little granddaughter. We moved from The Netherlands 4 years ago to take care of our granddaughter. We now love living in Tyler, Texas. Our second passion is keeping our luxury cottage retreat in top shape. My husband and middle son care for the lawn and do most of the maintenance. The list of everything they have done to the cottage in the last 4 years is very, very long! But our guests say the results are fantastic and we love sharing it with our guests.
この宿泊施設のオーナーになった理由
Tylers historical Azalea district was built starting in the mid 40s. These solid brick cottages (with crawl spaces underneath) were built under architecture for veterans returning from the war. Most of these modest cottages have been added on to, however our cottage remains one of the few still in original size, a modest 1200 square feet. The lay-out is amazing, with both bedrooms almost equal size and seperated by the bathroom for privacy. The open kitch/diningroom/living room gives a feeling of space.

The almost 80-year-old live oak trees in the front yard, that were planted in 1946. They shade the cottage during the summer and provide shelter for birds and squirrels. The tall and abundant windows make the cottage light and airy.
