The Cowboy Cottage is the perfect getaway for couples that enjoy nature and the countryside. A gated entrance will lead you to the small community of houses that are visible from the Cowboy Cottage, but still far enough away to keep your space quiet, peaceful, and private. Explore the country setting full of nearby hiking trails or gaze upon the horse pasture with friendly horses that will come right up to the back patio for some gorgeous photo opportunities.
What do you love about this space? Enjoy your coffee out on the fenced-in back patio while the horses come by to say good mornin'. Open the screened windows to let the country breeze flow throughout the house while enjoying afternoon views of rolling hills during lunch. Cozy up in the evening to enjoy dinner or smores over the firepit before letting the sounds of country woods serenade you to sleep.
This newer cottage features gorgeous wood flooring, a newly stained wooden porch and patio, and professionally-installed security cameras to ensure you always feel safe.
The kitchen space includes an oven, stove, fridge, microwave, washer, dryer, dishware, cookware, and a Keurig coffee maker with a stock of coffee pods. The Cowboy Cottage also includes firewood to use upon arrival.
Feel free to watch Netflix, Disney+, and other streaming services using your log-in on the smart TV.
What will guests have access to? Guests have access to the entire home, grounds, and trails nearby. This is a brand-new setup with landscaping still being developed. If you get mud on your shoes, please take or wipe them off at the door.
A 5-minute walk away, Shoal Creek Nature Preserve allows visitors to explore 298 acres of fallow fields, mature upland hardwood stands, and scenic creek bottoms in Lauderdale County. Two hiking/biking trails totaling 4.3 miles give hikers views of Shoal Creek, Indiancamp Creek, Lawson Branch, and Jones Branch.
Though the horses do come close to the back patio, the pasture is closed to guests for the safety of the horses and the guests themselves. We know the horses are adorable, but we do ask that you do not feed or touch the horses.
Little things guests should know: - Cowboy Cottage does allow food and grocery deliveries.
- Bikes to use on the trails are available to rent for your stay through the host for $25 each. Must bring your own helmet!
- Pets welcome for an additional $100 fee.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Cowboy Cottage was absolutely lovely. The location is beautiful and the house was immaculately clean! Everything was communicated clearly too, and the hosts even left little goodies! Even though I only stayed one night, I would happily go back and stay more!
This place was the perfect spot for us. The host was a great communicator and very hospitable. We will definitely be staying here again on our next visit.
Couldnt ask for a better place and people!! Wish we had this in several other locations for my employees to stay long term in.

We are glad to host any of your awesome employees!! We have enjoyed Danny’s.company. Thankful to have such a great guest. Thank you for choosing the Cowboy Cottage!
I highly recommend this place. It was absolutely beautiful and very safe a secure feeling. It was very clean and up to date. The host was very friendly and helpful also. We come up once a year for a family reunion and this will now be our go to place to stay every year.
This is our go to VRBO in the Florence area. Clean, comfy and has everything you need. Property is beautiful and so secure. Very easy to relax and enjoy.
Hosts make all the difference in the world. When you are away from home, a welcoming/friendly/available host (like ours) facilitates relaxation and enjoyment.
Being close to town but in the country makes this delightful location a perfect stay.
Loved the little house. It was perfect for a couple and so peaceful. We loved getting to watch the horses and cows. It was far enough from the city to see the stars at night but close enough to not be too far away from activities and events.

We are so glad you enjoyed the cowboy cottage!! We love it out here as well.. come back and visit us anytime!! Y'all are excellent guests!!🤠
My boyfriend and I were traveling over for a wedding and needed a quick place to stay. We found this one and absolutely loved it. We were able to bring our golden retriever (Benny) and he also loved it and enjoyed looking at the horses. The owner also was super helpful and quick to respond when we needed any help. She also immediately called to inform us that my boyfriend forgot something and offered to ship it to us! 10/10, would definitely stay again and recommend to anyone needing a place to stay and feel like home.
We needed a place to stay for a month, while our house was under renovation. When we arrived it was so much more than we expected!! It was the calm oasis we needed after a stressful time of moving and renovating! The property is amazing, it’s quiet, safe and peaceful. I will recommend to all my friends & family & might even come back for a get away! So much better than a hotel or any other VRBO I’ve been to.
My husband and I wanted a weekend getaway and this property did not disappoint! Beautiful, CLEAN, home with gorgeous view. Convenient to town with much to do! The host was easy to contact and quick to respond. Everything you would need was provided. They even left us a few snacks and some homemade cookies! We can’t wait to come back again!
