Guestbook comments from the owner
Wonderful guest house.
We slept very well and felt comfortable with its cozy feel.
Added bonus was the great dining experience we had at Palmer's.
Plan on returning when I visit the area in May.

The Palmer Guest Cottage was Lovely
We were touring the greater San Marcos area and this cottage was centrally located and walkable to all of downtown. As part of our stay, we were given a complimentary bottle of win and gift card to Palmer's Restaurant. The accomodations were clean, comfortable and we loved the patio. Anytime we visit San Marcos we will book the cottage.
Thank you again for your quick response to our requests!
Amazing
This little gem is amazing!! Location is ideal for walking to the square and the University. I’m so glad I found it as it was perfect for my weekend getaway with my best friend of 39 years. The guest house if well taken care of. Very clean with well appointed amenities including nice lines and towels, comfy bed with great pillows, all shower needs including a hairdryer. The mini fridge and coffeemaker a plus. Almost forgot about the gift of restaurant and bottle of wine, both were great!!!
Will definitely stay again. Thank you Kristin for sharing your amazing space and your hospitality.
Loacation
We had a wonderful weekend at this perfect place. The location was perfect and very comfortable. The Palmer is the perfect get away for a couple to enjoy San Marcos.
Charming, clean & cozy cottage, great location, awesome hosts!
Thank you Kristin for the hospitality! We had such a nice stay! We will be back! We met Monty and told him Palmer’s was delicious and the service was great! Enjoyed our private patio and the courtyard too! You are an awesome Superhost!
Nice cottage in a great location for walking to Texas State, and downtown San Marcos.
We enjoyed the cottage and our meal at Palmer's. Great location..
Charming cottage with courtyard tucked away in the middle of San Marcos.
Loved our time at Palmer's Guest House. It is conveniently located to everything in San Marcos. Kristin was a great host. She communicated prior to our arrival to make sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay - including a nice gift certificate to Palmer's and a bottle of Texas wine. We will definitely be back!
