Our second time staying here and we love it. Nicely decorated, excellent location. Easy and short walk to a great coffee shop and food truck area in the mornings. Love the reverse osmosis system in the kitchen for perfect pure drinking water, and the memory foam mattress is very comfortable to sleep on. We will be back again for sure.

This is a charming property that is very thoughtfully appointed. We enjoyed sitting out in the backyard by the firepit and playing some Cornhole. We took a lovely stroll to the nearby town center and browsed the variety of cute shops. Because we stayed over Thanksgiving the town center was beautifully decorated with Christmas lights in the evening. The host was wonderful, always quick to respond to any question. I would definitely stay again.

Quick Stay in Johnson City

This house is in a great location in Johnson City. I needed a place to stay while working on some property nearby. The house is very comfortable, good parking, good location, and you can walk to several shops and places to eat.

Charming Cottage

Perfect location for visiting the wineries on 290. We liked being in Johnson City rather than Fredericksburg. Enjoyed sitting in the back yard in the evening. Inside is updated and had everything we needed. A very enjoyable stay!

Overall my stay was very pleasant! The property was clean and as advertised. Everything looked like the pictures except the lawn was fairly overgrown. The location was ideal and within easy walking distance of downtown. I greatly enjoyed my stay and would recommend this property to anyone looking to stay in Johnson City.

We stayed in the Little Dipper for one night while attending a wedding close by. Joe was very easy to communicate with and always provided answers to my questions promptly! The house was easy to check in, extremely clean and quite charming! The coffee provided was a thoughtful touch and we enjoyed sipping it in the large back yard in comfortable seating Sunday morning. All the beds were comfy and the a/c worked perfectly on a relatively warm October night. Thanks Joe, we would be happy to return as well as recommend Little Dipper to our friends!
