We enjoyed our stay at Carol's Cottage. The home was clean, Carol was very helpful, and the yard was perfect for our small dogs. We look forward to returning in the future. It is a beautiful area and it had everything we needed for our four night visit. Thanks, Russ and Gay

Very clean, comfortable cottage and a beautiful property. Kitchen was well equipped and the home was well furnished. The backyard is fully fenced and pet friendly. It has a nice pool area with a patio in a nice adjacent backyard area with cushioned chairs, tables and lounge chairs. There is a barbecue grill and outdoor fire pit. The hosts graciously included a complimentary bottle of local wine. My only suggestion to add to guest comfort would be a couple of new pillows in the bedroom and perhaps a Pyrex measuring cup. Excellent accommodations!

Beautiful, cozy rental. Everything was super clean, and owner/management had thought of every detail a visitor might need. We enjoyed our stay and hope to return next year. We particularly enjoyed morning coffee sitting out on the nice back covered porch: comfy outdoor chairs and privacy of the pretty little backyard! Lovely quiet neighborhood!

Lovely cottage, terrific host, fantastic neighborhood

Carol is a premier host! We loved her cozy cottage and fenced-in back yard with a covered porch and lovely views for us and convenience for our dog. I’ve already booked a return trip and highly recommend. The neighborhood is a very special pocket of Kerrville with an artsy flair and families of deer roaming about.

It was our second time staying at this home. It's a perfect place to relax and enjoy all the beautiful birds and evening visits from deer. We loved doing day trips to Fredericksburg, Luckenbach, Hunt and Ingram and coming back to Carol's Cottage for a dip in the pool. The house is so comfortable and fully stocked. The beds were perfect! We were fortunate to visit with the property owner's granddog, Hero. Will definitely stay again soon!
