About this property

Hill Cottage | Historic and Charming

Cain City was founded as one of the stops along the Fredericksburg and Great Northern Railway. It was a thriving town and until just about 30 years ago part of the old bank was still standing just a short distance from Hill Cottage.

Located only a few miles from Fredericksburg this delightful quaint, little cottage boasts phenomenal views. The yard has a wonderful array of birds. The outside patio has comfy chairs and charcoal grill and is ideal for watching our feathered friends, rabbits, deer, and all the other nature so abundant to the area.

The Adam's family built Hill Cottage in 1912, and also were founders of Cain City. Pine floors, pristine white trim, fluffy white lace curtains, and rich rose walls enhance the playful mix of patterns in the floral sofa and plaid armchair creating a warm and inviting glow in the living room. Enjoy the Direct TV with DVD player. Two bedrooms (both with queen-size beds) are found on both sides of the bath. Comfy reading chairs are found in both bedrooms along with antique dressers and chests. The bath has a claw foot tub with shower.

A completely equipped country kitchen has a range/oven, refrigerator, microwave, toaster and coffeemaker. The adjacent dining room has a table for four and antique china cabinet. Windows are conveniently arranged to enjoy the countryside views. The large patio and screened-in porch both have comfy chairs to sit and relax. Broadway Cottage is next door and also sleeps four—makes a perfect getaway for eight people.

$27.00*/extra person after the first 3 in the group/night
*plus 13% tax

Please Note: You are renting a cabin in the Hill Country which means you may encounter wildlife (Snakes, Deer, Racoons, ETC). Please be aware of your surroundings, and take caution while driving at night. You may also encounter the various bugs, spiders, scorpions and mice that live in the country AND sometimes do make their way inside. All properties do utilize pest control services on a regular basis BUT this does not guarantee no pests or bugs will be visible.

Find somewhere else to stay
I don’t know where to begin. Obviously the photos of this house are quite old. The ripped screen at the entry door where we were to get the key was the first clue. Refrigerator door handle was filthy, rugs had not been vacuumed either. Of the 4 exterior doors, only two had deadbolt locks on them, so we never felt safe. The sofa looked like someone just woke up from sleeping on it with the throw piled in a heap on it, so we never sat on any of the furniture except for the wooden chairs in the dining room. The curtain was falling down from the window behind the sofa. The toilet had so much Lyme deposit, it didn’t look sanitary, and the seat was broken. The shower curtains had a significant build up of soap scum on them so we never used the shower. All drains were caked with Lyme deposits, in clouding kitchen sink. Then we checked our bed sheets, and discovered human and animal hair in between the sheets, both pubic hairs and long hairs. We slept on top of them. We thought we might sit on the nice rocking chairs on the front porch, but they had not been cleaned all winter, so we couldn’t sit there either. Needless to say, we could not get out of there fast enough. I do not know where all the positive reviews came from, but they clearly didn’t stay there this year. I asked the manager for a refund as soon as I saw the condition of the house, and they agreed to refund only the $25 cleaning fee. Avoid this place like the plague! And watch your little ones…decon mouse traps.

Hill Country
Loved the location. Comfortable beds, furnished well. Kitchen was well equipped. The bathtub and floor are dangerous. Unstable, slippery, and no handrails. One of our party could not safely use it.

We ended up staying a weekend with a cold front and we got to enjoy the fire pit outside with wood provided! Instructions were clear and house was cozy. Would stay again!
