This was by far the cleanest places we have stayed! The host really did put a lot of thought and detail into the guest who are staying and we sure appreciate that . From the small things , like having drinks and snacks ready when we arrived to the bigger things , having plenty of towels and super clean house stocked with everything you need. The golf cart was so much fun and an added bonus! We will be staying here the next time we are back that way!

We had a fantastic at the Foxcroft cottage! The house was comfortable and every corner was decorated with detail and thoughtfulness you’d expect from a professional decorator. My kids had a fun time counting and tallying the “foxes” around the property and loved scooting around town on the golf cart. Every detail you could think of was provided… From sleep-sound machines, to handy charging cords, and all amenities to make sure you are comfortable. Oh, and the sweet treats were a huge hit! Especially the locally baked cookies! Definitely recommend staying here if you’re looking for a nice place to stay.

The Cutest Cottage in Smithville!

Ruby's Foxcroft Cottage was absolutely perfect for our weekend away. The hosts had thought of literally anything and everything you might need and the fox theme was so cute. Location was great and walkable to the shops/restaurants in town and it was a quick drive to antique shops in Round Top. Should we make it back to Smithville, we'd stay here again without a doubt!

Pleasantly Surprised, had a wonderful stay!

We really enjoyed our stay at the Foxcroft Cottage!! It was perfectly suited for our group of 5 adults and could easily accommodate 6, decorated very nicely, very quaint and cozy, wonderful modern amenities. Appreciated the little extras, stocked with snacks and drinks and toiletries if we forgot something. Convenient location, right next to a cute bar but a very quiet location, we never heard a thing!! We would definitely stay here again.

Great stay in Smithville

This property is beautiful! The pictures don’t do it justice. The decor and cleanliness is outstanding. And the house has everything you need to be comfortable. They even left us some wonderful homemade pastries to enjoy. The hosts were easy to work with and communicated very well with us. And the golf cart was a fun addition!

Lovely weekend in Smithville

Wonderful property, very clean, updated, comfortable. Lots of thoughtful touches to make our stay easy and relaxing- from toiletries to snacks. Was great to have more than enough towels, access to laundry. We did not use the golf cart but there is one available. Lots of good spaces to visit with our family both inside and out. We would definitely recommend this property and stay here again!

A Gem in Smithville

This property was stunning. Extremely clean, well decorated and comfortable. Front and back yards and porches were inviting. It was evident the the guests needs were a priority with drinks, coffee makers, muffins as a welcome and fire extinguishers, safety locks. Perfect location for local dining and a short drive to Round Top. Hosts were incredibly responsive to all our questions. Thank you for a wonderful experience. We loved it.
