Great get away spot!

Well appointed, private cottage! Denise and Pat had everything we needed for a great get away to visit our family. The neighborhood was quiet and walkable and Denise and Pat left a long list of local things to do and great eateries. We would love to stay again!

Perfect place

The owl cottage is one of the best places I've stayed at. Communication with Denise was smooth and easy, and she was very quick to respond with any questions I might have had. The location is absolutely perfect, it's located in a nice and quiet neighborhood. I will definitely stay here again the next time I'm in town.

Wonderful Hosts

Denise and Pat were great hosts, and this apartment was very comfortable. My partner had a medical procedure nearby and Denise went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable the entire stay. This is the experience that you hope for when you book a place through VRBO.

Awesome backyard cottage in a great location

Possibly the best appointed vacation rental I've ever stayed at. Located in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood with walking trails to White Rock Lake. It had everything I needed and a very comfortable bed. The layout is absutely perfect for 2 people. Denise is a great host. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. Absolutely recommend.

Nice affordable rental

Pat and Denise were super friendly and welcoming and met us at the door when we got there! The rental was the perfect size for 2 people and so close to so much. Almost every time we went somewhere, we it was less than a 15 minute drive. If we are ever back in Dallas we will definitely be back!

We stayed 6 nights at the Cozy Owl. It was perfect for my husband and I while we were visiting family. Denise and Pat were awesome hosts! The cottage was very clean and comfortable and had all the amenities we required and more. We will definitely book again.
