Cosmos Cottage
Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
This 1890s farmhouse is the perfect getaway for two in the Texas Hill Country! Enjoy the cosmos flowers from summer to late fall in the surrounding gardens. Relax at this peaceful home and enjoy the Hill Country, where you can unwind in the backyard and enjoy the beautiful Texas sky. Be sure to venture into downtown Fredericksburg, where you will find excellent restaurants, tasting rooms, antique shops, and historic sites. Sample the renowned local wine at one of the many vineyards and tasting rooms in and around town, or join a wine-tasting tour that will transport you safely from vineyard to vineyard.
This family-friendly vacation rental is a historic home but has a shabby chic interior that you are sure to fall in love with. Inspired by simpler times, the rooms welcome you with cottage-style furnishings, vintage textiles, and gleaming hardwood floors. Watch the horses at the Gillespie County Race Track.
Things to Know
We’re excited to inform you that this unit utilizes a comfortable style of bed-making known as Triple Sheeting. Triple Sheeting is proven to be more hygienic and is used by five-star hotels worldwide. It consists of a fitted sheet, a flat sheet, a blanket, and finally, a decorative top sheet. Due to this change, the pictures for this home may not accurately represent the bedding that will appear during your stay. This has not affected any other amenities or the amount of beds available.
The fireplace is not operational.
Parking notes: There is free parking available for 2 vehicles.
Please note: this home resides in a noise-sensitive area and the owners participate in our Good Neighbor protection program. Our smart home technology will alert our team if excessive decibel or occupancy levels are detected, allowing us to reach out directly with a reminder of maximum occupancy and quiet hours. This technology is privacy compliant, and only monitors the presence of decibels and devices-not any personal conversation or information. Thank you for supporting our efforts to be good neighbors!
Damage waiver: The total cost of your reservation for this Property includes a nightly damage waiver fee, plus tax if applicable (the “Damage Waiver”). (A discount may be applied for stays of 28 nights or longer, if permitted.) The Damage Waiver covers you for up to $3,000 of accidental damage to the Property or its contents (such as furniture, fixtures, and appliances) as long as you report the incident to the host prior to checking out. The Damage Waiver fee eliminates the need for a traditional security deposit.
More information can be downloaded from the "Rental Agreement" on the checkout page.
Due to local laws or HOA requirements, guests must be at least 21 years of age to book. Guests under 21 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian for the duration of the reservation.
