Humbled by your wonderful review Erik! We strive for perfection and we appreciate you noticing. Glad you enjoyed the location and your overall stay. Thank you for your highest recommendation!
Adorable cottage in a super convenient part of Denton. Looks just as pictures reflect. Beds are very comfy. Host was kind and easy to reach. We visit Denton often and will definitely book again.
The cottage was so comfortable and had everything we needed. Our hosts were available if needed and responded quickly. Easy walk to the square and great coffee across the street! Highly recommend.

So happy you found the cottage to be enjoyable, comfortable and convenient to some of Denton‘s best amenities, like the downtown Square and the wonderful coffee shop across the street. Come back anytime!
Excellent cottage with updated kitchen, bathrooms, and a fantastic location. Hosts communicated quickly and everything was available from day one. Great guest binder with clear home instructions and what a great cottage, I said it again! Would stay there again and highly recommend it. Thank you Lauren.
Was not able to stay at Lauren's property because of the coronavirus situation, but she was exceptionally gracious in refunding the full amount of my reservation cost (which I never requested or expected). Will certainly make it a priority to reserve her cottage again when things calm down and get back to normal. Thanks, Lauren!

Thanks Jeff. Even though your work trip was postponed last-minute, of course I was willing to offer you a refund considering the situation. Take care and looking forward to having you back!
The property was clean, inviting, and perfect for our needs. We didn't end up using the kitchen other than light breakfast, but it was well stocked and easy to find things we needed. The beds were super comfortable; we slept very well. The bedding was cosy and the shower had plenty of hot water, which turned out to be important as the weather turned cold and rainy while we were there. The property is thoroughly remodeled and has everything one might need.
One note for tech people. The living room tv has all the streaming services available, but it does not allow "casting" or "mirroring" from your phone or other device. This is not a problem, just something to know for planning. My husband brought our Fire Stick and it connected to the tv easily through a spare HDMI input and we had all our streaming accounts instantly available and already set up.

Thank you Susan! Glad you enjoyed your stay and were super comfortable. Happy you appreciated all the work we put into the cottage with the remodel! Thanks for the tips on casting. We will see if we can add that!
My daughter and I stayed in this home while visiting from NY. We were staying due to some stressful circumstances so it was very important to stay somewhere that we felt comfortable and could sleep well. That we did! This home was everything we could have wanted and needed. The beds and sitting space in living room were so comfortable. We were able to gather with a few family members for breakfast in the dining room/kitchen bar area and then watch movies together in the evening. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed including some extra goodies that Lauren left for us. The home is GORGEOUS! The location was perfect for our needs...close to the square. I was a bit concerned about off street lodging but we were pleasantly surprised with how quiet it was.
We slept well and were able to socialize comfortably while taking care of family needs. Also, it was a quick trip to the square for happy hour at Hannah's. Love Hannah's on the square!
The home is meticulously clean, including offering clean safe products (which I especially appreciated), very well appointed, and simply felt like home to us. We had a comfortable lovely stay and highly recommend this if you're in the Denton area. We will definitely return.
Also, they were lovely and attentive hosts but we 100% enjoyed our privacy as well.
Thank you so much for hosting us!

Thank you for the wonderfully detailed and glowing review, Michelle! It was a pleasure having you as one of our first guests. So glad you slept well and found the cottage to be like home. Can't wait for your return!
Just loved this adorable house. A feeling of home as soon as you enter. My family enjoyed staying in this most comfortable home, with a beautiful kitchen, with everything needed to cook a meal to the most comfortable beds. Just a great stay, Will defineitly be back!

So glad you found everything you needed in the kitchen. We strive to make our cottage a comfortable and cozy home-away-from-home. We are delighted you found this to be true! Looking forward to your return!
Very nice and very clean cottage. We enjoyed our stay very much. Only cons were the drag racing on the street and if you are doing any major cooking we felt the kitchen could've been better stocked with pans and baking dishes. This is a lovely cottage and super clean! The owner is very attentive. Would definitely stay again.

We do have pots, pans and baking sheets. You may have missed them below the stove or in the wall cabinet? We encourage our guests to reach out if they can’t find something. So sorry you missed those! The cottage is on a city street but typically it’s very quiet and relaxing from inside the home. Thank you for the review and come back!
Everything at the Shiplap Cottage is just so comfortable and well-organized. The beds are just right, the bathrooms and kitchen have everything you need (right down to a little coffee measuring spoon), the decor is eclectic, but carefully and lovingly curated (not just random things, like many rentals), there are books in the living room, and it has awesome wifi, and Alexis to help, if you like. The Nest system, ceiling fans, and double-pained windows keep it comfortable, too. And there are labels to help you find the important stuff (like coffee filters), so you're not pulling out every drawer in the kitchen looking for them the first few days. It's just the right combo of modern and functional, but with warmth and character and history. Great place to stay in Denton!

THANK YOU so much for the delightful and detailed review. Very happy you noticed the little details and found the cottage to be warm, comfortable and full of character and history! Looking forward to having you back!
Technically on N Elm, this cottage was perfect for a couple of days *winding down* from a long multi-state drive. Plenty of nearby shopping w/best coffee in Denton at Goldenboy. Outside temps were chilly during my stay but the climate control inside was perfect. Part of me wants to keep this lil place a secret but I know Lauren needs to keep her business afloat - I highly recommend this cottage!

This property was perfect in every way. So quaint, cozy and comfortable. Seemed like everything we would ever need was there, just like being at home. Owners were very helpful with check-in, check-out and general correspondence. I would highly recommend this Shiplap Cottage if you are needing a place to stay in the Denton, Texas area. 5-stars!

Thank you for the AMAZING review Shari! So pleased you found our cottage quaint, cozy and comfortable. Really happy you felt at home!
We stayed at this wonderful property with our son, daughter in-law and first grandchild. We could not have found a better place. This home has been tastefully updated and still holds onto its historic charm. For 2 couples and a newborn - it was roomy enough and very comfortable. Very close to DT Denton and the 2 universities. 5 stars!

Thank you Lou! We are thrilled you found our cottage to be tastefully updated and appreciated the historic charm. Looking forward to your return!
We rented this home four days, for a church conference. It is a very welcoming, comfortable home. The beds are extremely comfortable, even the stowaway bed has a memory foam mattress. The kitchen has all the little extras that makes fixing meals a breeze. The owner was very professional and prompt about answering questions. My Pastors wife even took pictures to show her family how cute this home is. If we ever travel back to the Denton area, we hope to rent it again.
God Bless
