About this property

Secluded cottage close to town with firepit

Country chic meets southwest cottage in the woods, complete with firepit.
Large screened porch. Open, spacious floor plan. Catalina Cottage is in a quiet residential neighborhood up in the hills above Kerrville less than 5 minutes from town center, restaurants, the Kerrville River Trail and the beautiful Guadalupe River. Wineries abound in every direction: Kerrville, Fredericksburg, Comfort, Utopia.
It is perfect for couples or small families to have a peaceful getaway in the beautiful Hill Country. A wonderful fire pit in the backyard awaits s'mores under a starry sky.
The space
Catalina Cottage is a special place where you can enjoy nature from the screened porch in the front or watch the sunset from the back porch. There are birds galore as well as deer and other critters.
There is a baby grand piano in the sitting area off the master bedroom just waiting for your inner musician.
The full kitchen is well equipped for any aspiring chef.

This house is amazing. Everything you need as well as slightly off the road. Truly a rest and relaxing house. Check in and out was amazing and there is even a piano in the house which my wife loved. If you’re in Kerrville for pleasure or work, this place is ideal.

Great location! Love how the house sits back from the road and is nestled in the trees. The house is very well furnished with a great layout. Master bed and bath are on opposite sides of the house from the guest bed and bath. The house is very clean with plenty of space. Loved sitting out on the back patio and the front patio is covered so keeps you safe from bugs. Would definitely stay here again!

Yes, the Hill Country had flash flooding which prompted me to reach out prior to your arrival and offer cancellation with no penalty. I hope you can come again under better circumstances. Carey

The entire home is beautiful & welcoming. It is clean & well stocked, through out. The beds are comfy, and the linens are nice and plentiful. So many little details make this home feel like staying in a friend’s home not a rental. The setting is lush, perfect and private. We wished we could have stayed longer. Communication with Carey was quick, easy and kind. We could not recommend more highly. What a treat it was to stay. Thank you! We would stay again.
