Loved the property, located close to downtown and our reunion site at Oakdale. House was clean and easy instructions for check in. Backyard was very nice and over looking the river! Great place to stay
What a wonderful place to stay! My husband and I enjoyed a two night visit without young adult children who loved floating the Peluxy River right off the back patio. Walkable to everything we needed! The home is warm and inviting and had all of the amenities needed. Thank you, Heather, for your hospitality.
We had a wonderful time relaxing, swimming and fishing. The location was perfect, right on the river. The kids loved it! The house was very clean and well stocked with everything we needed. Great location close to downtown and the big rock river area.
Amazing house! Lots of historical charm. Closes to everything. One of the cleanest vacation homes we have stayed in! Had everything we needed and more. Will definitely recommend friends and family to your property. Thank you!
It was close to the square and the Community Center where our reunion is help. It’s so relaxing to start your day looking at the river and ending the day looking at the river. Thank you for your hospitality.
This property is as advertised, nice sized home for the six of us. Wonderful back yard, the patio space and the sitting area by the river are wonderful.
This was such a great experience for my family! We stayed for spring break and got to enjoy everything Glen Rose had to offer with being so centrally located to everything. This place was so clean and the backyard was gorgeous! We got to fish from the edge. Thanks for a great stay!
We visited Glen Rose this past weekend with our infant, 6 year old, and 14 year old. My parents popped in also (in their 70s) and we all LOVED the house. The location is so close to town, Big Rocks, Dinosaur Valley State Park, Fossil Rim, and cute downtown restaurants. We loved the patio on the water and the ability to fish. We look forward to coming again in the fall. Thank you for a wonderful weekend.
Beautiful cottage on the Puluxy River! So well-appointed and welcoming. Outdoor area is stunning with patio right on the water and another close to house in the huge backyard. Five minutes from the square.
Nice location, we enjoyed sitting out on the river view deck. Close to dining and Dinosaur Valley State Park. House had everything we needed. Very clean!
Heather was so accommodating with our stay! The house was so beautiful and our kids absolutely loved all the room we had. I appreciate everything she did for us. When we visit family in Texas again we will definitely be staying with her again.
We had the best time. This was the first time we stayed in Glen Rose. The location of the house was perfect and close to everything. The view was beautiful. The surroundings were very peaceful and relaxing. The house was very clean and had everything we needed. We will definitely be back!
Our family came to Glen Rose to explore Dinosaur Valley State Park, and this property could not have been better situated for that. The park is only a 10 minute drive away, and restaurants and shops are within walking distance The riverside cottage is well appointed, clean, and comfortable. The only downside is the traffic noise from the road, but we were so tired from our day of hiking, that didn't really matter! Thank you for a wonderful stay.
