About this property

5 min. stroll to Downtown Mckinney! Family & Pet Friendly Cottage

Relax with your family and friends at this inviting modern oasis. Recently updated (EVERYTHING is brand new; floors to showers, countertops, indoor/outdoor furniture and appliances!)

**Location?**
This cottage is a short 5 minute walk from Historic Downtown McKinney which features restaurants, pubs, bars, shops, wineries, and so much more.. It is also conveniently located close to hwy 75 for easy access to explore more of the Dallas area.
Our cottage is a 3 bedroom, 2 full bathrooms (towels provided). The bedrooms consists of 1 king bed, 1 queen bed, and 1 sleeper sofa. We also have another sleeper sofa located in the living room. Each bedroom and living room have smart TVs/Roku devices and also a dedicated workspace is located in 3rd bedroom.

We know what its like traveling with kids (we have 4!) so we have also provided a pack n play and umbrella stroller located in the king bedroom closet. A high chair has also been provided in the kitchen along with kids dinnerware. Fun family board games and children's books are located in the tv console for additional entertainment!

As for pets, we've provided a large dog kennel that can comfortably contain your pets indoors, as needed. (holds dogs approx. 30 in long, 23 in tall, ~70 lbs). The kennel is located in the storage shed on the side of the cottage.

Our kitchen is fully equipped and includes both coffee and tea options.

The back patio/deck is perfectly secluded and surrounded by bamboo to give you the privacy. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the new fire pit table that seats 4 comfortably or lounge on the sectional sofa. We also have a grill out on the patio/deck (extra propane tank in the storage shed, if needed).

You can almost always find live music in downtown Mckinney any day of the week. Some of our favorite spots to eat and have drinks are:
-Ricks Steakhouse
-Cadillac Pizza
-The Celt
-Spoons
-The Yard
-Sugar Bacon
-Mellow Mushroom
-Koji Sushi
-Landon Winery
-Baron's Creek Winery

Real fun place for the kiddos is Arcade 92 (great mix of old school games such as pin-ball machines, to new X-box PlayStations, arcade games... vintage meets modern!)

Tupps Brewery is also a must stop by and see..

*For kids & pets* Finch Park is located just west of the cottage, another 5 min. walk. Finch Park was completely renovated in Oct. 2022 and now features a gigantic playground (with attached SPLASH-PAD for those Texas summer days), pavilion rentals, sand volleyball courts, basketball courts, pickleball courts, looped walking trail, restroom facility, and charcoal grills.

This was our second stay and we still love it! Last fall was more enjoyable because we could enjoy the deck and outside fireplace, but only had one morning "cool" enough to sit out on the deck for mimosas this time.Clean, cute, comfortable. NO complaints. Great location (walkable to square). Highly recommend!

We enjoyed our stay in McKinney overall. On the first day, we noticed a few issues, including a mildew/musty smell in parts of the home. We reached out to the host, and they were very responsive and stayed in communication with us while working to address the concerns. We really appreciated their willingness to listen and make an effort to resolve the issues. Good communication from a host makes a big difference, and we were thankful for how they handled the situation.

We unfortunately had to cancel our trip due to a sudden family emergency involving our daughter and were unable to stay. Although we can't comment on the property itself, we wanted to recognize the host for their kindness, compassion, and excellent communication during an incredibly difficult time. They went above and beyond to work with us, and their understanding meant a great deal to our family. We truly appreciate their generosity and hope to stay here in the future.

This was an amazing find. I highly recommend due to the cleanliness, the location is ideal if you want to walk to all the bars/restaurants/shops. The house is on a quiet street but close like a 4 minute walk to the cutest downtown. The house itself was very roomy, comfortable, showers had great hot water, the living space was open and inviting. The beds were soooo comfy and the linens were fresh.
