Everything we wanted!
What a beautiful and relaxing place to stay! We enjoyed the quiet neighborhood, the cool, refreshing pool, the abundance of birds and flowers and the many deer just sauntering by in the neighborhood. It was a short drive to the farmer's market, shopping, the brewery and restaurants. The entire place was very comfortable. Looking forward to visiting Kerrville again - Carol's Cottage is the perfect place to stay!

Delightful charmer
Carol has put her time, talent and affection into every square inch of this cottage. It is stylish, comfortable, functional, quiet and has numerous great antique furnishings. There is a spunky little weiner dog that lives on the other side of the fence who is always happy to greet you.

We loved the house and the neighborhood. We're birders so the feeders there attracted lots of birds which definitely added to our enjoyment. The deer wandered the area and were nice to watch from the porch. Great stay!!

Great hosts and charming cottage
We enjoyed our stay in this cottage hosted by Carol. They live in the neighborhood and we enjoyed being welcomed into their space. The cottage is well set up and while small, we had everything we needed. It’s a quiet, clean, lovely place to stay. We recommend it for couples or singles.

Great stay
Lovely area. House decor was perfect. The wildlife increased our enjoyment and safety was evident. We had a bit of a problem upon arrival, probably our fault. We never found the door code on our email so that caused a minor problem. The owner explained she was tied up with clients so that explained not being able to reach her when we arrived. Otherwise a wonderful experience.

All we hoped for!
The cottage was attractive, clean, well-appointed, comfortable. We were looking for a brief respite from the current heat wave as experienced in the city. This was perfect - good AC, beautiful pool, and a shady and beautiful place to sit outside in the mornings. The neighborhood was also very pleasant for a morning walk. We could not have been happier.

Beautiful property; online photos give only a hint. Bright, cheerful, up-to-date, comfortable, squeaky clean, charming, above average furnishings and decor. Hosts were welcoming, quick to respond to questions, gave local activity suggestions suited to our group. Ideal location: woodsy, cozy, quiet neighborhood, yet only blocks from various restaurants and shopping. We want to return!

Cozy Kerrville getaway
Carol's property is beautiful, and the pictures don't do it justice! The backyard was the perfect size for our small-medium dog. The interior of the cottage was super cozy, well appointed, and comfortable. We really enjoyed the pool as well! Highly recommend booking here and we hope to return in the future.

Summer Adventure
We chose to explore the Hill Country this year for our Summer Adventure and could not have asked for a better place to stay. There was a pool, easy accessibility for parking and entering through the front. The back does have steps (I am disabled & stairs are almost impossible for me). The bedrooms are roomy with storage for our clothing. We stayed 2 weeks. This was a central area where we could take day trips to Sonora to San Antonio and Fredericksburg is only 40 minutes away. The kitchen had all the cooking & baking items necessary. There was a Kuerig & a pot coffee maker (we utilized both). The grocery store was close by as were many parks. The piece de la resistance was having deer in the front lawn first thing in the morning & around 8-9 at night. We were sitting outside and they came in and ate a bit...never bothered us. We loved seeing them! Carol & Joe are amazing people, who are attentive, caring and genuine. We enjoyed our stay immensely!

Neal's Birthday Weekend
I liked the layout of the house, the wood floors and the lovely bath. The kitchen was very nice, and I loved the way the window was over the sink. The back yard was great, and even though we didn't bring out little doggos with us this time, the stock fencing down to the ground would be enough to keep them out of trouble. The chicken coop was pretty cool, and the design for their water was well thought out. We were a bit confused about the use of the pool initially, but once we figured it out we had a great time! And Joe was very helpful, answering our questions. Did I mention that the grounds were immaculate? :)
