Very nice place. Clean, quiet, nicely furnished, no drama, plumbing & appliances functioned properly, an abundance of wild life particularly deer. I would come back.
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!
From the first time we laid eyes on this place we were in love. This beautiful place was the most organized, cleanest place that we have stayed. The front and back yards are absolutely gorgeous.
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!!
I have stayed at Carols Cottage several times. It’s always easy to check in, always clean and Carol is a wonderful host. The welcome note & bottle of wine are a nice touch and I will keep coming back.
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.
This Adorable two bedroom cottage with amazing decor in a quiet neighborhood close to everything was a perfect place to tuck away and get some work done.
We were in town for some unfortunate circumstances and Carol and Joe could not have been better hosts. We throughly enjoyed our stay with them and hope to see them again in the future. The property was beautiful.
What a wonderful home! Carol’s Cottage was one of those places that was just right! It was decorated nicely and was cozy and comfortable. We will definitely be back!
We loved everything about this vrbo, from the cozy and charming home to the beautiful, clean pool! It was absolutely charming, peaceful & relaxing. We will definitely be back!
Parking wasn’t great and tv was only streaming so my husband had a hard time with that. The house was very nice and there were deer in the yards at times. We would stay there again. Much better than a hotel
My family of four had a wonderful time at Carol's cottage. She had the perfect set-up in the house and lots of amenities, including a large pool with lots of toys.
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.
Amazing hosts in an amazing neighborhood!!! Very quiet, a lot of deer and other woodland creatures to watch. Cottage was very clean, well stocked. We would absolutely come back here, wouldn’t look elsewhere in Kerrville!! This was perfect👍
