Beautiful, cozy rental. Everything was super clean, and owner/management had thought of every detail a visitor might need. We enjoyed our stay and hope to return next year. We particularly enjoyed morning coffee sitting out on the nice back covered porch: comfy outdoor chairs and privacy of the pretty little backyard! Lovely quiet neighborhood!

10.0 / 10.0

We loved staying here! So warm, inviting and peaceful! Our grandkids came by for a visit and enjoyed the pool with us, very special memories were made. Thank you! We would love to stay here again when we are in town!

10.0 / 10.0

Carol is a premier host! We loved her cozy cottage and fenced-in back yard with a covered porch and lovely views for us and convenience for our dog. I’ve already booked a return trip and highly recommend. The neighborhood is a very special pocket of Kerrville with an artsy flair and families of deer roaming about.

10.0 / 10.0

Everything about my stay was perfect. Such a beautiful setting, so peaceful. This year there were so many cardinals! Also saw a fox, lots of deer, several baby deer, and able to feed a deer. She came up to me as I was sitting on the porch and my host had graciously provided peanuts for the squirrels and deer. God’s creation always speaks to my heart so beautifully. Thank you for this wonderful place!

10.0 / 10.0

It was our second time staying at this home. It's a perfect place to relax and enjoy all the beautiful birds and evening visits from deer. We loved doing day trips to Fredericksburg, Luckenbach, Hunt and Ingram and coming back to Carol's Cottage for a dip in the pool. The house is so comfortable and fully stocked. The beds were perfect! We were fortunate to visit with the property owner's granddog, Hero. Will definitely stay again soon!

10.0 / 10.0

This was a great place to stay. Very comfortable guest house. We enjoyed sitting in the chairs under the porch. We enjoyed the hot days by the pool. We used the grill to make some great steaks. The chickens were so fun - it felt like home as we have chickens, too! We loved the blackberries growing along the fence and how fun to have the deer greet us when we first arrived. Thank you for sharing your place. It was such a nice retreat for our family.

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!

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!!

10.0 / 10.0

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.

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.

10.0 / 10.0

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.

10.0 / 10.0

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!

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!

10.0 / 10.0

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? :)

Carroll's Cottage was as nice/nicer than described. Location was quite and peaceful yet close to things to do and see. We were hesitant to rent in a residential neighborhood, however, starting from the large shaded front patio throughout the home made it truly a comfortable/peaceful cottage. The backyard was fenced and had plenty of room for our two small dogs. Surprisingly whether sitting inside on the comfortable couch or patio everyday we saw families of deer in this quiet cozy neighborhood. Host was very pleasant and concerned that we had everything needed. Very clean and well stocked. We most highly recommend.

10.0 / 10.0

We were so delighted to stay at Carol's cottage. Adorable 2 bedroom that's loaded with nice little touches, antique furniture, clocks (that were not wound --for guests convenience) but so cute. Complimentary items such as coffee and bottle of wine. Cottage located in secure and beautiful neighborhood that 2 over the age of 65 gals enjoyed. Grounds even included little pen with a duck and little chicks. Carol even welcomed our kitties. We kept one crated while out on our adventure but both were chilled. Just delightful! Cottage is 25 min drive to Fredericksburg and the Hill country of Texas. We hope to be back next year !! Thank you for a sharing your cottage with us Carol.

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

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Carol’s cottage is warm & welcoming, nicely appointed and very comfortable. We didn’t have time to use the pool this time, but it looked inviting. Also a perfect place to stay with a pet, complete with a fenced back yard (we didn’t bring our dog and wished that we had). We also really enjoyed the neighborhood and found it perfect for walks. The welcome gift of a bottle of Texas Hill Country wine was a nice touch. Thank you, Carol. We will definitely return!
