Wimberley, Texas
Quiet and romantic upstairs cottage in the treetops with hot tub, four poster bed with sumptuous sheets and a garden of flowers. Sit on the upstairs deck looking over the Wimberley valley and garden, grill some steaks and relax in little piece of Texas just for you. Then head for the hot-tub to watch the stars overhead.
When it's hot out, come inside and draw the full length, double lined silk drapes to make a cool, cozy space to relax.
Inside there is a large Smart TV with terrestrial TV, streaming (Netflix etc) and DVD player (there is a RedBox in town for movies) or books and games for a quiet night in. Free wifi. The center of Wimberley is just 5 minutes drive. Austin , SXSW and the Circuit of the Americas are just 45 minutes away.
The garden is carefully planted with native species to conserve water and to attract pollinators and butterflies. There are vegetable beds too and guests are welcome to help themselves to what is ripe and ready during their stay. The cottage is built over an unused garage which lifts it and its deck above the treeline so you can see the views.
We'll leave a nice welcome basket for you too :)
Walter gave perfect instructions for the secluded drive up a beautiful a hill that leads to the cottage. We were greeted with a sweet note, chilled eine, and fresh homemafe cookies. The hot tub was perfect for relaxing after a ling day of exploring Wimberly. The patio was so peaceful at night with the tea lights and sounds of nature as we rocked on the wicker chairs with our wine. The garden was beautiful and had lush greenery. This is the absolute perfect place for a couple's romantic getaway@
We loved your property loved the jacuzzi and the romantic experience. Love the extra touches to are anniversary the macaroons and wine. 10 out of 10 experience.
The porch with the hot tub is super private and there are cute little kitties who visit. The place is overall super cute and romantic. It is the perfect location, as it is only 10 minutes from just about everything. The only thing that we would change is the bed; it was super creaky and would wake us up everytime we tried to turn over, and the mattress was super hard/uncomfortable.
Beautiful getaway with my partner for the weekend. There was a storm coming through so we really just hung around which was fine because the house is an open floor plan. The hot tub was a nice addition and privately set off to the side. Walter was very easy and pleasant to talk with. He and his wife left us a bottle of wine and cookies which was a nice treat.
It's in a great location just 3 minutes from town and 20 minutes from San Marcos, but secluded enough. Lots of local trails, great scenery, and wildlife. My concerns are with the upkeep of the property. The interior paint is peeling from obvious water damage from a roof leak. Calcium buildup in shower. The deck is warped and cracked and not weatherproofed very well. The hot tub seemed to be leaking. There was a constant drop coming from beneath it and the wood supports under it were soaked. It needs to be on better supports, not soggy plywood.
The Garden Cottage is becoming a regular staple for us. You're up on the side of a hill with a great West facing view. There are neighbors but they're buried in the trees and you never see them. The house is nice and clean with a spacious bathroom, well appointed kitchen and a wall of floor to ceiling windows. The hot tub is maintained perfectly without any sort of chemical smell. We'll be back!
It was rainy while we were there but we loved every minute of it! We needed time away from kids and jobs, this was perfect! Complete with wine and cookies that I would love the recipe to. Thank you for the perfect escape! We will be back.
The bed an pillow are very hard, other then that we had a good time. Very nice they had us a bottle of wine an cookies.
We spent New Year’s Eve on the cabin. Such a great stay. Quiet, private, spacious, the hot tub is definitively a plus (tip: turn off all the lights form the house and tub for an amazing view of the stars). Very well located, 5 min away from the town. We also went to San Antonio, which is about 1 hour drive and visited several wineries in Driftwood (25 min away). Will definitely return.
Cottage Garden will win you over with it's charming electic decor, an inviting open space that eludes rustic luxury, all the comforts of home and more. Cottage Garden will entertain you with it's beautiful views of the Texas hills, perched above a grove of Cedar trees - making it feel like a tree-house, with opportunities to watch wildlife, walk among raised-bed gardens, watch dozens of Red Birds courting and Humming Birds gather nector right above your head on the covered portch, AND a Gray and Black porch kitty - sweet as can be. Remembering the days when a peacock and a 3-legged dog lived on the property. Cottage Garden/Lookout Pointe has always been my favorite place to stay in Wimberly. It still is. I have many memories there. Thank you for sharing this space again Walter.
