Gingerbread House is our only pet-friendly cottage (2 dogs max, no cats). Dog bed and bowls provided.
Gingerbread Cottage is a pet-friendly 1BR/1BA stand-alone home situated on a 100+ acre ranch between Wimberley and New Braunfels. The cottage offers privacy, quiet surroundings, and easy access to outdoor recreation for guests traveling with or without pets. Inside, the bedroom includes a KING bed with luxury cotton sheets, down comforter, and down pillows. The living area features comfortable seating and a wood-burning fireplace. The full kitchen is equipped with a refrigerator with ice maker, oven, range, microwave, dishwasher, cookware, and dinnerware, providing the convenience of preparing complete meals. The bathroom features a jacuzzi tub and is stocked with quality towels and essentials.
Outdoor amenities include a private covered porch, outdoor seating, and a firepit (subject to burn regulations). Guests and their pets have access to miles of marked hiking trails, and a trail map is provided in the cottage. The ranch also maintains several horses, and horseback riding is available with advance booking, depending on weather and guide availability.
The surrounding property offers open land, wildlife activity, and wide views with minimal light pollution, making stargazing easy. The location provides convenient access to Canyon Lake, Wimberley Square, local wineries and distilleries, the Guadalupe River, and popular Hill Country scenic routes.
Gingerbread Cottage is ideal for couples or small groups (we have a total of 4 cottages) seeking a private, comfortable, and pet-friendly place to stay with immediate access to outdoor space and ranch amenities.

    The home had so many lovely personal touches. The peaceful and quiet atmosphere was everything we wanted. Loved being able to go on hikes on the property. Would absolutely recommend this property to anyone. Sherry and Gary y’all are legit.

    Me and my now husband stayed there a couple of nights before getting married in Gruene and it was such a lovely spot. The property is beautiful, the cottage is so cozy and clean. Whatever scent they use within the cottage, it smelled amazing the whole time we were there. The owners are very sweet and accommodating. We needed to arrive early and they allowed us to check in way before their usual check in time. We would love to come back in the spring time when the flowers are blooming. Thank you for our stay!

    Don’t miss out on the availability of hiking right outside your cabin door. Everything you need is here.

    This was my favorite trip I have had with my husband of 22 years! The cottage was super cute and ALL the amenities you could ask for. We stayed at #4 (pet friendly) and our plus one enjoyed all the smells and hikes he could sustain. Dog bed, dog bowels ready to go! Sherry and Gary left a beautiful bottle of wine with cheese and crackers to enjoy. They have fresh eggs daily in the chicken coupe to gather (and not actually get in the coop). That was a plus as chickens and I do not mix well with them thinking they need to roost in my curly hair. It was so close to the river and easy back and forth. We will be back!

    We enjoyed everything about this property and the great attention to detail. We had everything we needed, and will definitely be planning another trip back. We enjoyed a day in Wimberly, another day in Gruene, but also spent a day just exploring the trails and beautiful views on property. If you are looking to unplug and relax, this is a great spot to do so!
