We had a great time at the Main Cottage. The host totally communicated the checking in and out process. The house was clean and had everything that we needed. We loved the added bonus, all the wonderfully goodies that was set up for us. We will definitely be going back.

The place was perfect for my family. We had pretty much everything we needed and the gift waiting for us was lovely. It was located close to the rivers and lost maples so that was very convenient. It was quiet and had a beautiful backyard we even got to see some fireflies.

We had a wonderful stay at this cottage! The space was cozy and impeccably clean, which made it the perfect home base for our trip in the Hill Country.Pablo was an excellent host—very responsive to messages and generous with local recommendations. We were especially grateful for the thoughtful welcome package they left for us. While we had brought some supplies, having the extra goodies was such a nice touch, and we really appreciated some of the snacks when we were out hiking the next day! It was such a considerate touch that really set the tone for our stay.We'd happily return and recommend this cottage to others!

Weekend getaway

Great location for anyone interested in riding the Twisted Sisters motorcycle route. It was beautiful cruising the area. Appreciated the tips given by Pablo and restaurant recommendations and the snacks provided. We also spent time at the local river spot with our kids swimming in the cool river. We visited the Lost Maples Natural Area for hiking and went to the Devil's Sinkhole tour. It was a great stay and house met all our needs.

Pablo was very communicative and friendly. Our family was in town for a funeral and we appreciated being able to have family visit us. The house is within walking distance to local stores. The house is located right on highway 16 at an intersection. I love motorcycles so loved watching them drive by. They do get loud so if that bothers you, this might not be a match.

The host, Pablo, was very conscientious about making my stay enjoyable. Everything a person might need while on a trip could be found in this cute house. There were snacks liquid refreshments awaiting me, which was so thoughtful and very much appreciated. The house was decorated with an assortment of personable and unique items which made it feel like home. I have to give this place a huge shout out for having hot water! Wonderful! Not all places have this! One of the best parts of this house was its location. It is at the end of the Main Street and within walking distance of a great Ace Hardware, the community library, an amazing log furniture business that well worth visiting, and several restaurants and other small businesses. Very convenient! I have relatives in Medina and I plan to book this VRBO again. Thank you so much, Pablo!

Terrible yard! Does not look like pictures!

Well, the home was ok but we chose this location because of the space outside. It was in horrible condition with grass over a foot long! Tried to get owners to clean up....they ignored us. Not a very good experience for sure!

Wonderful Little Respite

This was a wonderful by little home away from home. A great space literally right at the start of the Three Twisted Sisters Trail. The home has all of the comforts one needs to stay, play, eat, and sleep. Comfortable furnishings to relax in. Plenty of kitchen gear to cook meals or reheat leftovers. Entertainment options for enjoying your downtime after a day of exploring and adventures. Close to town while staying rural with deer and other wildlife walking right up to the back yard. And the hosts were accommodating and responsive, answering our questions promptly and meeting our needs throughout the trip. The welcome “basket” was an awesome touch with snacks and treats and even thoughtful toys for our pet. Thank you so much to Pablo and Rosy for the wonderful home away from home.

Follower of Christ, loyal husband, artist, musician, father of 2 boys, 2 girls. We treasure lifelong friendships.
Rosy my wife, retired kindergarten school teacher, loving wife, super mom, pianist and partner in life.
We both enjoy the Texas Hill Country and it's history. Can't live without family, friends, church, dreams & purpose in life. I love Mexican, Caribbean, Thai, and American food.

Our favorite vacation destination is the Texas Hill Country, South Padre Island, Sarasota, Florida, Nashville, Tennessee, Nova Scotia.

Quality time together as family is worth more than gold. We enjoy our time at our cottage and feel honored to share it with other families.

Why they chose this property

We have traveled the Hill Country region for many years and stumbled upon this property in 2017. Located between Bandera and Kerrville. Medina has been a
hidden gem since 1865 and a peaceful throwback to an era akin to Mayberry and Andy Griffin. Maybe HGTV had something to do with our endeavor, or inspired us to do a restoration of this diamond in the rough. It's been an ongoing process with ongoing room for improvement. We are proud and glad to share our cottages with families and friends!

What makes this property unique

Medina is located in the upper Medina River valley, in the geologic region of the Texas Hill Country Southwest region. Set within the hills we have history of early settlers around 1865. The Medina River crosses town and offers crystal clear cool water all year long. The local agriculture is cattle, goat ranching and apple orchards. Friendly folks are the real assets here and there are a few shops in town where you can experience them.
The community has 4 churches, 1 volunteer fire department, 1 coffee shop, 1 quilt shop, 1 public library, 1 beauty shop, 1 BBQ restaurant, 1 apple orchard, 2 convenience stores and 1 Elementary/Middle/High school on one campus. You can hear the high school football games in the fall, very nostalgic experience.
