Girl’s Getaway

The Pearl is a charming little cottage near sleepy downtown Belton. The location is perfect for exploring the town or for a short trip to historic Salado or to Waco for the Magnolia Market. So many nearby restaurants, each with delicious food! Highly recommend The Pearl.

Quaint and Historic

Very clean home with distinct historic touches. Easy check in and out. We had an 80+ lady in our family and inside was very accommodating for them. Bottle water and wine in the fridge was a nice amenity. Would definitely stay there again if in the area.

Very clean home!!!

We had a long weekend in Belton and this home was perfect! It was one of the cleanest VRBO rentals we have had, plenty of towels and comfortable beds. Bonus was the proximity to restaurants and a grocery store.

Cute Pearl in the Heart of Belton

This gem of a Centurian cottage served my small family so well to celebrate privately for my UMHB graduation ceremonies. Plenty of extra linens made the space so comfy.

Very cute and clean house in a great location. The expo center is just 7 minutes away and downtown is a short walk. Kelly was a wonderful host and reached out prior to our arrival. If we are in the area again, I would definitely book this house again.

Perfect for what we needed

This darling cottage was less than 1/2 mile from UMHB and nestled in the historic part of downtown. So convenient for move in weekend with easy access to the trail for running. The cottage itself was clean and darling. The beds were comfortable and it has some really nice finishes. We’ll definitely be back.

Great house

This was our second time to this quiet and homey house. The beds are comfortable, and the home is very clean. We come from business once a year at the Belton Convention center. Which is a short distance. The house is walking distance from downtown. Which is great to walk to dinner and cute shops.
