Norma - thank you, we are so glad you enjoyed your stay! Loved the description of the electronic lock - it can be quirky sometimes, as it has to connect to the internet, think it sleeps a bit in between guests:). Thus, have to key in the numbers a bit slower, to wake it up from it's cat nap. But, we love it, so much easier than keys for our guests........although we also have a backup key available.....just in case. David & Niki Hope your trip home went well and no unexpected delays

The house is lovely. It has comfy, cottage feel and very tasteful decorated. We are 3 sisters on a trip to visit our brother. The 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms were a huge plus. The living room, dining area and patio were perfect for the four of us to visit. We are already talking about our next trip to Pickled Pepper cottage. The host was responsive and friendly.

Scott - we are so glad you enjoyed your stay at our cottage, thank you! Curious as to the bike event - my husband is an avid biker, however, Texas doesn't have the bike paths, trails or mountains, like Colorado. So he doesn't bike as much here and he misses biking treks; he'd like to become involved in a biking group....in case you have some suggestions :)

Stephen - thank you, we appreciate your review and recommendations, so we have the opportunity of making our home a little nicer for our guests and their needs. We had discussed making the "sitting room" into an office space as it is perfect and nice size. Thus we are looking for a desk/chair which will fit and be a comfortable working space. We hope your trip home was good and y'all arrived safely. D&N

Jill - thank you, there are so many deer in Kerrville and in our neighborhood. Glad you enjoyed watching them & they don't seem to be afraid of people:) We like having deer roam (wish they didn't like flowers so much) but it's nice having wildlife. Hope y'all had a safe trip home and you're welcome back anytime! David/Niki
