About this property

Charming Family Friendly Escape, close to Austin

This newly renovated bungalow has been carefully curated with a blend of vintage finds, Victorian art, and luxurious colors, creating a one-of-a-kind Texas experience. Just a short stroll away from Lockhart's Historic Town Square, our cozy cottage is the perfect place for a memorable weekend escape, a productive work staycation, or an unforgettable family trip.

The greatest compliment we have ever received? That this is the perfect place to write a novel!

Lockhart holds the distinction of being the BBQ capital of Texas. It also happens to be one of the cutest and most charming little towns in the State. While the legendary BBQ restaurants are not to be missed, this little town has so much more to offer than just smoked meats. If you are looking to explore, take a short walk to the original downtown, Lockhart. With our stunning courthouse dating back to the 1890's at its center, it really is a quintessential small town square, rich in history and ripe with modern amenities such as restaurants, bars and even a little market!

Despite its outward appearance of a sleepy little Texas town, Lockhart punches above its weight-class when it comes to festivals and events. From First Friday's, Sip n' Strolls, Court House Nights, to the annual Texas Monthly BBQ Fest there's always something to do in our little town!

Because it is so centrally located, while staying at The Copper Cottage you do not need a car. However, if you are looking to explore the Hill Country and beyond, Lockhart's central location provides endless opportunities:
-30 min drive to Austin
-1 hour drive to San Antonio
-15 Minutes from access to The San Marcos River

Quite possibly the most well decorated rental we've ever had the pleasure of staying at! Lauren was incredibly communicative and generous, and the home is curated with antiques. Just a short walk to downtown Lockhart too!

The Cutest & Coziest!
We couldn't have loved staying at the Copper Cottage more! The house is so cozy, the beds are like clouds, and on top of all that it is so wonderfully curated with beautiful vintage pieces. The coolest part is that the house is shoppable! I was able to buy a set of glasses I fell in love with during our stay. Another bonus is that the house is in a super walkable location! I can't wait to go back! I'm already plotting my next visit. :) Can't recommend this place enough!
