This was a beautiful property, secluded enough for privacy yet still close to restaurants, stores, etc. The hosts were also very easy to get a hold of and the home was very well stocked. We loved the pool!

We really enjoyed our 5-night stay. The property was well maintained and had plenty of outdoor space. The pool was great to cool off in the summer heat. I really liked how quiet it was and felt secluded but shopping was fairly close. It felt like home right down to newly potted plants and ferns. We would stay here again for our next visit to Texas.

Relaxing

A great way to relax and feel like you are miles from the city. The pool was a wonderful way to beat the heat. If you don’t want to travel far but want to get away, this is you place.

Wonderful stay

We stayed here for my son's baseball tournament at Premier Baseball. The ballpark was about 7 minutes away - so convenient!! The cottage was very well stocked with everything we could have possibly needed. The beds and pillows were very comfortable. The pool and trampoline were wonderful ways to keep the teenagers entertained. I highly recommend the house for a family stay!

Beautiful Serenity and Wonderful Hosts

This home is a beautiful, peaceful, and tranquil retreat for friends, family, and children. Everything you need is at your fingertips. Home is always clean and beautifully appointed. If you love nature, this is a great place to visit! Deer, owls, and even a fox were seen each day/night during our visit! This home is a true gem and the hosts are as well! W

Awesome Place!

Highly recommend this lovely home! It was spotless, well stocked with everything you could possibly need. Beds were extremely comfortable. Excellent communication from the rental staff - very clear and easy check in and check out information. It was exactly as described in the listing and the views were amazing. Huge trees and wildlife make the property one of our favorites we have ever stayed at. The pool and hot tub both were awesome as well. We definitely plan on staying here again in the future!

The property was beautiful and well-maintained. Our host and hostess is were very attentive

We hosted a rehearsal dinner at this property and allowed our bridal party to stay at the property instead of using hotels. Our host and hostess were very accommodating and everything went beautifully All our guests raved about how beautiful and spacious the home was. There were multiple places on the property to gather for more intimate conversation

Serenity & Complete Privacy

This is the 4th time that we have stayed here. For our family, staying here is a must have for a great trip. It has a big swimming pool surrounded by beautiful nature. This swimming pool has the most amount of shallow area compared to other rental homes with pools which I have stayed in. This is the house where we taught my 5 year old learned how to swim last year. If you want complete privacy, neighbours are far away & well hidden behind trees, and if you want serenity this is the place to go.

Summertime fun

This property was so beautiful. The house was so comfortable and decorated like "Joanna Gaines" style vibe!. The beds were all king size and we slept like a baby. There is so many sitting areas and tables inside and out. The pool was clean and so much fun. Wish I could just stay and retire here. We will definitely come back again. We also seen so many deers in the yard daily. It was an awesome weekend getaway.

HIghly reommend staying here! I will again.

Excellent rental. Very easy check in. the place was fully stocked with things I would not have imagined. Beautifull views of the property. Seen deer everyday. The pool was amazing. The only, slight, disappointment, was the house out front, almost beside the pool. Not very private. Not a deal breaker though. I can not wait to plan my next stay. I actually flew in from Pa. for a wedding. Staying at this place is my next excuse to fly down here to Texas. Thank you, to the owners, for such an amazing stay.

Better than advertised!

Amazing property! The pictures do not do this place justice! The pool was fantastic- clean, great temperature, and just enough shallow area for our little ones to enjoy! The house? Wow! It is spread out and comes with anything you could want, including all the pots and pans you'd need to feed an army! The living room is all windows and provides great views of nature. Our kids loved the toys that were provided and the extra space to spread out and play. We cant wait to get back for a longer stay!

Absolutely the BEST of times!

Once again Annegret and Jimmy have given our family a most memorable and amazing experience at River Rock Cottage! Their home offers a relaxing and comfortable atmosphere inside and out. Stunning views of the property, beautifully appointed home, and fully stocked kitchen. You'll find everything exactly as described in the listing. The Shaw's go above and beyond to make sure guests are welcomed and comfortable. If your looking for a little piece of paradise, this property is exactly that! We have stayed every summer for several years and will definitely continue to do so! Thank you again Jimmy and Annegret! You are absolutely amazing!!!!

Wedding in Texas

Beautiful home and has everything you didnt realize you needed for a week long stay with kids. Me and my family came in from NC for a wedding and had a wonderful stay here. The kids, 4 year old triplets and my 10 year old loved everything the house had to play with from toys, sand box, the pool, ect. The owners went out of their way to install child safety locks on all the doors leading outside, which was much appreciated! The pool is not fenced, though was not a problem for my family as my kids are very active in the water and taught water safety. The kitchen was stocked and had everything needed to buy groceries for dinner and cook. Washer and dryer was awesome to have and they had all supplies for you. The property is quite and peaceful! Definitely worth the stay!
