About this property

Darling cottage on the Blanco River. Minutes from downtown Wimberley!

Nestled on a beautiful sprawling plot of land right on the banks of the Blanco River, Rosey’s Cottage is a cozy getaway designed for two guests who are looking for an inviting country escape that is affordable yet relaxing. Rosey’s Cottage is a welcoming free-standing bungalow situated just behind the owner’s main house. It comes complete with kitchenette, king-sized bed and a plush sitting area making it the perfect spot for a casual and romantic weekend retreat.

After an evening meal cooked out in your Charcoal BBQ pit, snuggle up on the couch and enjoy a romantic movie with your loved one. In the morning, enjoy the sunrise and perhaps some bird-watching as you take in the natural beauty of the sprawling hills.

Though ample amenities and activities abound, nothing can compare with the hours of enjoyment spent down by the crystal clear waters of the Blanco River. With full access to some of the most sought after river frontage in Wimberley, you’ll take pleasure in swimming, wading, fishing and floating down the beautiful waters. The character and charm of this rustic hideaway combined with the unique river access will keep you returning to Hill Country for years to come.
