This little cottage had everything we needed and felt like home away from home. We enjoyed the complementary bottle of wine as well.

We had a relaxing and comfortable stay! The place was peaceful and had everything we needed to unwind. One of the unexpected perks was having a Dollar General right at the entrance of the neighborhood — super convenient for any last-minute items. We also loved that tubing and the concert venue were just 5 minutes away, which made our trip even better. Overall, a great location and a stress-free stay!
Comfy, clean, cozy, quiet and all we needed during our stay! Our complimentary wine was well enjoyed! Our host was welcoming and available if we needed anything. We hope to be again in the near future!
This was our second stay and we just love it and the location to the lake and places to eat. If you are looking for a place to go and unwind from your busy life then Canyon Lake is the place to be.
This rental was great! We enjoyed our time there. The neighborhood was nicer and quiet. The privacy was nice as well. Overall great experience with the property and host. Highly recommended!

Great location!!
This was our second trip me and we will be back. The location and price can’t be beat. The back yard is great if you bring your pup along. If you get a chance go by Pier Sushi and Muck & Fuss and eat the food is amazing
Darla is an exceptional host! This was the most dog friendly location I have ever stayed at! We loved the house, it was the perfect size for the 2 of us & our 2 small fur babies. The house was very clean. We really enjoyed the fenced in porch. We will definitely be back here every chance we get!
We enjoyed our stay a lot. I would say it’s more for people that enjoy a rustic atmosphere. The bed was clean and that’s what makes it or breaks it for me. It was close to the lake and there was very adequate parking available. I especially liked that it was pet friendly.
The cottage was perfect for our stay. Had everything we needed
We had a wonderful time in Canyon Lake. The property owner was very helpful during an unusual ice storm in February. She communicated with us during the entire storm making sure we had everything we needed. Do not hesitate staying in one of her properties.
First and foremost Darla, the owner, responded quickly to a question or two I had. AWESOME!!
The studio’s yard is fenced in and my dog enjoyed her space. I loved the easy access to neighboring towns, hikes, and entertainment!
Perfect little spot to stay right between Austin and San Antonio! Convenient to a couple stores and quiet. Looked exactly as it did in the photos! The property manager was easy to get in touch with and really nice. I enjoyed my stay. If you have small children with you or have them plan to visit it has a great little yard and swing but beware the nextdoor neighbors dogs, they DO NOT like kids and the fence is not very high.
Had a good stay except the fence on the sides of the house are not a privacy fence, so the neighbors dogs barked at us a lot and I had to walk my big dogs. It’s a little smaller than I thought it was but we made it work. The host (Darla) was wonderful responded quickly every time I messaged her.

Hi Goldie, we’re sorry to hear your stay did not meet your expectations. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they wanted to share the following:- The neighbor does have rescue dogs and there may be some barking from time to time, and we're sorry if this had a negative impact on your stay. - In the warmer months, there are some bushes that provide more privacy, however, after hearing your feedback, we have decided to install a privacy screen near the porch and along the 20-foot section that currently lacks privacy fencing.We do all we can to make the best possible stay, and we look forward to this property hosting many satisfied guests.
Cozy cottage to BBQ, patio chill, & great location to Lake &River
Enjoyed the cottage comfort. Had a washer & dryer to wash to clothes while on vacation. Patio great to hang out on and talk after eating BBQ off the grill. Definitely recommend .
