About this property
Red Donkey Cottage | Pet-Friendly 3BR close to downtown!
Donkeys, Goats, and Ponies are awaiting your arrival at the Red Donkey Cottage. This darling home is surrounded by beautiful oak trees, sweeping hill country views, and friendly farm animals. The Red Donkey accommodates up to 6 guests, and offers 3 bedrooms and 2 baths perfect for families or couples. Spend evenings under the stars relaxing around the firepit, sipping a favorite beverage, and recounting the day's events. If your furry friends would like to tag along they are welcome for an additional fee*. For larger groups, flutter over to the Red Bird Cottage located just around the corner with accommodations for up to 4 guests.
***We kindly ask guests NOT feed the farm animals they are on a special diet***
Guests will find the Red Donkey simply charming, with its welcoming front porch overlooking the active barnyard and all its merriment. Inside the cottage guests will find a whimsical feel with pops of red, fun art work, and unique furnishings chosen specifically for the cottage. Beautiful hardwood floors and stone work give the cottage a warm rustic feel adding to its hill country charm. With an open-floor plan the roomy living space opens into the kitchen making for a perfect space to gather with friends and family. Cooks will enjoy preparing family meals in this well established kitchen with bar seating or gather at the dining space that overlooks hill country landscape. Relax around the fireplace, mix up a favorite drink and enjoy a favorite movie in the roomy living space.
The master bedroom offers a King bed and attractive accent pieces. With a private back door, enjoy a night cap under the stars. Tidy up in the bathroom with a shower/tub combo. A second bedroom hosts a queen bed with fun art work and vibrant linens. Kids will love the third room with fun animal decor and two twin beds. A second bathroom is conveniently located and offers a shower/tub combo. Enjoy evenings on one of the two porches or relax under the stars around the firepit with a beverage of choice. Spend afternoons enjoying a good book under the trees. Grill favorites on the propane grill. The Red Donkey Cottage is a perfect place to experience all the Texas Hill Country has to offer.
Conveniently located only minutes from Wimberley Square, spend the day browsing the darling shops, dining in the delicious restaurants, or touring local wineries, and breweries. Outdoor enthusiasts will enjoy Jacobs Well and Blue Hole Regional Park for swimming, kayaking, and hiking trails.
Looking for an outing for the day? Take a drive to Canyon Lake and rent a boat or jet skis for a fun afternoon on the water. Check out the music calendar at Whitewater Amphitheater for an outdoor concert! Explore New Braunfels and Gruene and enjoy fabulous restaurants and live music. A day of tubing, kayaking, and rafting on the Guadalupe River is always fun. Families and children will especially love Schlitterbahn Water Park and Landa Park. Visit the over 240 shops at the San Marcos Outlet for an endless day of shopping.
Blanco has several popular attractions for outdoorsmen, historians, and foodies. Blanco State Park offers fishing, swimming, and hiking. For those interested in the historical Old West, The Buggy Barn has over 140 covered wagons. Real Ale Brewing Company offers guided tours and a taproom tasting experience.
Further down the road, spend the day exploring Fredericksburg. Travel to Wine Road 290 which offers 19 wineries, all within a few miles of each other. Visit one of Fredericksburg’s two amazing museums: the National Museum of the Pacific War and the Pioneer Museum. During the summer, make sure to stop by a fruit stand and grab some famous Fredericksburg peaches.
