Summary: From the walk up the front porch to the moment we walked inside we were impressed. This cottage is adorable, spotless, cozy, and smelled glorious! The hosts clearly put a lot of thought and love into every inch. Great use of space and LOVED all the special touches like the record player and awesome little album collection and the San Antonio memorabilia. The wonderful smelling shower gel and shampoo in the shower and the fresh lavender in the kitchen also did not go unnoticed. We enjoyed tea on the front porch and chilling for a bit in the backyard. There was not a single thing missing except more time spent there! 10/10 HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Thanks for the stay! We will definitely be back!
