About this property

Circa 1924, this cozy cottage sits on the riverbanks of the beautiful Guadalupe River right downtown Kerrville, with immediate access to Kerrville's top attractions. Located right across the street from the Kerrville Nature Center, guests are steps away from the Kerrville River Trail, walking distance to top restaurants including Grape Juice, Thai Ocha, Francisco's, and Yeo Bo's, as well as several shopping boutiques, antique stores, and Pax Coffee & Goods. Spend the day kayaking, paddle-boarding, biking, fishing, swimming, or exploring Kerrville's parks, museums, and golf courses. Relax on the private riverfront, or take a short 30 minute drive to Fredericksburg, Comfort ("an antique town"), Bandera (the "Cowboy Capital of the World"), or Lost Maples State Park. This centralized location gives guests access to all that the Texas Hill Country has to offer! Please read the full PROPERTY DETAILS listed below.

Simply Perfect!

My daughter and I loved our stay while in Kerrville. The cute little house was perfect for our needs. It has been beautifully updated and the grounds/amenities was an added bonus! The location was amazing as well. Loved our stay. (Not a problem for us, but there are about 5 steps to go up in order to enter the property.)

Great amenities and location!

Super cute place! Comfortable bed. LOVED the provided bikes and kayaks! Across the water (and along a short dirt path out your backyard) is a beautiful island with a great paved path for walking or biking to a popular swim hole area! It is so close! We also kayaked to it! H-E-B is 2 blocks away and for a longer stroll you can walk to the downtown area! We did one evening. There is a nature center across the street and you are right on the river trail (the paved path mentioned above) that goes for miles to your right or left. We explored that one day. You can’t hear your neighbors at all through the walls and at night we can’t hear the traffic on the road. They offer a box fan as well for extra cooling or white noise. Thought the AC works great and you don’t need it. Nice, big shower with good water pressure and hot water. Owners give you a detailed email of everything included in the rental. There are 3 different, VERY nice sitting areas on the river, so plenty of room to have your own space with other renters next door. This is a fantastic place!

This place is awesome

My boyfriend and I came to visit my family and this place was perfect for us. I felt like I was on vacation in my hometown! From the super comfortable bed, to the fire pit, to the water access, everything was so nice. We will definitely be staying here on our future trips to the hill country. The host was nice and fast responding as well! Highly recommend!

Easy and beautiful stay!

The property is well thought out and beautifully maintained. The location was perfect for us to explore Kerrville. We visited with friends and made use of the outdoor seating areas; taking in lovely view with our fine conversation. Loved the access to the River Trail and the restaurants within walking distance. Another visit is in the works for Sunset Cottage. Thank you for a great stay.

Kerrville Stay for TX Lions Camp Work Weekend

What a wonderful cottage! Very clean, private and inviting. The outdoor amenities were enjoyable. We had friends join us around the gas firepit on the deck for a very nice evening. The area by the river and wood firepit was relaxing. The bed was amazingly comfortable, especially after a long workday. We definitely recommend this beautiful cottage!

Great for a weekend getaway

We had a lovely stay in the Sunset Suite! The location is excellent for getting down to the river, accessing spots in Kerrville, or making jaunts out to Fredericksburg and other parts of the hill country. The unit is well appointed and had everything we needed for a weekend trip. We loved the outdoor spaces and fire pits. It is next to a somewhat busy street so you can expect some road noise right on the front porch, but we didn't find this to be a bother at all. It's basically unnoticeable inside and just a few steps away on the patios. All in all a great weekend space.

Great location

This is a small VRBO that was just the perfect size for 2; we enjoyed kayaking and walking on the trail and the wildlife right out the back door. This is 1 of 3 sections of one property and the other guests were friendly and we all sat and chatted. On my stay again list if I am back in Kerrville.

Great Cozy Getaway!

We really enjoyed our short weekend stay. Kerrville is very charming and the property was cozy. The weather turned on us so we didn't get to take advantage of all the outdoor seating by the river, but the fireplace inside make up for our loss. Would most definitely recommend.

Great stay in Kerrville

We loved this property so much. The river, the care that went into the unit, the exterior areas to relax in, everything was amazing. I would stay here again (and again) when visiting Kerrville. I loved this property so much, plus seeing the deer down by the river was so cool.
