About this property

Enchanted Mermaid Cottage~Fire pit~Great backyard

This is a small piece of treasure on an island of relaxation. A beautiful magical cottage with a fabulous outdoor entertaining area where you can sit on the covered deck or by the fire pit to gaze at the stars. Our cottage is fully equipped to make you feel right at home. Our home is 2 bedroom, and 1 bathroom that sleeps 6 guests. Perfect place for a quick getaway to watch a college game, or to float the river. We also welcome long term rentals for those looking to get out of the crazy city life. limited parking and unfortunately there is no street parking out front, 2-4 cars can fit per size.

The mermaid cottage

It was a perfect stay for my small family to prepare for the rehearsal dinner and wedding at the near by ranch wedding location. It worked perfectly having everything we needed for our 2 night stay.

Cute Cottage with Great Location

We loved the experience of the Enchanted Cottage. It was a perfect location for early morning walks, coffee places, and shopping in Wimberley. We would definitely stay again.

Super cute

I rented this home as a gathering place for my family after my son’s graduation. It was smaller than it looked in the pictures and I was not aware at first of the limitations on parking, but it was super cute and worked well for our purpose. The double bed was not comfortable for two adults used to sleeping in a king but that was expected. Great location within walking distance (1 mile) from the campus. Would have enjoyed the fire pit if it hadn’t rained, but we did enjoy the covered patio and corn hole boards.
