We had an amazing stay at Monticello Cottage during the holidays. It was decorated beautifully and had the perfect amount of space for our family of 4 plus dog. It was well stocked with what we needed for cooking and relaxation. My kids loved the games and coloring activities in the upstair loft area as well as relaxing on the hammock, jumping on the trampoline and roasting smores in the fire pit. We enjoyed its proximity to Pedernales Falls state park for hiking. Our host, Nicolette, was super responsive to our needs and gave great recommendations before our stay. We would love to return!

Best place to stay if looking for quiet, serene place that’s close enough to town to get groceries and shop. The owners did a perfect job of creating a wonderful space to relax and enjoy a Texas get away. All accommodations were well appointed and not to cluttered. Pet friendly with a good place to walk dogs and get great exercise walking the hills. We will definitely stay again.
