Marcella and her family have managed to create a little oasis only a few short minutes from all Austin is known to offer. I enjoyed spending a couple hours in the backyard reading and watching the baby chicks run around. The cottage was clean and offered everything necessary. Only thing missing is a cooktop, but in Austin, there are so many options to eat. And you can bring back leftovers, store in the fridge, and reheat in the microwave. There was even a pitcher of cold water in the fridge ready when we arrived. It was cool weather when we arrived and the heaters provided were perfect. The last couple days were warm and the fan plus window unit were more than enough to cool off the cottage at night. Will definitely recommend and look forward to staying here in the future.
