Marcella's Garden Cottage is exactly like described - a true oasis and slice of paradise in East Austin. The garden setting is gorgeous but also reflects the beautiful home and family that Marcella and Meredith have created. We loved talking with Marcella and her daughters, exploring the garden and hanging out with the pets..... especially Fern! Marcella was gracious and a wonderful host. She engaged with us when we wanted to hang out and also let us bring some friends over to show off her beautiful home and pets - she even showed us some of Fern's very cool pet tricks.

The cottage itself is very comfortable and has tremendous character. We loved being there, inside and out. I highly recommend the cottage and would stay there again in an instant next time we are in Austin!
