The Carriage House was a very homey, comfy and nice space. As someone who worked remotely in the city, being able to open the curtains and have the natural lighting and trees around me was really cool. I had everything I needed there, although I personally had issues with the wifi. Fortunately, it didn’t interfere with my work too much, but I had trouble using streaming services a lot of the time. Laura did what she could to improve it somewhat which was much appreciated. Also, if you keep your car in the driveway, depending on the season you stay, watch out for the sap. It can come on really thick and actually obstruct vision, so it helps to use a car cover.
The area is loaded with great places to eat, drink and hang out locally during the day and night. There’s all the benefits of going out to the city right by you while also being in a nice, quiet safe space when you want to go home. If you work or study remote, I recommend going to Toasted Coffee. There’s a 2nd floor that’s never too packed and there’s good places to eat for lunch or dinner right there. The highway is like 5 minutes away which was nice when I visited other cities in Texas.
Laura was a very accommodating and kind host. She made sure to provide all the required information before my arrival and was attentive throughout the entirety of my stay. She is very easy to talk to and she made my experience very positive. Overall, I highly recommend staying here. It’s a lovely area, home right by a great family.
