We stayed a full week in August. Even though it was 100 degrees in Fort Worth, the house stayed very cool and comfortable. It also has a tall, privacy fence around it and has very tall trees above. It feels like you are entering a secret garden. We brought our dog and it was great to have a private, fenced yard. The Trinity Trail is a short walk from the house and we took our dog for walks there every morning and evening. The cottage is small, but so thoughtfully appointed it had absolutely everything we needed for an extended stay. Having a washer and dryer was really nice as well. We felt very much at home there. The attention to detail was outstanding. It was a comfortable home away from home.
