Second visit

We stayed at Frog Cottage for the second time and it does not disappoint. We had a great time with our 18-month old granddaughter watching the birds, deer and squirrels. Great stay!

Yearly girls trip

We loved the house, it was a very cozy place. However, we could have used more toilet paper, extra blankets and a handrail to get down the stairs for my mom and aunt. It was a beautiful place.

Great stay!

We had a great stay at this property. Much more spacious than the pictures made it look. Beautiful property, lots of room outside. Kids had a great time swimming in the river and feeding the deer. Loved how it felt isolated but very close to town.

In love with the Frog Cottage

A perfect place to stay! Comfortable inside & out. Close to town and very quiet. Right on the river. Even though it’s the middle of a drought and the river is down to just pools, it’s so relaxing to see the animals that come to drink.

Just what we needed for our 25th anniversary.

Quiet and relaxing for a couples getaway, but spacious enough for a family or small friend group. Close to a thriving downtown area as well driving distance to several other towns.

Cute Property

Property was a cute little cabin in Wimberly next to the Blanco River. Perfect size for what we needed; nice and clean. The neighbor is super close and probably the only (very minor) concern when you bring a kiddo with you.
