Photos and Description of the Grapevine vacation cottage rental
Cottage, 1 Bedroom + Other (See Description), 1 Bath, (Sleeps 2-5)

Very cute cottage is charming inside and out.

Cozy comfort with a large private bedroom, one bathroom and an open living room and kitchen. A multi-purpose room provides laundry appliances and plenty of extra space as an office, study or guest room.

This not-so-big house is simply splendid for an individual or couple. The house can also easily accommodate up to five guests for shorter stays.

The location is perfect. The award-winning ten acre Grapevine Botanical Garden is directly across the street. Lighted tennis courts (two blocks), historic Nash Farm (two blocks) and an abundance of shopping and dining on Main Street (three blocks).

A whole-house renovation was completed in February 2012 including new furniture throughout, new housewares, new central HVAC, new on-demand or “tankless” water heater, wood floors, spray foam insulation and so much more.

The bedroom features plenty of storage with an expanded wardrobe-style closet.

The black and white tiled bathroom has a large shower and pedestal sink.

With the queen size sleeper sofa in the living room and the convertible over-sized chair in the multi-purpose room the cottage sleeps a total of five guests.

The large kitchen opens to the living room. A pub-style dining table and tall stools offer up a cozy at-home dining option. Slide to the side when not in use.

There is clear parking for two vehicles. Nothing fancy.

Adjacent to the cottage is nice pergola with a table, chairs and double glider. A charcoal grill is nearby for outdoor cooking. And there are a couple of rocking chairs on the front porch!

The cottage is close to pretty much everything! Ten minutes from DFW International Airport; five minutes to the Gaylord Texan; five minutes to Great Wolf Lodge; seven minutes to Grapevine Mills Mall; ten minutes to Southlake Town Square. If you drive like a Texan then downtown Fort Worth and downtown Dallas are twenty minutes away.

Visiting and traveling medical professionals such as PTs, RNs and MDs save ten percent on all rate levels.

Outstanding Rental

Submitted: April 11, 2013 Stayed: April 2013
Comfortable, cozy, modern cottage close to amazing restaurants, shopping and more! Truly one of a kind accommodations. My Brother-in-law stopped by and fell in love with the place. Told his wife that when he disappeared, he'd be found right here! We had everything we needed and more. Can't say enough about the Grapevine Cottage. Definitely will stay again when in the area and will recommend it to friends and family.

Owner's Response: Kind words, y'all! We're so glad we were able to provide you all the comforts of home. And our terrific Grapevine location makes everything just a hop, skip, jump away. All the best as you embark on your grand adventure! Look forward to seeing you again!

A Delightful Cottage

5 of 5
Submitted: January 20, 2013 Stayed: October 2012
We stayed at this adorable cottage for two months while working in the area. Ross and Tammy, the owners, were wonderful from the very beginning offering information about what to do, where to shop, etc. The property shows pride of ownership and the two of them take loving care of all the details. The cottage is exactly as it appears in photos. It was spotless, charming and fully equipped. The details such as color, decorative moldings and nice artwork were all appealing and made the cottage feel like home. I loved the big screen TV after a long day at work and the bed was comfy. We enjoyed walking two blocks to the historic downtown area where we could have breakfast or dinner and explore the great little shops. We were there through Christmas- it was fun to see Grapevine all decked out in it's Christmas finery- They go all out!! All in all it was a great experience and we will likely return. Ross and Tammy are great hosts.!!

Lovely and comfortable stay!

What a wonderful place to stay! My husband and I spent an extended weekend at this lovely home, and found it to be inviting and comfortable. It has plenty of space and has been beautifully updated. We loved the way the kitchen opens up into the living room area. The wood floors and warm earthtone colors add a nice ambiance, and everything was impeccably clean. The kitchen is well equipped with cooking and serving utensils, and we enjoyed sharing a bottle of wine and making dinner at the house. There's a comfy sofa and chair in the living room area, with a large flat screen TV and DVD. We also loved the pebble-bottomed shower, which gives a nice foot massage. We have this in our shower at home, and were pleasantly surprised by this. Lots of fluffy towels were available, as well as extra sheets and blankets ... everything to make the stay comfortable and enjoyable. A washer and dryer is available if needed in a back room of the house. The owners, who live in the home directly behind the rental, are very friendly and available if needed, but completely unobtrusive. The most important thing of all to us was that they were willing to let us bring our small dogs, who are like family members to us (in fact, the purpose of our road trip was to spend some family time with them on an "adventure"). The owner has a very large lot with trees and beautiful plants, so we were able to walk around the property with our pets, which they loved. There's also a beautiful park directly across the street from the rental. The street can be a bit busy during morning rush hour, but this didn't detract from our stay as we're early risers anyway. The owners obviously put a lot of thought into the things that would make guests comfortable, and I hope we'll be able to enjoy visiting this lovely home again.

We loved every minute of our five days in the cottage in Grapevine. The property is very clean and newly renovated with easy access to downtown Grapevine. The owners, who live next door, were friendly and helpful and had provided everything we needed for a comfortable, enjoyable stay. We frequently rent on VRBO, so we know properties sometimes look better online than they do in person. We were pleasantly surprised in this case. While the house is small, it didn't feel cramped; the furniture is new; the bath and shower are nice; the laundry room has a full-size washer and dryer; the kitchen is fully equiped and opens to the living room; and the queen bed is very comfortable and there is a large closet with shelves. We will definitely rent here again when we're in the area!

Owner's Response: Thanks for the kind words, y'all! It was a pleasure to have you stay in our not-so-big house. Like you said, the location is terrific; Historic Downtown Grapevine is a short walk away for dining and shopping. And golf and other activities are just minutes away. But when you are "at home" in the cottage, we want you to be as comfortable as you would be at your own home. Thanks again!

In fact "Home from Home" doesn't even come close to our feelings on this wonderfull cottage, it is Home, everything about it,the place itself is so full of character, clean, well maintained, great lay out and very well equiped. It is a short stroll to all the facilities and attractions of Main Street Grapevine, so you can if you wish do without the car (how often can you say that in Texas?). Ross and Tammy make you feel very welcome, and we felt more like friends than paying guests.Their description of the property is spot on and the photos accuratly depict the cottage and its amenities. We would have no hesitation in recommending the cottage to anyone who want to stay in a place of character, in an ideal location in historic Grapevine. Our favorite places nearby on Main Street were the Grapevine Theater, particularly the Grapevine Opry on Saturday nights and Tolberts which combines live music most nights with good reasonable priced food. (Try The Chilli!). very sorry to leave, altready booked for next year.
