Beautiful little spot in Dripping Springs
We thoroughly enjoyed staying at this sweet cottage and will be back if we are in the area. The outdoor space was especially nice. We enjoyed sitting outside on the porch and down in the yard.

Family wedding
We found it to be very clean, well maintained and hospitable. Happy to have chosen Willie Mae’s cottage rather than a hotel chain! Would most certainly return if the opportunity presents itself.
