We loved our stay at the quaint cottage. It was adorable, comfortable, and clean. It was also well supplied in terms of kitchen items, clean and nice towels, washer/dryer, etc. The owners were very nice and extremely responsive to my questions. My friends and I had a wonderful time. We will certainly stay again and recommend to other friends.

My only hesitation in gushing about this place is my fear that it will be forever booked should we want to rent it again! The property feels like a home: lovely furniture, shelves full of books, and thoughtful touches throughout. Very clean! The location couldn't be better. To the west there are the gorgeous properties of University Park, with lakes and neighborhood parks. To the east you have SMU and Snider Plaza, with plenty of cafes and shops. When we had trouble navigating the cable, the owners were available to help and were a delight to meet as well. We would definitely stay here again!

We came for the eclipse and had no other plans for Dallas. We definitely girly didn’t want to be out on the roads. This was the perfect place. It’s a beautiful house—even better than the photos. Great for relaxing and in a very walkable neighborhood so that we had groceries, restaurants, and great shops less than a 15-minute walk away. Would definitely stay again.

What a lovely place to stay... we felt like we were at a Nancy Meyers designed home. So comfy and beautifully decorated and right in the middle of University Park. This home had all of the comforts provided... down to iron and ironing board. The beds and linens were so comfortable. We visited family, we shopped, we dined and loved walking the neighborhood. Wonderful stay and we will be back. Host has excellent communication. Thank you Mark for the warm hospitality.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the cottage which is located in one of the best neighborhoods in Dallas. The host was easily accessible and responsive the entire time and it was an extremely pet friendly neighborhood, which was great for my dog. Would highly recommend for a low key and comfortable stay. I was in town for work and this was perfect

My family and friends found your charming cottage truly delightful. The furnishings were very well appointed yet extremely comfortable.

English cottage in University Park
We stay at the cottage for 11 days. The property is completely renovated with upscale kitchen and bathrooms. It was furnished nicely like a english cottage. We walked to local resturants and it's in one of the best upscale neighborhoods in Texas. We highly recommend it.

Wonderful cottage close to SMU
We had a wonderful stay here for our son's graduation weekend from SMU. It was the perfect location, as it is nice and close to campus. The house was as described on VRBO and in the pictures. It was very, very clean, had comfortable beds and bed linens. The bathrooms had nice quality towels too! Owner Mark was available if I needed anything. I would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful home, fabulous location, needs privacy shades
The location is great. Walking distance to many restaurants and SMU. The home has everything you need and my communication with the owners was quick and easy. The pictures are completely accurate. I knew to bring eye masks because the window shades would not filter light. There is a film on the windows that prevents outsiders from seeing in during the day. The shades do not obscure your view of the outside at night at all. It was very disconcerting. Thanks to paper black out shades from Lowes, we were able to stay. I recommend amending the shades.
