The Painter's Cabin is a warm, welcoming and comfortable home situated in the unique and historic Methodist Encampment neighborhood. As you sit on the patio enjoying the gardens and native wildlife, you will get the feeling of being at a retreat, even though the heart of Kerrville is just minutes away. You will see deer wandering through the yard every day! The home boasts artful craftsmanship in every detail and is well furnished and stocked with practical items to make your stay as enjoyable, convenient and homey as possible.

You enter The Painter's Cabin from the front patio into a bright living space that adjoins a dining area and a well-stocked kitchen. Also off of the main living space is The bedroom with a queen-size bed. The Painter's cabin sleeps four with the couch in the living room converting to a bed. Extra linens will be available for the convertible bed. There is sufficient parking for 2 cars in the rock driveway. In the living room, there is a TV with Spectrum TV service for channel flipping, and it also has some free Roku streaming channels set up. Guests may also load their own subscription channels such as Netflix or you may plug in your own devices using an HDMI cable. The wifi is very good.

If you venture outdoors, there's even more to enjoy. Right out the front door is a wonderful patio with a table and seating, a great space for relaxing, having your morning coffee, reading, visiting, or having a meal or cocktails. The patio includes a small fire pit for guests to enjoy with wood available for purchase nearby. The yard is newly landscaped with mostly native, edible and medicinal plants, and it's common to see many birds, squirrels, deer, and occasionally other wildlife visiting the property. There is also a table and seating under the trees in the side yard.
