About this house rental

Nestled on a beautiful sprawling plot of land right on the banks of the Blanco River, Rosey’s Cottage is a cozy getaway designed for two guests who are looking for an inviting country escape that is affordable yet relaxing. Rosey’s Cottage is a welcoming free-standing bungalow situated just behind the owner’s main house. It comes complete with kitchenette, king-sized bed and a plush sitting area making it the perfect spot for a casual and romantic weekend retreat.

After an evening meal cooked out in your Charcoal BBQ pit, snuggle up on the couch and enjoy a romantic movie with your loved one. In the morning, enjoy the sunrise and perhaps some bird-watching as you take in the natural beauty of the sprawling hills.

Though ample amenities and activities abound, nothing can compare with the hours of enjoyment spent down by the crystal clear waters of the Blanco River. With full access to some of the most sought after river frontage in Wimberley, you’ll take pleasure in swimming, wading, fishing and floating down the beautiful waters. The character and charm of this rustic hideaway combined with the unique river access will keep you returning to Hill Country for years to come.

This property is the perfect place for a couple to get away. Not too far from essentials such as grocery store and fun but far enough away fro main roads that your stay is not interrupted by traffic and noise from neighbors. We had a great time and were able relax

It was a cozy little place. Not a lot of water in the river and that was a let down (but who can control nature). Overall a good little getaway.

We were in Wimberley for the weekend to visit our daughter so we didn’t spend a lot of time at the location. It’s not fancy but the bed was good, bathroom was nice size (walk-in shower, no tub, but we were fine with that), air conditioner was maybe a little loud but it worked. Small kitchen but all we used was the mini fridge and sink. Finding the drive to the cottage was a little tricky and the link sent was helpful. Gates are necessary in Texas so just be aware that there is an open/close process.

The cottage was very clean and nicely decorated. The property grounds are in need of extensive maintenance. The cabin is not creek side as you can not see any creek unless you go around the residence home.

Rode in for the Houston area for a hill country ride over weekend. Very nice cozy cottage for couples. Only two issue's, one was the location of the TV. Second, cheapest toilet paper I’ve ever used. Bring your own. Other than that. We enjoyed our stay.

The cottage was clean, and the bed was comfortable. Joyce, the property owner, was friendly and accommodating. The pretty clear running river was just out back of the cottage and was ideal for wading. Beautiful scenery along the river. This did not bother us, but there is no internet service provided with the cottage.

I just needed a place to stay close to the Wimberley baseball fields for my son’s tournament. The inside was super cute, clean and perfect for what I wanted. The outside is a little tighter than I expected. There is a garage loft for rent, the tiny house (bandits hideout), then the owners house all very close together. The river is just beyond the owners house. Not a lot of privacy to sit outside and relax unless you go down to the river bank. Jacobs Well is within a 15 min drive and worth the trip. The Wimberley Square, Blue Hole and Cypress Springs are all within 15 min drive as well. The owner is very sweet and accommodating and definitely gives you your space. I only saw her when I drove up to the house to ‘check in’ and when I was loading up to leave. I very much enjoyed my stay and wish I had a couple extra days.

We love Wimberley and knew this was an area we wanted to stay in. So great to be able to walk right out and sit in the Blanco all afternoon. Chairs were provided which made it even easier for a quick getaway. This simple small cottage was perfect for the two of us and it was nice to be able to make coffee in the kitchen each morning. The owner greeted us when we arrived and was very friendly.

The photos how a lovely patio area with grill. In reality the chairs are broken and dirty, without cushions as shown in the photos, and there are two grills, both equally dirty and dilapidated. The patio and surrounding area are unkempt and weedy. The "deck" area overlooking the "river" had 4 or 5 mostly broken chairs, some of them turned over on their sides, and in reality overlooked a rocky, scrubby expanse, about 30 yards, leading to the river, which was about 2 inches deep and without any shade. The outdoor sitting area overlooking the river was dirty and shabby. In addition, the cottage is very close to 2 neighboring residences, the patio of one of which faced the cottage front door, and was full of broken pots and random stuff. The A/C unit was very noisy, and the refrigerator had no freezer, necessitating hauling bags of ice to the property from town a few miles away. Inside the cottage was spotless and comfortable, aside from the ice issue and the A/C; also there was a stove but no cookie sheet or even tin foil to allow warming of food in the oven.

Relaxing Stay

Relaxing Stay

The property was perfect for a quick weekend getaway for 2. The bedding was fresh and clean, and the bed itself was large and comfortable. The kitchen was perfect for storing weekend snacks/drinks. A few cobwebs in the bathroom under the chair and in the drawers, but no big deal. Parking was easy and sitting outside was peaceful. The water level was low so that was a bit of a bummer but out of anyone’s control. We were still able to relax in it upon arrival. The town is a quick 5-10min drive. Joyce was very pleasant to speak to. We would definitely stay again!

We thoroughly enjoyed our Wimberley visit and stay at this adorable cottage! It was clean, cute and perfect for two! A short walk down to the river for an enjoyable, peaceful, relaxing time chillin in the river, sipping cold beverages and listening to tunes! We also went into town to the market, shops and local restaurants and had a great time! Wimberley is a great, small artistic town and this cottage is a cherry on top!

Clean, but property is very small and owner is onsite. There was another family staying right next to us on the same site too. Not much parking at all. Nice cottage though, friendly owner, and pretty river access.

Does not look like pictures.

Does not look like pictures.

The owner is excellent, the interior is very clean. But the cottage is sandwiched between the owner's house and another rental. You have to walk around the owners home to get to the river. The photos of the outdoor firepit area and covered seating area do NOT look like that in person. There is an unsightly blue tarp covering up something right next to fire pit where the chairs are turned over onto the firepit. Was I supposed to set it up in order to use it? As well as the covered seating area was a mess and there was a broken tree blocking the pathway to the river and Watermelon slices chucked on the ground next to the pathway. The umbrella on the patio table is ripped and very worn, there were not cushions on the chairs as pictured. As well as plastic pots scattered all over the yard. If you are coming here to just stay inside, then great, this is the place for you. BUT we chose this place because it was ON the river with a great place to cookout and seemed to be "private" from the listing photos. Not the case. It is a small compound of homes where you are ten to 15 feet away from the next home and you are in the center. Very disappointed with the exterior space and privacy. Also, the TV volume cuts on and off depending on the channel you are watching and it does not accept an SD card, so I'm not sure how you are supposed to "snuggle up and watch a movie" together as the listing states. And it definitely isn't a smart TV where you could log in to your Netflix, Hulu, disney+, etc. I guess you are supposed to just watch one of the ten channels with commercials like it's 1985.
