This charming haven offers a peaceful escape with stunning views of both the morning sunrise and the beautiful hill country sunsets, making it the perfect spot to unwind and rejuvenate your soul.
The Cates Cottage exudes coziness and charm. The studio-style layout is designed for both convenience and comfort, featuring a king-size bed, a wall-mounted Smart TV, two inviting chairs, an intimate dining table, and a well-equipped kitchen with a full-size refrigerator, electric stove, microwave, and Keurig coffee maker.

After a day of exploring boutique shops on Main Street, visiting local wineries and breweries, and soaking in the hill country’s natural beauty, relax on the covered front deck and enjoy the breathtaking sunset. For cool country nights, light up the fire pit and stargaze under the clear night sky. If you prefer a quiet evening in, pick up some groceries and prepare a delicious meal in the kitchen or on the charcoal grill.
