Cottage Dripping Springs

Really loved the place. Quiet, quaint and comfortable. Everything was functional. Kitchen had comforts of home including wonderful home baked banana bread for each of our 2 days. Bathroom had a jacuzzi tub, but not a shower. The weather was comfortable so we did not even turn on the ac or heat. Slept with windows open. We are country folk so the neighbors rooster crowing at 5:30 was a comforting nature sound. Had the windows been closed and a/c on we might not have even heard it. If you are seeking a quiet natural setting, this is a good place. The 4 star for ease of check in was because it could use a little more noticeable address at the front gate. The gate lock was a bit tricky but did work. The 4 star on cleanliness was more for aesthetics. Well water in the toilet bowl gave it a dirty appearance. Not sure how that can be avoided with well water.

Disappointed

Badly needs an upgrade! Not suggesting expensive, just newer items, furniture, etc. Bedroom furniture was acceptable. The worst part was the overwhelming, crippling smell of Pine-Sol. It was unbearable.
