Garrett House | Hill Country retreat Kerrville - pool - hot tub - outdoor shower
The Garrett House is a Dwell Well vacation rental property located just 3 blocks from Downtown Kerrville, TX. The Garrett house is quite the retreat! So many amenities, like a well-appointed kitchen, POOL, HOT TUB, OUTDOOR SHOWER, FIRE PIT, and Herb Garden. This home is walking distance to many great restaurants, coffee, bars, theater, river trail and more.
Beautiful neighborhood with several historic homes. Several of the homes on the block (including ours) are "Sears" homes, Homes you would pick out of a Sears catalog and have the materials shipped to you for you to build. Ours was built in 1925. The Garrett house is ideal for entertaining and family vacations. This 100 year-old home has been remodeled, but still has some of the original character!
Amenities: The backyard is large with a pool, hot tub, fire pit, screened in porch, and deck/outdoor shower off the master bath. The backyard has a 8 ft. high cedar fence (very private), with a nice barbeque for grilling. We have a family of deer that just might show up to hang out with you on the front lawn. The house has WIFI, Spectrum cable, Sonos sound, and iPhone chargers in each room.
Safety Notes: If you have small children, please take into consideration the pool and hot tub before booking. Safety is a huge concern for all our little ones. All use of the pool and hot tub are at your own risk. We do not have any lifeguards on duty. Also please know that the tile around the pool surround can get VERY slippery when it is wet, please be cautious.

I enjoyed the property- it was clean and thoughtfully stocked with everything one could need. Communication with host was professional and punctual. I enjoyed everything about this experience.
The property is gorgeous and family friendly. The backyard is a perfect oasis after a long day of sightseeing. Downtown Kerrville is steps away and great for exploring.
Cute house with a great location, and easy access to restaurants. The beautiful backyard provided a peaceful, relaxing area for family to unwind. Very clean and comfortable.
My family stayed here while in town for a wedding. The location was so convenient and the house is decorated so adorably! The back yard is so beautiful and well-kept! We enjoyed the pool and hot tub. Tons of little touches and well stocked kitchen. We will return!!
This was the perfect weekend getaway. The house is stunning and is in a great location. The backyard is a paradise and we enjoyed the pool all weekend. Will definitely plan to return.
great place to stay, very well set up, quiet calm neighborhood, and neighbors. all the amenities you could ask for, outdoor grilling, fire pit, swimming and hot tub. will definitely try to reserve again when in Kerrville.
5 star for sure. Secure backyard for pups , pool, hot tub, updated, everything works. We stay at a lot of VRBO places in the Texas Hill Country, in fact, we are living in one while we build a new house north of Fredericksburg, and needed a getaway wknd for our anniversary - so we chose this place. Soooooo glad we did. We will return for more getaways!
This is an adorable house with a fantastic outdoor space. I love that the property owner didn't burden us with complicated check in/ out procedures. The house was perfect for our family of 4.
From the booking to checkout, this house and host are TOP notch! The house is adorable and exactly as described...maybe even better. Absolutely love that my 11 year old golden retriever was allowed to swim in the pool. He doesn't swim long but he loves it! The hot tub was perfect temperature upon arrival, as was the house. This host communicates with you quickly if you have any questions, even stupid ones, lol. Best VRBO we have stayed at so far!
It’s not often you find a fabulous house in the city that also has a great outdoor space with a pool AND is dog friendly. If that’s your vibe, you’ll love this little gem! The decor is simply adorable, the house very comfortable and had everything we needed to feel at home. And the backyard…even in 100+ degrees…fabulous! It’s totally worth it!
I am from Colorado and needed a place to stay very last minute as my sister suddenly and unexpectedly passed away. The property host, Kim, was amazing to work and very kind and helpful. She was available by text message or by phone any time I needed her. She was always responsive, accommodating, and thoughtful. She offered to bring my family and I dinner one evening in light of the events. I needed to extend my stay by a night. I messaged Kim and she took care of it immediately. The home is absolutely beautiful and charming. I fell in love with the decor! Very clean and spacious. The property is well-maintained and is stocked with everything you need (cooking, sleeping, showering, doing laundry, games, riding bikes etc). We also went in an evening bike ride with the bikes there at the property. We swam and enjoyed the hot tub. Also worth mentioning is the outdoor shower near the hot tub and before entering the master bathroom-fully equipped with hot water! There is a separate “ carriage” house that serves as an office and small library. I actually found an amazing book that I started reading while I was there. The location is right downtown and very close to grocery/liquor stores, sit down and fast food restaurants, and much more. I would 100% stay here in the future and highly recommend it to all.
This was one of the most AMAZING places we have stayed. The host had thought of everything and went out of her way to provide the most wonderful experience from the moment we laid foot on the property. 10/10 and I highly recommend!!

This home is amazing! We loved the style, comfort, location, privacy, and fantastic host. We even had deer come visit the front yard in the early evening! We would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing Hill Country getaway!
House was darling and backyard was beautiful! Loved everything!

Do not hesitate to book this one!
This home is perfection and the host is gracious and available for any needs! The home is everything it advertises...and more! We had a wonderfully relaxing stay-topped off by a soak in the hot tub under the stars!
The house was perfect for what we needed. The only thing I was disappointed with was the fireplace. It was full of ash and soot, which gave the house a smoky smell throughout. Given the nightly rate, this was surprising. Otherwise, it had all the amenities we needed and the process was easy.
We loved our stay here. my husband and I were looking for a nice home with a pool. well this place went well above my expectations. the kitchen was stocked with whatever you might need. the bed super comfty!! the backyard is like your own little oasis. they have a privacy fence and a pool that was so fun in this texas heat. Kim the owner was absolutely amazing, if we needed anything she answered my texts right away! we didnt have any problems at all. The AC worked great in this texas heat. We will definitely be coming back
