Secluded 1 BR cottage on over 7 acres 4.5 mi from Chappell Hill

Welcome to Cedar Meadows, a one-of-a-kind 2015 custom-built cottage situated on 7-acres of land with gardens all around. Surrounded by a white picket fence with decks on either side of the house, this property will allow you to enjoy the stunning views in any weather. The north-facing deck is covered and keeps cool in hot weather whereas the south-facing uncovered deck allows you to soak up the sunrays in cooler weather. The property features one bedroom with a queen size bed (plus portable crib or toddler bed made available upon request), one bathroom, a full kitchen and a combined living/dining area. There is a stackable washer and dryer accessible from the south deck for your convenience. Children are welcome with lots of running room and a tree-frog playground.

There are two lofts that the owners access by a ladder. The ladder will be removed and the lofts will not be accessible for the guests. This will ensure the safety of your children.

About one third of Cedar Meadows is forest, with cedars, oaks, maples, sycamores, and pecan trees among others. The back has been deliberately left untouched with an open lawn with a 270 degree view of the woods. The front is a 90ft square garden, with paths connecting four quadrants - one including a children's play area filled with playground grade mulch; the others grass and orchard.This is a nature-lover's paradise; with deer, birds of prey, and butterflies among some of the natural beauties. The flora includes bluebonnets, Texas bluebells, winecups and planted array of roses. This property will truly enable you to escape the everyday bustles of city-life offering exceptional tranquility.

The house is located 4.5 miles from Chappell Hill and 9.5 miles from Brenham making it convenient to access either town but giving you a feeling of secluded haven.

Quiet Getaway
This sweet cottage is clean and relatively new, so everything is in good working order. The instructions for arrival are clear and accurate. We enjoyed our brief stay at this pleasant, do-friendly getaway. The owner already states there is no Wi-Fi, so if you need to use your computer, you may want to bring a portable hot spot, because using the iPhone made the connection very slow. The road where this cottage is located is not paved, so my husband did not do the cycling he planned to do because of the spinning of the wheels on the rough surface and gravel/rocks. The picket fence around the house was nice for letting the dogs roam around and relax on the porches. Owner was friendly and quick to reply to communications.

Just what we were looking for a cute cottage out in the middle of nowhere to get away from it all.
Peaceful, quite property that was wonderful to spend a weekend away from the busy city. Small private cottage that has a great back porch for lounging and listening to nature. We were able to bring our furry friend as well which he enjoyed too. The grill was great to have for a nice dinner, but bring food with you as it’s pretty remote and about 20 min drive to anywhere. Espresso machine was a great amenity too. I would say bring a flashlight, there is a lantern there but a good flashlight came in handy and some outdoor shoes if you want to go exploring. We spent Valentines Day weekend here and would recommend it to anyone. I just wish they had a hot tub on one of the porches and then it would have been perfect. Also a note to people staying if you want to go to Brenham to see the Blue Bell Creamery they are only open M-F and not on the weekends.

Weekend In the Country
This is our second time staying here, and I can’t say enough about it. So relaxing and peaceful. I brought my 2 golden retrievers, and they love the open space to run around as well as going to the state park nearby. Natalia is so easy to work with, and her place is always clean and has a lot of kitchen items to cook with. Overall, I highly recommend for those who want a quiet, nature centered place to stay for you and your dogs. We’ll be back again soon!!

Thanks you for allowing me to stay at your beautiful, relaxing, peaceful cabin in the woods! The house was well stocked and very clean. Excellent bed!

Peaceful Stay
This little cottage was perfect for our visit to the area for antiques week. It was away from the bustle and completely peaceful and serene. Just what we needed! Although it’s tiny, this sweet cottage had everything we needed and close enough to Brenham for getting essentials. We’d definitely stay here again and highly recommend it for peace and quiet.

Good , very nice
Enjoyed the scenic setting. Dog especially loved it. Very modern kitchen. Great sunsets and beautiful weather. TV did not work, and we couldn't get the left door open on laundry room, so didn't use it. Left early because of previous illness and both tired. Loved roses and bluebonnets. Spent lovely time on back deck, enjoying the scenery. Very clean and comfortable. Not enough closet space,

Cozy and comfortable
Sweet cottage in a quiet spot that I booked for my wife and I for a Valentines weekend getaway. We greatly enjoyed playing a game on the back porch, the comfy bed, and the views from multiple windows. We had with us our infant daughter and our small dog. Though the house is small, there was plenty of room for her portable crib and her bouncer without us tripping over them or each other. We also appreciated the fenced yard for our dog, making it easy to relax and not worry she’d get lost on the 7 acre property. The house was immaculately clean, easy to locate and access, and we will happily recommend it to our friends and family. Oh, and the owner Natalia was warm and welcoming every time we spoke with her. Thanks so much for a peaceful, stress-free experience!

Nice property, very clean and quiet.
Great private weekend get away. Nice big covered porch. Only downfall was the unpredictable weather which resulted in major creek flooding over South Meyersville Road cutting off access back towards Chappell Hill. We really appreciated Natalia allowing us to arrive earlier in the day so we could get settled in before the heavy rain moved into the area.

Great unplugged getaway!
My husband and I and our two dogs rented the cottage over Thanksgiving. The cottage and grounds are just as described. The dogs had a great time exploring all 7 acres. There is a fenced area around the cottage but if you have an escape artist dog like mine, it will not contain them. We spent most of our time on the covered patio listening to music and reading. I cooked several meals. Great appliances! But bring ice. Everything was clean and cozy and owner Natalia was always available to answer our questions. It was so fantastic to be away from a big city in a very tranquil location. If you are looking for a place to chill, this is it!!!
