Peaceful Concert Retreat
My BFF and I loved the serenity of this little cottage. It is very well done with a lot of heart put into it. We were in town to see CeCe Winans in Concert at Green Acres and the location was perfect. Will definitely be booking again in the future.

Pre-Christmas Getaway
My husband and I throughly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful little cottage! Our favorite part was the hot tub! There was a little confusion during check-in as I never received the door code, but luckily Alison drove up and helped us get in. The only reason I gave 4 stars on accuracy of listing, (and maybe it was my oversight) but I thought the cottage was very secluded; however, it sits in front of 3 houses. Despite that, we would eagerly stay there again!

Cozy Cabin
My husband and I stayed for our anniversary get away. We ordered the breakfast package and got to enjoy goodies from the local bakery. It was amazing. The place was clean and neat. Everything was well organized and notes were placed to guide visitors during their stay. We enjoyed our time

Wonderful Cabin
This beautiful, well-appointed cabin offers a lovely view, a great forepit to sit around and a hot tub. The cabin itself was absolutely adorable. They thought of everything with even having towels for the hot tub.
Thank you for sharing your slice of paradise!

Beautiful and Peaceful
It was a wonderful stay! The Cottage has such nice touches and finishes. They think of everything you could need. I ordered a flower arrangement, fire side s'more's, fresh fruits and pastries. All of it was phenomenal. The owner is very kind and accessible. The outside hot tub was so relaxing and the fire pit was so enjoyable. I recommend this place to anyone that’s looking for a peaceful getaway.
We enjoyed the location, we felt like we were in the middle of the nowhere but close to town. The place was quiet, quaint and the property is beautiful. The only downfalls are the bed is not the most comfortable and the hot tub doesn’t have much privacy.

Perfect for our Anniversary
We enjoyed our stay here so much! We came to town to celebrate our 15 year anniversary and this cottage was perfect! Such a sweet, peaceful, & well thought out place! We had everything we needed and enjoyed the hot tub. It’s secluded, but close enough to Tyler where we enjoyed a nice dinner. Will be back in the future hopefully!

Clean properly, nice neighborhood, exactly as advertised online. Bring bug spray if you’re staying in the spring/summer. Lots of Mesquitos but that’s the area.

The perfect little getaway
My wife and I stayed at Dogwood Cottage and absolutely loved it. It was the perfect quiet break we needed away from work/our baby and we had a really great time. The cottage was extremely clean and the host was very communicative. It’s in the perfect quiet area but still close to Tyler. We loved it!
