Beautiful neighborhood with several historic homes.

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 back yard has a 8 ft. high cedar fence, 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.

Perfect Getaway
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!

Charming oasis in downtown Kerrville.
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.

What a Gem
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!

Charming House
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.

Best stay ever!
I travel over 100 days per year and typically stay in high end resorts and luxury hotels. On occasion, VRBO has better options depending on where we are going. In this case, not only was our choice in a VRBO the best possible choice we could make, it was one of the best experiences we have had! Kimberly is top 3 best hosts I've ever worked with. She cares so much about your experience, your comfort, fun and making everything as easy as possible. She is top notch and will not hesitate to recommend her! The home is flawless. It is absolutely everything the photos depict and more. It is gorgeous, spotless, has every amenity you need and the back yard is like a resort. It's such an easy walk to town and yet it's peaceful and you are in your own little oasis. The best are so comfortable, everything works perfectly, the design is stunning and the pool is the icing on the cake. Thank you so much for the perfect stay Kimberly, we can't wait to come back and try your other homes in the area soon!! Johnny Pfeiffer

Quiet Getaway
This property has EVERYTHING you may need. Pool and hot tub area were immaculate. And lawn and landscaping are well manicured. We were very impressed with the luxurious setting and attention that was paid to the tiniest details. Quiet neighborhood but still close to downtown and pharmacy and grocery store. Perfect quiet getaway.

I will return to Kerville just to experience Garrett Home
Though I usually love most homes I stay at, very few set themselves significantly apart from the rest. Garrett Home does exactly that! . Kim’s home was exquisitely appointed with meticulously thought out details; impossible to express from photos alone. From the entry tile, to the welcoming living and dining rooms, excellent designed kitchen with a door to the screened porch inviting you to a perfectly balanced oasis where landscaping, pool, fire pit, grilling area, jacuzzi, and lighting keep you wondering if you should stay inside or out! I’m not kidding! Master bedroom spacious and peaceful was bathed in color throughout its curtains. The master bathroom with his and hers sinks and excellently tiled shower also invite your to the backyard with a door that opens to a deck with outside shower and stepping down to jacuzzi and peaceful fire pit inviting reflection. Communication with our host Kim surpassed any expectations. I cannot express how generous our host was. Kitchen had Krups coffee maker, filtered water, tea kettle. Bathrooms were furnished with the finest toiletries. The second bedroom has an adorable vintage claw foot bathtub in array of colorful decor. Do not hesitate when looking for a place to rest while visiting Kerville. Although cycling or triathlon events occur year round, the Garrett home is a place to come to just to be still and rest.

Awesome place to stay in a cute town with lots to do!
Kimberly's home is a wonderful place to come and relax! Her home is warm and inviting and contains all the modern amenities while still holding that antique charm. The hot tub was wonderful, and we can't wait to come back for a longer stay and to enjoy the new pool! Downtown is a short walk away and Fredericksburg is a short drive to enjoy more shopping!

Comfortable and cute - just what we needed!
This cottage is so adorable and just perfect for what we needed for our stay in Kerrville. The house comfortably fit 4 adults and 1 toddler... and bonus, we could walk to dinner! Kim was a gracious host.. checking in on us before our arrival and making sure everything was clean, stocked and easy to find. We will definitely be booking again next year when we need to stay in Kerrville for kid camp pick up!

Hill Country Gem
We stayed in this convenient Downtown Kerrville listing the night before we picked up our kids at camp in the Hill Country. It was darling, incredibly well-appointed, tastefully renovated, and well-located. Our dinner at the Cowboy Steakhouse was only 3-4 blocks away. The owner is very helpful and responsive. This is possibly the best vrbo listing we've stayed in (and we have stayed in quite a few). Consider this rental for your next Hill Country vacation if you are traveling with a party of four or less.

PERFECT girls getaway
Charming house with fantastic decor. Every single thing was perfect and there was absolutely nothing that could have been better. The clawfoot tub, premium shower, top notch beds, high quality towels, comfy pillows, the hot tub.... Everything was perfect! To top it off, my sister left a pair of shoes there. The hostess called us to let us know and then sent them to her within just a couple of days! Now THAT'S fantastic! You won't regret staying in this little gem of a house!
