My husband and I stay here every time we visit San Marcos. Kristin is awesome to work with and the food at Palmer’s (their restaurant) literally next door is always delicious. My fave space is the tiny, private patio out back. Perfect for coffee in the morning and wine sipping in the evening. Very clean and comfortable with a Hill Country vibe. ##### Valier B.

The home was neat and tidy. It’s best for two but we only needed the couch bed for one night as our daughter only stayed with us the night before orientation started.Location is super close to campus. You could walk if you don’t mind walking up a very steep hill. The welcome gift of wine and a 30 gift certificate to the Palmer Restaurant was much appreciated. (Side note the home is next to the restaurant which I highly recommend). I would most definitely stay here again! ##### Janice D.

We ate at Palmer’s restaurant, excelllent food and drinks. I am picky and give the restaurant A plus! They were so kind to us and acknowledge our anniversary. We were walking distance from the square so didn’t have to uber which was perfect. The guest house was cozy and perfect size for a couple. Communication was best I have ever had.

The unit was exceptionally clean, and the outdoor patio was the perfect bonus. The owner was incredibly friendly, helpful, and responsive, and answered all questions quickly.

My daughter and I attended the Mermaid Festival parade and TXST football game! Too much fun!! We had a Friday night dinner at Palmer’s to kickoff our weekend and Palmer’s Sunday brunch to close out the weekend. Our food was delicious: crab cakes, chicken fried, bacon pasta, salads all fantastic! Service exceptional. Cocktails yummy too! Hostess, Kristin always available yet never intrusive. An Aveda concept salon is a few steps away. Downtown too. The cottage is cozy. Stay here if you can! I have, since 2019\. Never disappointed. ##### Debra B.
