Great Stay!

This house was perfect for our weekend get away to Dinosaur Valley State Park and Fossil Rim. Walking distance to the square - our littles loved getting ice cream at Shoo Fly Soda Shop! The house was immaculately clean and the kitchen well stocked. The welcoming cookies a very nice touch! The pictures of the backyard do not do it justice! It was a wonderful space to relax and enjoy. It was a little too cool to enjoy our morning coffee on the patio, but in a couple months …. In the mean time, the sun room was perfect!

This location was perfect, a 2 minute walk to the square. Adriana was quick to respond and the place itself was one of the nicest, coziest homes ever forOur family. Would absolutely recommend this as it was 5 stars all the way around. Extremely picturesque when walking out the back door about 80 steps to the clear water river!

We loved this place! The kitchen has everything you need to cook a meal, well stocked and clean. The back yard is landscaped so well, we were out there day and night. Plenty of towels, lots of beds, very clean. The hosts welcomed us and were in touch when we reached out.
Christmas additions were a nice touch!

Our stay at Rose Cottage was absolutely wonderful. The home is ideally located, providing easy access to all the local attractions while still offering a peaceful retreat. Everything was impeccably cleaned and well-maintained, and the host’s communication was excellent throughout our visit.The highlight of the property is definitely the amazing backyard. It was a joy to watch our grandsons play in the river and feed the ducks, and we spent every evening enjoying the bonfires.I highly recommend a stay at this home for anyone looking for a perfect getaway!

The perfect place to stay with a family in Glen Rose. The house is fantastic, and the backyard is its equal. The yard is beautifully landscaped, has many places to sit, a slide, a goldfish pond, swings, BBQ grill, and extends down to the Paluzy river. It is very close to downtown, and near everything in Glen Rose. It is on the same street as The Big Rocks Park on the river, and the State Park and Dinosaur World (if you have small children. Our host was fantastic!

Family reunion

Very convenient location. Beautiful yard that has river access. We spent most of our time outside enjoying the property. The only problem we had with the house is that it had two bathrooms but one only had a bathtub. This is the only improvement that we would’ve wanted with this property.

This house is in a great location. You can see downtown Glen Rose from the front porch. The backyard is beautiful! There's a lot of stairs in the yard, but you can go over a little bridge and into the parking lot next door to access the backyard without going down all the steps. We were grateful for that since my mother is older and would have had trouble otherwise. The inside is very clean and well maintained. We really enjoyed our stay and would gladly rent this house again.

Fun Family Memorial Day Weekend

We loved our stay, the house, local attractions and local restaurants. The backyard was amazing! The adults and young kids were drawn out there multiple times a day. The host was very helpful with the couple of questions we had. Leaving the driveway wasn't always the fastest because of heavier traffic but it was a major holiday weekend. We're looking forward to our next visit.

Perfect little getaway

The house was adorable and cozy and they even hung a birthday sign for the birthday girls. A couple of suggestions: put something to show guests about the step going out to indoor patio area (several of us almost fell); add a coffee pot. There were 10 women and we quickly ran out of the pods. We had a great time and will most likely come back in the Spring.

Beautiful home & property!!

My husband and I stayed here with our kids my two siblings and their kids. It was the perfect place to stay in Glen Rose with family! The house is older but very well maintained, stocked and beautifully decorated. The yard was so pretty and serene! There’s a small creek that runs right through the yard with minnows and crawfish. It runs off into the Paluxy River where the ducks, geese and turtle greeted us every morning. We walked down to the square several times to shop and grab a sweet treat! We were also able to tube down to Big Rocks park from the house! Highly recommend if you’re looking for a larger place to stay in Glen Rose!

This is the 2nd year in a row we have stayed here. It is perfect and everything that is advertised. The house is great and the river is beautiful. The owners left us fresh eggs and homemade sourdough bread. We would recommend this house to anyone wanting to enjoy Glen Rose.

This place was absolutely gorgeous! We showed up as it was lightly raining and was able to see the beautiful creak flowing straight to the back where the river is. 11/10 would definitely recommend. My in laws and all of our kiddos stayed for 3 nights and enjoyed the backyard the entire time. Perfect for the small kids to splash around in the river and run around. The house was perfect to spend quality time and relax in. Plenty of space for our big family and overall loved this entire mini vaca. We definitely will book again! Thank you so much!
