House was perfect!
The house was perfect for our sister getaway! The only downside of our stay was the lawn was overgrown and the bike tires needed some air other than that the stay was great! We really enjoyed the porches!

Wonderful stay at a beautiful house!
If you are a fan of HGTV, you will see that this house is the "after," the big reveal on your favorite design show. The house is absolutely beautiful, and if you're like me, you'll take a lot of photos so you can copy parts of the design when you get home. But not only is it beautiful, it's totally comfortable. Every thoughtful touch you can imagine is there. We couldn't have asked for a better stay. The bathrooms have great tubs, clawfeet, and one corner tub that is huge. The beds are comfortable and there are lots of warm covers and pillows if you need them. The kitchen is equipped for anything. I couldn't think of a single thing that I might have needed that wasn't there. The yard and the porches are also beautiful. We had some very nice weather while we were there and enjoyed sitting outside in the comfy chairs. I can't wait to come and stay again. I was there this time for Round Top (very convenient but out of the fray) and I would go back just to enjoy the house. And I live on Long Island. ;-) You will not regret choosing this house. You will just not want to leave. Caroline was a great host (and, again, decorator!) and she responded within minutes to any questions we had. We didn't have many--there is a book that tells you all about the house, not to mention that Caroline provided all the information you need to check in and get settled before we even arrived.

Wonderful home. Excellent host. Plenty of towels and extras. Very nice rental. While next to the train track, the passing trains never really bothered us.

Great weekend getaway
The house was perfect for two couples. All the amenities you would need for cooking and lounging. Beds were very comfortable and everything was clean. The host was easy to contact and gave very clear instructions for checkin and out. Yes it is next to the train tracks but it didn’t affect our sleep. Overall, great location, welcoming and comfortable house that has been beautifully decorated. Would book again!

Beautiful home.
Wow! Absolutely delighted with this property. We were a party of 6 from the UK attending a wedding at the nearby ice plant building, which was only a 3 minute walk away. There is a HEB (supermarket) within walking distance and plenty of local places to visit. The rooms were spacious, beds super cumfy and knowing that we were British the host had left tea and biscuits with the informative welcome pack. We didn't need to contact Caroline once, as this is a professionally managed home with everything you need for a short or long stay. If anything we wished we stayed longer than 2 nights! Highly recommended.

Perfect Location and Beautiful Home
Gorgeous home, decorated so tastefully. Perfect location and closet to everything we were doing. Alot being said on reviews about the train, however, we did not have any issues with that. We had 2 trains pass when we were home and neither one woke us up, so that was a complete non-issue. It was very nice that the hosts had earplugs set around just in case, but they weren't needed for us. Bedding was super cozy and everything was easy to use and find. We will definitely stay here next time we are in La Grange!

Weekend Getaway
This house was perfect for our weekend wedding. It was walking distance to the Ice Plant Building which made it very convenient for us as wedding guests and my son who was in the wedding party. The train was an added fun thing to experience. It did not keep us up, as we were tired after all our activities. I would recommend this house.

The stay was great, beds were very comfy and everything very clean. We stayed because it was walking distance to the wedding venue. Only complaint is the train is a stones throw away so be prepared with some ear plugs.

What a lovely property. We enjoyed sitting on the porches and cooling off in the cowboy pool in the evening. It was in close proximity to downtown so we were able to get in some antique shopping and grab meals too. Thank you Caroline for having the house stocked with everything we needed for the weekend stay. Your house is beautiful!

This was one the best rental properties I've stayed at. Very clean and nicely decorated. Beds were super comfortable and there were plenty of amenities--coffee, towels, etc. The backyard was huge and provided a lot of fun for the kids. In walking distance to HEB, too. We spent Father's Day weekend here remembering our dad, who had recently passed. Thank you so much for the great stay.
