Gorgeous property! Exquisite garden in the beautiful historic district, fun to walk around and enjoy all the beautiful mansions that surround you. I would highly recommend this cottage. Not for small children though, as the stairs are very steep and the cottage is full of breakables.

Great price for a beautifully historic house and gardens.

The gardens were a complete hidden gem every step and turn... Easy to get lost! All needs, accessories and supplies have been thought out and amply provided by the host. Any confusion I had, was immediately taken care of by the promptness of the host.

Great place

The house is really cute. It was not a big deal for us but the listing said there were 2 doors and when we got there, we found out the 2nd door/master bedroom was an additional fee. The house is located in the historic area and the houses around it are amazing. We walked the neighborhood and looked at all the history near by. It was very quite. One issue we had we had wirh the place is the inability to remove sight rhrough all the windows. There are some 2 story houses near by and there was no way to block dBy from seeing inside. There are blinds in the bedrooms but not in the kitchen or hallway. As the bathroom has a really nice clawfoot tub. The water fets plenty hot. The house seemed thoroughly cleaned and bedding and towels seemed fresh. The house is not far from many things and i would say is just outside of the main town. Esther was very quick to respond to the few questions we had.We had a very nice getaway. Would look to possibly use this rental again if we decide to come back to Tyler.

Heerlijk

Prachtige plek, alles aanwezig, schitterende tuin, hier hadden we makkelijk veel langer kunnen verblijven. The Roseland Plantation moet je zeker bellen voor een rondleiding en de BBQ pit om de hoek zeker proberen. Op dinsdagavond hebben we genoten van heerlijk eten en live muziek.
