Deep in the Heart of Texas I San Marcos,Outlet Mall

Welcome to "Deep in the Heart of Texas," your idyllic retreat in the heart of San Marcos, where the vibrant culture of the town meets the tranquility of the hill country. This charming vacation rental, with its two bedrooms providing sleeping space for up to 5 guests, offers a perfect blend of convenience and relaxation.*Please note this property is set up as a duplex so there are neighbors in close proximity*

As you approach the bright blue cottage, the inviting front porch becomes a prelude to the leisure that awaits you. Picture yourself sipping a morning coffee, basking in the hill country air, and letting the everyday worries fade away. The porch, a private sanctuary, sets the stage for a slowed-down pace of life.

Step inside, and the interior unfolds into a haven of comfort and style. The open living space invites you with its cozy seating, adorned with an electric fireplace and a television, offering the ideal retreat after a day of exploration. The kitchenette, equipped with a fridge, toaster oven, and microwave, and two burner hot plate allows guests to prepare simple meals or snacks. When the day winds down, retire to one of the two bedrooms for a restful night's sleep. The first bedroom boasts a queen bed, while the second bedroom features a full bed and a twin-size futon. The adjacent full bath, complete with a shower/tub combo, adds a touch of convenience and luxury to your stay. Whether you're on a romantic getaway or a family retreat, Deep in the Heart of Texas ensures a comfortable and memorable experience.

Venture beyond the cottage, and a world of activities awaits you in the surrounding areas. San Marcos and Wimberley, just minutes away, offer a delightful mix of shopping, dining, and outdoor adventures. San Marcos, home to Texas State University, invites you to explore its vibrant atmosphere, indulge in shopping sprees, and experience the thrill of water tubing with a convenient shuttle service.
Wimberley's downtown square beckons with fantastic restaurants and unique shops. Outdoor enthusiasts can explore Jacobs Well for swimming and hiking, embark on zip-lining adventures, or discover nature trails at Blue Hole Regional Park. Canyon Lake, a short drive away, offers opportunities for boat and jet ski rentals, surrounded by breathtaking views at Overlook Park.

For a day trip, Gruene calls with its historic Gruene Hall, where live music and dancing await. Indulge your taste buds at the renowned Gristmill Restaurant.

Absolutely nothing like online listing.
The photos are photoshopped to make this place look nicer than it is. This is a double wide turned "duplex". I am not sure how this is legal at all whatsoever. This is a single residence with the owners living in the same house. This is listed as a house but it is nothing of the sort. You are renting rooms outs of someone else's home while they stay at the same house. Now that I got that out of the way, the flooring is unsafe when walking all throughout the rooms. My husband and 14 year old son tripped carrying the bags in the rooms. I tripped and skinned my leg. All because the flooring is unsafe. The "tranquil porch sitting to get away..." Is not tranquil. You are looking at a fence with a bunch of tarps on it not far from the porch. The neighborhood is unsafe and unkept. Google Earth this address and you'll see what I'm talking about. While looking out of one of the room windows someone was parked out back in a camper and they were looking in the room windows. This was the last straw. We packed our things up and left within 10 min of being there. We were supposed to stay Friday - Sunday. We had to go get a hotel. I'm hoping VRBO can refund our money.
