Garden Cottage, Far From The Maddening Crowd but so close to the night life!

This 550 sq ft private cottage, built in the 1940's is 15 minutes from the Arts District, 7 minutes from Bishop Arts, 15 minutes to World Trade Center, close to downtown, but quiet & secluded, nestled at the end of a cul de sac on Cedar Creek in Elmwood, Oak Cliff. With private gardens, Texas natives, mature shady trees, front porch with chairs, it's a perfect spot to unwind and relax after a day of exploring the many sights in Dallas or Ft. Worth, or a comfortable retreat to spend on contemplation & reflection after a day of work.
Queen bed with high quality bedding, fluffy towels, robes. Large shower with quality shampoos, conditioners & soaps/shower gels.
You also have an outdoor patio with chiminea supplied with wood and seating as well as table & chairs for dining al fresco. You will feel that you are in the country but so close to night life. It is also perfect for honeymoons, with lots of privacy and romantic touches.
Right next to cottage is your own private parking under a carport. Right next to cottage we have just built a small dog run with a gate off of the porch. No big dogs.
Across the driveway is the main house where we live. We can offer catered dinners in the very romantic backyard of this historic home, rumored to be a haunt of Bonnie & Clyde, as it was a speakeasy in the 1920’s.
Come, relax, enjoy! We will treat each guest special with individually thought out goodies!
