The Cottage on Main

Your family will be close to everything when you stay at this centrally-located place. Our cottage is less than five minutes away from our famous and delicious Blue Bell Creamery. It is walking distance to Downtown Brenham. With the close proximity to downtown and location on Main Street, some traffic noise may be expected.

Our home was recently renovated having taken old features to create a newly unique look. Original hardwood floors. Old shiplap from home was used in dining room and bathroom creating a really neat, meaningful look. Bertazzoni appliances for a great cooking experience. Walk-in closets. Bath has marble flooring, marble/tile rain shower with bench. Fenced backyard with matured trees.

Guest access
Walking distance from Downtown Brenham where you can finds shops, restaurants and local festivities.

Fun in Brenham
The house is great. There were some things left from the last visitors that made it seem the cleaning crew didn't do a good job. The coffee pot situation was not good. Overall my sister and I had fun and enjoyed our stay.

It was the perfect little house for our group of girlfriends shopping at Round Top. The price was great and there are lots of amenities in Brenham. Well worth the short drive to Round Top.

Super Convenient Location with Comfy Accommodations
Very comfortable stay. The heating/cooling was nice. The water pressure was good. The furniture and beds were comfy. The place was nicely decorated and had modern conveniences. Initially, we had an issue with the keypad on the deadbolt but Ross, the owner, was very quick to respond and get a key to us in a matter of minutes. The communication was very courteous and a solution to the issue was resolved. As a result, our stay in Brenham was wonderful and we all enjoyed our weekend getaway.

Vintage Charm
This cottage was PERFECT for our stay. The home was comfortable, aesthetically pleasing and cozy. As another reviewer mentioned before my stay, the area does look slightly questionable but you need to remember you’re staying in a town full of history and older structures. We felt safe the entire time and enjoyed all of Brenham we could soak up in the small about of time we had. Ross is easily accessible and responsive when needed. Looking forward to our next trip to Brenham and would love to stay here again!
