About this property

The Stone Cottage - Next to square, beach & more!

The Stone Cottage is a cozy, two-bedroom cottage bathed in natural light throughout. Fully restored, it maintains the charm of its early 1900's beginnings, but has been updated with all the modern amenities and tasteful decor to make your stay rejuvenating.

The space
BEDROOMS:
The master bedroom has 7 large windows and gets stunning natural light throughout the day, while floor to ceiling curtains ensure you have the privacy you desire (and the ability to sleep anytime you like). The queen bed features luxurious bedding, a memory foam mattress, quiet base, and two pillows options, depending on your firmness preference. The second bedroom, which we call the "Stone Room", is much cozier than the oversized master. It features two twin memory foam mattresses with luxurious bedding, a small chest of drawers, a suitcase stand, and hooks on the walls for hanging clothes. Both bedrooms have lamps or sconces to provide relaxing lighting in the evening. Ear plugs, white noise machines and iPhone charging cables are also included in both bedrooms.

KITCHEN:
We love to cook so the kitchen is fully outfitted with pots, pans, utensils, kitchen knives, and place settings for up to 8. Under-cabinet lighting provides a brightly illuminated workspace.

The kitchen has an electric, four burner cooktop, and full sized oven with a vent-a-hood for anyone wanting to practice their culinary skills. Olive oil, salt, and pepper are provided to help get you started. :)

For those who don't want to fire up the cooktop, there are a range of appliances including a blender for fresh smoothies, a toaster and a microwave for some late-night popcorn and a movie.

If you enjoy a hot, relaxing drink, there is an electric tea kettle, four different tea options (two caffeinated, two decaf), an automatic drip coffee machine, freshly ground coffee, and sugar.

There is no dishwasher but there is an in-sink drain board and a larger drainboard on the counter with an additional pullout underneath. Dish soap, hand soap and dish scrubbers are also included.

LIVING ROOM:
The living room has a comfortable L-shaped couch, perfect for watching movies or your favorite show on the wall-mounted, 4K HDR Smart TV. Through the Smart TV you can securely access any of your personal streaming subscriptions (Hulu, Netflix, Disney +, etc.). There is also a cabinet with books, games and a few small toys for kids! The entire house has access to high speed wifi through the private Stone Cottage wifi network, with download speeds up to 200Mbps!

BATHROOM:
The bathroom's beautiful decor includes a restored porcelain corner sink, small black and white hex tile, stained wood shelving, and hooks for towels.

The medicine cabinet above the sink contains a first aid kit, as well as room for storing your own toiletries should you wish. A small, in wall cabinet adjacent to the tub holds extra toilet paper and lavender bath salts for a relaxing soak.

Speaking of a relaxing soak, the shower/tub features a 15" deep soaking tub. The house is outfitted with plush bath towels and an on-demand hot water heater, ensuring that you have all the hot water needed for a refreshing shower or a calming soak with a good book.

OUTSIDE:
The house is set back about 100 feet from the street, providing a nice sense of privacy. As you walk out the back door, there is a secluded porch equipped with a table, grill, and outdoor seating. You can sit outside to enjoy a hot cup of coffee while listening to the birds or fire up the propane grill and cook up some juicy burgers!

Great VRBO!

My sister and I rented this cute VRBO as we were visiting relatives in the area. It was easy to find and this cute stone house has been lovingly remodeled. It has every convenience you could want in a home away from home.Checking in and out was a breeze and the owner, Bridgette, was very easy to communicate with. We would definitely stay here again!

Awesome Granbury Location and Cottage!

Our 3rd stay at the Stone Cottage--the only place we stay in Granbury! Bridgette is a fabulous host--very communicative, responsive and organized--she made sure we had everything we needed and answered any questions quickly. The Stone Cottage is a great place to stay--located only 1 block from the main square, everything downtown is within walking distance. Can't say enough about this place--and we will stay there again!!

Roomy Updated Stone Cottage

Loved staying here. I loved the historic feel of the house and wondering how small it may have been. It has been updated smartly and the 2 Bedrooms and the I corporated TV Den are perfect. The lighting fixtures are all unique, as is the kitchen cabinet - wait and see. This house is very close to the Business 377, which can be noisy at nap time. Hey it’s Vacation. But the bedrooms have heavy curtains to help. Bravo/Brava to everyone at the Stone Cottage.

Storybook cottage

What a sweet little cottage! The pictures do not do it justice. The host has thought of every single detail to make sure you have all you need for your stay! I love that she includes fans in the rooms. The location could not be better. It is a short walk to the square that has shops and restaurants plus just a minute from the waterfront beach. The beds were super comfortable! We would definitely return.

Adorable home and perfect location!!!

As sometimes happens, pictures simply don't do just to the actual subject. This is the case with Stone Cottage in Granbury. The house was adorable and everything was thought of for a wonderful stay! My two sisters and I were in town for a show at the Granbury Live Theater. The night we arrived we walked to the square (literally 2 minutes - I know the house description say 3 minutes, but we walk quickly, especially if shopping and libations might be involved!). The Square was simply magical with all of the Christmas lights and carols playing. We thought we'd walked into a Hallmark Christmas movie - although the hunky guy in the plaid shirt never showed up! Anyway the house was spacious, spotless, and oh so special...

Great Cottage

Great host. Check in and out was easy and contactless. Stayed at cottage for a convention. The cottage is located within walking distance of convention center and downtown. Making it perfect to attend the convention while also enjoying everything downtown had to offer. House was fully furnished and stocked. If you are looking for a complaint it would be the bathroom. It is very small, but serves it's purpose.

Granbury Get-a-way

The little Stone Cottage was perfect. It had everything we needed for our mini vacation to Granbury. First thing we noticed was the cleanliness, the beautifully updated kitchen, the comfortable TV room, and the large size of the main bedroom and closet. Even though I didn't cook the kitchen was well stocked with all you would need to prepare nice meals. The bed was very comfortable with nice linens. We really liked the hardwood floors (even though a little creaky which actually made them more authentic), the unique and beautiful light fixtures, and the cool corner sink in the bathroom. There was plenty of hooks in the bathroom and shelving had been added. It was a short 2 block walk to the town square that had plenty of shopping and restaurants. We highly recommend the Stone Cottage and we'll definitely check on its availability for our next trip to Granbury. BTW, the host checked on us upon arrival just to see if we needed anything. This little place is a gem!

Granbury vacation

The cottage was clean and ready when we arrived, and it had everything we needed for the week. The short walk to the square was awesome, as we walked to eat and explore. Her welcome book had walking maps of the area for us to access the great trail system in town. Bridgette took care of us well, and was readily available through the app to answer some questions that arose during our stay. -Kim and Kraig from Minnesota

Great stay--our second time there! Perfect location--1 block from the square for the parade, and the hosts gave us great info on where to watch the fireworks from, actually just across the street from the property! The hosts are outstanding--can't think of any better. Next time we are in Granbury, we will stay there a 3rd time!!

Girls Trip & Charming Cottage & Perfect Location

We enjoyed our stay at the charming Stone Cottage. The cottage was so clean and had many extras for the guests. It was the perfect location, only two blocks from the town square, and the 'lake beach' area was across the street. The hosts were very friendly and attentive to their guests. We will certainly be back!! Granbury was a great town to visit and close to many other activities in the surrounding areas. Thanks again for everything. Paula B. Sherry D. Linda B. Beaumont, TX

We had an amazing girls weekend. Bridgette thought of everything….so many plugs, sound machines, portable fans, bug spray. There was not an inch that wasn’t thoughtfully planned. The house is super cute. The beds and pillows are incredibly comfortable. The walk to the square was so close and easy (we didn’t use our car once we arrived). Highly recommend. And we will be back!!

About the host

Hosted by Bridgette Piatt

Host profile image
We both traveled extensively before we got married. Bridgette has visited much of Europe and Daniel has been to countries in every continent except Antarctica. Now, after 10+ years of marriage and two kids, we have continued to share our love of travel together. In an effort to instill this same love in our two young kids, we’ve taken them to places across the US, Central America and Europe. We both enjoy experiencing other cultures and meeting new people. Learning new languages, trying different food and taking pictures of all the experiences is a passion of ours. We look forward to meeting you when you travel to our part of the world!

Why they chose this property

After visiting Granbury as a getaway on weekends and holidays for many years, we decided to move our family here. We purchased two historic home just off Granbury's town square and worked for two years to restore The Stone Cottage. When we purchased it, it had not been lived in for several decades and was falling apart. We worked hard to maintain the character of the historic home while also making it comfortable by modern standards.

What makes this property unique

The Stone Cottage is in the ideal location to experience the best that Granbury has to offer! Located just two blocks off the Historic Downtown Square, it allows easy walking access to the biggest events of the year. The Stone Cottage is also just across the street from the City Beach, which is a great place to swim, rent a kayak, or just relax on the sandy beach and get some sun. There are also amazing trails nearby and we provide a series of recommended walking/jogging routes you can take. We are in the Historic Preservation district, which means you will be staying near and walking past some of the most beautiful and iconic houses in town. There are lots of great restaurants, coffee shops, breweries, and shopping as well!

Many guest also enjoy taking day trips to neighboring city Glen Rose, to explore Dinosaur Valley State Park or see the exotic animals at the unique Fossil Rim Wildlife Center.

The driveway is long enough to accommodate a vehicle with a boat trailer attached and there are two public boat ramps less than 1 mile away.

Upon booking, we also provide our guests with a curated list of some of our favorite things to see, places to go and foods to eat.
