Perfect for a girls' weekend

This little cottage in downtown Georgetown was just what we needed for a quick sisters' trip. It is perfectly located just steps from Downtown Georgetown, where we enjoyed various restaurants and shops. We could also walk to Blue Hole and San Gabriel Park. The homeowner responded quickly to a couple of questions that I had. As my sister and I said, when the trip ended too soon, we would stay there again.
