Roundtop Get-Away
We really enjoyed our stay at Kalina’s Cottage. The location was perfect being in close proximity to the Roundtop Antique Show. The cottage was clean, beds were comfortable, farm was quiet. Would definitely stay here again.

Needs a lot of work
While the property was well located for our needs, it is not up to the usual VRBO standards. First, the furnishings were a hodge podge of old flea market type pieces, but not in a charming way. The ONLY television was at least 30 years old (an old box tv) and we were never able to get the Direct TV to work, despite the property manager coming in person to help. The yard is overgrown with weeds and has actual vines growing on the side of the house. There is no outdoor area to sit and enjoy the weather. Even worse, there was an old vehicle and a travel trailer (plugged in) adjacent to the house which was creepy to say the least. The only positives; beds were comfy and sheets and towels clean. The property manager was very responsive to the tv issue and apologized for the condition of the property. She really did her best.

Peace and Quiet
This is the perfect private, quiet, peaceful getaway for anyone needing to get away from the world's noise. Owners were quick to respond when I locked myself out, reassuring and calm. Gary, my guardian angel was there in 10 minutes to unlock the door. I will be visiting Kalina's Kottage again and again for those "no noise" weekends we all need!!

Wonderful spot, accommodations and host
Our stay was very nice and a good location in between Brenham and Round Top. The host was very responsive when I asked questions. The only negative was the water - I don't know what made it smell so bad, but it was pretty rough. Would not recommend for those with sensitive noses especially.
