Robert Wood Art Cottage - Near Floores Country Store, SeaWorld & Fiesta Texas

GREY FOREST COTTAGES: Robert Wood Art Cottage (#2)

You'll have all the comforts of home in this historic limestone cottage with all the updated amenities. This rock cottage is perfect for relaxing and taking a break from all the stresses of life or after an eventful day visiting SeaWorld, Six Flags, the iconic country music venue Floore’s Country Store or the romantic San Antonio RiverWalk.

Your rustic loft sits next to the main house of this historic property. This little pocket of paradise is nestled right on the outskirts of NW San Antonio and was home to the famous landscape artist Robert Wood back in the 1930's and 40’s.

THE SPACE

This historic rock cottage is a loft style with an upstairs bedroom furnished with a comfortable King bed, a nostalgic tin roof ceiling and lots of windows. (This is the actual room the famous British landscape painter, Robert Wood, used as his art studio.) Downstairs are an updated kitchen with granite countertops, a renovated bathroom with walk-in shower and an inviting living room with French doors that open to the rock courtyard. This cottage also has high-speed wireless internet access as well as a flat screen Smart TV & cable programming.

GUEST ACCESS

You will have access to a furnished outdoor rock courtyard with a waterfall fountain, or you can just sit around the fire pit during cool evenings. A washer & dryer are located on the premises should guests need to do a single load. You are also free to use our two nostalgic cruiser bicycles to explore the country lanes of Grey Forest.

PETS ON PROPERTY

Our Dog Dakoka has full run of the property. He is a medium sized Blue Healer mix and is super friendly. He will likely follow you up the driveway and welcome you onto the property.

( It is where Willie Nelson got his start and still plays every October. Market Days are every first Saturday of the month where you can visit are several shops and just enjoy the "Old Town" feel. Near the end of April or start of May - there is the Cornyvall event with small parades, carnival and even a

Had a great weekend at the cottage. A great place to stay if you want to get out of the city. The town of Grey Forest is beautiful. The cottage was great for my Wife and I. My only gripe was parking as my wife and I had to drive up separately, but that was hardly an issue as 3 cars can fit back there if your careful.

We had a wonderful stay at the cottage! It has a very comfortable king bed and great shower with amazing water pressure. Although we did not cook any meals during our stay, the kitchen looked fully outfitted with everything you would need. Beautiful property in the quaint town of Grey Forest!

This cottage is nicely located in a quiet neighborhood yet close to town and all the necessities. A great gas station and convenience store (QT) is easily accessible just a couple miles towards Helotes. Walmart and HEB, along with plenty of shops and restaurants are located nearby. A Par 3 golf course is also close and can be played into the night as it is lighted for night play. Highly recommend you bring some golf clubs.

Absolute perfection! Quiet, clean and cozy. I travel a lot for work and prefer a homier environment than what a hotel room can offer. This cottage had every amenity I needed and was so quiet and restful. The owners were very communicative and accommodating. It is so close to everything San Antonio has to offer but tucked away so neatly you would think you are in a remote hill country cabin. Will definitely return on my next trip to SA.
