Temple House | Escape to "Cardinal Cottage" in the Country with AMAZING Sunsets

1 Bedroom House in Temple

3 room Casita (entertainment room, bedroom, and bathroom), with access to pavilion and deck with views of Lake Belton that provide beautiful sunsets. POOL COMING SOON.
Your stay will allow you to escape from city into the country, but have access to city amenities. Watch large screen streaming TV on the Pavilion or in entertaining area of the Casita. On request, we will make available, Traeger smoker, gas grill, or two burner Induction stove. Inside your room, there is small refrigerator, microwave, and Keurig coffee maker. We want your visit with us to be an opportunity to escape the city (like we have) and enjoy the country. We have installed a 14" gel and foam queen size mattress on an adjustable bed so that you can sleep like you are in heaven. The family room sofa offers a pull out gel mattress, but we offer a queen size memory foam tri-fold mattress that greatly improves the comfort level.
There is a rough trail from our property to the bottom of lake. We are told there is great fishing, but since we don't fish I can only relay what we've been told from guides. During your stay, you are likely to see deer grazing on the property as you enter or leave. There are many varieties of birds including a lot of Cardinals as Belinda puts out bird seed almost every day. She keeps seed down in the pavilion so that you can put some out while you sip your morning coffee. You might even see the roadrunners running along the driveway or near the trail in search of their mate or food.
If all this sounds like a place you want to stay, contact us. We want to hear from you.
* The Cardinal Cottage can accommodate four guest during a stay, but it is really designed more for one couple. Walking through the front door will put you in the entertaining room where the sofa will pullout to a queen size bed. You'll walk through a doorway that can be closed with barn doors to the bedroom. The bedroom provides the only access to the bathroom.
* The Cardinal Cottage, pavilion, and deck are on my private property. No one other than my wife and I have access to the pavilion and deck – and while we have guest, we try not to intrude on your privacy other than sometimes asking you to share a glass of wine with us during a sunset. The Cardinal Cottage is a building by itself on my property.
* To get an idea of our location and to check distances; we are about 3 miles from the Lone Star Burgers in Moffat Texas.

Summary: We stayed here because of complications in our own home from a tornado. This was one of my favorite stays so far. The cottage sits on the owners property with plenty of privacy! They were very quick to answer questions! It was very clean and SO cute! The kids really enjoyed having alexa control the lights and tv. They recently added a pool and we loved sitting in it watching the AMAZING sunsets over the lake and then watching the stars. There's also an outdoor theater/ kitchen area to watch movies, listen to music, grill, and just hang out. Michael and Belinda were very sweet and made sure we were taken care of! We would definately recomend staying here!!

Summary: Michael went out of his way to make our visit incredible despite the heat and dryness of this summer. He had a bottle of Chardonnay waiting for us to celebrate our anniversary. He was delightful to talk to and explained about the wildlife they get there. The Cottage itself was so comfortable and beautiful. Food in the area is top notch as well. And finally, the sunset view is spectacular. Do not miss a chance to book here. It is so worth it!

Summary: Belinda and Michael are the most considerate hosts I've ever experienced. Everything you could ever need is available, and they go out of their way with extras--both inside the cottage and outside on their amazing patio. I had a wonderful time and will be back if in the area again!

Summary: Property is in a quiet peaceful location with views of Lake Belton. Very relaxing but with all the amenities of home. Wifi and tv worked well in the cottage as well as on the casita area. Michael and Belinda are very friendly and easy to talk to but also respect your privacy. Cottage itself is clean and comfortable and beautifully decorated. Had a wonderful relaxing weekend getaway to visit our daughter at UMHB and will definitely return for future visits.

Summary: Exceeded our expectations per the description and pictures of the property. We really enjoyed our stay The Cardinal Cottage! Michael and Belinda were extremely kind and accommodating and went out of his way to make our stay an exceptional one! The property and lake view were beautiful with deer around every evening and sometimes during the day. The gated property property made us feel secure. The cottage itself had many extras such as Alexa, Bluetooth in the bathroom, and comfy bed with adjustable head and foot as well as massagers. The patio and deck pictures don't do it justice. They are great! Very spacious. We would definitely stay again and can’t thank Michael and Belinda enough for making our stay so enjoyable!

Summary: Great place to get away for a weekend or a week. The Cardinal Cottage was perfect for the two of us. Sitting out on the back patio for dinner with a phenomenal sunset, view of the lake and conversation with Belinda and Michael, great ending to our Saturday evening. Belinda and Michael are such a pleasure and and we high recommend them as hosts. We will be back!

Summary: I’ll just write the txt I sent the owners as I was leaving Good Morning Michael and Belinda! I decided to head out early but My heart is a little sad to leave your lovely home. Thanks so much for sharing this slice of heaven with me. You truly have soaked this environment with your love and care. To experience your love for each other is medicine for my soul!
