Summary: Myself, husband, and 18 year old daughter were in town for TXST new student orientation. The home was neat and tidy. It’s best for two but we only needed the couch bed for one night as our daughter only stayed with us the night before orientation started.Location is super close to campus. You could walk if you don’t mind walking up a very steep hill. The welcome gift of wine and a 30 gift certificate to the Palmer Restaurant was much appreciated. (Side note the home is next to the restaurant which I highly recommend). I would most definitely stay here again!

Summary: My husband and I stay here every time we visit San Marcos. Kristin is awesome to work with and the food at Palmer’s (their restaurant) literally next door is always delicious. My fave space is the tiny, private patio out back. Perfect for coffee in the morning and wine sipping in the evening. Very clean and comfortable with a Hill Country vibe.

Summary: The Palmer’s guest house was perfect for our anniversary celebration. We ate at Palmer’s restaurant, excelllent food and drinks. I am picky and give the restaurant A plus! They were so kind to us and acknowledge our anniversary. We were walking distance from the square so didn’t have to uber which was perfect. The guest house was cozy and perfect size for a couple. Communication was best I have ever had. The bathroom is small maybe in need of few shelves for belongings but that is all. Everything else was fantastic!
