Sweet house in a great location
We usually spend Labor Day weekend up in Coldspring, because our mom has some property on Lake Livingston, which is nice to visit. We've never stayed in town, but decided to give it a try. This is a charming little house with a rich and interesting history. The location is so convenient to everything in downtown Coldspring. The house is well equipped with everything one would need for a nice weekend. There was a small "Christmas in July" event going on around the courthouse square that is literally right across the street. There was live music we enjoyed from the front porch of the house. At night, we walked to the local restaurants for dinner. The town is very quiet after 9pm, as everything shuts down. Sunday morning, we walked to a nearby church for worship. The owners are extremely nice and communicative, and we would definitely come back again!

The Browder House Is The Best.....
The Browder House is just exactly like advertised. It is like a step back in time, except there was air conditioning.
Reading the history of the home, that has been in the same family since 1928 was great. Trying to figure out the original layout of the home was like putting a puzzle together. We enjoyed our stay and hope to stay there again. Thanks for a wonderful stay.

Surrounded in history
The owner was one of the most pleasant ppl to work with. The house is fully equipped. It was a life saver since my children were at a summer camp about 10 min away. It was clean and the thing we loved the most was the history of the home. It was touching to be staying in a house once full of family and love in the early 1900s.

Straight from a Christmas Movie
We were in town for a family wedding and it was the perfect house. I would highly recommend staying here during the Christmas season. The house was beautifully decorated inside and out for Christmas. The town square, which is just steps outside, is also decorated and the whole experience feels like you are walking into a Christmas movie. The location is ideal, because you can easily walk to the shops and restaurants in town, which we did for drinks, appetizers and breakfast. I found the owner did a wonderful job decorating and furnishing the home. It felt like they put real care and love into the details and it wasn't just furnished for a rental house. The house has history and it was so charming to stay in. The beds and pillows were very comfortable.

Absolutely amazing!
The Browder House was everything and MORE! Not only was the house completely inviting, full of charm and comfort, but was immaculate in cleanliness. Decorated wonderfully with beautiful furnishings and seasonal decor, we felt right at home. We enjoyed a night of watching movies in the livingroom together which is extremely comfortable with the inviting furniture. Dining room has plenty of space to entertain with a wonderful dining room table...and don't forget all the great board games and books available! The kitchen was well stocked with ample dinnerware, cooking items, etc. Beds were extremely comfortable and spacious. Both bathrooms were fantastic and the clawfoot tub was beautiful. And did we mention the great front porch or screened in back porch plus the darling backyard? You couldn't ask for a better host either! Debbie was so kind and gracious, even leaving us a handwritten welcome note! Honestly, we were so sad to see our stay end. We definitely will return to this incredible home! Thank you for sharing this amazing home with us!

First time to stay somewhere twice!
Never have I ever in 62 years stayed at the same place twice… well, until now that is. The first time I stayed with my husband, and it was so sweet and charming I had the bring my girlfriends. They fell in love with the place just like me. Debra is so kind and communicates very well. The house is well-appointed and wasn’t missing a thing. We highly recommend it. A+++++

Wonderful home, extremely well furnished, looks exactly like the photos
Really great house, we were glad to find it last minute and desperately needed some time away from the kids after a long summer. Easily the best furnished place we've stayed with extra blankets, pillows, and a fully stocked kitchen with tons of utensils, pots and pans.
The house somehow manages to be quiet and private even whjile located on the town square and nearby to quaint shopping and eating locations. We were treated to a live "bluegrass pickup session" just across the street, apparently a weekly thing.
Great stay, we will definitely look to book again.
