Quiet, private, luxe with a dash of cheeky. Nestled among trees on a street steeped in mid-century design, get away from it all or get work done. The comfy, clean and modern space is complemented by restored pieces, vintage touches and local wares. 2 bedrooms with ultra-comfy queen beds + dedicated baths, plus queen sleeper sofa with new memory foam mattress. Gleaming kitchen stocked with extras. Positively, delightfully Denton! Denton itself is a growing college city that has magically kept a touch of small-town charm about it. It's known for its spectacular live music scene, lively night life, gorgeous courthouse square, and its two major universities. Denton’s combination of history and culture, along with its convenient location just 40 miles north of Dallas, makes it a compelling travel destination for just about anyone. The space: 800 sq. ft of newly built comfort and luxury. 2 bedrooms each have their own bathroom. Pull-out queen size sofa boasts a brand new, luxury matress. One of our personal favorite features is the deck in your own private backyard, shaded by mature trees. Even in the heat of the Texas summer, it's a lovely and serene respite from the world. The Casita is located in the large backyard of our main residence, so we may even cross paths! You'll have access to the full Casita, the private walk leading to it, and the fenced backyard! We do our best to honor all guests' privacy and quiet - we're happy to engage, but we'll let you take the lead. Other things to note: We'll help make your life easier if you're traveling with small children! We can provide a pack n' play and recommendations for local sitters upon request. The Gato Bandito is a real cat, and roams the property freely. He's incredibly friendly and charismatic, but please do not let him (or any other animals) into the Casita. We love hearing of your Bandito sightings! ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Ice maker - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster - Water dispenser ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - Games - Smart TV - Stereo ### Outdoor areas - Fenced yard - Firepit - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Rock climbing nearby - Sailing nearby - Swimming nearby - Water skiing nearby - Water tubing nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Composting - Double-glazed windows - Energy-saving switches in guestrooms - Garden - Local artist showcase - Locally-owned and organized tours and activities - No plastic coffee stirrers - No plastic drinking straws - No plastic soft drink bottles - No plastic water bottles - Recycling - Reusable cups - Reusable tableware - Water dispenser usage encouraged ## Similar properties ![Fridge, cookware/dishes/utensils](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/82000000/81260000/81255800/81255764/e3468c12.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Brand new charming 2 bedroom Townhouse get away Denton - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Air conditioning 9.6 Exceptional 63 reviews CA $232 CA $278 total includes taxes & fees Dec 14 - Dec 15 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-14&endDate=2025-12-15&selected=81255764&PinnedHotelID=81255764&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/32000000/31570000/31567400/31567397/e8cce971.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### BolivarPlace whole upstairs 2 br/1 bath Within walking distance to Downtown/TWU Denton - Free WiFi - Air conditioning - Parking available - Microwave 9.8 Exceptional 84 reviews CA $159 CA $264 total includes taxes & fees Nov 23 - Nov 24 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-23&endDate=2025-11-24&selected=31567397&PinnedHotelID=31567397&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/102000000/101010000/101000300/101000219/ff60b90e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Cozy and Spacious Denton Getaway Denton - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi 9.4 Exceptional 60 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-04&endDate=2025-12-05&selected=101000219&PinnedHotelID=101000219&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/110000000/109350000/109342800/109342756/8da06878.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Farm tipi with Sauna and secret solar garden Denton - Pet-friendly - Air conditioning - Parking available - Microwave 10 Exceptional 13 reviews CA $119 CA $237 total includes taxes & fees Nov 23 - Nov 24 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-23&endDate=2025-11-24&selected=109342756&PinnedHotelID=109342756&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/103000000/102620000/102612700/102612604/w1020h683x2y0-3c432e8d.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Industrial St. Loft on the square Downtown Denton - Washer - Dryer - Air conditioning 9.6 Exceptional 8 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-04&endDate=2025-12-05&selected=102612604&PinnedHotelID=102612604&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/105000000/104410000/104402300/104402214/47f1f648.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Entire Home in Denton, Texas.
