I first came to cottontails because my wife ordered something and asked me to pick it up on the way…read morehome from work which was mildly out of the way. They gave me a nice drive and it was not terrible to get there or home from the shore to the New Braunfels area. The store itself is in the end of a strip mall. Inside the store. It is fairly spacious and what I would describe as well organized. I browsed around some of the items just to see what they had and it seemed like everything was in really good condition. The item we got my wife called ahead for and asked if they can hold it for a day and they were willing to do that. Which was very nice because when you have a newborn it reminds me of the Steinbeck quote. The plans of mice and Men often go awry and we just couldn't make it there the day she saw the items she wanted. The woman behind the counter was super friendly and a pleasure to interact with. All in all we really like the store for a number of reasons. Outside of getting a great deal, another big concern of ours is the textile waste and product plastic waste from getting new toys, clothing and baby items. They often outgrow them quickly and while the items may be small when you're constantly buying new contribute to landfills. Shopping at consignment shops like this are a great way to help combat that by making sure gently used goods don't end up in the garbage. We really appreciate the store and will likely be shopping here for years to come

Truly a great store. Constantly restocking items, good prices, wide variety. Reviewers that are…read morecomplaining about rude employees and inappropriate music are not representative of the DOZENS of times that I have visited this store to BOTH buy and sell items. If you are mad because they wouldn't take your stuff, one of two things is likely true. One, your stuff is not as good as you think it is. Two, you did not read ahead to find out what items they are currently taking. Remember, you are giving them things you do not want. Don't be so arrogant to assume that anyone else will, let alone someone who would like to sell them. The truth is that this is a great store, particularly for sports related items and winter gear.

I just discovered this great place and am starting a garden this summer, so it was perfect…read moreserendipity finding it! The interior of the shop is full of beautiful, lush plants of all different kinds. Many are tropical which are grown in Florida while others are grown locally in New Jersey. They are from individual small businesses rather than big box companies which tend to use chalky soil and poorer quality materials that lead to a worse quality plant. The attention to detail is important for happy and healthy plants! I drove in from work about 20 minutes before the shop closed and didn't want to be a bother while the shop owner was closing, but Gabby was so friendly and happy to chat through closing while she helped me pick out some plants to take home. She could easily identify all of the plants I might like to try as a new plant mom, sharing tips and tricks for keeping them healthy and the types of soil I might need for house plants vs gardening. I walked away with two cute new plants and so much helpful gardening info! As I was primarily looking at the small plants, I saw they ranged from around $17ish to mid $20 range. There are also a lot of plant hobby goods for sale like books, decor, and soil. Tiny Greenhouse also has a bunch of social events during the month like candlemaking, sound baths, pizza & herb gardening, and ceramics! I'm so excited to return for an event and most likely pick up another plant!
