Beautiful Property Close to Main

Loved our stay…plenty of room to spread out. :) House sits on far end of west side of town which technically is walkable to Main St; however, most of the shops we visited were on other side of Main making a car ride necessary to carry all of our loot . :) Definitely will stay again. Thank you for your hospitality and for sharing your lovely home.

Magical stay

The house, yard, and pool were beautiful. The grounds and home were clean, well stocked, and organized. There were lots of pool toys and corn hole, and a fire pit. We enjoyed sitting in the backyard after dark watching the fireflies. The kids loved having the upstairs all to themselves with two big beds, its own bathroom, and a TV. We were mere minutes from downtown. We had a magical stay at this home.

Post Christmas Stay

A lovely home in a beautiful setting. We loved this house, it was clean well stocked (so much coffee) and a great layout. We enjoyed the hot tub, the billiards, and the patio. The dining table fit us all and it was not a bad walk to main street. Would def stay again!

Historic Fredericksburg

This property was a perfect spot for our long weekend getaway. The home delivered what had been promised and more. We relaxed in the pool and enjoyed the beautiful yard. The location is ideal to enjoy all the offerings in the area from hiking Enchanted Rock, picking fruit in a nearby orchard, wine tasting and of course enjoying the town. We started every day with an easy walk to Main Street to try a different coffee shop. We even squeezed in an evening ghost tour. All of this while having plenty of time to relax, cook and play games in this beautiful home. We will be back.

Like being in a country garden, but just a couple blocks from Main Street!!

Everything about this property was first rate. The home, garden/yard and pool are exquisite. The beautiful trees, flowers and singing birds are worth the trip! Comfy beds with beautiful linens. Fully stocked with anything you could want and plenty of room to enjoy with friends. There were 5 of us. The hostess is extremely responsive and goes over and above to make your visit perfect - even fresh flowers in almost every room!! If I could give this property more than 5 stars, I would!!!
