Super cute home, easy access to everything Fredericksburg has to offer. Next door to a restaurant. Comfy couch, perfect size for me, my spouse and one of my friends. Favorite part: the bathroom. Thank you for having local soaps and lotions, we had to go shopping for some on our way home!

Review

I liked the home. Did not like location. Noisy street traffic and cafe next door. Some cafe customers parked in our parking lot. Also, at the cafe, either customers or employees stood around in the cafe’s parking lot after 10 pm and talked loudly.

Awesome Althea

This cozy cottage a few blocks off Main delivers the best combination of antiques, comfort & modern conveniences. We chose Althea because of the pet friendly option, which is excellent, but they offer so much more. Kitchen and bathroom are roomy with everything we needed. I appreciate that the towels, bath mat and robes are thick, luxurious high quality and beds are super comfy. They even left snacks! Very nice, highly recommend!

Super nice house, great location.

We enjoyed our stay. The location is perfect; the house is ideal for a small family or even for a couple. The bathroom is super spacious, and in general, everything is very comfortable.

This house was fantastic and perfect for our needs! My mom and I were in town for a bachelorette party, but stayed separately from the group. The location is fantastic. It's possible to walk to Main St from the house; however, we chose to drive. It's very easy driving distance to the wineries off of 290. The house itself is so well-maintained and the decor is adorable! It has a really nice soaking tub and open shower. The retro appliances and kitchen is awesome! So fun! We appreciated the snacks they provided at check in too. It's shockingly quiet considering it's off the main road. I was actually in the front bedroom and slept great! Beds are extremely comfortable. The host communicated clearly with check in and check out instructions through VRBO's messaging. There's also a book with check in/out instructions and recommended restaurants/wineries. We would love to stay here again! Thank you so much!

No receptacles worked in the tv room except tv. The lamp bulb was burned out. There needs to be a small lamp in entry hall for evening arrival. The bathrobes in bathroom should have been white and they looked not clean and including white kitchen towel that wasn’t white anymore. On street so property was noisey, it was accommodating for us as we didn’t spend much time there.

Sweet and Spacious

Althea is one of four lovely houses at Halo's Garten, closest to the excellent restaurant next door Emma & Ollie's. Rooms offer lots of space to move about, nicely decorated, colorful and comfortable. Well-appointed. Comfortable beds. Soaking, whirlpool, deep tub is a plus. Enjoyed outdoor gathering space in back though my mother swept and cleaned the table before we discovered its charms. No seating on front porch is disappointing. Though located on Washington St, this is generally quiet except for trucks in daytime when guests are usually out and about. Walking next door for breakfast or brunch a plus. We did not care for Krups and would have appreciated water or plain glasses. Only stems and cups provided. Very clean, fresh. Curtains offer privacy but can be pulled back for lots of light and sheers appreciated. A little TLC on grounds and outside would put this over the top. Yes, we would certainly return. This was second stay at Halo's Garten. Last time as a couple we loved the Larkspur. A hidden gem.

A pleasant spot

A fine old-fashioned house—tidy and convenient to the town center. Beds were comfortable and the kitchen had most of what we needed. Only disappointment: no oven or stove top (just a microwave). The TV could use an upgrade (or perhaps the TV remote). The TV showed the icons for Netflix, Amazon Prime, and other streaming services, but even the computer savvy in our group were never able to actually select and open a streaming service. The breakfast restaurant next door is tops—but beware of the crowds. We recommend going early.

Was okay

BIG PLUS is they allow your fur babies! We stayed during a cold spell in February. May have been the first time the heater really ran, because it blew a LOT of dust into the house which made it uncomfortable to breath (allergies really kicked in). If you are over 6' tall and 200lbs, the shower is WAY too small for you and so is the tiny toilet... Road noise from the highway was significant. Has less privacy than we were hoping for.
