Wonderful house for two couples with a great location. The only thing you need to do is make the key work on the front and back door.

Great Location, Easy Access
The house was in a great location and easy access to everything. It has been updated really well and is as exactly as described. We were there for a weekend and it had everything we needed. We will be back.

Hard to review
Nicely furnished and great location. Weird that 6 can stay but no proper dining table. 4 stools at counter and a game table for 2 in LR. Almost every coffee cup was chipped as many of the dishes. There was coffee but zero sweeteners. Never stayed at a short term that hasn’t had a few pantry items. Smoke alarms/carbon detectors strobed frequently during night. It would be difficult to stay here more than a few nights which is a shame because it is a lovely little place!

Would definitely stay again
Great choice for me and my husband and our 2 dogs (not completely fenced but plenty of area for pottying). Would also accommodate another couple nicely. Walk to the main drag, so very convenient.

Perfect Hill Country Home away from home
Beautiful staycation from San Antonio with my elderly parents and my young daughter. Quiet neighborhood, absolutely lovely home with 2 large bedrooms and en suite bathrooms. We brought our 2 small dogs which completed the family. Just 1 block off of Main Street and so close to the lovely Christmas decorations of Fredericksburg! We will be coming back for wine tours in the next few months!

Fredericksburg getaway
The house is a conversion of an old farmhouse. It’s located one street off of Main St. making walking to everything possible (it is on the west end so walks are long). The main house sleeps 4 adults comfortably though the second bath is fairly small and the shower tight. The main bedroom and bath are spacious. The kitchen is fair sized, modern, and usable, but you may want to bring your own pans if doing much cooking. There is no dishwasher. Overall, we loved the convenience to town and found it quite comfortable.
