    The home was warm and inviting. Our dog loved the large fenced yard. I really liked the security gated driveway. The location was great in a quiet neighborhood close to all main roads but far enough away to not have any of the traffic. We will definitely stay here again when in Fredricksburg. Really nice rooms with plenty of space for all.

    We stayed in this lovely cottage last year for my husband's birthday, and he wanted to return for his birthday this year. The property is adorable, well cared for, comfortable, clean, the yard is lovely and fully fenced and the neighborhood is quiet and safe. The home is stocked with snacks and drinks and bathroom luxuries and a lovely coffee bar. We loved it the first time and could not wait to return this time. Excellent owner communication. Just a great property - HIGHLY recommend.

    The property was exactly as described—clean, cozy, and thoughtfully equipped with everything we needed. The location was ideal, just a short walk from local shops and restaurants. Stephanie was an exceptional host. She was quick to respond to any questions and provided great recommendations for things to do in the area. She knew we were celebrating a birthday, we arrived to cupcakes, thank you Stephanie! I felt completely at home and would absolutely stay here again. Thank you for a fantastic experience!

    We planned a mini vacay weekend and rented 3 different homes for the 11 of us. This was the one where my husband and I stayed, and it was perfect. Stephanie thought of all the little extras to make it a relaxing place to stay. The house was spotless, and the street was very quiet. Our weekend included nice temps, and it was windy. Great for walking Main Street. We highly recommend this house for your Fredericksburg stay.

    Stephanie was the best VRBO host I've had! The next-level service of sundries, drinks, K-cups, etc., was much appreciated. Although not an easy walk to Main St, the drive was swift and simple. Pet-friendly is more like PET-LOVING...bowls for food/water and extra leashes/toys were available. Simple check-out instructions as well. Despite the record heat, we had a blast! THANKS!
