Unique rock masonry tells the story of a property in the family for 6 generations -- 1850 and a time when Indians defiantly called it their land, too. It's an oasis far enough from the city to hear only nature sounds, but just 20 minutes from Fredericksburg restaurants and Main Street wineries. Hang out by the firepit, grill and watch the birds and deer from the front porch. Soak it up in the 6-person jetted hot tub and later lay back in hammocks for a panoramic view of otherwise hidden starsystems. You're free of tall buildings, bright lights and urban noises. Bring a telescope if you desire, but an unforgettable dark sky experience is yours for the taking.

    Loved that the house is secluded and completely private. Truly a perfect star gazing location with the multiple hammocks provided. The house is Clean, well designed with ample storage and open concept. A little far from Fredericksburg town, but you can drive back to come & relax at this private wide open sanctuary. Note: Google maps does not direct you to the exact location of the house, while Apple Maps did.

    The house reminded me of my grandparent's house. I felt at home as soon as I walked in. Had the most peaceful weekend I've had in a long time. The hot tub was great, and stargazing laying in the hammocks was amazing. My girlfriend and I will definitely be back.

    Star gazers dream! From our seamless check in to our quick check out we enjoyed such a peaceful stay! The views seen down the long driveway are picturesque, as well as the views from the house. I awoke to birds chirping in the AMs and saw the various wildlife, plus the cows! Driving to and from town is a treat on these winding hilly roads. This house has amazing character and plenty of space. Everything was exactly as shown and described in the listing, and your host makes communicating a breeze!

    This house truly has everything you need for a relaxing stay! From pots and pans, to games and books, we weren’t wanting for anything! The hammocks were comfortable and sturdy — the view was incredible. The hot tub gave us no trouble. We can’t wait to book another stay and use the fire pit! This beautiful house is far enough away from everything that there was no road noise, no annoying lights, just absolute peace and quiet. We loved the cows coming in, and all the birds singing in the morning. The host provided clear instructions for accessing the property and WiFi, and was very pleasant to chat with! We had no issues whatsoever.

    We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this vacation home in Fredericksburg! The timing couldn't have been more perfect as we got to enjoy the stunning outdoor sky under a full moon—truly picturesque and serene. The home itself was spotless, uncluttered, and thoughtfully equipped with everything we needed, all in excellent condition. The host was incredibly responsive and provided clear, detailed instructions, making the entire experience seamless and stress-free. We’re already looking forward to booking another stay here. Highly recommend!

    This was exactly what we were after! Total isolation, away from people and crowds. We loved the fire pit, sitting in the hammocks under the stars and counting the meteors, enjoying the hot tub - and we had the BEST neighbors: cows, goats, and coyotes! The house is fascinating - we walked around inspecting the old rocks, fossils, and quartz that made the home. If you want quiet and your own slice of Central Texas, this place delivers. I'll always be curious about what's behind those second story windows!

We had a wonderful time relaxing and catching up with our brother! The stars were amazing! The house was well equipped with fresh linens, comfortable beds and a kitchen with everything needed to prepare a meal. We will definitely rent this property again and recommend it to anyone looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city. A unique experience staying in this old stone house!

    I came with a friend for stargazing. The weather unfortunately didn't cooperate, but it is DARK here. I live in (and usually observe from) a bortle 6/7 zone. But at this location, we saw so many more stars through breaks in the clouds that I could no longer recognize familiar constellations without the aid of a star chart. The Milky Way probably would have looked amazing if the clouds had gotten out of our way. There is some sky glow in the direction of Fredericksburg, but other than that, there are no lights to spoil your view. Bring flashlights. You will not be able to navigate in the dark here using light pollution :) If you are used to urban/suburban astronomy, and want somewhere dark to bring your telescope for a few nights, I definitely recommend this place.

The host was very helpful and readily available. Wonderful fire pit and porch area. We sighted deer and other wildlife in the area around the house. We enjoyed our stay.

    We debated staying closer in town to staying 20 minutes away and we were glad we chosep the Star gazers’ property. I’d advise arriving the first time in daylight, as it is a long private road where you don’t know if a deer or a steer will be greeting you.It was a good fit for our group. We were all cozy and slept well in the spacious bedrooms, glad we had the dining room to all eat together and play board games, and it had all the amenities we need to cook with. The weather was a little wild that weekend with wind and rain, so we were unavailable to use the fire pit of hammocks to gaze at the stars but appreciate having the covered shelter to park our cars.Definitely a great place for a reunion and space to stretch out.

    Beautiful property with amazing history! Perfect setup for 3 couples. Bedrooms are spacious & beds were so comfortable! Kitchen, dining room & living room were just what we needed! The chairs around the firepit were perfect but the wind was too strong for us to attempt a fire. We set up the rolling hammocks anticipating a beautiful star-filled sky but the clouds put a damper on that but we are already planning a trip back!! We did have a little hiccup but the host is awesome & he worked hard to make everything right! We definitely recommend this property & we will recommend it to all our friends heading to Fredericksburg! It is out in the country but it’s a short drive to town or to Enchanted Rock.

    It was a great secluded location. No lights around near by great for star gazzing and remote location experience. Our kids loved the open field to play and enjoyed the night camp fire spot. Sofa, floor and laudryroom sink was not clean properly. Otherwise it was a perfect getaway location.

    The house is aptly named with considerate hosts. In an ideal location, away from everything and close to Hill Country activities. You can see the Milky Way at night relaxing in comfortable hammocks, watch the sunrise on a bench swing on the front porch with a large cup of coffee and see deer walk by, and are within minutes to vineyards, shopping, and restaurants. The house is spacious and comfortable, in all a very relaxing place.
