The Helen Louise House, located in a quiet neighborhood (city ordinance requires 10:00 pm quiet time), is only a 10 minute walk from downtown Fredericksburg's museums, restaurants, art galleries, shops, and wine tasting rooms. The charming 2 bed/2 bath house, built in 1950 and lovingly renovated and expanded in 2016, is perfect for 1 or 2 couples or a small family. You will appreciate the fully equipped large kitchen and wine bar, the sparkling clean full bathrooms, the light and airy screened-in porch, and the large and comfortable living room. Additionally, the property is fully landscaped with a large backyard complete with a 2-person hammock and the sound of a soothing fountain. Enjoy a picnic lunch or dinner outside on the shaded patio beneath a lovely, mature pecan tree. If it's chilly, warm up by the chimenea and watch the yard art in the hen house! You are welcome to enjoy exploring Fredericksburg riding one of the many cruiser bikes available in the garage. You'll love the small touches provided by us, the private owners of the Helen Louise House--from the bathroom amenities baskets to the wine and snack basket, your stay will be unforgettable!

    The property is in a quiet neighborhood and close to town, parks, and wineries. The kitchen is large and had all the utensils and pans to cook a Thanksgiving dinner. The three season porch was really nice to sit and relax. Bicycles are provided but we needed another day if we were to use them. The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms well equipped. This is a very nice home and we would stay here again.

    I had the perfect stay at a wonderful house located in an ideal neighborhood. The attention to detail was excellent, and the beds were very comfortable. The kitchen was fully stocked, and the beautiful backyard, along with the lovely sun porch, added to the charm. There was plenty of space in the living room, making it an overall fantastic house. The pictures don’t do it justice; it’s even cuter in person! I highly recommend this house and will be staying there again. The owners were amazing—easy to contact and truly the sweetest people. I appreciated them!

    This was the perfect place to reconnect with friends. The 2 beds and 2 bath was the right size for the 3 of us. The screened in porch made for a great place to relax among the serene setting and have catch-up conversations. The house was very homy, comfortable and nicely updated. We loved having access to bikes ready to ride and enjoyed touring the town on them. Beth, the host, was great to work with! We would definitely stay here again.

    We're a young senior couple and a young senior friend (we feel young') enjoying a weekend of relaxation and fun in Fredericksburg. We have stayed here before and thought the accommodations were perfect. The location is ideal for us--just a minute up the road from the Rockbox and downtown. In all, a very comfortable and clean place to stay.

Loved the large bottles of toiletries in the shower and complementary coffee, tea, sugar and creamers. Sitting on the back porch is like being in a park!
