Triple Sheeting is proven to be more hygienic and is used by five-star hotels around the world. It consists of a fitted sheet, a flat sheet, a blanket, and finally a decorative top sheet. Due to this change, the pictures for this home may not accurately represent the bedding that will appear during your stay. This has not affected any other amenities or the amount of beds available. Due to the Hill Country location of our rentals, you may encounter situations with wildlife/pests. Please be aware of your surroundings, take caution while driving at night and supervise your children at all times while outdoors. In addition, all properties do utilize pest control maintenance on a regular basis, BUT this does not guarantee pests/bugs/critters will not be visible.

Rather poor communication for arrival. The location is okay. A fair walk to the shops/restaurants on Main St. The place is decent but could use a refresh.

Perfect location, perfect accomodations
So close to town, beautiful interior and comfortable beds.
We are pleased to hear you enjoyed your visit, Jacob! Thank you so much for taking the time to share your valuable feedback with us. We passed your comments along to our local manager to review and we appreciate guests’ preferences as a means to continually improve. We look forward to hosting your next stay!
We found this home to be all we needed fir or short stay in Fredericksburg this Spring Break. Cute house with all we really needed. Cute yard area was perfect for our small pup. Just CUTE! The kids enjoyed the deep, over-sized tub during bath time. We would gladly stay here again!
My kids and I had a wonderful time. The property was adorable and very clean. The only downside was that we didn't have a full kitchen, so we couldn't cook. Otherwise, it was pretty perfect.

Booked with Vacasa
We arrived to cobwebs all over the rafters, mismatched window coverings which was weird, our stay was for 6 nights…. They left us 2 towels, a coffee machine with no coffee, dirty comforters and pillow cases. Yard maintenance was terrible overgrown bushes that got stuck on you as you walked by, wood falling apart “yard art” out front. Great location but I will never stay here again.

Bring your toilet paper
Lots of flies and bug carcasses. We did find a flyswatter eventually but dead bugs in windows and bathroom. Furniture worn down, curtains fall down when you try to open them for light, and no furniture on porch. Slow/no response about complaints of bugs and told that toilet paper is not provided. Sheets are clean.

Roaches, uncomfortable mattress, inadequate hot water
For all the added fees coming up to $280 for one night I would expect the place to be immaculate. It looks clean and dust free but we found 3 dead roaches throughout the night and one live one. I know it’s Texas but it makes me feel that they do not have pest control. Also they should either get a decent water heater or get a smaller tub. Vacasa also had no way to call anyone directly one any of their signage, there isn’t a live person responding to texts, their AI seems off, and I’m NOT downloading another app to deal. Booked through VRBO so it’s super confusing to have to have two stupid apps. I was somewhat vetting Vacasa as a potential property manager but I’ll pass.

Indra, we are truly sorry to hear that you’ve had a less than stellar experience with us. We pride ourselves on providing the best possible vacation experience, and it sounds like we missed the mark this time around. We are pleased to report that deep cleaning and pest treatment were completed, and the hot water heater was inspected. Please know that our dedicated guest services team is available 24 hours a day via the contact information provided in your check-in email. We hope to have the opportunity to better impress you in the future!
Location was great! Cute cozy space. Looking at prior reviews, the shears on the window and the light coming in didn’t bother me. The used sponge left to clean the dishes bothered me greatly. They sell individually wrapped sponges, which is what should be provided. It would’ve been nice to have at least two Keurig coffee cups provided, as a starter package. There were none. I was expecting to go buy my own for my three night stay, but arriving as late as we did, it would’ve been nice to have at least two for the first morning. The bathroom amenities were a great touch; thank you! The bath towels and the hand towels were nice and plush. The face towels were not. They were paper thin and very rough. The studio was very clean with the exception of the cobwebs in the rafters that you can only see when you lay on the bed. My husband likes a firm mattress and pillows, but I on the other hand, like soft bedding. The bedding was hard and the pillows were firm. You can’t please everyone; I understand that. For anyone reading this that is curious and would like soft pillows, I suggest you bring your own.
Overall, I thought it was a charming little place in a great location, and I would stay here again.

Perfect little cottage!
This cottage is in a great spot, in walking distance of so many shops, restaurants, and small wineries.
We brought our dogs with us and this place has the perfect yard for them.
Can’t wait to come back!
Clean and exactly as described! Perfect for our stay!
We had a great stay- no complaints at all! Clean, cute little place. House was on a quiet street- reasonably walkable to the Main Street shops and restaurants for adults but with small kiddos we drove to park closer to Main Street and all the Christmas activities since we were sans stroller. The bed is comfortable and I always appreciate that in a VRBO! We would book this place again.
Wish they would put decent chairs on the porch. What is out there is about to fall through. We like sitting outside and enjoying the morning with coffee or evening with wine. It was very uncomfortable

Perfect location
It was clean, spacious and close to main. The front porch was relaxing and surprisingly quiet. Perfect girls weekend. Would definitely stay here again!
My mom, sister, our two little dogs, and me loved this place! It was so great for an overnight trip and had the perfect fenced in yard for the pups to run around. Good location, lots of character. We had a blast!
It was an amazing Anniversary weekend. Everything was as it said. Plenty of room, yard for small dogs and walking distance to main street. We will be staying again.
