The property was located close to main, making it easy to access shopping and restaurants. It also has a pet friendly policy which made it possible for us to stay there. The property manager was very accommodating and helpful.

Cozy cottage

This is a perfect sized home to spend an exciting weekend in Fredericksburg. The comfortable bed and sheets are so welcoming after a long day spent at the wineries. Enjoy a quiet morning enjoying your coffee sitting in the backyard or sit on the front porch! You’ll love it either way. Main Street and all the shopping and restaurants are only a short walk away, too. We’ll be back to spend another weekend at Fred Haus!

Perfect location

This place is just wonderful! You are within walking distance to Main Street for shopping and dining while being far enough away that it's quiet at night. The hot tub was such a nice touch and the yard was perfect for our dog. Can't wait to go back!

Such a cozy house!

We loved our stay at Fred Haus! The location was perfect, and even though it was on a main road, we didn't hear a lot of traffic. The bedroom is on the side farthest from the road so it was very quiet. The home is so cozy and comfortable and had everything you could need. The hot tub was nice but is getting a bit old. There is off road parking which was very convenient. We would absolutely stay here again.

Charming

We loved the charm and character of the Fred Haus. The house was very clean and it was the perfect location to walk to Main St. While technically private, the hot tub is in view of the front porch of the house next door so we didn't use it. The mattress on the guest bed also needs to be replaced as there was a large dip in the middle of the bed. We would absolutely stay here again though!

Would not stay here again

Bed was worn; we rolled to the middle of the bed. Bathtub and shower was too small. Three wasp nests on the front porch. Wasps were buzy building on other side of porch the next day. Although the house was very nice, the above problems should have been observed and corrected.

Fred Haus

One little issue. When we folded the blankets down on the bed there were little black hairs on the side of the bed next to the window. I would have changed snd washed the sheets but didn't see an extra set. It was also to late to call. The bed smelled clean so I brushed them out and went to bed. Loved the house and will definitely stay again.

Probably time for mattress change. Probably shouldn't have reserved for so many nights without knowing whether mattress had been maintained. The downpour sat pm caused the spa cover to drop a lot of material into spa but was enjoyable prior to that. May be time to replace cover? Or a cover's cover if exposed to elements. Thanks

Not what the pictures show

Outside- The pictures are not an accurate view of what you're getting. The yard has been neglected for some time and is overgrown with weeds and unkept bushes. The backyard is uninviting and no way would we get in the hot tub. The front porch could use a good cleaning and was unusable due to mosquitos. Inside- while very clean, especially for the age of the house, it's very dark. The bed isn't very comfortable and definitley needs all new linens. The shower is very difficult due to the space you have in it. I will give it location. We could walk to Main Street very easily.

Amazing Getaway

Staying at Fred's house was such a perfect choice. I couldn't believe how every detail was covered, and every single element was dripping with character. It was like an actual dream, it went by so fast...Would stay here again without a second thought! Enjoyed the full kitchen, claw foot tub, hot tub for 2 out back – and very clever, comfortably appointed furnishings. I also had an excellent experience working with Absolute Charm, the team is top drawer. Thank y'all.
