About this property
Block Creek Guest House between Comfort & Fredericksburg
Welcome to Block Creek Guest House midway between Fredericksburg and Comfort Texas. Built in 1890 the original structure has been enlarged and updated. The bedroom has solid windows on two sides and the bathroom replicates the early 1900s. It has not lost the flavor of a time gone by, a time when the world turned a little slower. Set in the middle of a large ranch, you will be in the country in a rural setting teaming with deer, turkey and abundance of birds along with a pond and two creeks.
There are no exceptions to the non-smoking rule! This is a non-smoking property.
We would really appreciate knowing your approximate eta.

We were visiting for a wedding in Fredericksburg and found this gem. Mother Nature didn't cooperate so I didn't see the stars but the flowers and birds made up for it. The hummingbirds were swarming everywhere - an amazing sight to see!! The cabin is comfortable and a great place to sit back, mix a drink, and enjoy the surroundings.
Property is secluded and away from the Fredericksburg fray, which was exactly what we were looking for! Every morning we woke to deer, turkeys, geese and birds galore. It was so tranquil and soul resetting. Sharron and Larry were super gracious hosts and became instant friends. Love, love, love the property and house and will return!!

This lovely property is nestled in the quiet, beautiful, peace of the heart of the Texas Hill Country. Even in the middle of the country, this property is very close to Fredericksburg, Comfort, and Boerne and their shopping and dining options. The hosts are two of the most lovely people we've had the pleasure to meet. We'll make sure to build in time to visit with them during our next trip!
My husband and I had an amazing stay here! It’s so unique and peaceful. I loved waking up to the deer right outside our bedroom windows and walking down to the tank. Larry and Sharon were very friendly and we will be back to stay again!! ❤️ It is a wonderful place to stay to get away from the city life.

About the host
Hosted by Sharron Jay
Hi, This is Sharron and Larry Jay and welcome to our Block Creek Guest House. We so enjoy having guests so that they can enjoy our property as much as we do. We have had this Guest House open for over 15 years and have enjoyed it and look forward to your visit.
Why they chose this property
Larry and I had been visiting this large ranch for many decades and when this property was for sale we knew we had to have it. This cottage is on our property. Our 1890 home is near and we believe the cottage is the same age. If you like rural, country living then this is the place to come.
What makes this property unique
This cottage is set on 27+ acres and has a pond which the men usually enjoy the most! We also have two creeks that you can wander along. We feed all year round for birds and wildlife. We have Rio Grande turkey and plenty of deer. Most guests enjoy watching the hundreds of humming birds and colorful songbirds that nest here. The yard is keep flowering for butterflies too. If you like country living you will enjoy it here. We have several outdoor settings that you can enjoy. We are mostly organic with the yard and flower beds. We try to plant only native plants.
