Elegant cottage with a private deck, steps from tasting rooms
Messina Hof Hill Country - Paris Cottage
Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
You'll be within walking distance of the Texas Hill Country's most beloved vineyards and tasting rooms when you stay at this Fredericksburg cottage, a charming wine lovers' getaway with a private deck and beautiful views of the surrounding countryside. You'll find several of the region's most celebrated winemakers less than half a mile away, while the restaurants, shops, and historic sites of downtown Fredericksburg are only 10 miles west. You'll also be just nine miles from Lyndon B. Johnson State Park and Historic Site, where you can fish, swim, picnic, and catch a glimpse of part of the official Texas state longhorn herd.
This bright and airy cottage, about 10 miles away from the heart of Fredericksburg, is part of Messina Hof Hill Country, a cluster of four private rentals just steps from the renowned Messina Hof tasting room. With lofty ceilings, classic furnishings, and central heat and air-conditioning, the living area is bright, spacious, and comfortable. Wake up each morning to freshly brewed coffee on the wet bar, which also features a sink, a microwave, and small refrigerator for storing your souvenir bottles. And as the sun begins to set each evening, step outside on your private back deck to enjoy a bottle of local wine and gorgeous views of the Texas Hill Country. After a day of hiking and climbing in the wondrous Enchanted Rock State Natural Area, return home to relax in front of the cable TV or use the WiFi to plan the next day's adventures.
Whether you're a wine enthusiast or a history lover, you'll find endless opportunities for entertainment in and around Fredericksburg. When you're not sampling Messina Hof's superb wines just a few feet away, you'll find a number of other excellent local wineries within a short walk or drive.
THINGS TO KNOW
Children under the age of 12 are not allowed at this property due to safety hazards associated with this being a winery and tours are provided daily.
We’re excited to inform you that this unit utilizes a comfortable style of bed-making known as Triple Sheeting. 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.
Parking notes: There is free parking available for 1 vehicle.
Please note: this home resides in a noise-sensitive area and the owners participate in our Good Neighbor protection program. Our smart home technology will alert our team if excessive decibel or occupancy levels are detected, allowing us to reach out directly with a reminder of maximum occupancy and quiet hours. This technology is privacy compliant, and only monitors the presence of decibels and devices-not any personal conversation or information. Thank you for supporting our efforts to be good neighbors!
Damage waiver: The total cost of your reservation for this Property includes a nightly damage waiver fee, plus tax if applicable (the “Damage Waiver”). (A discount may be applied for stays of 28 nights or longer, if permitted.) The Damage Waiver covers you for up to $3,000 of accidental damage to the Property or its contents (such as furniture, fixtures, and appliances) as long as you report the incident to the host prior to checking out. The Damage Waiver fee eliminates the need for a traditional security deposit.
More information can be downloaded from the "Rental Agreement" on the checkout page.
Due to local laws or HOA requirements, guests must be at least 21 years of age to book. Guests under 21 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian for the duration of the reservation.
