Fredericksburg treasure!
We loved Fredericksburg and found Lynn and Jerry's cottage to be the perfect place to call home while exploring its rich history, great restaurants, quaint shops and breweries! The cottage is perfectly located in that it is close to Town yet very private. It is also very nicely furnished, comfortable and had everything that we needed and then some! Needless to say we really appreciated how super clean the house was. We highly recommend this home; thank you so much for sharing it with us!!

Relaxing cottage
This little cottage, tucked away on the edge of Fredericksburg, was a great place to enjoy the quiet, to see wildlife and still be just a short drive into town. Our host provided lots of little touches that made it so enjoyable. Thank you!

Fredericksburg cottage
This cottage was the perfect accommodation for a Fredericksburg stay. It was very close to Main St yet still felt as though you had plenty of quiet countryside space with wildlife. It had special touches that fit the town's heritage and was clean, spacious, and detail oriented with every convenience you would need for a stay. I would highly recommend and would reserve it again if staying in this area.

Cottage in Fredericksburg TX
Wonderful stay. This cottage goes beyond anything you might expect. The hosts have gone all out in the upkeep of this property. It is beautifully decorated and there isn’t anything I could think of that is not provided to make your stay more enjoyable. Located close to Main Street and yet you can watch deer from the back porch. It’s the best of both worlds. We wouldn’t think of staying anywhere else when going to Fredericksburg.

Quiet, Clean and Convenient
The cabin was very clean and had everything we needed. We had an excellent view of the stars, and it was so close to all of the fun things in Fredericksburg. One of our favorite things was the big bucket of deer corn that we could serve out for the deer. It was a very cool experience to see them up close!

Valentine getaway
The cottage was beyond awesome. The host created a beautifully decorated farm house. No details were left out. They provide lots of tips on activities and restaurants. The cottage had Valentine treats. When we arrived it was very warm and welcoming including lighting, music, and wood already set in the fireplace. The back porch had deer corn for several deer who came in the early morning and dusk Fredericksburg is an excellent escape. This cottage is secluded and on private property. The host and cottage are beyond 5 star

Great cabin
Very comfortable cabin in a quiet location, but convenient to restaurants and shops with a short drive. Interior tastefully decorated by Lynn and property remodeled and maintained by Jerry. They also provided corn to feed the deer right off the back porch! The deer apparently expect their Jerry and Lynn snack at least twice a day, so I complied! I would highly recommend this property.

Fredericksburg retreat
This cottage, the location and our entire stay was awesome. The hosts have made sure everything you could possibly want is provided. This cottage is immaculately well kept, cozy and comfortable. Decorations were beautiful; there was even a Christmas tree!
My husband especially enjoyed sitting on the porch, watching and feeding the deer.
I cannot think of anything negative to say about this cottage or the hosts. When we return to Fredericksburg in the future, we wouldn’t consider staying anywhere else.

Spotted Fawn Cottage
Lynn, & Jerry are gracious and personable hosts.
Our stay was nothing but a positive experience as it was in our previous visit.
The cottage is very comfortable, seasonally decorated, short of no details, close to the downtown area and restaurants.
Deer come up to the back porch fence and eat corn while you are relaxing in the comfortable outdoor furniture.
Highly recommend staying here.
