This was HEAVEN!!!We were looking for a place to relax and this exceeded our expectations. The sunrises/sets were beautiful and seeing deer every morning and evening was very special. The sky at night was breath taking. Peace and quiet abounds. The accommodations were clean, modern and everything we needed( and more) was supplied. The hosts were very friendly but not intrusive and really seemed to care that we were taken care of. If you're looking for a place away from the hustle of every day life this is the place. We will be back.

The rental was absolutely stunning—far more beautiful in person than the photos could ever capture. It offered such a peaceful, relaxing atmosphere, making it the perfect getaway. The hosts were incredibly kind and welcoming, which made the stay even more enjoyable. It’s about a 20-minute drive into town, but the scenic views along the way made every trip worthwhile. We even got to see quite a bit of wildlife, which was a special touch. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a serene and memorable stay.

Beautiful home with excellent views. Very comfortable stay. We really appreciated the quick and easy communication with the host. It had everything we needed for our trip. Hot tub was easy to use and just what we needed at end of the day. One tiny complaint was the dust that was falling down from the fan in the kitchen. Huge chucks of dust were falling everywhere and onto the table we were eating at. Also the air vent in middle of the house is very dusty as well. Hopefully a quick wipe down of theses areas will make someones next stay perfect! Thank you again

Accommodations were exceptional! Vickie was so easy to work with and super fast to respond. I’ve been to several VRBO properties, and don’t feel as though I’ve ever had such spot on descriptions of the property, detailed instructions on how to get to the property, and amenities available. Vickie, we appreciate you very much, and feel so blessed you shared your little slice of heaven with us!

The Verbo we rented was exceptionally clean. Owner made sure all needs were met. Goodies, chips etc were available on the coffee table , which were appreciated after our long drive. The deco was exceptional sweet the bored out the large windows. I’d love to return when we have more time to make use of the home longer.

The photos do not do this place justice. Vickie and Don were beyond hospitable upon our arrival. They have the most beautiful property and guest home. The amount of intention Vickie put into decorating the guest house shows and you’ll feel at home as soon as you step inside. We enjoyed our coffee on our private porch and watched as deer and goats explored in the distance. We intend to come back here again before we move out of state at the end of the year.

We had an awesome time spending a couple nights at this place. It's about 25min from Fredericksburg, but worth staying at for the space and views. I do recommend looking ahead on how to get there.

Super nice property about 20 miles outside of Fredericksburg with lots of animals and beautiful scenery. It’s a private, fully setup and stocked guest house with everything one would need except for food items. We would not hesitate to come back it was that nice!

A Quick Escape

Just had the best last-minute sister trip! We really needed a getaway, and this spot was absolutely perfect. Vickie and Don are such wonderful hosts. I got a bit turned around with directions, but Vickie swooped in to save the day! I wouldn't change a thing about this place. It was exactly what i needed to recharge-so peaceful and quiet. Waking up to those stunning views and sipping my coffee outside while soaking in the sounds of nature was pure bliss. Honestly the pictures online do not do this place justice. I'll definitely be back and can't wait to recommend this hidden gem to everyone!
