We’re so glad to hear that you had a great stay.
We hope everybody in your party had a great time. We hope you’ll consider booking with us again the next time you’re in the area.
This place was absolutely fantastic. The location couldn’t be better in relation to downtown and access to shopping and eating. There was plenty of parking for our party as we had four different large vehicles. The house was spacious and accommodating to our entire party. The kitchen had plenty of cooking amenities as we did a considerable amount of cooking and eating in. We loved this old country farmhouse. The backyard and pool area is what really sets this place apart with plenty of room to relax and enjoy a dip in the pool or lounging in the hot tub. The outside shower and bathroom with plenty of covered seating was definitely a bonus. We would highly recommend this to anybody looking to stay here in Fredericksburg. Our entire party agreed that we would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful, spacious, clean and cozy
Stayed here for our annual girls trip. We had 7 people and plenty of indoor and outdoor space. Enjoyed the pool and all of the amenities. Just a short uber trip away from shopping, dining, wine tours and spas. Would definitely recommend!!

Thanks for staying with us and hope you can return again soon.
An amazing property with many amenities! Since the pandemic some properties were bare bones and we needed to furnish everything (dish soap, garbage bags, etc) but we had soap in the kitchen and the bathrooms had shampoo, soap, etc. The house was even cuter than the pictures and had wonderful indoor/outdoor spaces. It was a great location for a girl's trip. Would definitely recommend and would stay there again.

Hi Theresa, thank you for the review and great feedback on the amenities you listed. Although we are far from perfect we try and do our best to make it a great experience for all our guests and it’s great to hear such great responses from our guests.
This property was a wonderful place for our family to be together for Christmas. It provided us with private and all-together spaces.
It was clean, quiet, and comfortable!
5 stars!

Hi Barb, we’re so glad to hear that you enjoyed your time together as a family with us.
We trust you’ll have a great new year and hope you’ll visit again.
This property was amazing. The pool was awesome, especially with the extreme heat. The ac is the house worked perfectly. The pool house especially with the full bathroom is perfect when getting out of the pool. The management was absolutely wonderful to deal with.

Thank you so much for your review, we truly appreciate it! We are so glad you enjoyed the farmhouse and all of its special qualities. We hope you’ll come and see us again.
We had a great visit at The Farmhouse and loved the home. Our favorite part was the back yard pool and outdoor living center although I must say the beds and bedding were so comfortable, everyone commented on how good they slept.
I need the name/brand of the pillows and sheets please! Our group will be back, we had a blast!
This house is so spacious and fit my group of friends & couples so well. Basically 2 living rooms which was wonderful. The backyard was AMAZING. So much space to hang out.
Very quiet neighborhood…. Neighbors are very close but we had no issues with that.

This is the nicest place I have stayed to date! What a charming house with every amenity! Cute, Cozy, Comfortable and Clean
There were 5 of us in total. My daughter, my 3 daughters-in-law and me.
The backyard was amazing and we had so much fun in the beautiful pool, playing games outside and roasting marshmellows in the fireplace!
Can't recommend this place more!!!

Amazing place to hold family reunion trip
Our whole family met up and stayed at this amazing house! There was more than enough room for everyone and the pool was very refreshing during the Texas heat. We were able to all fit around the dining room table to eat meals. The sitting area outside was ideal for those of us not swimming, but still wanted to be outside with everyone, and the TV out there was great for when we woke up before everyone else in the house but didn't want to disturb them. Whenever we all come back to Fredericksburg, we will definitely be staying here again!
We had 6 adults and 2 children. It was a perfect place. The pool is amazing. All of the mattresses were very comfortable, and I'm very picky about that. The outdoor areas were the best. Basketball court, hot tub, big grill, covered seating. The management staff was extremely responsive. We had an issue when we first arrived and they took care of it right away.

Thank you for your review, we are so happy y'all enjoyed your stay with us at The Farmhouse!
I always get a little anxious when booking houses because sometimes the pictures don’t acutely represent the property but this was the exception!!! This property was more amazing than we could have imagined. Impeccably decorated, comfortable beds, amazing outdoor space- it truly had it all! We had 8 girls in our party and we all had plenty of space. Will definitely be coming back!
