Historic Adams Travis Haus is one of only seven historic houses in Fredericksburg on the Gillespie County Historical Society Tour in November of 2022. With features such as stone walls and high ceilings, this home retains much of its original appeal while still possessing the modern conveniences needed to make your stay comfortable. A romantic getaway for two located just a couple of blocks from downtown Fredericksburg's Main Street and Marktplatz.
Gather in the cozy living room in the Adams Travis house, which is furnished with a spacious leather sofa and multiple accent chairs. The exposed stone walls throughout the living room make you feel as if you've stepped into a bygone era. The charm continues in the kitchen, which retains much of this historic home's original cabinetry. A full kitchen with a refrigerator, stove, and oven makes extended stays convenient. All of the dishes, utensils, and cookware needed for preparing meals is provided, which can be enjoyed at the eat-in kitchen table or more formal table in the separate dining room.
The cool tile underfoot and soft neutral colors in the master bedroom make this a restful haven. The room is spacious and airy. Soft white linens drape the bed, while two ambiance lights hanging over the bed add a modern touch. A flat screen TV is located in the bedroom for unwinding with a movie in the evening. It is unobtrusive, allowing you also to unplug and disconnect from the world during your getaway if you so choose. Take plenty of time getting ready in the spacious bathroom, where you can pull a stool up to the extended vanity. The bathroom also features a fabulous marble and travertine walk-in shower.
Enjoy extended living space outside, where you can relax in your hand-made Amish gliders around the fire-pit or take a long soak in your own private hot tub. In addition to this home's amenities, all of the activities offered in downtown Fredericksburg are just a short stroll away. Located just a couple of blocks off of Fredericksburg's historic Main Street, you can easily walk to a host of shops, restaurants, wine tasting rooms, and art galleries from your accommodations. Pick up your favorite bottle of wine from one of the many vineyards and wineries in the Fredericksburg area, and retreat back to the privacy of the romantic Adams Travis house! If you are looking for a compound that will sleep up to 4 Fred Haus sits right next door to Adams Travis house, rent both for a couples weekend, Friend's getaway or girls retreat!
