This place was one of the best rentals I’ve ever stayed in! The house was super clean and had everything we needed and more, the host (mark) was incredibly welcoming and let us hold a baby lamb! The livestock around the ranch was so fun to pet and interact with and they are so sweet, you can tell they are well taken care of. I will definitely be recommending this place to friends and will be my new go to place when staying in Fredericksburg.

The house was a cute farm style and great for our large family of mang ages. Minor flaws like broken blinds and air filter dirty. The goats and donkeys were a hit with the kids. We will Definitely be going back I just hope the game room is open for this stay. Also note staff was very responsive and nice.

We loved the porch! Lots of great visiting space. We cooked meals and had all the supplies we needed. Even baked homemade bread for our daughter to take back to college. Our only issue was some of us are a bit older and the soft mattresses caused some stiffness of a morning! The master bathroom is a great space. Love the historical touches!

Our stay at the Shady House was phenomenal. Every room was clean. The house was well equipped with all things needed in case we forgot at home. Thank you for all the snacks you provided. Those helped when we were waiting to have dinner.

We had a wonderful time during our stay in the "ranch house" on the property. The enclosed long covered front porch faced the barn animal area, and we were treated to roaming sheep while having our morning coffee, and were able to let our 2 small pups hang out unleased ( yes they are pet friendly for a small additional fee). The 3 bedrooms all had comfy queen size beds (one had a twin size) an open common living/dining area and full size/ well equipped kitchen. They even provide coffee and snacks and some breakfast foods in freezer and small boxes of cereal too. We had our own private fire pit but could not use it due to the county burn ban. The property is laid out like an old western town with a long facade touting a country store/blacksmith shop and a silo that is also a guest house. They also have a large event center which we were told also hosts Friday night square dancing when not booked for an event. We could easily walk to the river frontage, which had a picnic table, Adirondak chairs, 2 small kayaks and an inflatable paddle board too. It was a little slice of country heaven but just 3 miles south of town and easily accessible to all the area wineries. The hosts were friendly, welcoming, and eager to assist if needed. It was the perfect location for our small family gathering for the holidays. We Hope to come back!

The house was great with plenty of room to spread out, nice bathrooms, and a big, shaded front porch with rocking chairs. Our family loved riding bikes around the beautiful property, the close river access, and watching the sheep roam. It was nice to be able to bring our dogs and the snacks, fresh eggs, and other goodies shared were a bonus surprise. We hope to return next time we visit Fredericksburg!

Second time staying here but in different accommodations. Very comfortable with space for our reunited family. The baby lambs were delightful and enjoyed by all. The large covered porch was the perfect place to hang out in a rainy day.

Sheep and donkeys were super cute. We didn't catch anything during our fishing time, but the stay was very relaxing.
