Fabulous home

Everything about this home was excellent. It was clean, furnished beautifully with homey touches, and ready for our arrival. Also the grounds including the pool was immaculate. I appreciated the pool and spa iPod directions along with community information. Our grandchildren were duly impressed with the foosball table. Thank you for a great rental.

Perfect home for our big family getaway

It was the perfect home for us. The convenient location, amazing grounds and space, nicely updated and decorated with that historic charm of Fredericksburg, just what we wanted. The heated pool and spa and back patio really made the whole trip. It was like being at a resort 5 mins from main street. I really liked having 4 or 5 gathering places in the house that could separate kids from adults or just give a little space while we were all together. Plenty for the kids to do as well with the basketball court and sprawling backyard. The kitchen was really well equipped and a dream to cook in. We made most of our meals there. We plan to be back.

Amazing house for a weekend getaway!

We stayed at the Sunshine Haus for a girls' weekend getaway and could not have been more pleased with the property. We had a group of 9 girls and everyone had plenty of room including ample bathroom space! The kitchen, equipped with one large refrigerator as well as a smaller beverage refrigerator was perfect. We ended up spending most of our time in the house gathered around the large island table (so we had easy access to our wine and snacks) or soaking in the lovely hot tub outside. The house is near enough to town to walk but far enough away that we could be a bit rowdy outside without disturbing the neighbors.

Perfect Home for a Gathering!

Sunshine Haus is amazing and Kelly was a wonderful host. She was very nice and responded when I had any questions. This house was perfect for our girls' weekend. There was plenty of space for 8 of us and it was very comfortable stay. It's a beautiful home, it was clean, spacious, beds and furniture were very comfortable, and the pool and hot tub were a wonderful way to stay cool and relax. Everything we needed and more was provided. Fresh, clean towels were nicely rolled up in an aluminum bucket for the pool, the Keurig with coffee pods and a variety of sweetners and a nice bottle of wine when we arrived. There were so many nice touches. If you have a big group, you will not regret staying here. It is a perfect home for gathering. Our group is already trying to figure out when we can come back with our families because we loved this house so much. The backyard is expansive with a playscape, basketball hoop, tons of space to run and it would be amazing for kids. We look forward to booking Sunshine Haus again in the near future!

Fabulous Stay!

Wow, this house is terrific! Perfect for celebrating a 40th birthday weekend. We had a group of 5 couples and the house could not have worked better for us. The pool and backyard are a dream! The kitchen is perfect for gathering. We had a chef come in one night and he was impressed. The main living area is spacious and worked well for hanging out. The host was very responsive and check in/out were so easy! My only recs (and I’m grasping at straws a bit): the beds are quite firm so know that going in, and for a large group (there were 10 of us), I did bring my own wine glasses because I wanted to ensure we had the right drink ware for the birthday dinner. We would 100% stay here again.

Great pool getaway

We booked this trip before the pandemic hit and so had to modify guest count - the property manager was very helpful throughout. It turned out to be a great escape - the house was clean, check in was effortless, and the family loved the pool. Can't wait to return in the future.

Relaxing by the pool

Sunshine Haus was a lovely spot (with lots of space!) to relax and enjoy the beautiful pool. The house and kitchen are very well equipped which made it easy to cook versus going out to eat. The layout works well for multi-generation families as there are multiple living spaces and room for everyone to spread out. Definitely recommend!

Susnshine Haus is great!

The house is just as it is pictured. It was easy to find. The long driveway was the best. No parking problems like we have had at some VRBO houses. Perfect location to everything in Fredericksburg. The house was big enough for everyone to have their own space, Dining room, kitchen and laundry room were spacious. The backyard and the pool were icing on the cake! We did not want to leave. Will go back and recommend this house to friends.

Host profile image
Hello and welcome! We are the DiCuffa’s. My name is Kelly and I am the owner and manager of Haus Together, a B&B small business, focusing on homes that encourage families, groups, and friends to spend valuable time together. Your happiness and satisfaction during your stay is my sole job. My husband Tony is a Sales Director who grew up in Fredericksburg. We moved here from Austin in 2008 with our three boys Luke (16), Mark (13), and Ross (10) to give them the same experience growing up that my husband had. Fredericksburg truly is a special place. We hope you experience that while you are visiting the town and the area.

Check out all our 5 star properties--Sunshine Haus, Admiral Haus, Flower Haus and Heart Haus in Fredericksburg, Texas and our latest property The Drop Inn in beautiful Pagosa Springs, Colorado. Thank you!

Why they chose this property

You will love this property all year round. This property boasts the largest swimming pool in the city grid. Sunshine Haus also has two fireplaces and a hot tub for cool nights. Finally, it is the largest privately owned property within the grid. Come stay and play in this large private estate.

Also of interest, this home was built by the first modern doctor in Fredericksburg in the 1940s. He and his wife got in a fight during the building of the house, because he wanted a bowling alley. With this, the house has a full basement the length of the house that once was a bowling alley. How cool is this?

What makes this property unique

We renovated this house with entertainment in mind, both inside and out. We annually host a summer party that draws 100+ people in our backyard and we have hosted other special events. The property is great for girl’s weekends, boy’s weekends, family reunions, large parties and more. Our goal is for you to enjoy Fredericksburg and to have a wonderful experience at Sunshine Haus.
