We had an absolutely wonderful stay at The Emerald Door in Fredericksburg, Texas. The house was clean, comfortable, and beautifully maintained, making it feel like a true home away from home. Everything was exactly as described, and the attention to detail really stood out. The location was perfect, allowing us to enjoy the charm of Fredericksburg while still having a quiet and relaxing place to unwind. Communication was smooth, and the overall experience exceeded our expectations. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend this home to anyone visiting the area.

Awesome Property

Great floor plan… the perfect get away for a girls trip. It’s close enough to downtown for the tour groups to pick you up and drop you off. The decor was super cute and it was clean and well stocked. It’s bigger than the pics depict. Saving this spot for next trip to Fredericksburg.

Loved the house. It was clean, spacious and back yard awesome. We enjoyed the hot tub! Only negative was lack of a third bathroom. Even a half bath would have been nice but we made it work. Thanks!

Perfect Place

super clean updated and had everything we needed. The step down living room & other foundation drops were a little difficult- one suggestion: glow in dark duct tape instead of orange . Regardless we would rent this beautiful home again

Weekend Stay Review

Overall the property was laid out well for larger groups. The location was close to Main which was nice. Our only complaint was the cleanliness of the home. We were unimpressed with the cleaning services provided. As a paying customer we anticipated a much cleaner property… the towels also smelled like mildew…

Great girls' getaway

Lovely house, perfect for mature people or family with kids. 9 ladies stayed in the home and thoroghly enjoyed the stay. Neighborhood is quiet and we felt safe. Home is decorated quite well. We had a hiccup getting into the home as the automatic lock was not working correctly. Staff was easily accessible when the issue arrived and on the phone immediately to fix. Would recommend home and would return. Thank you

This is a house that I rented to celebrate my birthday. There is a table for 8- not 2 table settings for thr 12 staying annd we only had 9. The 8 dining chairs are metal and very uncomfortable. 4 metal bar stools also not comfortable. We tried to play games and do crafts with one standing or one sitting at a bar stool. It was terrible.We had hoped to sit outside by the fire pit, but it was quite dirty out there so we weren’t able to. The hottub is old. The biggest problem was that the floors are very uneven as they are different levels. The house was dark at 3am when I had to walk a distance to get to the only shared bathroom- I fell 4 inches down out the bedroom door as there was no light strip outside the fourth bedroom. They are aware of this issue as there was tape, but you don’t see that when dark-you open the door to step down. My friend wanted to take me to the ER, because I couldn’t breathe well. I had to cut my trip short And of course my friends didn’t want to stay without me there as I was the hostess. This house sleeps too many advertised for only 2 bathrooms and this room should not be a bedroom! I pulled a muscle and jarred my back. They wouldn’t give me back one dime for having to cut our visit short. I hurt myself at their place and they didn’t care. There is no description of the different levels and they need a ramp!! You should never have to open a bedroom door so that you can fall out of it! I do not recommend staying at this place.

Great amenities too! We enjoyed the hot tub, utilized the Apple TV & games and really loved the large, round kitchen table; perfect for chit chatting with the whole group!
