Guests have full access to the main house and exclusive use of the private backyard. A separate, secluded back cottage is not part of the rental and will not interfere with your stay. On very rare occasions, the cottage may be occupied; if so, the driveway is shared.

We provide a selection of complimentary provisions to help you settle in, including coffee, tea, milk, sugar, paper goods, and essential toiletries.
Supplies are stocked for the average stay; if you need additional items during your visit, an HEB grocery store is conveniently located just minutes away on Adams Street (approximately a 5-minute drive or 20-minute walk).
Please note that charges for your booking may appear under “Warwick Lakeside Holdings” on your credit card statement.
We strive to respond to all messages as promptly as possible. If you do not receive an immediate reply, please know we will follow up as soon as we are available.

Our stay was wonderful—cozy, welcoming, and full of charm. The host was exceptionally friendly, and the thoughtful touches, especially the delicious cookies, made it truly feel like a home away from home. Highly recommended!
House was impeccable, a truly lovely restored Victorian style home, with all the modern convenience. Tasteful and with all supplies needed. Beds and bedding very confortable. Plenty of beautiful dinnerware and kitchenware. The group sitting outside was convenient. Loved the porch furnishing.
Beautifully appointed property and delightful stay. They thought of everything and we didn't event use all of the spaces. We had six adult high school friends reuniting and we all LOVED the Gold Haus. Beds were comfortable, lovely linens/robes/towels, good bathrooms, cozy gathering place, well appointed kitchen. All round fabulous stay. Each of us are planning to return with our own families. It will be great for adults and all the way to grandkids. Plus you can bring your dog!
What a beautiful retreat for a perfect getaway! We had a wonderful stay at this charming Fredericksburg home. The accommodations were fantastic—spotlessly clean, incredibly spacious, and just minutes from downtown. The charm of the home truly stood out; it was thoughtfully designed with beautiful decor and amazing attention to detail. The amenities were very well thought out, and the beds were so comfortable—we felt right at home. Everything was well-equipped, making our stay seamless and enjoyable. The host was super responsive and helpful throughout. We will definitely be coming back and highly recommend this gem to anyone visiting Fredericksburg!
