About this property
Luxury 23-ac Ranch Casita w/Hot tub!
Summary:
Welcome to Merritt's Ridge, a private and luxuriously picturesque 1-bedroom, 1-bath cabin on a 23-acre estate near downtown Fredericksburg and Luckenbach, and located less than 1 mile from Alamo Springs Burger Cafe and Old Tunnel State Park! There is nothing better than relaxing with friends and family at this beautiful property while listening to the birds sing and watching the sunset over the horizon while sitting in the hot tub drinking your favorite beverage!
The Space:
When the final yellows, oranges, and reds of the sunset have faded, you will have a decision to make. Do you hit Historic Downtown Fredericksburg for some fun and winery hopping, or do you hit Luckenbach and enjoy the live music and dancing? or settle into the hot tub while you watch ten thousand stars wake up one by one? On the other hand, why limit yourself? Our suggestion is to do them all, over the course of your stay!
-Parking: Only park in driveway. Do NOT park in grass.
-Please be cautious and aware of wildlife while driving at night in our area.
Guest Access:
✅ This property has special local compliance requirements which include a signed rental agreement, ID verification, and a security hold of $1000 (which is not a traditional security deposit, just a pending transaction). As an optional alternative to the security hold, you may opt in to purchase a non-refundable damage waiver provided by a third-party insurance company. The optional damage waiver is $59.99 for stays up to 10 nights, with an additional $1.5 per day for stays longer than 10 nights. Damage waiver purchases are optional.
To make this process easy for you, we use a secure and very simple, app-free platform. It is not an app, and you do not have to sign up for an account - it’s a safe and secure website. It also gives you a guest portal with all the info about the home and all of my favorite local spots.
The Neighborhood:
A true Hill Country oasis that spans 23 acres with stunning views. Located near Alamo Springs Burger Cafe and Old Tunnel State park where you can watch the bats!
Getting Around:
Biking, Ride Share, Car

This rental exceeded our expectations. If you are wanting to go to Fredericksburg and not stay in town, we would highly recommend this place. We will definitely stay here again. Lots of deer on the property to watch and the cabin was beautiful. Honestly have nothing negative to say!
Private small cabin next to main cabin. Hot tub excellent. Small kitchenette with hot plate access. No stove. Nice fireplace. Lived the country scenery and great get away from the city. Bedroom is upstairs. Downside is no bathroom upstairs and need to go downstairs.
Everything was very clean and nice. The house is well decorated and the property is beautiful! We saw deer out front each morning and enjoyed our stay very much.
We loved this location for our anniversary getaway. We felt secluded, but it’s only a 30 min drive into town. The bed and bath linens were so soft and luxurious! The fireplace was so nice, and we even had good cell service and Wi-Fi!
