The location was convenient to wineries and Fredericksburg. Beds were comfortable and everything was clean. We loved eating at Leroy’s so don’t pass that up if you come stay here!
Loved the location in Stonewall. The visit to Weinheimer's market was just a walk away and a real treat! Easy drive to Frederickicksburg with the feeling of being in the country. Very nice visit.
The house is spacious and clean. It was stocked with everything you need for a weekend getaway. Although the area doesn't have the best view, it is very close to the winery and Fredericksburg.
Overall, the house provided everything we needed. No issues with hot water for everyone’s shower and the water pressure was good. The beds were comfy and the house was stocked well with kitchen utensils. Only complaint is the floors were filthy. They look clean, but We all wore socks the entire time and the bottom of our socks were almost black. We would stay here again!
The place had everything one would need in a B&B. Very comfortable. Only complaint was the placement of the lockbox. It was WAY TOO HIGH UP and no stool to climb upon.

Reviewer Comments:
Great communication from the company and very responsive. The house was a great size for a girls’ weekend. Easy check in and check out. The home was clean and met our expectations; however, the water to the house had been shut off due to non-payment. The issue was resolved but there was no offer to compensate for the issue (except a bottle of wine which never happened). Again, great home and location.
This home is cute, clean and nicely decorated. Being located in between Johnson City and Fredericksburg made it convenient to get to shopping, museums, wineries and restaurants. The rental was well stocked with everything you could possibly need which made our trip feel like a home away from home. We were supplied with lots of extras like shampoo, body wash, coffee, paper towels, trash bags, spices, creamer, sugar, laundry detergent, dishwashing soap, paper plates etc. which was quite nice. We literally could of just shown up with our clothes and been set for a great stay. The AC worked great! The linens and mattresses were comfy as well. Our only complaints would be the road noise from 290 which can be heard inside the home. In addition, the mechanic shop and metal workshop which is directly next to and behind the house can be loud during the weekdays. It was difficult to enjoy the outdoor areas because of all the noice and the view of many construction vehicles, tow trucks and old farming equipment made it unsightly.
This was exactly what we were looking for! It’s a beautiful property with all of the necessary amenities. It was perfect for our family getaway, and we’re already talking about reserving it for next year!
This house was super spacious and very well designed! We enjoyed our time! The turn off the main road can be easy to miss but it is super conveniently located nonetheless.
This was a great property for hitting the wine trail on 290. Perfect for our group plenty of room to spread out and all the amenities you need for a weekend. Only wished we actually spent more time there, our schedule was too full for the weekend. Definitely on our repeat visit list!
This property was perfect for us! It's a little ways away from fredericksburg, but the drive was easy to accommodate, and they're multiple Vinyards within 5-10 minutes of the property. I'd definitely stay at the property again.
Right in the middle of the Texas Wine country right between Johnson City and Fredericksburg this was perfect. Not very many restaurants (closest is 20 minutes) so next time we might pack some meals and eat them at this place with some of our new wines from all the tastings!
The property was as described. Very close to lots of wineries. Very well stocked with plenty of kitchen and bath items. The big carports were nice as we had a storm come through and all 4 cars were covered. Great place to hand out and enjoy our family.

The house was extremely clean and had everything we needed for a perfect stay in the Hill Country. It’s just minutes away from multiple wineries and great restaurants. Absolutely love the location.
House is even better than the pictures! Super cute! The kids had fun in the game room. We stayed here as we were volunteer bottling at Garrison Brothers for the weekend. Less than 15 minutes away from the distillery and only 20 mins away from Fred. Will definitely book again!
This was the perfect house to spend a relaxing weekend away from the big city. We loved the proximity to some great winery. Our favorite the Rhinory is just over 1 mile away. We enjoyed shopping at the charming store just across the street. Most of all we enjoyed spending time at the house and particularly loved the backyard as we spent a lot of time playing soccer, baseball and cornhole with the kiddos. Wonderful stay. We will rent again.

Loved this location for visiting the wineries. Close to Grape Creek, Slate Theory, William Chris and Hye Meadow. Ubers are available but take a little while to get there so plan ahead.
