No receptacles worked in the tv room except tv. The lamp bulb was burned out. There needs to be a small lamp in entry hall for evening arrival. The bathrobes in bathroom should have been white and they looked not clean and including white kitchen towel that wasn’t white anymore. On street so property was noisey, it was accommodating for us as we didn’t spend much time there.

Super nice house, great location.

We enjoyed our stay. The location is perfect; the house is ideal for a small family or even for a couple. The bathroom is super spacious, and in general, everything is very comfortable.

I liked the home. Did not like location. Noisy street traffic and cafe next door. Some cafe customers parked in our parking lot. Also, at the cafe, either customers or employees stood around in the cafe’s parking lot after 10 pm and talked loudly.

Cute VRBO

Super cute home, easy access to everything Fredericksburg has to offer. Next door to a restaurant. Comfy couch, perfect size for me, my spouse and one of my friends. Favorite part: the bathroom. Thank you for having local soaps and lotions, we had to go shopping for some on our way home!

A pleasant spot

A fine old-fashioned house—tidy and convenient to the town center. Beds were comfortable and the kitchen had most of what we needed. Only disappointment: no oven or stove top (just a microwave). The TV could use an upgrade (or perhaps the TV remote). The TV showed the icons for Netflix, Amazon Prime, and other streaming services, but even the computer savvy in our group were never able to actually select and open a streaming service. The breakfast restaurant next door is tops—but beware of the crowds. We recommend going early.

Was okay

BIG PLUS is they allow your fur babies! We stayed during a cold spell in February. May have been the first time the heater really ran, because it blew a LOT of dust into the house which made it uncomfortable to breath (allergies really kicked in). If you are over 6' tall and 200lbs, the shower is WAY too small for you and so is the tiny toilet... Road noise from the highway was significant. Has less privacy than we were hoping for.

A great place to stay!

The home was lovely. Clean and spacious for a family of 3 and our dog. We could walk to Main Street- it’s a little long but doable. Will definitely stay here again.
