The Space:
Unforgettable family reunions, friend trips, and wine country getaways begin at the Hill Country Hackberry Retreat, a vibrant house just 3 minutes from Main St. Fredericksburg. Your group will love the covered outdoor space with a flat-screen TV, hot tub, and gas grill. Play a game of volleyball on the sand court, then gather around the fire pit under a big, starry Texas sky. Inside, an updated kitchen and open, single-level layout make this home a great pick for your group of up to 10!
Inside, your well-stocked rental is ready for family feasts, movie nights, appetizers, and wine at the kitchen bar… and, of course, a good night’s sleep for everyone.
LIVING SPACES -
Is your group split between those who like to be outside and those who prefer the comfort of the indoors? Not a problem at Hackberry Retreat! Head outside to watch the game on the flat-screen TV… or cozy up on the sectional sofa inside. Let the kids run off their excess energy in the fenced grassy yard and on the sand volleyball court. Parents, you can keep an eye on them while you soak in the hot tub!
KITCHEN and DINING -
The kitchen will quickly become a popular hangout spot for your group (second only to the spectacular outdoor area!). Pull up a barstool to the sprawling center island and chat with the chefs while they work… or plan the day’s Hill Country adventures over your morning coffee. Fully equipped and stocked for cooking, the kitchen features stainless appliances—including a double-sided fridge, gas stove, and dishwasher—and lots of elbow room and counter space for prepping and chopping. Dig into dinner around the center island for 8 and the adjacent dining table for 4. Or take your meal outdoors to the covered patio, which has seating for at least 10 under the roof cover and string lights. Fire up the gas grill on the patio (also under the roof cover!) for burgers and seared veggies, and bring your s’mores ingredients to the fire pit for dessert.

Hackberry retreat worked out great for our annual girls trip to Fredericksburg. The kitchen had plenty of counter space for us to spread out dishes for meals and plenty of seating to consume those meals. The location was close to the Main attraction Street. The back yard with all the seating and activities available is a great bonus! Having three plus bathrooms was also very accommodating for 8 women. The host was very responsive all during the stay. We will definitely be back.

Cleanliness was just above acceptable, but not amazing by any means. Driveway is extremely dangerous and steep. It caused severe cosmetic damage to both vehicles. No warning was given about the driveway.Place was well stocked with plenty games and necessary items like dishes and towels. Walk to main square was not bad, about 20 minutes. Outdoor area was amazing, even though some things were a big old and could use replacing.

A quirky older house that is well set up for larger groups. Great bedroom set up and bathrooms. Wonderful living room and huge island for eating. The kitchen has most of the basics. Backyard is a bit rustic, but enjoyable. Close to town and all the fun in Fredericksburg.

Shortened stay
Read review from a year past and there were issues. Since that review there was a glowing one...the review from a year past was more correct. Dishwasher did not work at all. When I asked about it they said they were waiting on a new one. Not optimal when you are cooking in-house for a large family, nor were we told in advance about this. Water pressure was an issue as well. No one felt like they could shampoo it was so light. They were responsive with the issue, but said it was an ongoing one with the water heater. They did offer to send out a plumber on Xmas eve, which we declined as we had decided to leave already. They also suggested water pressure might be better if we showered one at a time. First, it would take hours for the 6 of us to take turns. And second, at the rates we were paying we should not HAVE to do so.On the positive side, House and yard were large and comfortable. Plenty of towels. Some lights were out - including many outside. Fridge was a bit dirty. There are loose boards in one of the hallways which made for some loud walking. These things really were minor, but when you add them to the above they added to the frustration.

Disappointing
The property is in poor condition—minimal hot water pressure affected the shower and dishwasher. This was not a family home, there were no laundry facilities available. Although Cozi people were attentive and tried, there was no resolution to major issues.

Owner was super responsive and so helpful! Really great time! The house setup was perfect.
There was some cans and cups left out in the backyard from the previous stay but we made sure to pick up and throw it out!
