Why this property?
When looking for property to purchase, we immediately fell in love with the grounds and the comfortable feel of the property. Ava Haus represented the authentic heritage of what has been so lovingly preserved in the city of Fredericksburg. Also, the location is perfect for us.
It is away from the center of town yet close enough to be in Fredericksburg in less than 3 minutes.
Ava Haus allows guests to enjoy the benefits of the country and still be minutes from wineries, shopping, restaurants and the natural parks of the area. Guests can have a true feel for the history of the region when they stay in an authentic German homestead complete with the original well, thick limestone walls and even the original root cellar where the pioneers stayed during times of danger. At Ava Haus we welcome your entire family to include children and pets.

Nice and Cozy

The property is better than advertised. It's a very quaint cabin that was perfect for what we needed. I liked that it was outside of town but yet close enough to be able to get to anything that we needed. I would definitely stay here again on a future visit and would highly recommend it to me friends.

Cute intimate cottage stay

We loved Patty's little cottage. It was cozy and super cute, just big enough for us and our 2 dogs. She was very friendly coming by once a day to check and make sure everything was ok. Would highly recommend and will definitely stay here again when we are in town.

No complaints and worth staying in. Minor issues around getting in when arriving late at night and getting the TV to work but not show stoppers at all! Highly enjoyed our stay at this simple and quaint cottage built for 2.

Very peaceful and quaint cottage!

My fiancé and I stayed in the Garten Cottage and found it to be such a relaxing and peaceful environment. Pattie was very kind, easy to work with, and very flexible with us. We had a wonderful little getaway in her space and would most definitely come back for a stay in the future!

Cozy but needs updates

First and foremost I’d like to say the host was incredible and accommodating. The location is very close to Main so that’s a plus. We started off in the smaller romantic cottage which was really lovely. There was a plumbing issue so she moved us to a bigger cottage which I’m assuming is meant for families. The shower was so small and the concrete floors were not the best to walk on. The beds were really the only comfortable part about this cottage. We love the idea of all the vintage pieces, however sometimes it’s okay to upgrade a little so guests are at least comfortable during their stay. .

Fredericksburg Wine Tour

This is our 2nd year staying at this beautiful little cottage. We take a yearly wine trip for my husband's birthday and when we stayed here the first time, we were so taken by its charm and the cottage decor. It's perfect for a little weekend getaway and very close to Main St. It's always so clean and welcoming. We hope to stay here every year.

Quaint Cottage

The property is a small cabin with a bedroom and bathroom not far from the downtown Main Street area of Fredericksburg. You will need a car to get there but it’s an easy 3-5 minute drive. The check in process was really easy and the host communicated quickly. Highly recommend!

Good location. Good value. As described.

We were only there one day and it served our purposes quite nicely. They had snacks for us and the “instructions” are simple and reasonable. The mattress could use some updating, my only minor comment.

We just stayed at this property the weekend of May 20-22. The cottage is so quaint & cozy. We loved it and would definitely stay again. It's close to Main St so convenient to all the sites. Owner is super nice & responsive to messages. She left us a wonderful breakfast roll from the local bakery and also left orange juice & yogurt in the fridge. Can't wait to go back!
