Beautiful Views
My wife and I came here for the first time over fathers day weekend. We like secluded places where we can relax in peace on a nice patio. This place definitely fit the bill. The place was clean and well kept. The patio and views were great. There was a nice breeze in the evening to make it very relaxing. We will be back for sure.

This was our second stay at this property, and this experience was just as wonderful as the first. James is an accommodating and responsive host. The location of the home overlooks a beautiful, serene pasture. The inside is spotless and everything is in such great condition. The bed is comfortable. The kitchen is well-appointed. The large deck/patio is a great place to relax and hang out. Thanks, James, for giving us a great place to stay!!

Beautiful Cabin Getaway
We had a wonderful time this cabin. James was very helpful and suggested a couple of places to eat, Camp Verde General Store(about 45 mins away) was an excellent place to eat lunch. The cabin is off the highway and road and was very relaxing. We very much enjoyed the hummingbird feeder as in the morning and evening they flocked to it. I was able to sit right next to it(2-3 ft) very still and they still came. We will be coming back here again. Thank you James.

Absolute-ly Great!
My wife and I really enjoyed the cottage in all aspects: hospitality of Jack (host), cleanliness of the cottage, creature comforts, location - everything was just great. For a physically small cottage, there was more than enough room. The rooms were well laid out and the decorating was very homey and stylish. I was surprised at all the thought-out details; they obviously planned this cottage with us, the renters, in mind. From the customized welcome board to the wine glasses decorated and waiting to the (surprise!) toe heater in the bathroom to the extra wide deck - WOW! And the bed was so inviting and comfortable. We slept so well. Jack’s property was so quiet and located away from the surrounding towns. The cottage was situated on a little rise and you could see across the prairie and to the bigger hills to the east. We loved our visit in every way and are already planning our next visit! Jack was so communicative and made the whole experience so easy and welcoming. Thank you!! See you again!

Birthday getaway
The property was awesome. Very clean, perfect size for the two of us. The added touch of having breakfast supplies, water and sodas in the fridge when we got there was awesome and very appreciated. They also supplied travel versions of toiletries in the bathroom, which we didn't need this trip but love the idea just in case i didn't plan well. Loved the firepit and deck. The down side is it is a ways out in the country and outside of Fredericksburg but it did not damper our trip. The view and quiet makes up for the distance. We will have it on our list for next time !

Great Anniversary Getaway
This little cabin was perfect for just the two of us. Incredible starry nights on the patio lounging by the gas fire pit. We saw deer on the property and were close enough to enjoy the LBJ State park for the solar eclipse. The owner even left us solar eclipse glasses for viewing. How incredible is that! We would definitely stay here again.

Perfect Hill Country Getaway
This little gem of a home was the perfect spot for our anniversary weekend getaway. The location is perfect for wine tasting at the different wineries along Hwy. 290 and super close to the town of Fredericksburg. The views from this home are beautiful. The home is very clean and the fridge is stocked with breakfast items and sodas and waters for your stay. We couldn’t of asked for more welcoming hosts, thank you Mr. James!

Date Nights
The views were gorgeous from the big porch and the house was extremely clean. The host went above and beyond with having everything prepared and having plenty of towels, toiletries, etc. If you are looking for a well kept date night getaway, this is a great stay! Just a couple minutes from the bar/dancehall in Albert and about 15-20 minutes from Fredericksburg

I enjoyed my stay immensely. I was pleasantly surprised how secluded it was yet so close to our wine and bourbon venues. And the sweet hummingbirds, who knew I was at the age that they would bring me such joy. The lighting at sunset was amazing. Texas at its finest.

Amazing sunrise views!
This is our second trip to Absolute Repose! This cottage is a gem located exactly where we love to be in the Texas Wine Country. Easy access to Fredericksburg, Hye, Johnson City, Blanco, Luckenbach makes our trips so effortless! Everything we need including Hill Country views & amazing sunrises. The only hard decision is whether to eat out nearby or stay home & enjoy the expansive outdoor deck by the fire!
