Ava Haus Dairy Barn<br>3 minutes to Main Street!<br>See our other 4 Ava Haus rentals.<br>

The Dairy is a step back in time with a high-pitched ceiling and original loft. The bedroom area is spacious and inviting with 2 king-size beds located beneath the loft. A focal point is a beautiful stained glass window located in the loft to catch the morning sun.The French country daybed sleeps a fifth guest or simply provides a comfortable place to relax. The large country wardrobe (which houses the mini-kitchen) and rustic furnishings give a French Country feel to the Dairy. A bathroom that includes a shower is located off the living area of the Dairy. Like all of our guesthouses, an ample porch provides a great place to relax and enjoy the Texas Hill Country. Complete with an antique double wrought-iron rocker to enjoy your favorite beverage.We look forward to your stay and strive to ensure that you experience the best of the Hill lavender, peaches, live music, restaurants, shopping, hiking and more.

Fantastic Stay!

We were in town for a wedding and stayed at the Dairy Barn for two nights. Our host, Patricia, replied quickly to all my questions, and the barn was perfect! We loved the decor, the snacks/breakfast muffins/cold beverages waiting for us upon check-in, comfy beds, and the great linens. There was also access to a side road where we went on a long walk one morning. We will definitely be back - thank you!

Adorable place

From the moment we arrived, we were charmed by this adorable, cozy place. Add to that the closeness to town and it was the perfect Fredericksburg lodging.

Great place!

The cabin was cute and cozy. The wine tour I did thru the owners was a lot of fun they drove us around in their car so it was very nice not to be in a large wine tour group. Cannot wait to stay again!

We had a wonderful family getaway!

We enjoyed the rustic charm and large space for our family of 5. The porch and yard area were an added bonus. Would recommend to any family looking for something different from the typical hotel.

Exceptional property and exactly as described. Only knock was the shower head resulting in stinging water pressure which was unpleasant. Would recommend property holistically!

Patricia was fabulous about communication prior to our stay and easily available during it. A Most pleasant host. The Diary Barn was quaint and comfortable. Best of all was the serene atmosphere that surrounded us each day.

Great location for exploring Texas Hill Country

Stayed in this nice, spacious one bedroom suite cottage two nights. It was perfect for our dog and us, with cool walls and floors in the Texas heat. Beds were super comfortable and there were nice breakfast fixings (oatmeal, yogurt, etc.). So nice to have a VRBO house that takes pets

Nice little place to stay

The cabin is exactly how it's described online. We had plenty of room and we're excited we could bring our dog along on the vacation. The only thing I would say is it's located near a very busy road so it was a little louder than expected.

Great night!

The one night we stayed was everything we hoped for. I got to sleep on the couch but the lucky ones in my group thought the beds were exceptionally comfortable. The pastry was delicious. I hope to return!

Great location to catch up with Friends

The Ava House was beautifully furnished with antiques. The cabin was larger than expected. My friend and I enjoyed the delicious pastries, yogurts, and drinks that were provided in the cabin. We also were impressed with the comfortable king size beds. We plan to return to this house in the future. Thanks Patty!

Going back in time!

This place is so charming! Rustic, but extremely comfortable. My friend and I loved having 50+ VHS tapes to choose from to watch from the big day bed like couch and the king sized beds were great. The pastries chosen for our breakfast weren't just from a grocery store, but from an amazing bakery in town, so that was an unexpected plus! It's very close to town and we had a great view of the sunset from our porch. I would absolutely stay here again :)

Amazing Pup Getaway

We loved this cute cottage! It was perfect for the pup getaway we planned to Enchanted Rock. We came from Austin with our 2 dogs and went to Enchanted Rock in the am, then Hondos on Main for lunch and Becker Vineyards to have a glass of wine. We took the dogs to all 3 places and were excited to find such a cute Dairy Cottage to come home too! The bed was super comfy and the decor was adorable. We will be coming back FOR SURE! Thank you for allowing our furrbabies to enjoy the weekend with us! Also, the location was perfect- so close to town but just enough on the outskirts to relax.

Beautiful, relaxing, romantic getaway!

Beautiful, quaint, relaxing, and romantic! Loved this B&B! The bed was extremely comfy. Decor was gorgeous. Pastry was delicious. Only complaint is that the water pressure was not good in the bathroom. Had toilet flushing issues & water in bathroom sink was super slow. Had to brush teeth in the kitchen sink. The low water pressure in the bathroom is the only reason I gave it 4 stars.

Absolutely Charming!

My friend and I stayed here for a girl's weekend in Fredricksburg and could not be any happier with our experience. The Dairy Haus itself is so adorable and charming we wanted to move in! Everything was ready for us upon arrival and there was a delicious bakery treat waiting for us on the porch on day 2! It was from a well known German bakery in town and was such a sweet touch. We will absolutely be back again and are trying to plan a time to come back and rent out all the properties on farm with a larger group. Highly recommended, you'd be a fool not to stay here!
