TxStar Haus-Games-4Blks 2Main

Summary:
Come stay at the TxStar Haus, a charming farmhouse in the historic district, just 4 blocks from the center of town and the Marktplatz. The home, built in the 1940s, has been completely remodeled with new furniture, fresh paint, refinished hardwood floors, and an updated bathroom. It has a sizeable, fully stocked kitchen with all new appliances. The home has TVs in the living room and bedrooms. Sleeps 4 people comfortably, but can sleep 6 with a sleeper sofa.

The Space:
The large backyard deck offers a great place to relax while watching birds and deer in the morning or evening after a day of shopping in town or touring the many wineries and breweries in the area. A new game room out back welcomes you to some foosball or your choice of board games while watching your favorite TV show or movie. There are also outdoor games to enjoy: corn hole, bocce ball, and croquet. Additionally, there are open areas on the property to enjoy picnics in the shade, see the stars at night. Come stay at this awesome home in the heart of Fredericksburg!

Guest Access:
✅ This property has special local compliance requirements which include a signed rental agreement, ID verification, and a security hold of $1000 (which is not a traditional security deposit, just a pending transaction). As an optional alternative to the security hold, you may opt in to purchase a non-refundable damage waiver provided by a third-party insurance company. The optional damage waiver is $53.00 for stays up to 10 nights, with an additional $1.5 per day for stays longer than 10 nights. Damage waiver purchases are optional.

To make this process easy for you, we use a secure and very simple, app-free platform called Happy Guest. It is not an app, and you do not have to sign up for an account - it’s a safe and secure website. It also gives you a guest portal with all the info about the home and all of my favorite local spots.

Your guest portal includes advertisements with third-party upgrades that you may want to enhance your stay. These upgrades are optional and include:
Late Checkout Request - $54.13
Early Check In Request - $59.4
Private Chef - $121
Fridge Stock - $378.88

Cute & Cozy, Great Location

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this charming property for a weekend getaway, and it exceeded all expectations. The house, while renovated, beautifully preserved its historical charm, offering a perfect balance of modern amenities and classic character. Its proximity to Main Street and HEB made it incredibly convenient for shopping and dining. The neighborhood was peaceful and quiet, providing a relaxing retreat. One of the highlights of our stay was spotting deer in the lot next door—a special touch that made the experience even more memorable. The check-in process was seamless, and the property management company provided excellent communication throughout our stay, including clear instructions for both check-in and check-out. Overall, this property was an ideal choice for a peaceful and enjoyable getaway, and I would highly recommend it!

Quiet and convenient

Nice quaint cottage convenient to downtown attractions. Quiet neighborhood. Nice deck outside. We did have a problem with the heat at night. No matter what we tried we could not get it to work properly. Also, although we don't watch a lot of TV the streaming service did not give us much choice in selection. Check in after 4 p.m. is also a little late, especially in the winter.
