Small but efficient farmhouse
Fence was not all around the property and it was broken in a few places which did not allow for a pet to roam around while we were outside.

Cute and Cozy Spot, but Some Areas Need Attention
We had a nice stay overall. Check-in was very smooth—we picked up the keys easily from the management office. The house itself was exactly as pictured: quaint and quiet in a great location. The back patio was a lovely secluded spot with a fantastic hot tub, but unfortunately, it was covered in leaves, and we had to sweep it ourselves to use it.
However, there were a few issues worth noting. The bathtub/shower area needs attention; the nonslip mat had mold, the faucet dripped, and the shower head is very low, so it’s challenging for anyone taller than 5’9” to use comfortably. Additionally, the front door safety latch doesn’t fully engage, which may be a concern for families with young children as it wouldn’t prevent them from opening the door.
With a few updates, this property could be even better, but we still enjoyed our time here.

Anniversary Weekend
Overall my Husband and I had great expectations on our visit in Fredericksburg. We were so excited to celebrate our anniversary but also, a long weekend away from our high stressfull careers. When we arrived to the cottage we instantly felt nostalgic with the old feel of the home. We both grew up in old old farmhouses. It wasn’t the most modern or most up to date home we have stayed in through VRBO but we wanted to make it work. It was when we started seeing live roaches and then upon further inspection seeing dead ones under the master bedroom bed it just made us feel uncomfortable in the matter of how clean is this place we have to stay in for 3 more days. Dusting off the dishes before use-The less then great water pressure in the shower-It was ok to us but the bugs were the last our patience could handle. Seeing them scurry across the floor or even sitting on one in the couch- When all you want is to be home-It’s not a Vacation anymore. We messaged the hosts Saturday morning to let them know we were canceling the last of our trip. Although there was an offer for a new place-We were just ready to be home in our own place with no chances. When we got home we found 2 in our toiletree bag that had been set on the bathroom floor at the cottage-We have yet to bring our suitcases into the house from the garage-We instantly washed the blankets and clothes to make sure no bugs would make it further into our home. We are still waiting to hear from Management at 1 o’clock on Monday.

Nice stay and excellent location
I booked this house for my history buff husband. It was really neat staying in such a historic home. We especially loved the kitchen/dining area. Having TVs in both the dining and family room area were great options as well as we could enjoy shows while preparing meals or as a family after dinner all cuddled up on the couches.
The kitchen was fully stocked; we found everything we needed except for oven mitts but made do with the dish towels. It's always nice when you can prep meals at home and have all your tools handy.
The only thing I'll mention about the overall condition of the house is the foundation. As a previous guest mentioned, the floor is uneven and this is especially noticeable in the back 1/3 of the house where the primary bedroom is located. No one fell but I did slip on an area rug next to the bed because of the slope.
Otherwise, this house was a nice stay for us. My little ones refer to this house as "the little house." We didn't use the hot tub or use the outdoors since we had long days exploring Fredericksburg and the surrounding areas, but everything was kept nicely and the backyard was cute and inviting.
Thanks again for such a neat stay!
