Great little place
Went for a little weekend getaway and this place didn't disappoint. It was cute, clean, close to everything and you can tell the place has a long history of satisfied travelers by looking at the guest log books. I highly recommend.

Small, but overall a great stay!
This little cottage is tiny, but it's on top of a hill with a huge oak tree and looks like it belongs in a story book. Comfortable and very cozy.

During the day, we walked to downtown. At night, we watched deer wander around the house. This place is the perfect romantic get-away.

Nice but very outdated and traffic noise
The location and coziness was nice but the VERY small shower and non-stop traffic noise was a problem. The furniture and overall feel was dated, but it location was great and it worked.

Charming cottage
Charming, tiny cottage. Great location near Main Street. Very clean. Comfortable bed. Shower is very narrow, but fine for smaller people. There is a lot of traffic on road next to house and the traffic noise can be heard clearly in bedroom.

Excellent get away tiny home style
Loved everything about our experience! Close to Main Street, we never used our vehicle, walking distance from all that is Fredricksburg! Home was cozy and had comfortable bed. Shower was a little but it’s a tiny house great, but awesome water pressure! Staff was attentive and checked up on us! We will stay here for now on!

Overall good experience
Photos of outside not current; however, tree and shrub growth is well maintained. Disappointed that no Kleenex was in the holder, and no makeup wipes prr

Property is too small and not safe
Shower is not large enough for an adult, outside light did not work so at night we had to enter in the dark. Steps to enter the kitchen are too steep and there are no dead bolt locks or adequate security to prevent break-ins. Management by Vacasa was excellent, but I would never stay in this place again.

Quick Trip
My wife and I went to Fredericksburg for the first time and enjoyed our stay at the Oak House. The house was much smaller than I thought it would be but enough for the 2 of us. Close to Main street which was nice.

Came to stay in The Burg with my sister for one night. We hiked Enchanted Rock and rode our bicycle in the residential neighborhoods close to the house. Walked to dinner and had a wonderful time! Thank you for a place to call home for a night and rest our weary bodies!

A very quaint weekend cottage. Conveniently located, in a quiet neighborhood. Really enjoyed just spending time on the porch. The amenities were nice and especially enjoyed the stereoscope; looked at all the photos!

Fine for a one night stay
House is very cute and well kept, but very small. Shower is the size of an RV shower and the bathroom door has trouble staying shut. The outside traffic is quite audible inside the house. It was fine for our one night stay for a place to sleep.

Pint-Sized Perfection!
The cottage proved to be a comfortably cozy "small space" for my wife and I. All we required was a cozy bed , a bathroom , and a coffee maker to enjoy coffee in the morning . Someone commented on the size of the shower. Yes it's small, but I'm 6'1" and still managed to navigate the small space with no problem. All we needed was a place to sleep after spending the day out visiting tasting rooms and vineyards. Totally enjoyed our time there!
