Crenwelge's Creekside Cottage procedures during Covid...

The safety of our guests and team members is our #1 priority during this pandemic. While you are visiting Fredericksburg we encourage all of our guests to wear face masks and social distance while you are shopping and at restaurants. We are taking the following steps:
1. The CDC has said that Covid-19 can live on some surfaces up to 3 days. Therefore, we plan to block off 3 days between bookings.
2. Even though the CDC does not have any evidence that the virus can live in water we are continuing to shock our hot tubs after each stay.
3. We are continuing our normal deep cleaning of the homes in between stays with added attention to high touch areas like door knobs, remotes, light switches, etc.
4. As a final step, we are using an approved sterilizing product on all surfaces, including coffee tables, couches, chairs, etc.

Cute Cottage close to Main Street
We loved staying in the Crenwelge cottage. It feels remote even though it's so close to Main street. Couldn't have asked for a better place!

45th Wedding Anniversary Trip
The trip was a huge success. Not only was the cabin just as we wanted but they had wine, chocolate strawberries, and flowers with a very professional table set for a romantic dinner. As the sun was setting the deer were walking around the yard as we enjoyed our jacuzzi with the wine and strawberries.

Great hidden gem!
We loved our stay. The home is beautiful and full of antique furniture. The icing on the cake was the deer that will come up close to the back porch to eat corn that is there for you to put out.

Hill country weekend
Location perfect, deer-friends in the back yard by creek magical, house a little run-down, lights flickered in bedroom and fan didn't always work. Would appreciate a stand-up shower option.

Great rustic place to stay. Perfect for 2. Fun and Cozy. Love seeing all the deer I the mornings and evenings. Next to Milam St makes it very noisy from the traffic. Recommend using earplugs for sleeping.

Cute cottage, quiet and great location!
We enjoyed our stay very much! Only 2 blocks away from Main Street so loved the location. In a residential area but because it is by a creek, it is very quiet and peaceful and the view from the back porch was lovely. Several deer visited in the morning. The cottage was so cute and rustic and was perfect for me and my husband. Will be back for sure!!

Amazing Weekend
We loved it. It was clean and the country type setting was beautiful. It was close to everything in town and very easy to find. The bed was amazingly comfortable would love to know what kind of mattress it had. We have told all our friends about it and recommended it very highly as a romantic weekend getaway. Thank you very much. Again if possible please what kind of mattress do y’all have on that bed we haven’t slept that good in years.

Fredricksburg/Fiesta weekend
The first "visual" we saw as we drove up to the property were multiple deer in the back yard and down by the creek--definitely a deal-maker! The deer were in and around the property despite thunderstorms during our weekend stay. Easy 2 block walk to Main street and all the action. Only down-side is no stand-up shower. We will definitely stay again!

The property was perfect. Everything was exactly as described in the listing. 5 minute walk to all of the shops downtown. My wife and I REALLY enjoyed the hot tub. (It is very secluded ;) ) the front porch is also perfect for just sitting with a glass of wine or bourbon

Very nice place. Bathroom is on the other side of the house and the hand held shower is awkward. We just stayed for one night. Close to town. We didn't get a chance to enjoy the hot tub, it was snowing that night.

Wonderful cottage on large lovely lot.
We really enjoyed our stay on Barons Creek at this one bedroom cottage. Humongous Cypress trees in the back with lots of birds. The hot tub was nice and the owners were kind enough to replace a light bulb in the bathroom for us during our stay. Very nice King size bed. No Wifi which we knew before arriving but there is a wireless router which confused our iPhones. There was some traffic noise but quite tolerable. Very enjoyable.

Great stay
House was just as advertised. I had a concern the couch/seating in the living area would not be comfortable but that was not the case. We enjoyed watching a football game and being lazy on the couch one afternoon. Bed and pillows are very comfortable and the central heat and air kept things at a temp we like. Hot tub was great and very relaxing each evening. The only two negatives on this home are the fact that it is off a reasonably busy road, and no shower. Road noise was a none issue inside the house and did not necessarily bother us outside the house either, but you are not going to have tranquil peace and quite outside if that is a concern to you. We made the tube work, but installing a shower would almost make this property a home run. Would not cost much to do, and would be a huge difference maker. Other than that, this place is quaint and awesome in every way, and those two negatives would not be a cause for me to not stay again.

Great Location
The owner is wonderful to work with. We arrived on 12/28 and was excited to see a Christmas tree on the front porch and other décor in the yard. The home sits on a large lot that backs up to a creek which makes it private, and is very conveniently located in town. You could walk to Main Street which would probably take less than 5 minutes. The main shopping however would take longer to walk to. The home is decorated in antiques and the kitchen resembles probably circa 1940 which actually adds to the ambiance of the home. The large hot tub is just off the kitchen and is private (at night). This home is best suited for two however we did bring our 11 yr. old son who slept on the couch. Although the bathroom is very roomy it does only have a claw foot tube which is common in many of the B&B’s but is something you should take note of, particularly for those individuals who may have problems stepping in and out or prefer a shower. We also enjoyed the sitting area Lindsey created in the yard under the canopy of trees!
