We love this place! The house is so nice, the view is beautiful, and the property manager is very helpful and easy to communicate with. Great location near Fredericksburg, but still away from it all.

Absolute Repose = Absolute Peace
This was our second stay at this property, and this experience was just as wonderful as the first. James is an accommodating and responsive host. The location of the home overlooks a beautiful, serene pasture. The inside is spotless and everything is in such great condition. The bed is comfortable. The kitchen is well-appointed. The large deck/patio is a great place to relax and hang out. Thanks, James, for giving us a great place to stay!!

Great Anniversary Getaway
This little cabin was perfect for just the two of us. Incredible starry nights on the patio lounging by the gas fire pit. We saw deer on the property and were close enough to enjoy the LBJ State park for the solar eclipse. The owner even left us solar eclipse glasses for viewing. How incredible is that! We would definitely stay here again.

Frequent visitors to the hill country. First time here. We will be back. Great location. Quiet, secluded, dark skies for star gazing around fire pit. Very well designed and appointed interior will not disappoint.

Great time in the country
My husband and I enjoyed a weekend away in the country. It was so nice to relax, enjoy a few wineries and restaurants in the area. We also cooked and enjoyed quiet evenings at Absolute Repose. James (host) did a great job communicating before and during our trip. Also, k-cups, beverages, and breakfast items were an added plus! Looking forward to visiting again soon!

Peaceful Getaway
My boyfriend and I enjoyed every moment of our stay on this property! James was an amazing host and very quick to respond any time we had questions. Our favorite moments were watching the sunrise from the deck and seeing deer and other wildlife in the morning. The location is isolated and peaceful but also a reasonably close drive into town. We will definitely be returning!

I enjoyed my stay immensely. I was pleasantly surprised how secluded it was yet so close to our wine and bourbon venues. And the sweet hummingbirds, who knew I was at the age that they would bring me such joy. The lighting at sunset was amazing. Texas at its finest.

Great get away.
This was an amazing escape. The windows mostly face east, so we had a beautiful sun rise with coffee. The fridge was stocked with breakfast goods which was an added bonus. At night we enjoyed the patio and fire under the stars. It was so peaceful we didn’t want to leave.

Amazing sunrise views!
This is our second trip to Absolute Repose! This cottage is a gem located exactly where we love to be in the Texas Wine Country. Easy access to Fredericksburg, Hye, Johnson City, Blanco, Luckenbach makes our trips so effortless! Everything we need including Hill Country views & amazing sunrises. The only hard decision is whether to eat out nearby or stay home & enjoy the expansive outdoor deck by the fire!

A quiet getaway
Just stayed at this beautiful vrbo, which was very well maintained. The house was cozy, very clean and had everything there that you would need. A lot of thoughtful touches were included. It was wonderful. We were looking for somewhere peaceful which it certainly was and to top it all had amazing views. We will back to visit again.
