Your perfectly charming get-away in the center of the Texas wine country.
The Helen Louise House, located in a quiet neighborhood (city ordinance requires 10:00 pm quiet time), is only a 10 minute walk from downtown Fredericksburg's museums, restaurants, art galleries, shops, and wine tasting rooms. The charming 2 bed/2 bath house, built in 1950 and lovingly renovated and expanded in 2016, is perfect for 1 or 2 couples or a small family. You will appreciate the fully equipped large kitchen and wine bar, the sparkling clean full bathrooms, the light and airy screened-in porch, and the large and comfortable living room. Additionally, the property is fully landscaped with a large backyard complete with a 2-person hammock and the sound of a soothing fountain. Enjoy a picnic lunch or dinner outside on the shaded patio beneath a lovely, mature pecan tree. If it's chilly, warm up by the chimenea and watch the yard art in the hen house! You are welcome to enjoy exploring Fredericksburg riding one of the many cruiser bikes available in the garage. You'll love the small touches provided by us, the private owners of the Helen Louise House--from the bathroom amenities baskets to the wine and snack basket, your stay will be unforgettable!

Thank you so much for the glowing review and we hope you visit again!
The house was absolutely charming! Everything was neat and tidy but the amenities were fabulous! Our host thought of EVERYTHING: extra toothbrushes, corkscrews, soft throw blankets to sit on the couch with a cup of Joe, coffee, and the list goes on and on!

Thank you for taking the time to write such a kind review. We hope you come back soon!
The home was sooooo cute! Such care went into every detail of the home. The back porch & yard were great places to relax. We loved being so close to Main Street & the neighborhood was quiet. Will definitely stay again!

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a positive review. Max and I appreciate your booking and look forward to you choosing our house again!
The property is in a quiet neighborhood and close to town, parks, and wineries. The kitchen is large and had all the utensils and pans to cook a Thanksgiving dinner. The three season porch was really nice to sit and relax. Bicycles are provided but we needed another day if we were to use them. The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms well equipped. This is a very nice home and we would stay here again.

This house was perfect for our weekend getaway. Close enough to it all but yet nice and quiet in the evening. This was exactly what we were looking for.

About the host
Hosted by Helen \"Beth\" Plevich
Max and I (Beth) own and manage the Helen Louise House, named after my mother. We bought the house in 2016 because we love Fredericksburg and love riding our bikes around the Hill Country. Since we live in Austin, we decided to rent the house, when we ourselves aren’t able to use it. We hope you’ll love the house as much as we do!
