Checking in was very simple, and Joe always responded to every text I sent. Everything was very clean and organized. This was a great location because it was within 30-45 minutes of what was planned to visit and excellent to the major highways.I highly recommend a stay at this cute little cottage.

Our second time staying here and we love it. Nicely decorated, excellent location. Easy and short walk to a great coffee shop and food truck area in the mornings. Love the reverse osmosis system in the kitchen for perfect pure drinking water, and the memory foam mattress is very comfortable to sleep on. We will be back again for sure.

We absolutely loved the house and the location. We even sat outside one evening and enjoyed the fire pit. We drove to many wineries in the area without even going to Fredericksburg. Due to the location, we were also able to walk to some wine tasting rooms and restaurants. ABSOLUTELY LOVED the adorable house with all the amenities and convenient location to walk to restaurants and wine tasting rooms. Also, we loved that the kitchen had everything we needed to cook breakfast and dinner. We will definitely book this house again. And Joe was an awesome host! Can’t wait to stay there again and possibly invite another couple because there was plenty of room for 2 couples.

Quick Stay in Johnson City

This house is in a great location in Johnson City. I needed a place to stay while working on some property nearby. The house is very comfortable, good parking, good location, and you can walk to several shops and places to eat.

This is a charming property that is very thoughtfully appointed. We enjoyed sitting out in the backyard by the firepit and playing some Cornhole. We took a lovely stroll to the nearby town center and browsed the variety of cute shops. Because we stayed over Thanksgiving the town center was beautifully decorated with Christmas lights in the evening. The host was wonderful, always quick to respond to any question. I would definitely stay again.

Perfect location for visiting the wineries on 290. We liked being in Johnson City rather than Fredericksburg. Enjoyed sitting in the back yard in the evening. Inside is updated and had everything we needed. A very enjoyable stay!
