About this property

The Log Cabin | Charming Country Cabin

This is the place to be for a truly quiet, peaceful, away-from-it-all stay. This reconstructed log cabin is set in the middle of acres of beautifully kept fields. It has some trees around it -- and the nearest home is that of the hosts. A porch at the front has a swing to enjoy as you look over the fishing pond. A back porch covers the short walk (about 10 feet) to the small log cabin which is the bathroom. There is a wonderful antique footed tub (no shower) to provide a luxurious soak. (Heat & air, too!!)

The restoration on this log cabin is outstanding with the logs exposed on the interior and exterior walls. The main cabin is a large room with living area and mini kitchen uniquely designed to compliment the antique furnishings. The fireplace is the focal point of the room and can be seen from the loft. Truly a romantic setting! A ladder-type stairway leads to the sleeping loft that holds a double bed and single bed with quilt coverlets and a large old trunk.

The Continental breakfast including pastries from local bakeries is left in your kitchen for you to enjoy whenever you wish. Sitting at the round table with morning coffee and pastries and gazing into the fire or looking out the window at the pond is a relaxing way to start the day. The living room has a queen bed. There is also an antique sofa and TV.

This cabin has been featured in the Hill Country VIEW magazine.

The Log Cabin

I hope 5 is considered to be the highest rating in this review. The Log Cabin has become our favorite place to stay in Fredericksburg. We have stayed there 6 or 7 times now. The hostess is a very sweet lady that brings pastries and banana bread every day. The cabin is always clean and well-maintained. The peacefulness and ambiance is perfect for decompressing and letting relaxation take over. I hope the owners continue to allow access for years to come, because we will be there time and time again.

We stayed 2 nights at The Log Cabin. It was a wonderful experience! 9 minutes from Main St. Fredericksburg. Cabin took us back to what would have been simpler times. So cozy and peaceful. Amazing starry nights, watched deer from porches, warm fire in stone fireplace, and delicious baked goods left for us each day. They even have an old photo album with pictures and articles about the history of the cabin. I wasn’t sure about bathroom not being in the cabin, but it was just steps from the front door and so perfect with claw foot tub. Uber worked well for us to go back and forth to Main St. Fredericksburg for dinner/drinks. Highly recommend if you want privacy in a rustic, vintage environment.

Relaxing Stay

Beautiful view, relaxing, peaceful. This little cabin is a great place to get away from the hustle and bustle of life. The pastries were quite a treat, and they provide other healthier options for breakfast as well. The front and back doors are a bit difficult to open and close--could use some sanding to ease this problem. Overall, a pleasant stay.

We've been there a total of 6 times within a 10 year span. Mrs. Itz personally greets guest's, no amount of money can pay for her hospitality. I'm looking forward to seeing her once again and visiting her log cabin.

Cozy cabin

I really enjoyed the cabin. I loved how peaceful the setting was and to be honest, it wasn't hard to locate. It was close to Main Street and an easy drive. The host was very thoughtful. The only reason that I didn't give 5 stars was the height of the bathroom doorway and mirrors. I'm tall and felt a little out of place but honestly it worked out fine. I actually believe it deserves 4.5 stars but I don't have that option.

Wonderful place to stay

The log cabin was perfect. Very peaceful with the cows and the deer grazing close by. Fresh fruit and pastries were delivered every day. I loved the layout on the cabin and wash house. The a/c in the cabin did not work very well so i went and bought a fan so everything was good. Will be going back for sure
