About this property

Ava Haus Dairy Barn<br>3 minutes to Main Street!<br>See our other 4 Ava Haus rentals.<br>

The Dairy is a step back in time with a high-pitched ceiling and original loft. The bedroom area is spacious and inviting with 2 king-size beds located beneath the loft. A focal point is a beautiful stained glass window located in the loft to catch the morning sun.The French country daybed sleeps a fifth guest or simply provides a comfortable place to relax. The large country wardrobe (which houses the mini-kitchen) and rustic furnishings give a French Country feel to the Dairy. A bathroom that includes a shower is located off the living area of the Dairy. Like all of our guesthouses, an ample porch provides a great place to relax and enjoy the Texas Hill Country. Complete with an antique double wrought-iron rocker to enjoy your favorite beverage.We look forward to your stay and strive to ensure that you experience the best of the Hill lavender, peaches, live music, restaurants, shopping, hiking and more.

We had a lovely stay at the Ava Haus Dairy Barn. The decor helped set the atmosphere for relaxing, sitting on the porch to drink our coffee/wine and enjoying some fresh hill country air. We were just a short drive to the downtown main street area. The host was very responsive and provided numerous amenities.

Rustic country style setting. The rooster was a charmer. You sensed the history of the former farm life.

We absolutely loved our stay at Ava Haus Dairy Barn! It was the perfect home base for our girls trip — cozy, clean, and full of charm. The layout was spacious and comfortable for our group, with plenty of room to hang out and relax after a day of exploring.The property itself is beautiful and peaceful, with such a cute, rustic Hill Country feel. Everything was well-stocked and thoughtfully arranged, which made it feel like home right away.The location was also perfect — just a short drive to all the wineries and downtown Fredericksburg, but tucked away enough to feel private and relaxing.We all said we’d 100% stay here again. It’s such a special spot — can’t recommend it enough!

Great place!

The cabin was cute and cozy. The wine tour I did thru the owners was a lot of fun they drove us around in their car so it was very nice not to be in a large wine tour group. Cannot wait to stay again!
Response from VrboOwner on 6 Mar, 2020
So glad you enjoyed the Dairy and your wine tour! I agree a wine tour is so much more enjoyable when it's a small group. Please come again! Pattie

We had a wonderful family getaway!

We enjoyed the rustic charm and large space for our family of 5. The porch and yard area were an added bonus. Would recommend to any family looking for something different from the typical hotel.

Fantastic Stay!

We were in town for a wedding and stayed at the Dairy Barn for two nights. Our host, Patricia, replied quickly to all my questions, and the barn was perfect! We loved the decor, the snacks/breakfast muffins/cold beverages waiting for us upon check-in, comfy beds, and the great linens. There was also access to a side road where we went on a long walk one morning. We will definitely be back - thank you!

Great location for exploring Texas Hill Country

Stayed in this nice, spacious one bedroom suite cottage two nights. It was perfect for our dog and us, with cool walls and floors in the Texas heat. Beds were super comfortable and there were nice breakfast fixings (oatmeal, yogurt, etc.). So nice to have a VRBO house that takes pets
