Savor Texas Treasures as you Relax and Unwind at the Historic Carriage House in Fredericksburg, Texas

If you haven’t visited the Hill Country, you haven’t seen Texas in all her glory. Escape the metroplex and set sights on Fredericksburg. Just outside the freeways, the landscape changes. Less cars allow breathing room. Pavement is slowly replaced with wildflowers. Those eventually give way to rolling hills, winding roads and open pastures dotted with natural, rugged beauty.

SMALL TOWN TREASURES Small towns define what our great state represents: friendly folks, a slower gear, hospitality and lots of grit. Take your time and stop in. In Glenrose you’ll find the Old Rock Gas Station where rumors say Bonnie and Clyde were regulars. Walk on dinosaur tracks at Dinosaur Valley State Park. Stop for lunch in Hico at Koffee Kup Family Restaurant. People come from miles for their homemade pies. Cross the street to Wiseman Chocolate House and taste the finest chocolate ever. Down the road, find San Saba and Wedding Oak Winery. Enjoy dramatic scenery along your route. Founded in 1846 and steeped with history, Fredericksburg delights with 80+ wineries and a historic main street to sip and stroll through its many quaint shops, tasting rooms and art galleries.

CARRIAGE HOUSE

For an easy walk to Main Street, we highly recommend booking the elegant Carriage House Fredericksburg. Original long leaf pine floors grace downstairs and the original well tank haus was transformed into a suite with large walk-in shower and French doors that open to a covered private garden. Private porch includes a fireplace, making the sitting area delightful during the cooler months. Soak in one of two restored original claw foot tubs. Then grab a cup of coffee or glass of wine, don a spa robe and relax on one of several porches nestled inside the luxurious gardens. Craft your own charcuterie board, cook up dinner with your crew or hire the owner’s favorite chef, Chef Leo Aguirre, to wow your guests in their recently remodeled kitchen before you head out on a wine tour.

Equestrian-Inspired Excellence

A nod to its name, Carriage House Fredericksburg features equestrian art throughout. This recently renovated 1903 Victorian home in the Historic District provides all the modern things you expect—honoring its history and allowing you to step into its past. The current homeowners, the Wahrmund family, was one of the original founding families of Fredericksburg, being family #33 to settle in the area and whose ancestors helped clear Marketplatz with a team of mules.

A: Enjoy an easy two block walk to the Nimitz museum, Visitor Center, shopping and great restaurants. Sip Fredericksburg wine on manicured patio areas in the shade of the 100 year old Pecans. Owner will happily help you plan your stay and guide you to their favorite restaurants, wineries and shops. The Wahrmund family is committed to excellent customer service and greets guests with a tour of the home, share tales of the remodel and finding a German sword tucked in the baseboard of a closet, help plan excursions and answer any questions about Fredericksburg.

Q: What if we don’t need space for 10? A: Message the owners for special weekday rates for smaller groups or couple’s trip.
