The Austin Street Retreat is an authentic historic home built by European settlers well over a century ago. Restored and embellished through the decades with modern amenities, there are now five unique suites. Located one block off Main Street in Fredericksburg’s National Historic District, this premier property is an authentic Texas treasure built of stone, timber and stucco. It is situated on a large double lot shaded by old growth pecan trees and perennials from the LBJ Ranch. Each suite features elegant, charming decor along with a private terrace.
Popular for Hill Country wine tours, family and friend reunions, special occasions and celebrations, the Retreat can sleep a total of twelve people.
ELI’S SUITE
Eli’s is a one bedroom suite which was added to the original historic structure by a family of preservationists. The original windmill and cypress water tank grace the private limestone terrace. Inside, architectural artifacts from around the world work to create a haven from the ordinary. The cast iron mantle from a Philadelphia mansion, antique carved wood sculpture bed frame and antler chandelier all grace the natural integrity of the limestone wall. Featured in the bath is a two person jetted tub which is set in a glass block wall allowing at the same time private and natural light.

We love Austin St Retreat. It's quiet, beautiful, and well cared for. We enjoy the tall beds ( and step stools)! It's great to be close enough to walk anywhere we want to go in town. Have stayed here before and will again!
A pleasure

Check in and check out went fine. Eli's unit was clean inside. Property outside in immediate vicinity of Eli's needs serious upkeep an maintenance however. Furnishings were well suited to the space. I didn't realize there is no standing shower in the bathroom, only an oversized garden tub with water jets. The entry and exit to the tub is difficult and frankly dangerous due to the uneven surfaces consisting of rocks grouted together sloping away from the tub. I am 6-ft tall and struck my head on a low part of the ceiling over the sink. Also there is a deer antler chandelier over the bed (main light fixture in the room) which didn't appear to work. The bed was comfortable with plenty of pillows to use.

This was our second stay at Austin Street Retreat. We stayed in Eli's place and it was charming and cozy. It was a beautiful weekend with warm days and cool nights. My husband made a great little fire in the fireplace and we relaxed on the patio in the mornings. Very comfortable and easy to walk from down town main street area which we did all weekend long.

Eli's was just beautiful, and so peaceful. Even though there were others staying nearby, it felt secluded, private, and relaxing - exactly what was needed! Only wish we could have stayed longer.

The room was lovely.I wish that the fireplace was a working one. The bed was very comfortable but I had difficulty getting into it (I'm only 5'2"!). Maybe a stool next to the bed would have helped.

I rented the Eli as a gift for my son and daughter-in-law for their wedding/honeymoon. They loved the privacy and completely enjoyed the house! I also ordered some extras like wine and baked goods so they could really enjoy some quality time together and they absolutely loved it! They will be going back for another trip on one of their anniversaries and have convinced my husband and I to go as well! Thank you so much for helping me with this very important gift to my son and my new daughter!! See you soon.

The stay was wonderful we were greeted nicely upon arrival the room key even came with coupons for breakfast and a voucher for free earrings (which turned out to be an $80 value!). The bathroom was as amazing as the last time we stayed at the Eli and it just felt like the perfect getaway......except for the bed. The bed was a nice king size but the mattress was an old spring mattress that was just about the same as sleeping on a slab of granite. My wife has a bad back so it was bad enough that we needed to pick up a mattress pad to make it bearable. If the mattress gets upgraded (just to something a bit newer I’m not saying we were expecting tempurpedic) than the Eli would be a 5/5 10/10 every time!
