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.
KRISTIN’S SUITE
The original settlers’ home was ingeniously added on to just four decades ago but retained the feel and integrity of the 1800’s. As you enter the foyer paved with D’Hanis tile, a warm sense of history greets you. The bedroom/sitting room is magnificently large, rising to twenty foot ceilings at the peak. A wood burning fireplace provides warmth near the king size iron bed.
Kristin’s bath has a long and colorful history. In 1885, the Sheriff of Fredericksburg was the home’s original builder and owner, John Walter. An unfortunate fire destroyed the local jail and what better place to house the lawbreakers than the Sheriff’s stone barn. Iron bars were added over the windows to prevent early checkout and they remain today. This former barn and jail has limestone walls and a triangular jetted tub for two.
Kristin’s large private terrace is anchored by an ancient ivy covered pecan tree and a softly bubbling fountain. Relaxing and inviting for two, it is the perfect space for convivial gatherings. Have your morning coffee or relax with an evening glass of wine here for a memorable and authentic Fredericksburg experience.

Don\'t hesitate booking this property. It might be a little pricier than other BnB/Vacation Rentals you may be finding online, but worth every penny. I could not believe the huge courtyard with fountain we had to ourselves.Very private. Located near the Pioneer Museum and Hondos biergarten, access to Main Street was incredibly convenient. We never got in the car until we left. High end linens, so many great touches, a beautiful experience.

Kristin's is a great property with lots of room and great features. The bathroom is enormous and the bedroom/sitting room has a full sized couch which we always appreciate. The kitchenette is very adequate. The stay would have been great except the property was very musty/moldy smelling, and the carpet smelled of urine. We opened windows and doors briefly, but couldn’t leave them open since there were no screens. My husband has been sick with allergy symptoms since our stay. We have stayed in many Gastehaus Schmidt properties over the past 30+ years and have never had one that smelled so bad. Hopefully that will be remedied because the property is great.
Cute place - no hot water

We stayed in Kristin, and the property is beautiful and cozy. Beautiful living space and bathroom, but the bath only ran hot water for about 1 min before turning cold the entire weekend.

Been staying in one of the Austin Street Retreat Units for years... never had a problem until this trip. 2nd day there alerted mngmt that the hot water tank needed addressing. Told it was but never had enough hot water to bathe. Mentioned it again at checkout and no apology made or compensation offered.

We've been coming to Austin Street Retreat for 24 years, and absolutely LOVE it! We've never had a bad experience w/ any of the rooms there, but Kristin's is our favorite for sure! Thanks again for another great respite and time to re-charge.

Wonderful stay. I told Cynthia a couple maintenance items that are hard to discover without staying there. Here you go: 1. The tub can only be filled to about 60% before it runs out of hot water. Hot Water heater probably needs service 2. The bathroom could use some hooks near the sinks to hang hand and washcloths 3. Patio Door would not latch securely 4. The toilet seat is loose so moves (pinches) sometimes when you sit 5. Water fill of toilet is low. A nice to add would be putting electric extension cord next to each side of the bed in this day and age of electronics. Again we had a lovely stay.
