We loved our time at the cottage and still can't believe we found Precious the mini donkey. The setting was so peaceful and the cottage is so cozy. Barb and Rich are the perfect hosts and we really enjoyed having Spirit and Finn as company. We can't wait to return.

Two 7th grade friends reconnecting and catching up on the last 50 years! This was the PERFECT place for us to spend hours talking and enjoying the peaceful and beautiful surroundings. Close enough to town, yet far enough away. Everything you could possibly want or need was provided. The views were so special and seeing the animals and wildflowers was great. A true country experience. Cannot WAIT to go back!

We thoroughly enjoyed our recent stay at the Cottage on Bear Creek Bluff! It was so comfortable, peaceful, and serene! The owners are so warm and hospitable. They have truly thought of every detail! We would most definitely stay at this location again during future trips to Fredericksburg. Highly recommend!

Truthfully, my rating for The Cottage is 14/10. Every need you can imagine is supplied in the cottage. And your awesome hosts....... they are a 15/10. If the cottage comes anywhere close to filling your home away from home needs, don't pass it up.
Wonderful location and cottage in the Hill Country

My daughter and I had a great time in this cozy cottage/cabin. It is beautifully decorated and very well maintained and had comfy beds. We loved sitting on the porches drinking our coffee in the morning watching the birds and other wildlife. The sunset from the front porch was also fabulous. Lovely place to unwind and take in the beautiful landscape. Barb and Rich were excellent hosts and we felt very secure staying there. They had a bottle of wine and a fresh loaf of breakfast bread for us to enjoy. You won’t be disappointed staying there and we plan to enjoy it again soon. Like other reviewers, I would say this is one of the better B&Bs in Fred. :)

If we could give this cabin more than a 5* rating we would. This amazing hidden gem is so much more than the pictures described. Rich and Barb were amazing hosts, had literally everything we needed and we enjoyed getting to know them. The animals were an added touch, along with the porches, the creek, and the wonderful walks down the road. We look forward to returning again someday!

My wife and I really enjoyed the quiet stay here. The cottage is the perfect size for couples staying for any duration of time. The views from the back porch are perfect for watching deer and hummingbirds. We enjoyed petting the goats and the friendly horse! The drive into downtown Fredericksburg is short and there is easy access to many local wineries in the surrounding area. We can’t wait to go back for another quiet retreat! The owners live close by and we enjoyed their friendship as they welcomed us to their cottage. We absolutely loved it!
Perfect Stay!

This was our second year to stay at this property. The hosts go above and beyond to make sure you feel welcome and your stay is as comfortable as possible. The cottage feels just like a home away from home! It is wonderfully furnished and always very clean. The location is absolutely perfect! The cottage is just a short drive from downtown Fredericksburg. It allows you to be close enough to the restaurants and shops but yet still get the country experience. Coming from the big city this little cottage is situated away from the hustle and bustle of town and has two beautiful porches and chairs to sit and watch the sun rise and set. You can't ask for a better property and better hosts! We are already making plans to stay again next year!

My sisters and I stayed at the cottage on bear creek for our first annual sisters getaway. We had the best time! Barb and Rich are the ultimate hosts. They provided all the sweet little extras that make a stay at a rental that much more comfortable and easy. The cottage is away from the hustle and bustle of the main town center but still close enough for an easy commute to wineries, restaurants, shops and more that you would want to experience. Barb and Rich’s cottage provided the perfect atmosphere for my sisters and I to get away and connect. We are looking forward to returning in the future.
Great pre-holiday girls' trip

Our boys loved being around all the animals & helping out. The cottage is perfect & we were so relaxed there especially watching the sunrise & sunset & hearing the creek. We can't wait to come back!

Thank you for a wonderful stay! My kids really enjoyed exploring and visiting with the dogs, Pepper the horse , and goats. My husband and I enjoyed just sitting outside and listening to the creek flowing and watching the deer and wildlife. The hosts are amazing and super helpful and friendly and we enjoyed visiting with them. We love the little touches like snacks, coffee, juices, waters, and a homemade cranberry orange loaf. If you have forgotten any bath essentials, they have extra and have plenty of hand sanitizer and Lysol wipes. The bed, sheets, and pillows were super comfy and the cottage was very clean and secluded away from the hustle and bustle of downtown. We love this place and can't wait to return! Thanks so much!!!

Our stay at the cottage was truly wonderful. The cottage itself is extremely cozy. There are lots of nice, charming touches, and the place offers just relaxing, pleasant, and calm atmosphere. It is very clean and I would say that out of the many Airbnb places that we have stayed in, this one just stands out because of how clean, cozy, and tastefully furnished it is. We spent every afternoon visiting the creek, which you can hear even from the two porches of the cottage. Our second grader made friends with the lovely goats and the horse. Barb and Rich are perfect hosts. And we mean it. We felt truly welcome. They left not only very special welcome gifts for us, but also very quickly responded to our every question, and offered options for additional fun activities both for us and for our son. Because of COVID-19, they, just like we, made sure our brief in-person interactions were safe, which we appreciated. We miss the cottage and we are very happy to have met Barb and Rich, the warm, and caring hosts. Our cottage stay was definitely memorable.

The cottage on Bear Creek is everything it is advertised to be- a retreat away from the busy, the chaos to just relax and connect with those you love. The cabin is cozy and so well appointed- you will want for nothing!! The property is just beautiful and Frederickberg itself is a wealth of activities and fun. The hosts are incredibly kind and have really thought of everything. Not sure I saw a spec of dust or one thing that hasn’t been thought of. Our boys loves the horse, creek and goats and none of us wanted to leave!! Don’t miss this one!”

This property is a few miles up Hwy 16 from Fredricksburg. The drive is nice, and the property sits a mile or so of off Hwy 16. Once you turn off Hwy 16, keep an eye out for deer along the road. They are everywhere. When you arrive at the entrance of the property where the cottage is, you get a nice long drive back to the cottage. It sits on a farm with acreage that holds a horse, goats, and a couple of awesome dogs. And don't forget the deer eating in the pastures as well. The cottage itself is great. It is cozy, very clean, and very comfortable. It would be great for a couple or for a couple with a child or two. Sitting on the porch enjoying the view isn't a bad thing to do while having your coffee. There is a creek that runs behind the cottage and listening to the water is relaxing. There is nothing you need as everything is provided by the hosts (which are great by the way). We're definitely going to be staying here again.
Love the Place

Great place to stay. So cozy you almost don't want to leave during your stay. Covered porch area in front and back, excellent communication and thoughtful hosts. Great place to unwind outside or in after touring the busy hill country area. Love that it is a bit off the winery route path. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy the beauty around this cabin. Hope to be back soon.
Absolutely perfect in every way.

This place is the best kept secret of the Texas hill country! I am a fairly frequent traveler, and I love using Airbnb. This place is without a doubt the best house I have stayed in. If you even thought you might need something during your stay, Rich and Barb have already provided it! Waking up to the peaceful mornings on their 10 acre farm is just what you’re needing, I promise! When you get back from your fun day in town, relaxing on the back porch watching the sunset over the draw is the perfect end to your day! Your hosts will be accessible, friendly, and overly accommodating. I will 10/10 be staying here again! I’m already ready to go back! It was the perfect place to stay for a very fun weekend!
Your request has been sent. We look forward to meeting all your vacation needs!
