Deer Ridge Cottage | Fredericksburg Vacation Rental
This wonderful cottage is located on a hill in Cain City just a few miles from Fredericksburg. Cain City was once a thriving community. The railroad went right through the city and at that time Cain City was divided into numerous city lots, which had both homes and businesses including a bank. The owners of Deer Ridge Cottage offer the history of Cain City along with a map of how things used to look. They offer an interesting look of days gone by.
Deer Ridge Cottage sits on a hill that has wonderful views of the countryside and Fredericksburg. The front porch has comfy seating to enjoy these awesome views—plus the deer hurrying to the feeder below. You may want to have your camera ready to take photos of the many hummingbirds attracted to the feeders on the porch during the spring and summer.
The decorating in this cottage is an elegant country with stained concrete floors and faux painted walls. Your hosts have created the cottage with warmth and comfort in mind for your stay. The décor offers wonderful antiques Inside is an open living room, dining room and fully equipped kitchen. The living room has a sofa with queen sleeper and rocker placed to enjoy the Satellite television or one of the many movies left for guests. A table for four sits in front of a window to relish those wonderful outdoor views. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need for your stay. The bedroom has a king bed, and the bath has a shower.
The cottage backs up to a cut in the hill, which is not a safe area for guests to climb, but there is plenty of room in front of the cottage to frolic and play. The roads in Cain City are also great areas for bicycling and walking.

Just what we needed for a small getaway with one of our Mom's, as well as a mini babymoon trip before our daughter joins us in July. The cabin was full of rustic charm and there was nothing that we were wishing we had with us. The rockers / porch swing were an incredible touch and we spent mornings and evenings out there, enjoying the quietness and views. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to anyone looking to escape for a few days. Thank you for everything!
Deer Ridge is a Real DEAR!

Deer Ridge is my favorite place to stay in Fredericksburg. I have been using Gastehaus Schmidt for more than thirty years and coming to Fredericksburg for more than fifty. The house is wonderfully comfortable and the best accessorized I have ever seen. The view is spectacular. However, don't come, because like all really good things I want to keep it to myself.
We Loved our Stay at Deer Ridge Cottage

This was our third trip to Fredericksburg in the past several years and we always stay at Deer Ridge Cottage. Once again, it did not disappoint! My husband and I brought our daughter and grandson and had a fantastic time. The cabin is always so clean and welcoming! Everything we need is there and in perfect working condition. We fed the deer and enjoyed the wildlife from the front porch. We hiked Enchanted Rock, climbed Cross Mountain, did a little shopping and enjoyed some of the local restaurants. The coupons are a little bonus. We will be back to visit Deer Ridge the next time we're in Fredericksburg! I hope it will be soon! Sandra and Bill Dowell

This was our second stay at this large modern cottage and we greatly enjoyed our visit except for the cold, rainy, windy weather. This very clean cottage has all one would need in the kitchen, the bed and sofa are very comfortable, and the location is fantastic -- great views with no one else close by. We greatly appreciated the lady at Gastehaus Schmidt sending her husband out with more bird seed for the front porch feeder. That was way beyond the call of duty and made our stay and bird watching much more enjoyable. Thanks so much!!
Lovely cottage; beautiful view; spectacular wildlife watching; facility in outstanding condition

Lots of wonderful amenities. We enjoyed sitting on the porch, watching the deer and the birds. The bottle of wine and snacks were a nice touch. Played Scrabble (which we haven't done in ages!). A very nice relaxing weekend. Thank you!!!

This was a beautiful property which made me want to stay longer. We never had to hunt for anything or go out & buy anything other than things to make for dinner or lunch if we didn't want to eat out, & the kitchen was fully stocked for us to do so. The bed was incredibly comfortable, the views were great, the wildlife friendly. I will be coming back to this property again.
A slice of heaven

We have finally found our getaway place. After staying at other homes and hotels for several years we feel that Deer Ridge is our “go-to”. It’s charming and homey let alone the breath taking views of the hill country. We’ll definitely be back.
Absolutely perfect!

We have stayed in numerous retreats in our yearly visits to Fredericksburg. Deer Ridges exceeds all in many areas: views, privacy, completely full kitchen including snacks, chilled steins, wine and is a dog friendly place! Many thanks to the Gibson family for providing this Utopia for us!
