Rocking Ox Guesthouse | Fredericksburg Vacation Rental

Rating:

The Rocking Ox is a great place to get away for a few days like my wife and I did. It is out of town just far enough to be away from the crowds but less than five minutes to the main downtown area. Downtown Fredericksburg is really not in walking distance (at least not for us) but is a short drive. The host is wonderful and the pastries she brings for breakfast are great! It says there is not a carbon monoxide detector but that is not an issue as there is no gas to the house. The heating unit is an electric heat pump so no worries. The place is was very clean. I highly recommend the Rocking Ox!

The Rocking Ox was perfect for our girls' weekend. The house was comfortable and clean. It had everything we needed for our stay. The beds were comfy and the bathroom was well appointed. The kitchen was small but more than adequate for our needs. You could hear the road noise from our bedrooms but it didn't keep us awake! Breakfast was yummy and just what we needed to start off our day. Would definitely stay here again.

Enjoyed our stay! Loved the way the turn of the century barn was transitioned into a B&B!! Very cozy atmosphere!! Pastries delivered to the porch swing every morning was a great touch and delicious!

It was a fun, rustic, intimate experience in a very historic and old fashioned retro-environment. I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a unique if not eclectic experience. Would recommend arriving early and before sunset as it’s hard to see the entry way at night.

Darling barn turned into a cabin. This is the cutest little place about 2 miles just outside of Fredericksburg. It was an old barn converted into a cabin. There are 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom with a walk-in shower and separate claw foot tub. It also has a partial kitchen with a mini fridge, microwave and sink. The owners keep it pretty well stocked with salt, pepper, sugar and spices, coffee, tea and a few snacks. Every morning we received breakfast pastries that were left on the front porch. She also offers bath products, a hair dryer and even curling iron! The decor is a collection of western and antique items ...eclectic and fun. The bedrooms are both a decent size and there’s even a third bed in the living/dining area. The cabin opens to a large grassy area with beautiful views of a few surrounding properties. It is off 290 by a matter of feet so you can hear cars passing. But unless you’re a light sleeper it isn’t bad ... neither of us had trouble sleeping. And there’s a sound machine too if need be. Storage is limited .... the rooms have a few hangers and hooks but that’s about it. It wasn’t a problem for either of us when we went and the rooms felt fairly large. It’s actually surprising how spacious it is inside, especially at first glance from the outside. The only con, as I said, was a bit of background noise but it wasn’t bad for us. We would have enjoyed having a fire pit to use at night. They really make you feel appreciated w/ several personal touches.

We loved it! A group of 5 pals went for a birthday weekend getaway. We grilled out one night under the Texas stars, and the breakfast pastries on the porch sealed the deal--delicious and fresh from a local bakery. Our hosts answered our questions and were absolutely lovely. We loved the charm of the place and felt right at home!
