About this property

The Dove House | Adorable/Firepit/Quaint/Private (by WTG)

This adorable 1940's Sunday house is perfectly located between downtown Fredericksburg and the 290 Wine Trail. Situated on two private acres on a quiet street with a wood burning fireplace and it's own gate, activities here include gathering on the front porch for sunsets, wildlife viewing and peaceful mornings drinking coffee in the gorgeous vintage inspired living room and kitchen. Just 5 miles from Luckenbach, 1 mile from Bankersmith, and a 10 min country drive to downtown or the wineries.

This is a really special house. It was originally located in downtown Fredericksburg next to the Catholic church where traveling nuns would use it as quarters when visiting town. It was moved out to it's current location 15 years ago and it's more beautiful than ever. They just don't build houses like this anymore. It feels like you're in a perfect dollhouse, and the woodburning stove in the kitchen just adds to the cozy factor. The beds are super comfy, the living room is the perfect gathering spot or quiet spot to read a book. It also has a record player and vinyl collection for good music times. Surrounded by ranch land, nature, and the best stargazing you'll find!

Safety: We employ one security camera that faces out towards the driveway for everyone's safety.

Perfect country stay

The place is so sweet and perfect, reminded us of my grandparents’ house. We saw so many deer, some right by our driveway. We would stay here again!

Stay at the Dove Hose

My four daughters and I had a wonderful weekend together. I would stay there again in a heartbeat! It was clean, charming, and just remote enough to feel like the country. Thanks again for a wonderful stay!

Charming Fredericksburg

My 72 year old Mom was visiting from Chicago and we decided to share Hill Country with her, including our favorite, Fredericksburg. I found this gem of a property located about 15 minutes from downtown and it was simply wonderful. While the weather was horrific (20 degrees!) and sleeting, we arrived after a wonderful dinner at The Auslander and enjoyed the trappings of this adorable little place. Comfortable, charming and clean, it features not only an outdoor fire pit (which we couldn't use due to the weather), but also an indoor wood burning stove! We brought our firewood from home and enjoyed a warm, toasty fire while we played cards and dice at the kitchen table. We loved this place and will be back!

Country Ranch House

Very cute and nice. You must like older farm or ranch style homes. This is not a modern studio inner city stay. For the country enthusiasts this is a very cozy and comfortable stay.

Weekend get away

This is an adorable & charming little house in the country. It was perfect for a little get away & chance to unplug. We went to Fredricksburg & Luckenback & had a great time. The house was just as described, was very clean, & absolutely adorable w/it's 1940's charm. The hosts were very kind & a pleasure to communicate work. My husband & I loved staying here & will come back!
