About this property

Circle D Guest House | Pet Friendly Country Escape

This home follows the three “c”s—cute, comfortable and country with tasteful accents of western décor. Your hosts live on the property and are both from ranching backgrounds, so their love of the country and nature are apparent. The back porch will be a favorite of guests to watch nature at it's best—could be deer, birds or maybe a wild turkey. All will be a fun adventure when staying at Circle D!

Inside this two story cabin is a living room with loveseat (that conveniently makes into a single sleeper sofa) comfortably placed to watch the television (37” Direct TV). The rustic tin ceiling is vaulted over the loft bedroom. Downstairs in the living room is your hostess' linen closet, which was once used to ship ammunition during World War II. The kitchen and dining room are both open to the kitchen. The table easily seats four people. The kitchen is fully equipped with small range/oven, large refrigerator, Keurig coffeemaker, toaster and microwave. The downstairs bath has an antique footed tub and shower (the shower is made from exposed rustic pipe for that really ranch feel).

Upstairs is a large loft bedroom with a king bed. There is a large wood built in seating area perfect for putting suitcases and personal belongings. Looking over the loft is the perfect place to see the rodeo and ranch collectibles your hosts have acquired from family.

Your hosts train horses in their free time. The horses they have on the property are very friendly. Guests are welcome to pet them with one of the hosts present.

Circle D is pet friendly and will accept up to two dogs. However, there is a pet fee of $22/dog/night. Due to the fact that HomeAway/VRBO does not allow us to charge for more than one dog at the time of booking, please let us know if you will be bringing more than one dog, so that we can make sure that you are charged the correct amount. Furthermore, please bring crates for your dogs and crate them in your absence from the house, do not allow the dogs on furniture or beds, keep them on a leash when they are outdoors, and pick up and properly dispose of their waste. If these rules are not followed, there will be an additional $200 charge added to your reservation.

$135.00*/1 or 2 persons/night
$22.00*/extra person/night
$22.00*/each pet/night
*6% tax

Things to be aware of:
- The bedroom is upstairs while the bathroom is on the first floor.
- The yard is not fenced.
- The house is 13 miles from Main Street
- Your hosts live on the property in a separate home and their home is visible from the accommodation.

Please Note: You are renting a cabin in the Hill Country which means you may encounter wildlife (Snakes, Deer, Racoons, ETC). Please be aware of your surroundings, and take caution while driving at night. You may also encounter the various bugs, spiders, scorpions and mice that live in the country AND sometimes do make their way inside. All properties do utilize pest control services on a regular basis BUT this does not guarantee no pests or bugs will be visible.

Amazing!
Enjoyed our stay at this amazing little getaway in the country. My wife and I spent 3 nights and had the best time. The property owner (Brittney) was very accommodating and had great communication. We feel blessed!

Life on the open range
Our stay was fabulous. The house is definitely off the beating path. We passed a sign which said Loose Animals :goats,sheep, and cows. The house was very comfortable and the decor was rodeo cowboy which fit the area. We will definitely be back. It is also close to Patriot academy.

Peaceful Getaway
We really enjoyed our stay at the Circle D Guest House, especially sitting on the back porch at night listening to all the evening sounds. The hosts had great communication and were very kind. The house was clean, and the bed and couch were comfortable.

Wonderful stay!
We loved staying at this property. The hosts are great, friendly people and the guest house is exactly as listed and very clean! Seeing all the animals on the property was a really cool experience. It was a fun vacation for my husband, myself, our one year old, and our 2 dogs! I would highly recommend checking this place out.

Diamond in the Rough
Brittney and Jordan have done a fabulous job with this gem. I love seeing all of the free range wildlife. You will see anything from Turkeys, rabbits, Black Bucks, goats and many others. When you stay, make sure to check out Copper, their new calf. I cannot say how relaxing it is to stay here. I would like to stay a month and never leave the front or back porch. This place is ideal for a couple or individual. Again. Such a great place with the most friendly owners.

Nice and Cozy
What a diamond in the rough. The Circle D is a great place to stay, especially if attending the Patriot Academy. The host are great people, very friendly. Also, it's not that far from town. The wildlife is abundant, saw turkey, deer, rabbits and etc. In short, you can go wrong staying here.

A Restful Stay
My husband and I LOVED our stay. We came for a short birthday getaway. The owners took the time to blow up some balloons and add some extra sweet things upon our arrival. This is the safest we have ever felt at a VRBO especially considering it not being directly in Fredericksburg. The owners were incredibly friendly and hospitable. They truly wanted us to relax and enjoy our stay. Lastly, THEY ARE PUP FRIENDLY! Our dog loved all the animals and getting to roam around a bit. We hope to come back here soon.

Cute Guest House
Brittney & Jordan are wonderful hosts. This is our fourth stay at their guest house. Very homey and comfortable place to stay. Host provided all we needed to make breakfast for our stay. It is dog friendly and our dog liked checking out the goats, horses, and donkey. We love visiting Fredericksburg, and definitely will be back to stay at the Circle D guest house.

April 2023 visit
The accommodations were exactly as listed and pictured. Very peaceful and serene atmosphere. The hosts were very nice, welcoming, and friendly. What a pleasant surprise to find the refrigerator stocked with some surprises for the next morning breakfast! Our GPS sent us in the wrong direction as we approached the city. We ended up a long way off in the wrong direction. I messaged the host and received a phone call immediately. She gave us directions to get back on track to the house. The location was a little further away from town than what we expected, but it still only a short drive to get to the restaurants and shopping. It was really very relaxing to arrive back at the house each evening and enjoy the country atmosphere. The stargazing was amazing!! We also enjoyed seeing the wildlife in the area and the animals on this working ranch. Very nice trip!

The host was on the property but gave us the privacy a guest would like. It was nice to know that the host was nearby if we needed anything. The welcome note and all the little essentials that were left were very appreciated!!!! Pet Friendly!!! Just what we needed to get away!!

Bill Country Paradise
This was a great piece of paradise in the wilds of the Texas Hill Country! It was very quiet and secluded and was a great getaway from the hustle and bustle of Austin. It was very clean and well- maintained. We loved the chickens (my girlfriend and I each had our favorite) and the star gazing from the porch was fabulous. Thanks so much for a great weekend!

Everything about our rental was outstanding. There was only one thing that was a drawback and it was my fault for not noticing. We are both in our 80s and with the bedroom upstairs and the only bathroom downstairs it made the night time trips a little inconvenient.
