Great stay, could use some improvement

We had a great time overall at the Green Pony but there are definitely some improvements that could be made to make the stay excellent. First of all, there was dog hair everywhere! I realize it was pet friendly but it was excessive. Neither of the bathrooms or the bedrooms had locks on them. Mostly not a big deal but one bathroom is right off of the kitchen and with kids, you have no idea who will walk in. The kitchen had very limited cooking utensils. We found a dog brush in the same drawer as some of the utensils! There is no table set up so we had to move it out in order to eat our meals. The small bathroom smelled like sewage for two days. And lastly, I realize it was mentioned in the listing but the road noise is excessive.

Great space for Family Gathering

Grandpa, with son, two daughters in law, and two infant grandkids made great use of the space. The extra large closet was nice for all the kids gear and plenty of space to spread out. The back patio was delightful all day in the shade, for early morning coffee, and even after we got home for the day to be outside while the kids were getting tucked in inside.

Out of all the places we have stayed in Fredericksburg this was our favorite.

This home is perfect for just two or up to 6 people. Located in a quiet neighborhood. Just wish they had an area for a fire pit but this is a great place and will be back!!!

Great house

We really enjoyed our stay. The location is good and even though it is on a busy street the traffic noise is not bad. The home is spacious and comfortable and the large fenced backyard was great for our little pups. It would have been nice to have a tv in the master bedroom but we made due without one. We will definitely stay here again especially if we have others traveling with us as there was plenty of room. Thanks for a great stay!

Great stay at The Green Pony

This property was awesome!!! It was perfect for us and our two small dogs. The fenced backyard and patio was awesome. The king bed was comfortable and everything was clean. All the amenities were top notch. We really enjoyed staying here and the customer service at Gasthaus was amazing!

Not bad

Very nice decor and comfortable home to stay in. Close to town but on a very busy corner. Tons of dead insects under and behind the couch. Although they have a door with code lock, they ask you stop by their office to pick up physical keys.

Constant Traffic Noise- Do not Stay Here!!

Unfortunately stayed here Dec.21-24. If I could give zero stars, I would. This renovated house is on an extremely busy street which runs into a main thoroughfare. There is Constant Traffic noise all day and night; not just cars but large trucks. It sounded like they were coming through the master bedroom. I called the Property Owner immediately after the first night when none of us had slept. It was clear she wouldn’t refund any of money we spent. This was our family Christmas vacation and it was horrible because none of us slept. I’ve been using VRBO for over 10 years and never had to make a complaint. The property owner doesn’t care, that was clear. She never checked on us after I made the complaint after the first night, and we couldn’t find other accommodations since it was Christmas. They should be ashamed to rent this property at such a high price knowing of this issue. No integrity or honesty. I would NEVER recommend this place or Gastehaus Schmidt, the rental company.

Nice House but Stay Could Have Been better

I really liked the house overall. Good sized living room, decent kitchen, and comfortable patio. There were three bedrooms with plenty of space for everyone that stayed over. I want to point out a couple of things. The Wifi didn't work and most of our bathroom towels were wet/damp. I reached out to the owner and they never answered. That was frustrating. Fredericksburg is a great town and this place is nicely located. easy enough to get to all the wineries.
