Historic Adams Travis Haus is one of only seven historic houses in Fredericksburg on the Gillespie County Historical Society Tour in November of 2022. With features such as stone walls and high ceilings, this home retains much of its original appeal while still possessing the modern conveniences needed to make your stay comfortable. A romantic getaway for two located just a couple of blocks from downtown Fredericksburg's Main Street and Marktplatz.

Gather in the cozy living room in the Adams Travis house, which is furnished with a spacious leather sofa and multiple accent chairs. The exposed stone walls throughout the living room make you feel as if you've stepped into a bygone era. The charm continues in the kitchen, which retains much of this historic home's original cabinetry. A full kitchen with a refrigerator, stove, and oven makes extended stays convenient. All of the dishes, utensils, and cookware needed for preparing meals is provided, which can be enjoyed at the eat-in kitchen table or more formal table in the separate dining room.

The cool tile underfoot and soft neutral colors in the master bedroom make this a restful haven. The room is spacious and airy. Soft white linens drape the bed, while two ambiance lights hanging over the bed add a modern touch. A flat screen TV is located in the bedroom for unwinding with a movie in the evening. It is unobtrusive, allowing you also to unplug and disconnect from the world during your getaway if you so choose. Take plenty of time getting ready in the spacious bathroom, where you can pull a stool up to the extended vanity. The bathroom also features a fabulous marble and travertine walk-in shower.

Enjoy extended living space outside, where you can relax in your hand-made Amish gliders around the fire-pit or take a long soak in your own private hot tub. In addition to this home's amenities, all of the activities offered in downtown Fredericksburg are just a short stroll away. Located just a couple of blocks off of Fredericksburg's historic Main Street, you can easily walk to a host of shops, restaurants, wine tasting rooms, and art galleries from your accommodations. Pick up your favorite bottle of wine from one of the many vineyards and wineries in the Fredericksburg area, and retreat back to the privacy of the romantic Adams Travis house! If you are looking for a compound that will sleep up to 4 Fred Haus sits right next door to Adams Travis house, rent both for a couples weekend, Friend's getaway or girls retreat!

Great spot, close to Main Street

This older home was nice and cozy. It was close to Main Street, and we enjoyed our stay very much. The only negatives were the strong ash smell from fireplace and some of the dishes were dirty, and had to be washed before we used them.

All 5 doors on the house…do not provide a secure feeling. Yes, they lock but remain very loose when closed & locked - could easily be pushed in. Coffee cups & silverware were not clean. I had to wash everything we needed prior to using. Two of three kitchen lightbulbs were out. The TV/router had issues but were resolved but had to hit the router power button “on” every time we wanted to turn on the TV. Great fireplace & starter logs - we bought wood. Enjoyed hot tub. Coffee maker & coffee were great. The sugar provided in the drawer below the coffee maker is powdered sugar. Need granulated sugar. Plenty of nice bathroom towels. Need more kitchen towels. Comfy couch! Comfy mattress & pillows!! Extra quilts appreciated! All amenities in this unit should be listed on your site so visitors know what all is provided and what they will need bring with them. There was no mention of the washer/dryer in the house - very important!

Cozy Home for getaway

My husband and I planned a getaway weekend to Texas wine country. We wanted walking distance to Main Street and got just that. The home is excellent in decor and cleanliness. We would have enjoyed a television in the bedroom but we made it work with our iPad. The whole process of booking along with getting answers to questions along the way went very well. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you for such a pleasant place to rest and refresh! I especially loved the front porch with the rockers in the morning while reading and sipping my coffee.

Beautiful Historical Home

Very comfortable home with modernization as well as maintaining it's historical appearance. The decor and trim is beautiful! We loved the stone walls, high ceilings and cool floors after a hot day outside, especially for our dogs. We appreciate being able to bring our pets and how friendly Fredericksburg is to dogs. For future guests with pets: you will need to walk them on a leash as the back fenced area is very small. The other Haus on the property has a bigger fenced area. This was fine for us this time since it was too hot to leave the dogs out or for us to use the hot tub.

2 night get away

Overall wonderful place. Walk to town and Charming building. Suggest check hot water temperature, its almost dangerous. Also, asking guest to do the dishes before leaving may not be best, wine glasses were dirty when we arrived.

Great Location while in Fredericksburg

It was a very unique property and the location was great. We found that the kitchen wasn’t well appointed for much cooking. The hot tub cover is in need of replacement. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

Very cozy cabin and nice stay. Only negative comment is that the doors are not sealed well. It was in the 20s for our stay so it was quite chilly in the living area.needs new weather stripping!! The fireplace was nice though!!

Charming Oct Getaway

Quaint, spacious and charming couples getaway. We walked everywhere around Fredericksburg from the house. Enjoyed the cabin a lot, cooked from the kitchen, the corner location can get a little noisy, and the back porch / hot tub was a little less inviting than the pictures portrayed. Overall relaxing and great experience.
