My husband and I travel here every year for our anniversary. We love the privacy each cottage offers, as well as the beautiful accommodations. We have recommended this property to many friends and will continue to do so.

My husband and I stayed in the El Jefe Suite and loved the layout. Gorgeous Fireplace, private sitting area outside with relaxing waterfall, the bed was nice, and we both enjoyed the tub. The only 2 things that would have made it perfect would be a standup shower (I am 7 months pregnant and it is hard to get in/out... More

We stayed in El Jefe on a Friday night (Yes! One Night Reservations Are Accepted!), and couldn't have been happier with this Guesthouse. The ground floor consists of a walled and gated patio (table and 2 chairs and corner fountain) which leads to the front door. Inside is a large room with king sized bed, antique desk, small table and... More

We stayed here for Thanksgiving this year and found it charming with the prettiest ivy covered courtyard with a tree swing in the middle. Maria's cabin had two bedrooms with two queen beds, a tiny kitchen sitting room area, a dressing area, a separate jacuzzi room, and half bath. It's located one block from Main Street so close to all... More

We came to Fredericksburg, TX for a 3 days trip from San Antonio and found this place online. It looked enchanting and it was. We stayed in El Jefe and loved it. It is truly a retreat with no TV. Some may go through withdrawal with that but we did not mind. There were CD of a variety of music... More

My husband and I stayed at Annie's two nights. The first night we arrived very late, so I was unable to unwind and relax in the huge bathtub. The second night I couldn't wait to get into the bath and relax. As I was sitting in the tub with only the light from my laptop computer (listening to music), one... More

The accommodations at Austin Street Retreat are lovely and rustic. I have stayed in the El Jefe Suite and Annie Suite and both were beautiful and truly romantic. Anytime I need to get away from it all I find myself returning here to unwind. The setting is peaceful, relaxing and soothing. The location is only a few blocks from the... More

If you're looking for a quiet, romantic, perfect place to get away with your wife/husband/partner, this is it! My wife and I spent our anniversary weekend in Fredericksburg and stayed in the "Kristen" cottage at Austin Street. We had an amazing experience overall and this room certainly played a big part in it. The suite is really spacious, the bed... More

My husband and I prefer less conventional B&Bs, so based on Tripadvisor reviews, we chose Austin Street Retreat's El Jefe suite for a recent get-away. Austin Street Retreat reservations are handled by Gastehaus Schmidt in Fredericksburg, and this is also where you will pick up and drop off room keys. We located Gastehaus Schmidt easily, and the employees were pleasant... More
