We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again! The cottage was quiet, cozy, and had everything we needed and more. I especially loved relaxing on the back porch with a cup of coffee and watching the local wildlife. It was the perfect peaceful getaway.

We love staying here when we come to Fredericksburg. We have stayed here 4 times now and loved it each time. The home is warm and inviting when you arrive and we love all of the personal touches that are added to the charm of the home. We love the location. You can be in downtown in less than 5 minutes but it feels like you're out in the country while sitting on the back porch watching and feeding the deer that come up just 10 feet away. We will always try to stay here when we come to town!!

We had such a delightful time at this wonderful little cottage. The property was clean. Instructions for everything were made clear and easy. We got to wake up and see deer eating 10 feet away from us. And the butterflies flitting around our front as you walk in really gives this cottage a magical touch. Would definitely stay here again.

Our stay was peaceful and relaxing. The location is just a few minutes away from Main Street, but on the edge of country. We enjoyed our evening visits from deer, which we were able to feed with corn, provided by our host. The place was well kept, clean and had most everything we needed to cook, eat with and sleep comfortably. If we visit Fredericksburg again, we’ll definitely arrange to stay here.

Lovely & peaceful

This is a lovely, nicely furnished cottage that is perfect for two. If mornings with coffee, or evenings with a glass of wine spent on the back porch with deer and birds to keep you company appeals to you, you’ll love this cottage. And it’s only a 5 minute drive to the historic Main Street. We loved our stay!

The stay was great. I did exactly what I had intended to do and that was absolutely nothing. Really enjoyed feeding the deer (corn provided). Just about everything was provided, snacks, some juices, cooking and eating utensils, you name it. The owners were right next door but you really didn’t know it. Great stay, can’t wait to book again.

The Samples are amazing host! They thought of everything you would need. The Samples are very detail people and their hospitality is superb.

Fredericksburg cottage

This cottage was the perfect accommodation for a Fredericksburg stay. It was very close to Main St yet still felt as though you had plenty of quiet countryside space with wildlife. It had special touches that fit the town's heritage and was clean, spacious, and detail oriented with every convenience you would need for a stay. I would highly recommend and would reserve it again if staying in this area.
