In Fredericksburg for the eclipse
Overall, our stay was very nice. We enjoyed the pool area for the eclipse.
Problems,the Wi-Fi was very poor. The toilet ran after flushing. The suitcase stand was broken. There were broken cups in the cupboard, as if the glassware and dishes were not checked often.
Hosts were responsive to our concerns and sent assistance to our room very quickly. My husband fixed the toilet, the suitcase stand worked well enough during our stay and Wi-Fi was said to be poor due to event in town.

The property and neighborhood great. Loved the cottage we stayed in. Impressive bathroom and shower. Bed was comfortable! Only one issue someone left their undies in the recliner and I guess housekeeping didn’t notice. Would stay again.

Nice cottage at the end of Main Street
These little cottages are great, clean, well kept and at the end of Main Street. I would not consider them walking distance from part of Main Street that contains all the shops and dining. We drove to the center part of main and walked from where we parked. Otherwise it is a great place. The road noise is noticeable at certain times, but it is right on main so it is expected but to my wife and me, it did not detract from our stay.
We have recommended this place to friends and family as a definite place to try when they visit.

Lovely place to stay!
The property was well kept and room was easily accessible. Check in was a breeze. The room was spacious and just want we needed for a quick weekend trip. I'm a stickler for cleanliness and it met my expectations. The king bed was very comfy, nice picture on the TV and the little kitchen are with the Keurig, microwave and fridge was great. The bathroom was large, I really liked the separate his and hers vanities. The glass french doors into the restroom eliminates any privacy, though. A bit awkward....Overall, we would for sure come back and recommend this location to friends and family. Very charming and cozy.

Great Location
Everything was perfect and I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. The one complaint which I know is not the fault of anyone is the water pressure. If you want coffee in the room, bring your own cup! I didn't have time to make coffee so that wasn't a problem for me. It truly was a delightful stay.

Everything was wonderful at my room. I would suggest a room further back from street there is road noise. Also the room i was in had a tree branch rubbing roof, I know wind does not blow that much there but this particular night it was. I thought there were squirrels in the attic, rubbed all night so no sleep
