About this property

French Country Farmhouse on Baron's Creek - w/ Pool/Spa, Steps from Main Street!

FRENCH COUNTRY FARMHOUSE on BARON'S CREEK, steps from downtown, w/ 3BR/3bath, pool, spa, & fire pit!

Creekside Farmhouse is a beautiful 3 bedroom/3 bath home two blocks from Main Street with 2 master bedrooms w/ en suite baths, and a large bunkroom. Secluded on more than an acre, with a new pool/spa overlooking Baron's Creek there's LOTS of outdoor spaces to enjoy - including a firepit, swings, and 2 covered porches––which is hard to beat in downtown Fredericksburg.

Soaring ceilings greet you as you enter the stunning living room with a fireplace that leads to a fully-equipped kitchen. The spacious living room and dining area are right off of the kitchen & feature a 10--foot zinc-top dining table, huge sectional sofa, flat screen TV and Sonos sound system.

The downstairs master includes a king bed with 400+ thread count linens and an en suite bathroom with soaker tub and walk-in shower. Two sets of French doors at the backside of the house open up to a sitting porch and massive back-yard with a pool (as of October 1, 2024), built in fire-pit, and views of Baron's Creek and beyond.

Upstairs includes a second master bedroom with king size bed, en suite bathroom, and elegant furnishings as well as a custom-built bunkroom - featuring 2 queens, 2 doubles and 2 twins - all pillowtops with top of the line linens - capable of comfortably sleeping 8 adults or 10 children.. Situated in between is a cozy sitting room overlooking the living room that doubles as an additional sleeping area with a sleeper sofa.

The Creekside Carriage House in back can be added to your stay for larger groups or family reunions - sleeping an additional 5, and boasting breathtaking views of Baron's Creek and beyond. Go to vrbo/1156167 for more information on Creekside Carriage House.

Additional features: fully-stocked "cook's kitchen," washer/dryer, ironing board, large front and back porches with outdoor seating and dining, fire pit, walking distance to downtown, views.

Please note that standard rate is for 10 occupancy, and there is a $50 charge per additional guest, per night, up to the capacity of 12.

Great House in Fredericksburg

This house is amazing! Our family had a fantastic stay at this lovely home. It was a great location - walking distance to Main Street and yet it felt like it was away from all of the tourist activity. Any problems we had were corrected quickly. The grounds are lovely and we enjoyed being by the creek. Many thanks to the owner for sharing this wonderful property with us.

Gorgeous Property in a Perfect Location!

My husband, two sons, and I came to Fredericksburg for a couple nights away before Christmas. It's a beautiful, super comfy home located along a creek. It's a quick walk to all the restaurants and shopping on Main Street, but you still get the tranquility of the hill country! We had such a wonderful get away and would absolutely rent this property again the next time we come to town!

Amazing property

This is a perfect property for a large family or a couple families. Our teenagers absolutely loved the bunk room and the king beds were very comfortable. We enjoyed sitting out back as well as the hot tub. It’s a super quick drive to Main Street with plenty of shops and dining. We would definitely stay here again.

Friend Group Getaway

Our friend group thoroughly enjoyed this property. It's conveniently located on a large quiet lot with gorgeous views, while still within walking distance from downtown Fredericksburg shops and restaurants. The house is spacious with an open floor plan and fully stocked kitchen if you're planning to cook. And the property owner was quick to respond when we reached out while we were there. We will absolutely return to this property on future group trips to Fredericksburg. Highly recommend.

Eclipse Trip

Cute house. Quiet. Very easy walk to downtown Fredericksburg. Enough room for everyone to spread out. Beds in two master bedrooms very comfortable. My only suggestion would be window screens so people who like to sleep with windows open could have insect defenses. All together very nice experience though.

Perfect Stay!!

We stayed in this lovely house a few weeks ago for my husband’s 50th birthday and it was all around wonderful!! The house is better than described and the backyard/creek were perfect for my husband’s party. Beautiful furnishings and had more than enough room for our 9 family members. We always had excellent communication with Buck and even got the chance to meet him briefly during our stay. Great guy! You will not regret choosing this house for your Fredericksburg rental and the location can’t be beat!
