This is a great listen (about 13 minutes) of an interview that Jessica Mittel of Gastehaus Schmidt Lodging Service (our wonderful property managers) gave on wide-ranging topics but most interesting was the positive impact that vacation rentals have on preserving historic homes like ours. Give it a listen and start making plans for the Fall!

Public Radio Station recently spotlighted the art of managing historic German guesthouses in Fredericksburg, Texas, showcasing Jessica Mittel, the proprietor of Gästehaus Schmidt. We recommend giving it a listen through the link below. 🏡

Fall is a great time to visit Fredericksburg! So many festivals, the weather starts to cool down, and there is a solar eclipse on Oct 14th too!

With the return of the fall season, there are plenty of reasons to take your vacation in the Texas Hill Country.

It’s great to see Fredericksburg get national attention from Condé Nast. A great read that mentions some of the great restaurants and wineries as well as a bit of history.

Texas Hill Country town of Fredericksburg, now a legitimate wine destination, is primed for its moment in the sun.
