About this property

Recharge and Relax - Riverfront Home on 5 acres

Fisherman's Paradise is a modern home built to resemble a traditional German haus on 5 acres along the Pedernales River. It's rustic beauty, antiques, modern amenities, and views of the Pedernales River from every window along the back of the house will have you relaxing immediately. On rainy days, you will see the wet weather creek to the left of the house come to life with a small flow of water heading towards the Pedernales River. One of our favorite features of the property is the beautiful flat field that can be found by following the River Trail or the dirt road on the far right of the property.

It is a short 12 mile drive from Frederickburg, but the drive is so scenic you will not mind. The property is situated on what is now the part of the ghost town of Morris Ranch and your drive down Morris Ranch Road is like entering the past. The property book located in the house will have several pages of history and photographs.

Upon entering the front gates of the property, you will see a beautiful German style home with a large covered front porch to sit and enjoy nature. There are 5 beautiful acres for you to explore and relax along the Pedernales River. Bring your family, fishing poles, kayaks, and outdoor games. It is a great property for an adults only weekend or a family getaway.

It is truly our pleasure to welcome you to our home away from home in Fredericksburg. Until we are ready to retire on the Pedernales River, we are happy to offer nightly rentals for people who enjoy the peace of country living that is about 15 minutes from the historic downtown.

Although many visit Fredericksburg for shopping and the wineries, we have found that the relaxation possibilities are endless at Fisherman's Paradise. It is a great home to read a book, walk/drive/cycle to view the historic buildings that still remain from the Ghost Town of Morris Ranch, fish, explore, spend the day at "The Falls" and enjoy s'mores at the fire pit. It is impossible to be bored with so many outdoor activities for you and your family.

For the cycling enthusiasts, we are pleased to let you know that the house is located along the 3 beautiful cycling routes that range from 22 to 55 miles. Or, discover your own route and discover the historic buildings of Morris Ranch.

Fredricksburg getaway

This is our 3rd time staying at this home. Very peaceful property. Great private fishing away from city lights to enjoy the stars at night. Lots of room to enjoy outdoor activities with the family. I do wish there was a bit of shade down by the river as that is where we spend most of our time. Overall, our family really enjoys staying at this home.

Fantastic!

Our stay at Fisherman’s Paradise was perfect! The house was beautiful and comfortable. It had everything we could possibly need. It was quiet and away from town, but close enough to town to get there quickly. And we all caught fish! I can’t recommend this location enough!

Great stay

Perfect rental for ourselves and our three dogs. They enjoyed the property by the river about as much as we did. Great evenings by the fire pit, breakfasts in the courtyard and a well stocked kitchen. Beds were super comfy and bathrooms well appointed. We enjoyed the little antiques throughout the house.

Truly an amazing stay and very proactive communication from the host. Our kids and dog loved the property and kept saying the whole time when can we come back! Very peaceful, quiet, and beautiful.

Family Celebration in Fredericksburg

10/10 Our stay exceeded our high expectations. The property is a wonderful, relaxing destination to wind down after a busy day exploring Fredericksburg. Owner Stacy went above and beyond the property listing to ensure our stay was super comfortable including a fully stocked coffee bar, full size watermelon gift, fluffy bath towels, and artisanal soaps. Our family ranged from 18 to 80 years old and everyone had a great time. Thank you very much for sharing your beautiful home and property

Relaxing stay

My family and I had a wonderful time staying at this property!! It was peaceful, quiet, and relaxing! We enjoyed fishing on the property and also took several walks down to the falls which were so much fun to explore. It was an easy drive into Fredericksburg for shopping and dining. The beds were so comfortable and had the softest blankets! We will definitely stay here again next time we visit the area!

Hidden Gem in the TX Hill Country

We booked this property three years in advance for the Solar Eclipse, the only place that would allow booking that early. We were overwhelmed by the place from the moment we drove in. The location was peaceful with dark skies for star gazing, a yard full of wildflowers, and great views and access to the Pedernales river. The special touches from the towels folded into swans to the handmade soaps made this feel almost like a spa. We felt at home here, and can’t wait to book again in the future as Fredericksburg is one of our frequent destinations. Our host was fantastic, easy to communicate with, and was super quick to respond when we had questions. We talked about how we wanted to buy the property if we won the powerball. In our opinion, it’s the best location of all of Morris Ranch. Stay here, you will love it.

This is by far our favorite place in the hill country! The back porch with the river view is amazing, and you’re still only 20 minutes if you want to go town. The house has everything you could possibly need.

About the host

Hosted by Stacy Fisher

Host profile image
My husband and I ranch in West Texas but we dream of retiring in Fredericksburg one day. I literally see my future grandbabies running around this property making memories. Until then, we are happy we can share our home with you to make many memories.

What makes this property unique

It is a great location that is about 15 minutes from town and all the hustle that goes along with city life. Wake up relaxed and come home from a day of touring relaxed...or, stay at the house all day playing in the water. Bring your kayaks, paddle boats and fishing poles.
