I would gladly stay here again in the future. The house was relaxing, the deer were neat to see 20 yards away with out spooking off. Right outside of town.
Very relaxing, close to town, but felt secluded. Enjoyed watching the deer and wild turkeys.

Reviewer Comments:
We really enjoyed our trip overall. We loved seeing the deer right off the back porch, but you need to bring your own corn. We had 13 does and 2 bucks one day eating up the corn we left them. They seem to be pretty tame. If I could change one thing, it would be the rainfall shower head that is about 2 feet too tall and having a hand held shower head to rinse with is desperately needed instead of a red solo cup. Hubby complained of bed but I slept fine with four back surgeries and a back of Titanium from top to bottom. I couldn't figure out the filtering system of hot tub unless they empty it after each guest since there is no filter. Water appeared nice and clear along with jets and I am OCD about cleanliness. I did have to sweep the floor when we arrived, and call for more towels and garbage bags, but they took care of it right away. We would stay again, maybe check out another cabin next visit. The keeper of the cabin was great about taking care of our needs.

Reviewer Comments:
Our stay was to celebrate my husband’s birthday and have a relaxing weekend getaway. Our only “musts” were a hot tub and king size bed. The cabin was very clean and cute upon arrival. It was a little bigger than other cabins we have stayed in before so that was a nice surprise. It felt like we were far out in the country but we were only 8 mins from Main Street which was super nice. We took others suggestions and bought some deer corn at HEB. We had some amazing interactions with wildlife and deer watching. It was huge added bonus. The hot tub was great as well. My only complaint would be the mattress. It wasn’t very comfortable and probably has met its limit of life. Time to replace it. That’s the only reason for 4 stars. Other than that we are excited to return again in the future.

Reviewer Comments:
We have stayed here many times, have never liked the shower, a hand held spray would be so much better. We that love the floor plan. And area Deer feeder was empty. So we bought our own corn to put out as the deer are the main entertainment out here My husband is on a special diet so I cook most meals Kitchen is well supplied but this time every cooking utensil. Pan flipper etc was put away dirty. With dried food on them. Gross. Also the frying pan and a pot Years back. We received a very Nice welcome basket with snacks! We really enjoyed that, And vouchers for discount or free items from businesses in town New owners don’t do that anymore.... Disappointing Hot tub had several non working jets. And wasn’t as nice as the previous one , we have stayed at all the applian way cabins, they are aging and need to be updated. Better tv. Use to have dvds to watch another blanket would have been nice, all in all for the price we will probably try somewhere different next time
My spouse and I stayed here for a long weekend. The cabin was very clean and comfortable. It’s cuter in person! We enjoyed the hot tub and fire place very much, and enjoyed seeing the many deer in the backyard. We hope to return soon.

The location was peaceful, relaxing, private, and just minutes away from Main Street Fredericksburg, local wineries and great food. Our mornings on the deck with a cup of coffee, views of the hills and deer was just what we needed to relax from big city life. After a long day of shopping and walking, we got to return to our cottage to a hot tub. Can’t wait to come back.

Was very nice and we enjoyed the privacy along with the outdoors
We really enjoyed our stay and the location. We were just a few moments from town but could have been a thousand miles away. There was a great breeze each morning on the back porch and we enjoyed our coffee and watching the deer and humming birds. The cabin is perfect for two people very private and comfortable.
We loved the view and how peaceful it was. Really enjoyed seeing all the wildlife! The cabin was perfect, just far out enough to get away from town but not too far of a drive to go explore Fredericksburg.
Loved this cabin, not far from town but just far enough! Great views on front patio, deer, turkeys and birds galore, hot tub was nice at end of day! Everything was as shown.

We have been staying at the Appian Way Cottages for years. They are our favorite places to getaway 2-3 times per year. They have beautiful views of wildlife in the Hill Country. Equipped with a full kitchen and patios with hot tubs to enjoy the scenery. We love our experience every time we visit.
My husband found this cabin for a weekend getaway and it was absolutely perfect for two people! The location feels secluded but is still a short drive from Main Street in Fredericksburg. We absolutely loved seeing the deer in the back yard both morning and evening. The gas fireplace was an additional bonus! Super cozy cabin, can’t wait to come back.
My husband and I loved our stay. The cabin is in a nicely secluded area and felt very private, yet we were only a short drive from Main. The wildlife is amazing! We saw so many deer! We had coffee on the back porch with the deer and birds every morning, explored the area which offers so many things to do, then relaxed under the stars in the hot tub each night. Highly recommend! We will be back!
This property was close to Fredericksburg, but still secluded enough away. The hot tub was great for relaxing in the evenings after a day in Fredericksburg. Wildlife in the morning for you to see when sitting on the porch having coffee. Can't wait to return for another relaxing weekend.

This cabin was amazing with a great view. When we arrived the hot tub was broken apparently right before got there. I called to ask about it and was informed of the need for repairs. That was one of the main reasons we booked it. The manager saved the day and and gave us another cabin maybe 800yds away from this one that seemed to be brand new, according to the guest book we were the second people to stay there. All around around great property and amenities the grounds keeper came by each morning and feed the deer and filled the bird feeders so you will have plenty of wildlife to see both day and night. It is located about 10m from Main Street fredricksburg so it’s a short drive to anything you want to see or do. We will definitely stay there again.

This cabin was just a couple minutes outside of town and was in a nice quiet area. It had a beautiful view from the back porch. We saw over 20 deer while staying here! The privacy and hot tub added to the relaxation of the cabin.
This property was perfect for a weekend getaway. Quiet place watching the deer come in to eat every morning. Short drive into town to enjoy the food and shopping.

Perfect little escape. We have been enjoying this little place for years. It's just far enough away from Fredericksburg that we can enjoy it by day and then relax by night in the hot tub out back. There is a full kitchen available to cook or warm things up. We've never been disappointed with our weekend getaway.Just fyi Mondays quite a few of the stores are closed.
Perfect for our weekend getaway close to town, nice views quiet and relaxing. Really enjoy waking up and having coffee on the back porch while watching the deer and hummingbirds. Definitely would recommend, and would come back and rent again.
