Quirky layout

We had 5 couples so the 5 king beds and 5 full baths was a bonus. However we didn’t realize the layout is quirky and it took some negotiating to figure out which bathroom each couple would use and which entrance they would use to avoid interfering with other’s privacy.

Quiet Nice Home Close to Main Street

This house is deceptive at first but once you go inside you’ll be surprised at how big it is. Very old timey feel to it but that’s what makes it great. Location is awesome too since it was only a 5 mins drive to Main Street. Our group loved the house, would definitely stay again.

Large space for group!

The house was in a convenient location and very close to Main. Having 5 king beds and 5 bathrooms was a plus. The house layout is very odd, and I do feel like there was wasted space, but compared to some rentals where beds are in closets it was better to have more space than needed.The kitchen was the biggest issue. It is small for the house overall, but missing many key items but also had duplicates of other items. Many items were not clean (no dishwasher pods provided either!) and no kitchen towels available. I would pack a frying pan, dishwasher pods, extra dish soap and foil/parchment/wax paper to coat cooking surfaces

Great House

This is a beautiful old, historic house. We had 8 adults, and we all loved the house! It was clean and well taken care of. It’s in a great location in Fredericksburg. I would definitely book it again.

Nice Place

Great old style house. Inside well done, comfortable and decorated. Lawn care has been neglected. Home advertised as blocks from historic district. True, blocks from northern boundary of historic district, but many, many blocks from downtown historic district.

Fun Family Trip

The charming, historic Magnolia House is spacious, clean, tastefully decorated and gives you a nice, comfortable feeling. It was a great place for our family to get together. The layout is unique but knowing that the house was a former bed and breakfast, it makes sense (two rooms have outdoor entry access if you do not want to go through the house). Wish the weather had been a little cooler so we could have enjoyed the outdoor amenities. Very easy check-in and check-out.

Enjoyed our Stay

It was a charming old house that was just the right size for our group of 9. The layout of the home was a little odd but the rooms were a good size. Our only complaints were that it did seem to need a little TLC since it was a little in disrepair. We enjoyed the hot tub in the back of the main house, we did not use the second smaller one, but it never really got warm hot enough for us. Other thank that really really enjoyed our stay.

Weekend Getaway

There was plenty of space for four couples to enjoy a long weekend exploring the area. Very convenient to downtown yet far enough away to be quiet. Because of the age of the house, the bedroom / bath arrangement was unique but functional. Kitchen wasn't stocked necessarily for robust culinary efforts and some of the glassware needed to be washed before using. Hot tub was in great condition and very relaxing.

Our stay at the Magnolia House for three nights was very comfortable and satisfying. The house made our Ladies Trip enjoyable with all it's Vintage decor and modern amenities. Close to the shopping and the local eateries and wineries we so love . Neighborhood was quiet all night and awakened to the birds singing each morning. Thank You Gasthaus !

The house was perfect for the 10 of us!!! I had the impression that each bedroom had its own bathroom but that's not the case....only 3 bathrooms downstairs.....Good thing we are all great friends!!! The hot tub could have been warmer than 90 degrees.....

Magnolia House

The house is close to Main St, which made it nice for our group. The house is old and has apparently been added on to and, as such, is ill-arranged. There are two bathrooms upstairs, but only one bedroom. That being said, it was nice to have 5 bedrooms. We did have an issue with one bathroom lavatory being VERY slow to drain, but we worked around it okay. This was our second time to stay in the house, but we believed that because it is on the market to be sold, the maintenance is being somewhat overlooked. The back yard needed MUCH attention. I don't think we would stay there again.

Magnolia House is truly a gem. It has many inviting areas to sit and relax or to fellowship with others. We had a wonderful time in Fredricksburg and our accommodations made the time very special.

Good house, needs maintenance and better kitchenware

It is a nice house with good common space for friends/family to get together. Unfortunately, the kitchen is not that well equipped. No proper serving spoons or cutlery. Dishwasher did not work properly. The fridge seems to leak. Not enough kitchen towels. House needs better maintenance: shaky doorknobs and faucets

Magnolia House

We enjoyed our stay and found the house clean and providing practically everything we could possibly need. However, the toilet in the smallest bathroom toward the rear of the house hardly flushed. The toilet seat in the bathroom next to the kitchen had a major crack. Both of those should have been corrected before our arrival. Also, there is an over-abundance of dishes and glasses but a severe shortage of silverware in the kitchen. We found no knives for place settings. Also, we found ONE placemat but enough napkins to service a large restaurant. Sometimes, small things can become big. I don't mean to be negative but I do think these are things that should be addressed.
