About this property

Big Sky Guest House, 2bd, 1bath, Enjoy the stars in Fredericksburg TX!

  • Get away from it all at the Big Sky Guest House. Located 15 miles from Downtown Fredericksburg, Big Sky Guest House is the perfect spot to get away from the stress of everyday life. The only traffic jam you'll experience here is when the local cows, goats, or sheep decide the grass really is greener on the other side!

    Bring your telescope or your camera to enjoy a night sky unspoiled by the lights of the big city, or just sit out on the front porch with the beverage of your choice and drink it in with your eyes. In the morning, enjoy a cup of coffee or tea on the back landing while you watch the sun come up to the sounds of nature and feel your stress melt away.

    Into riding a motorcycle or a bike? Our back roads offer a beautiful ride, with 8.3 miles to Highway 87 and 8.7 miles to Highway 290. For hikers, we are just a short drive (22 miles) to Enchanted Rock.

    If you decide you need a little more excitement (and live music), Hilltop Cafe is a mere 10 miles away and in 20 minutes you can be enjoying brisket mac and cheese at Hondo's. Fredericksburg offers a variety of shopping opportunities, the National Museum of the Pacific War, The Pioneer Museum, and many delicious eateries. Multiple Fredericksburg wineries and distilleries are within a short drive, and you can't miss going to Luckenbach for some live music at the dance hall!

    The Big Sky Guest House is located on a 28-acre ranch, and your hosts live on property in a separate residence. Feel free to wander! Some of the wildlife you may see: hawks, humming birds, painted buntings and other songbirds, wild turkeys, white tailed deer, fox, roadrunners, jack rabbits, and armadillos. You'll also see and hear the not-so-wild goats, sheep, cows, llamas, and donkeys on neighboring ranches.

    The rustic, metal roofed guest house offers:
    Bedroom 1: king bed;
    Bedroom 2: queen bed and twin-size bunk beds;
    1 bathroom with walk-in shower;
    Kitchenette including a Keurig coffee maker (we provide pods for coffee and tea), drip coffeemaker (bring your own coffee), toaster oven, microwave, refrigerator/freezer, electric skillet, double burner hot plate. If you prefer to cook outside, there is a gas grill on the back porch. There is a large living/dining area where you can gather to talk about your adventures, as well as a DVD player with 32” smart TV and a selection of DVDs available.

    Need to stay connected? Cell service and satellite internet are present. Video conferencing will have latency -FYI.

    ***NOTE: We provide pillows, sheets, blankets/quilts, and towel sets. However, we know that you may prefer to bring your own pillows, linens, and towels. Not a problem! Just let us know and we will remove the bedding and/or towels. We provide dish soap, hand soap, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash.

My wife and I have 3 requirements for a VRBO; cleanliness, quiet, & comfort. Big Sky nailed all 3 plus we enjoyed beautiful sunrises, no city noise, an amazing array of wildlife to watch, and a beautiful drive through the country to reach Big Sky. We wanted to stay close to Fredericksburg, but just far enough away that we could see stars at night and not hear the city. Big Sky is perfect. This is definitely our "go to" place for future Fredericksburg trips.

Absolute Serenity

This house was super clean, smelled amazing, and so welcoming. We had everything we needed plus some. Had coffee watching the Longhorns graze every morning. It was such a peaceful place to stay. The owners Eric and Jenny welcomed us personally which was such a nice touch. Will definitely be staying here again!

Wonderful Hosts and Property

We loved our stay. It was the perfect location for us we had family about 5 miles away. The property was immaculately clean and they provided many great items. They had coffee, toiletries and even made us ice and put water in the fridge. We loved the view, fire pit and longhorn cows walking around. The hosts were very communicative and helpful. Overall it was just a great experience.

Thanksgiving Getaway

This was so surprisingly awesome. It is a perfect getaway from suburban life. The owners made us feel like family. The guest house is on their property but far enough away that you feel on your own piece of heaven. We truly enjoy the animal life around us. We will be back (I hope).

Great long weekend!

We drove in with our three littles from Houston for a long weekend. The drive is fun as there is a lot of livestock to see that entertained the kids on the country roads. The hosts were very gracious with things like bottled water and firewood and were extremely great communicators prior to and throughout the stay. We enjoyed walking the property with the kids and long camp fires in the evening. We had a great time!

Eric and Jenny's guest house is an extremely nice, very comfortable place to stay while exploring Texas hill country and local wineries. They are amazing hosts and excellent communicators about everything related to the stay and the area. We had lots of questions which they very promptly answered. We would highly recommend Eric and Jenny's guest house to anyone wanting to spend some time exploring Texas hill country and enjoy some peace and quiet!

Stars and Longhorns

We really enjoyed our stay! The kids loved seeing the longhorns walking around close by. We got to relax and enjoy the scenery by the fire pit. With the clear sky, the stars are so pretty! The house has ample space and games inside. My daughter loved making hot chocolate in the coffee maker, so it was great that was an option! We liked chatting with Eric and Jenny when we saw them. It is about 25 minutes to town, but there are a lot of animals to see on the drive!

Came for Oktoberfest, will come back for the breathtaking sky and amazing hosts.

The home is so inviting and comfortable. We really enjoyed our weekend at the property. We spent Saturday in Fredricksburg at Oktoberfest, the drive into town is fun with the winding roads, views and animal sightings. While at the property our family had fun watching and talking to Rocky and Bullwinkle. We also brought our telescope along and were not disappointed with what we could see. The sky is beautiful. Jenny and Eric went above and beyond. We were celebrating our 13 yo birthday and they decorated the table with balloons and flowers, gave her a card and her favorite dessert. She definitely felt special!! They even sent us easy to follow directions. Thank you for being a part of our fantastic weekend getaway.

Only reason I left 5 stars, is because I couldn't leave 10. Property was extremely clean and well organized. If you are looking to get away from the hustle for a bit and enjoy some peace and quiet. I highly recommend looking into this spot. It's still just a quick 25-30 minutes from Enchanted Rock or downtown Fredericksburg. Eric and Jenny were very friendly and easy to book with. They provided very detail directions and instructions, that made the whole process very smooth. When we come back down to Fredericksburg, no need to look elsewhere.

Big Sky Guest House is such a wonderful retreat! We have stayed before and always check if it's open when planning another visit to Hill Country. The hosts are lovely people who are happy to answer questions and welcome you in. If you are visiting Fredericksburg, but want to enjoy those winding roads to and from town, this is a great place to stay!
