Settlers Crossing

We have been visiting Settlers Crossing for 20 plus years. It is always a nice break from the big city life in Dallas. All of the houses are perfectly decorated and always so clean. It is so convenient to downtown Fredericksburg and all the other surrounding towns. Highly recommend.

We stayed in the Bohl log cabin. It was very nice. The bedrooms are upstairs and the beds were comfortable. The bathroom, small kitchen and living space is downstairs. The stairs are steep, but manageable. There is a nice porch to sit and enjoy. The yard area is nicely maintained and road access and parking is very good. Water, juice, milk, and coffee is provided with a small refrigerator/freezer. The grounds are very nice with a walking trail around the property. We really enjoyed our stay and plan to return.

Great property and historic houses & cabins! Stayed in the Kusenberger Barn with my girlfriend during Spring Break and had an amazing experience in this comfy & beautiful barn. This is the place if you are looking for something quiet and/or romantic away from the crowd, with plenty of space, and perfect views of the stars & night sky. It was fun every morning watching the sheep & donkey with our first cup of coffee. It was also easy to check in (all places are clearly marked even in the dark), and Melissa was very friendly and helpful with the history and attractions of the area. If you are visiting for the vineyards, this is the perfect location near to a lot of them. Alstadt brewery is close too. We are already planning to go back and will definitely stay at Settlers! aron

The Owner was extremely aggressive & threatening & made us feel UNSAFE! It was a miserable awakening the first morning. The lady was beating on the door & trying to force her way in. I was asleep and my husband was in the restroom. She identified herself as the Owner & accused us of deliberately using the wrong cabin & trashing the place, using candles & being drunk. She was completely rude & threatening. This could have been resolved in a cordial, professional manner, since it was an obvious misunderstanding caused by inaccurate information presented to us & a late arrival on a rainy night with thunderstorms. As other reviews have stated, there were no check-in instructions, especially booking through AirBnB. We had no idea that we checked into the wrong cabin at 9:00 PM being dark & rainy. No instructions other than an address, which took us to her house, directly across from this cabin. No description or map to the cabin. It only said “the key is in the door” & the picture of the door with the wreath looked like the one on the website, so we went in. She should’ve checked AirBNB herself instead of blaming us! Regardless, she could have been polite instead of scaring the hell out of us with her false accusations and aggressive behavior! We had one glass of wine last night with LED Candles and then went to bed! DANGER!! Beautiful property but not worth $500/night and UNSTABLE owner!

Stayed at the Kusenberger Log Cabin- an awesome, authentic 1-story 1850's cabin with a covered patio with rocking chairs, limestone and log walls, stone floor, and beautiful fireplace! I absolutely LOVED it and it Exceeded my expectations! The cabin gave a feeling of seclusion, yet, it was a very short drive to the town center- about a 10 minute drive. The grounds were of natural setting and saw deer, sheep, and a miniature donkey. The cabin was clean, with a cute little kitchenette in an antique cabinet with all of the basic needs, and a pretty, clean and comfortable bed, and bathroom area. The only constructive drawback was there was not enough hot water for 2 back-to-back showers or to fill the tub and enjoy a bath (only filled about 1/4 of the tub with hot water) and the shower head diverter needs repair/replacement. Some door ways are very low, so tall people watch your heads- but as a 4'10 person, I loved being able to touch the top of the door jam (😉 lol)! I would definitely stay there again and would highly recommend.

My husband, adult son, his girlfriend and I had the best 4th of July weekend at Settler’s Crossing. The location was ideal as we went to Luckenbach for the Pat Green concert and the proximity to both the concert and to the parade in town on Main St made the trip even better. We appreciated the charm and history of the cabins and noticed the place was spotless. The bedding was super comfortable and the setting can’t be beat. We sat on the porch and watched deer, a miniature donkey, 2 day old lamb twins playing in the pasture, rabbits etc. What a perfect escape from the crazy world we live in.

I usually don't take the time to write a review, but my husband and I stayed their last week and it was awesome, can't wait to go back. Location was perfect, close to town and the vineyards, but we ended up staying on property most of our time to enjoy the relaxing beautiful setting with sheep and deer all around. The Cabins are historic and very charming with all the modern conveniences ~great beds, linens and towels. A great place to be recharged and refreshed, definitely planning another trip in the Fall to go back and stay.

Wonderful idea to restore historic properties and decorate with period antiques. This obviously took great effort. It is in the country a bit and includes a pastoral setting with deer and sheep who were affectionate and charming. This was my 3rd visit and my husband's first. Unfortunately, my husband was not as enthralled as I was, so I will not be returning with him (maybe a girls' trip). His issues were the "lack of truth in advertising" as this property is listed as a B&B, but they really just provide some muffins and mini-cinnamon rolls FOR ONE MORNING...they do NOT provide "breakfast" for the other mornings you are there (we should have had 3 breakfasts included in our fee but just had some muffins/tiny cinnamon rolls on the first day). Also, there is no DVD player or movies to watch...just a tv with very limited channels with not particularly entertaining television (they are not paying for many channels). Also, our phones did not work at all out there, so I assume the wifi connections need upgrading (or whatever is needed to make phones work). I went to Walmart and got pastries for breakfast, but my husband was not happy given the room rate. He is "old school" and just likes for people to do what they say that are going to do. The property and buildings are absolutely charming, and the interior design is spot on. If you go, remember to take your own food, as they really go to very little effort to fulfill the true meaning of a "bed and breakfast." One gets the impression while there that the owners bought this wonderful place and now regret it. You either like being in a service industry or you don't.

Settlers Crossing is definitely a unique experience! The old cabins are adorable and we loved sitting outside and having the donkey and the sheep come up to the fence! We brought our dog which had never been around farm animals before. She got used to them fairly quickly! If you’re looking for something different, this is the place!
