The home is dog-friendly and will accept up to two dogs that each 30 lbs or less. However, there is a pet fee of $27/dog/night (before tax). Due to the fact that HomeAway/VRBO does not allow us to charge for more than one dog at the time of booking, please let us know if you will be bringing more than one dog, so that we can make sure that you are charged the correct amount. If you bring more than one dog and do not let us know, you will be charged accordingly. Furthermore, please bring crates for your dogs and crate them in your absence from the house, do not allow the dogs on furniture or beds, and pick up and properly dispose of their waste. If these rules are not followed, there will be an additional $200 charge added to your reservation. Dogs are not allowed to wander unattended on the property. Neighbors have livestock and allow hunting on their properties, so it is extremely important that dogs do not cross the fence lines.
Please be aware that the house has an exterior camera on its front that faces the driveway and front porch.
Please Note: You are renting a cabin in the Hill Country which means you may encounter wildlife (Snakes, Deer, Racoons, ETC). Please be aware of your surroundings, and take caution while driving at night. You may also encounter the various bugs, spiders, scorpions and mice that live in the country AND sometimes do make their way inside. All properties do utilize pest control services on a regular basis BUT this does not guarantee no pests or bugs will be visible.

This is a great property in a fantastic location - close enough to town to be 15 min from everything, but far enough out to be "away." I only have 2 criticisms. 1) the listing and pictures identify an outdoor dining space. It exists, but during our stay it was covered in discarded packing materials and leaves. Clearly no one had tidied it or swept it out. 2) The hot tub was not ready for guests. We didn't try it until day 2 of our stay and found it at 81 degrees. From there, it takes 2-3 hours to warm up to 104 degrees. That wouldn't be an issue if the check-in instructions said anything like "activate hot tub upon arrival" or something. We hadn't planned for a 3 hour wait between a desire to use the hot tub and the ability to use the hot tub. So, it was pretty much a wasted amenity for us. Otherwise the space was plenty big with everything you need for a weekend away. Knowing what I know now, I would definitely stay here again. I would just plan things differently.

We really enjoyed the cute and fizy Hummingbird Haus, especially the beautiful country location with a great view out front and nice pond with a viewing platform in back.

If you're ever looking for a house to stay in countryside near Fredericksburg, TX, I highly recommend the Hummingbird Haus. A restorative break was had by all who stayed here.
6.0 / 10.0Average·Jul 2025
House was nice and a good size but there were not any window coverings on any of the windows. Road to the house had major potholes in it. Surroundings were very unkempt and didn’t feel safe walking around outside because grass and weeds were too high. There was a dead limb on one side of the front yard. The grill was pretty much unusable because charcoal was left in the grill and the rack was filthy. There wasn’t anything to clean it with and trying to burn it off would not work. We were going to broil our food in the oven but there was not a pan that would work for that. The kitchen lacked the necessary pans, etc. also, the kitchen lacked a few things. There was not any foil. Saran Wrap or anything to use to cover food with or plastic containers to keep it in. No salt and pepper shakers. We go every year somewhere and every other place has these things in the cabin. You might want to put that on your listing for people to bring that kind of stuff. Also, the dishes were dirty! We had to wash them before we could use them. It was very hard to prepare a meal because of lack of cooking utensils. We feel the kitchen was not prepared for cooking. The fire extension you said was there, we found in the garage on the floor. Doubt it would work if needed. The road to get to the house was full if pot holes and not car friendly. If you were in a truck, you probably could have made it a little better. Didn’t see much wild life but that was mute will try to write more somewhere
