About this house rental
Relax and settle in to this newly renovated modern, ranch style home in the heart of Fredericksburg, TX. Your hosts, Emily and Craig, are an expat couple who have lived across the world for more that 10 years and who love to travel, but who fell in love with the charm of Fredericksburg after visiting and wanting to own slice of Texas. As homage to where they reside, Bab Al Shams translates to “Gateway to the Sun.” Appropriately named, this calming 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom retreat offers a beautifully appointed open concept living space and accommodates up to 6 guests, perfect for a weekend getaway with friends and family. Unwind in the cozy living room, prepare a delicious meal in the well stocked kitchen, or spend time relaxing in the back yard around the fire pit.

8 / 10Excellent·Jun 2026
Very nice property. A note to host, it would have been nice to know that the refrigerator didn't make ice prior to our arrival. There were not even ice trays. We had already gone to the store so we had to return to HEB for a bag of ice. The doors to every room were so squeaky and loud. We had minor trouble with the wifi and thermostat but we called the host company and they were very helpful. Overall, would recommend this house... just bring your own ice and water (if you aren't happy with tap water).
