The Space:

Prime Location in the Heart of Hill Country:

Vino Vida is located in a quiet, residential neighborhood that puts you within an easy walk or short drive of everything Fredericksburg is famous for: coffee shops, restaurants, live music, boutique shopping, museums, and, critically, the many marvelous wineries. We are also just two blocks from the new Grand Central at Milam. Explore the Hill Country's wine road and return to the timeless charm of your historic retreat. Vino Vida isn’t just where you stay. It’s how you feel while you’re here!



Relax in the living room with original wood floors, a cozy gas log fireplace, a new LG smart TV, and a SONOS sound system. The master suite includes a dedicated surround sound music/theater system. The upstairs is built in the old German style, with an original clawfoot tub, king sized bed and two full-sized bunk beds (with one additional roll-out) await your guests. New LED lighting and ceiling fans make for a cozy, comfortable experience. Every bed has ideal reading lights and personal charging stations.



Gourmet Ready Kitchen: The fully furnished, old-style kitchen is ready for entertaining, featuring stainless steel appliances, two ovens, a wine refrigerator, and a small dishwasher. Dine together at the large butcher block table overlooking the back patio. A beautiful gas log set has been added to the large fireplace which was originally used for cooking and heating the house.
