Trip to wine-country
The place was exceptionally clean, had everything we needed and then some. It is close enough to Main Street where you can walk to it if you so desire. It is equipped and decorated in a way that makes you feel at home while you’re away. Everyone enjoyed their stay and is already talking about doing it again.

Thanksgiving in Freddy
Spent Thanksgiving in Freddy for the second year in a row. Hoping to make this a tradition since our adult children live within a couple of hours from there. The Art House did not disappoint! The house is modern yet cozy. The fireplace was the gathering point in the evenings when it was too cool to be outside. The kitchen was well stocked, the bedrooms and bathrooms are spacious with all of the amenities. Will definitely be back!

About the host

Host profile image
A little about your residence hostess: We are designers, dreamers, adventurous, athletic, TEXANS and travelers! We are always on the GO! This is our second home to design/build in Fredericksburg. Originally from west Texas, graduates of Texas Tech & UT-Austin, after a sabbatical in the eastern Caribbean on our sailboat, Sea Gypsy, we decided to settle in Fredericksburg. The traditional values intermingled with the progressive nature of the town, offered the perfect setting for our family of 4. We have traveled extensively, from youth hostiles to the 5-star parisian hotels…and feel confident that you will enjoy our home!

Published in DWELL Special Issue "Your Rooms We Love", AUSTIN HOME and more. Designed and built by the Owner/Artist, Cavan McMahon. This home is a true inspriation and a piece of ART. Owner/Real Estate Broker, Donna McMahon manage all of their properties. We hope that you enjoy your stay, in our awesome town, creating your memories!

The Art House is a fashion forward designers showcase with a paradise pool & patio area. We spent most of our time on the patio even though the house was outfitted with high end appliances and very cool furnishings!
