A Great Place with a Very Cool History
Recent Guest, Weatherford, TX United States
We had a wonderful, relaxing stay. The cabin is secluded and feels very private, but is only a few minutes out of town so it’s also convenient. The history of our cabin was also very interesting. We saw so many deer, and relaxed out in the hammock under the trees. I can’t say enough great things about our time there. The communication with Fredericksburg Escapes couldn’t have been better. Would 100% go back again!

Thank you Heather for being our guest. We look forward to your return visit.
Delightful Getaway!
Gaye Lynn H., Stillwater, OK United States
There are few places which exude such charm and peace as you find at Ab Butler's Dogtrot cabin. We enjoyed sitting outside with the butterflies, birds, and occasional moo from nearby cattle and soft breezes! You can't go wrong with this little piece of heaven!!
