The historic Pioneer Haus was built in 1848 and was one of the first homes constructed of natural resources in the budding town of Fredericksburg by the Kneese family who had recently immigrated from Germany. The main living area maintains the rustic charm of the wood and plaster walls that have withstood the test of 175 years. An early meeting place of the Methodist Church, the home has seen several additions and hosted many notables over the years of use. Our vision for this property is not about changing it, it's about highlighting the historical value while enhancing the modern comforts. This is more than a weekend rental, it is a legacy property that immerses your group in the history of Fredericksburg and the heritage of the pioneers who settled this rugged land. Admire up close the craftsmanship of the hand hewn timber, the chiseled stones and square hammered nails. Step out the front door and enjoy the heartbeat of the city. Easily walk to shops, parks, churches and restaurants. There is no fussing with parking on Main Street, just leave your car in the driveway and take an easy stroll to all the sites and attractions. Our hosting philosophy is to treat our guests like cherished members of our family. We truly love sharing this piece of history and welcome you with open arms. You will deal only with the owner of the home, not an impersonal management company. We strive for excellence in all that we do and the comfort of our guests is our top priority.

Pioneer Haus features a full kitchen with a functioning vintage reproduction stove with six burners and an oven. A well worn cast metal sink serves current occupants as it did many generations before. Enjoy a meal in the dining room hewn from native Stonewall limestone rock which stays naturally cool in Texas summers. Modern amenities also complement the kitchen including a microwave, toaster, an ice maker and your choice of a Keurig or a standard coffee maker. Relax in the private backyard area by soaking in the hot tub, enjoying a fire at the fire pit or grilling on the propane grill - all while watching the outdoor television.

Pioneer Haus accommodates 7 people with a large primary bedroom featuring a king size bed with quality linens and comfortable pillows, a second bedroom with a queen size bed, and a third bedroom with both a queen size bed and a single bed. The primary bathroom has a large walk-in shower and the second bathroom has a tub/shower combination. The home is decorated with period antiques mixed with a clean, modern feel. Pioneer Haus provides all the comforts of modern life such as high speed Wi-fi and streaming TVs; take a work call or stream your favorite show. The outdoor firepit and grill allow for enjoying the yard. The property is directly across the street from the Gillespie County Historical Society and the Pioneer Museum. It is also diagonally across the street from St. Mary's Catholic Church making it very convenient for anyone attending events at either of these popular destinations. The location is very walkable to all of Main Street with a myriad of restaurants, shops and event venues. No need to find parking on busy Main Street, you can park your car on our property and easily walk to most attractions. There is also ample free parking right outside the front door. We recently installed a TESLA Car Charger, so bring your TESLA or EV and charge it up while you sleep.
Please note that the Pioneer Haus shares a driveway with the Pioneer Cabin at the back of the driveway.
