Dolly's: Hot-tub + Party Barn w/Games + Fire Pit!

Summary:

Welcome to Olive Street Ranch-Dolly's House! Olive Street Ranch is minutes from historic Main Street Fredericksburg's unique shops, fantastic cuisine, and many wineries. Dolly's house is nestled on two acres with beautiful shade trees and a splendid shared party barn with a ping pong table, cornhole game, giant Jenga, washers, a grill, and a fire pit.



The Space:

Dolly's house is filled with coziness and charm. You will enjoy that the living room, dining area, and kitchen are open spaces, making socializing and playing games a breeze. Curl up on the plush sofa, relax, and enjoy a movie or your favorite show on the large flatscreen TV after a fun-filled day of shopping, wine touring, or just exploring. There are plenty of fabulous restaurants to choose from in Fredericksburg. Still, if you prefer to cook during your stay, the kitchen provides stainless steel appliances such as a flat-top electric stove, microwave, and dishwasher.



This two-bedroom home will sleep up to six comfortably; the first bedroom has a king-size bed while the second has a Twin over full bunk bed. There is also a pull-out sofa sleeper in the living room. Each bedroom features an en-suite bathroom with stylish stand-up showers and vanities.



Dolly's house is the ideal place to call home during your stay! There are also two other guest houses on the property, Willie's house, which is a 3 Bedroom/2 bath and will sleep up to eight, and Waylon's house, a 2 Bedroom/2 bath sleeping up to six. Rent the entire property to accommodate a group of 20. Perfect for a family reunion, ladies' weekend away, or just a group of friends!



*Please note the outdoor party barn is a shared space with the other two houses on the property. Olive Street Ranch is the ideal spot for a family reunion, a friends' weekend getaway, a small corporate retreat, a bachelor or bachelorette party, or an intimate wedding. Contact our customer service team for details on event fees for weddings or retreats.



Guest Access:

✅ This property has special local compliance requirements which include a signed rental agreement, ID verification, and a security hold of $1000 (which is not a traditional security deposit, just a pending transaction). As an optional alternative to the security hold, you may opt in to purchase a non-refundable damage waiver provided by a third-party insurance company. The optional damage waiver is $59.99 for stays up to 10 nights, with an additional $1.5 per day for stays longer than 10 nights. Damage waiver purchases are optional.



To make this process easy for you, we use a secure and very simple, app-free platform. It is not an app, and you do not have to sign up for an account - it’s a safe and secure website. It also gives you a guest portal with all the info about the home and all of my favorite local spots.
