Well we booked a room for memorial day weekend but had to cancel, mind you this was just two days later,so I called the lady that runs the place and told her our reasons for the cancellation and she told us there was a 35 dollar cancellation fee which was not on the website by the way, so we said fine. Today we look at our statement for our credit card we used and it already been charged over 500 dollars for services that had not been rendered? i called the lady that runs the place and she tells me that she will not credit my card until the cottage had been booked,that was their policy which was supposed to be email to us but never was.I get into an argument with her and she has promised to refund my card within two days, we shall see. DO NOT EVER GIVE THIS CRAZY LADY YOUR CREDIT CARD NUMBER! DO NOT EVEN GO HERE! BE WARNED! There are made up policies which are not stated on their website. So please do not give this place any business!!!!!!!!! Sorry for any grammar mistakes I am just so mad right now

A good place to be tranquil, but look out for a little neglect. The cottages have a kitchenette, but I took a plate out to use, and it was greasy. The grounds have great places to relax, very romantic. The bed was big but sort of soft. There was a nice fireplace and plenty of wood .Even without the fire; however, the cottage was nice and warm. The place is roomy, but you have to traipse downstairs to go the bathroom.
You have to call and ask for the WiFi code: but the reception is weak, so the connection doesn't hold. There were dust bunnies here and there, but we would probably go back just for teh serenity.

If you are looking for peace and tranquility, sit beneath the two magnificent live oak trees on the bank of Baron's creek. Fish, birds, and butterflies abound without the noise of the city, truly a unique place. The breakfast "delivered to your room" was excellent, fresh berries, homemade sausage, thick sliced bacon, pecan pancakes, and quiche was over the top. A note - not all rooms have a full breakfast, make sure to check when booking your reservation. We will be back to the "Back Forty"/

Our stay at the BackForty was not good. The bed was extremely uncomfortable. It was so soft in the middle it sunk, while the head and feet area stayed up. It was like sleeping in a small trench. Sleeping on the floor would be preferable. That was the "BED" part. The "BREAKFAST" part was equally as pitiful. It consisted of a large plate of old, cold, store-bought pastry in the refrigerator. There was a small bottle of milk and OJ. We travelled to the BackForty with another couple and stayed Friday night and Saturday night. We did not request any "packages" and we all prepared to leave by the prescribed 11am checkout time on Sunday morning. Only the other couple had received info concerning checkout. We slept in, showered, loaded the car, and were ready to go into Fredericksburg at 10am to eat breakfast. The owner, Patricia, met us at the car and asked the women if they were ready for their massages. We were all flabergasted! That had NEVER been mentioned or discussed. The women would have loved a massage but they declined due to everyone had already showered, it was time to leave, and everything was already packed. Now comes the good part. When we got back home, I checked the on-line credit card account and we had been charged an extra $75 for a massage! I found a link tonight that indicates that owner/innkeeper, Patricia Collins, is wanting to sell this property (http://www.bedandbreakfast.com/InnsForSale/tx-fredericksburg-6795.html) NO DOUBT. My wife and I have stayed at numberous B&Bs around the Southwest and West and this place was absolutely the worst.
