I left a message on their answering machine inquiring about possible reservations. 3 days later I got a message stating he had been dialing the wrong number and to return the call if I was still interesting in booking with them. I figured they were booked or were unable to accommodate me, so I booked with another B/B. The day of my arrival, I received another call from the Cottages with a man yelling at me because he had been holding my room and I should have called and let them know I booked with another B/B. At the end of our conversation he said "Maybe next time....[--]". It wasn't my fault he was initially dialing the wrong number. If they really wanted my business, I would have had my call returned the same day.

As owner and innkeeper, I am responding to set the record straight. This person was never a guest at the Cottages at Limestone. She called inquiring about availability on a certain weekend. We informed her there was a cottage available. She indicated that she would call back that afternoon. We did not hear anything. We were at the market late the following day and as usual checked our message machine while we were out. There was a message indicating she would like to have the reservation. We immediately called what we understood to be her number. The message on the other answering machine only indicated the number we had called and not a person's name. We left word that we had gotten the request and needed her complete information to confirm. There was no response. After a couple of other tries we went back to the old message on our machine and decided we may have heard the number wrong. Dialing the new number we got another answering machine but this time there was a name identifying this as our potential guest. The message we left apologized for the delay due to the mixup with her phone number, stated that we had held the reservation for her and asking that she call with the required information for the confirmation. We heard nothing. This was a few days before the scheduled arrival. On the morning of the reservation we called again at about 10 am to let her know we were still expecting her that afternoon even though she had not returned our call. She indicated that she had heard the message and did not call back since she had booked elsewhere. We said that we were disappointed since we had held the cottage for her but "thanks and maybe next time." There was never any yelling.

My DH and I needed a couple days of peace & quiet. We stayed at the Cottalges at Limestone on Main. Joe & Carol were very gracious and friendly hosts! The room could NOT have been cleaner! It was immaculate, which is always a must for me. The room looked nicer than the pics on the web and you could see all the attention to detail wheverver you looked. Right after we arrived, Carol brought us a couple of cookies right out of the oven! Joe spent a few moments giving us information on the surrounding area. They are extremely helpfu. but not intrusive in the least! Both mornings we were served a delicious and large breakfast. The coffee was wonderful as well! The way these cottages are located, any one of them would feel quite private. They have done a wonderful job making this property very private and comfortable. We cannot wait to go back! This is a sonderful spot for a quiet escape! We highly recommend The Cottages at Limestone on Main!! Its the perfect place when visiting Fredericksburg, Texas!

We stayed at Cottages at Limestone on Main last weekend and it was an exquisite B&B. The breakfasts are superb, 3 courses – egg dishes made with fresh herbs from the garden, fruit, baked goods made that morning, the darling touch of a frozen pomegranate juice star in the orange juice (I'm stealing this one for my future guests!) and the perfect pot of coffee. We also enjoyed the king bed with its wonderful linens, the whirlpool tub and the overall attention to detail. The atmosphere was very relaxing and the area outside the cottage was lovely as well. We liked being able to walk into town and the attractions – but just so others know - it is a bit of a walk, they are 7 good sized blocks. We aren’t planning our next trip to Fredericksburg yet, when we do we’ll definitely look to see if one of Carol and Joe’s cottages are available.

This was the first Bed and Breakfast that we had ever stayed in and I think it spoiled us for the future. Joe and Carol were so sweet and welcoming. Carol showed us to our cottage and gave us all the important information we needed, then left us to enjoy our weekend getaway. When breakfast arrived promptly the next morning, I thought to myself, "I could get used to this!" Perfectly poached Eggs Benedict with pesto cottage potatoes and a glass of OJ, chilled by a frozen Lone star of pomegranate juice was the perfect way to start my morning. I'm recommending this cozy B&B to all my friends and family and we will definitely head back next year! The only question I will have is "Ooooh, what are they going to serve us this time?!"
