The Janis Bungalow w/Hot tub
Welcome to Janis, Gladheart’s newest private guest home. Spacious and exquisite, Janis is perfect for two but can accommodate up to four people with ease. Perched on a quiet lot within Gladheart’s peaceful 13 acres, guests of Janis will enjoy a hot tub, firepit, and a stroll through the wilderness with glimpses of deer, jackrabbits, songbirds, and three friendly donkeys. Janis is also located just minutes away from the excitement of downtown Fredericksburg.
The living space of Janis is completely open and airy, with a vaulted ceiling and tons of natural sunlight streaming in. A velvety soft sofa is piled high with jewel-toned pillows and pulls out to reveal a full-size bed. The sofa also faces a flat screen Roku TV— perfect for a romantic movie night or a lazy night in with your favorite TV show. Contemporary bookshelves separate the living area from the bedroom.
The L-shaped kitchen is completely open to the living area— perfect for conversation and socializing. Elegant gray cabinets support glossy granite countertops. Premier stainless steel appliances include a full-size refrigerator, electric range with vent hood, microwave, and dishwasher. The spacious island has gorgeous butcher block counters and bar stool seating for two and is illuminated by two exquisite pendant lights. A vibrant teal backsplash and open shelves add a perfect pop of color and style.
The bed sits nearby and is separated from the living area by unique open bookshelves. The bed is a luxurious king-size memory foam— perfect for relaxing and recharging in the evenings. In the spa-inspired bathroom, a freestanding soaking tub and a separate glass-enclosed step-in shower are both indulgent spots to wash the day away.
Outside, the spacious gravel patio is surrounded by a privacy fence and includes two Adirondack chairs and a wine barrel fire pit. Grab a blanket and a bottle of locally sourced wine and cuddle by the fire in the evenings while a pastel sunset lights up the sky above you. For even deeper relaxation, immerse yourself in the swirling hot tub underneath a sky full of stars.
The Gladheart compound includes a super-fun clubhouse/game room with a pool table, ping pong table, card tables, darts, and a jukebox. Outside you’ll also have access to picnic tables, shuffleboard, and horseshoes. When you’re ready for an afternoon antiquing adventure or a night on the town at a local watering hole, the fun of Fredericksburg is a quick ten-minute drive away.
Please note: Janis and the ZZ Top game room on the property do share a wall
Things to Note:
-There are outdoor cats on the property that you may encounter during your stay.
-In Texas, there are periods of time without significant rainfall causing the county of Gillespie to place a ban on burning. Please check the current burn ban status, before using the fire pit at a Fredericksburg area vacation rental.
- Utilize the designated parking spaces at your vacation rental.
-Place all trash in designated containers.
- Please be aware that the Texas Hill Country can experience high heat and drought during the summer, which can attract pests to the exterior lights at night. Our properties receive extermination, but guests may encounter pests such as cockroaches, mosquitoes, flies, Rolly Pollies (pill bugs), June bugs, small ants, and spiders, as well as occasional scorpions and small rodents. These are normal critters that come regardless of cleanliness or availability of food.

The hot tub was a great bonus! My only suggestion would be for being a travel destination for wineries, to have better wine glasses, there were only two random glasses. Or, guests- just make sure to bring some!
Thanks for a great stay!
Wonderful stay!

Things to note:
1) The bathroom wall of this Bnb is shared by a ‘game room’ on the other side. Noise filters through easily.
— The game room is super cool, so I don’t blame folks for wanting to hang out there!
2) The Bnb is on a ranch with little light pollution; however, there are at least 3 other bungalows very near to this house.
I’d say it’s a place to yourself, but it’s not private, as the neighbors in the other Bnbs can be heard drinking and talking.
Overall,
It was an excellent stay. We had a slight maintenance issue, but it was quickly resolved the same night we got in without impeding on the experience.
I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a fun weekend in Fredericksburg.
If you are looking for seclusion, this is NOT the place for you.
Hope this helps!

There were basic spices and olive oil , ground coffee & creamer provided. The stacked washer & dryer were nice. FYI there was no washing detergent provided but there were dryer sheets. There were tiny hotel sized shampoo, conditioner, bar soap & body wash - one of each. Paper towels & toilet paper were provided but no tissues.
