Better Than Expected!

The Lodge at Country Cottages Inn was an amazing venue for our wedding! Amy and Jeff were so helpful with the whole process. Amy helped us plan out the alcohol contract and get the right amount, even when our guest count was much lower than originally anticipated. She also was very responsive to our questions after we did our wedding walkthrough. Jeff was great helping us during the setup by preparing the chapel for our music before our harpist arrived. The venue was beautiful and the cabins provided a perfect spot for our out-of-town guests to stay. Everyone at the cabins hung out the night before the wedding, which provided a wonderful opportunity for people to meet! I would highly recommend this venue to any couple, especially with family from out of town.

Bridesmaid Review!

As both a bridesmaid and sister-in-law, I truly couldn’t have asked for a more perfect venue. From the moment we arrived, everything felt so beautiful and thoughtfully put together. The setting itself was stunning, but what really made it special were the cottages included—they made the whole experience feel intimate, relaxed, and so much more memorable for everyone involved.

Most importantly, seeing how happy my sister-in-law was throughout the entire day meant everything.

Dream wedding!

When my husband and I started planning our wedding, we were super stressed about finding a place that wouldn't break the bank but still felt like our dream spot. Fredericksburg was a must for us, and The Lodge at Country Inn Cottages totally delivered!

First off, the location is gorgeous. It's got that Texas Hill Country charm, which was exactly what we wanted. What really sold us was how flexible they were with the budget. We were able to customize a package that fit our needs without sacrificing the things that were important to us.

Honestly, it felt like they genuinely cared about making our day special, not just about making a sale. The staff was amazing, and the whole day went off without a hitch. If you're looking for a beautiful wedding venue in Fredericksburg, definitely check out The Lodge!

Our dream venue!

The Lodge was a dream venue! Jeff and Amy were both amazing to work with and answered our (many) questions, always timely and with wonderful attitudes. Jeff (owner) even personally ran to Walmart during our reception to buy a couple bottles of mosquito spray after recent rains. Our wedding day was absolutely perfect, we used the chapel for our ceremony, and the venue both indoor and outdoor for our reception. We got so many compliments from our guests about how nice it was to be able to stay on property in the cabins. We have absolutely zero complaints and wouldn’t change a thing about our day. This is the place to be!

Wise Wedding!

We truly couldn't have asked for a more perfect place to celebrate our wedding! From the very beginning, communication with Jeff and Amy was absolutely wonderful - they were responsive, kind, and made everything feel seamless. The property itself is stunning. We fell in love with the open-air glass door chapel the moment we saw it - such a magical and peaceful setting to say "I do." The reception lodge was equally beautiful and gave us the perfect space to celebrate with all of our loved ones. Our family adored the on-site cabins — they were cozy, convenient, and such a fun part of the weekend experience. Everyone was raving about them!
If we could do it all over again, we absolutely would. We're so grateful for this unforgettable venue and the memories we'll cherish forever.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
