You don’t need a full week to create lifelong memories. Sometimes, all it takes is a weekend away from everyday life. For anyone looking to enjoy weekend getaways in Texas Hill Country, there’s no better place to call home than the Inn on Barons Creek. Found in the picturesque town of Fredericksburg, our hotel features well-appointed rooms, a tranquil spa, and countless amenities designed to help you relax after a day of exploration.
While you can certainly enjoy endless amounts of fun and adventure in the course of a weekend, it’s important to maximize your time. This is why having a well-thought-out itinerary is crucial. To help you plan your visit, we’ve created a sample itinerary of what you could do from Friday to Sunday.
An Example for Weekend Getaways in the Texas Hill Country
Friday
Depending on when you arrive in Fredericksburg, you may not have much time to explore. However, you have plenty of time to grab dinner at one of the incredible restaurants in town. Popular options include Altdorf Restaurant & Biergarten, Jack’s Chophouse, and Burger Burger.
Saturday
Start your morning off with a delicious breakfast. Choose from either our complimentary full breakfast bar or one of the breakfast spots in town, like Nury’s Breakfast & Lunch or Sunset Grill. If you need some extra fuel, swing by a local coffee shop. Popular options include Caliche Coffee Bar & Ranch Road Roasters and RockHause Coffee. Once you’re properly caffeinated, set off to explore some of the best attractions and things to do in Texas Hill Country.
- Visit local galleries like Insight Gallery or Enchanted Fredericksburg Ranch to discover incredible works from talented artists.
- Go hiking along one or some of the trails found inside Enchanted Rock State Natural Area.
- If on an adults-only vacation, be sure to visit some of the world-class wineries found in Fredericksburg and the surrounding Texas Hill Country.

Sunday
How much time you have for activities is dependent on what time you need to head home. We recommend checking out of the hotel early enough, so you have time to visit a few last-minute adventures, including the Sauer-Beckmann Living History Farm and horseback riding with GF Trail Rides.
