Our stay with you could not have been more charming! We felt like we were in a 5 star hotel in the nostalgia of yesteryear! Thank you for sharing your piece of heaven with visitors to Fredericksburg. We look forward to seeing you again. You thought of everything!

The cleanest little B&B in Fredericksburg! That's what guests often say of this precious private cottage located in the beautiful historic district, only three blocks from the heart of Main Street shopping. The home next door, where your hosts (Pat and Marlene) live, was constructed by Hans Basse in 1906. This area of North Adams Street was once known as "Millionaire Street” and was the area of town where prominent businessmen lived, including the banker, jeweler, grocer, automobile dealer, relatives of WWII Fleet Admiral Chester Nimitz and former President Lyndon B. Johnson.
Lillie Marlene was built in 1941. The name was chosen as a reflection of your hostess Marlene’s German heritage. The song, popular during World War I and World War II, was also the inspiration for her first name—Lillie was already taken by her maternal grandmother. The sheet music for the song can be found on the antique pump organ in the living room. The lamplight at the curb was a "must” for a property named Lillie Marlene. Lillie Marlene is truly an endeavor of the heart filled with warm precious memories of family, good times, and in the German and Czech tradition, good food!
