We stayed 2 nights for our 32nd Anniversary. This cottage is perfect for a couple. Walking distance to town, yet it feels secluded. We purchased a bag of deer corn and put it out twice a day. Had lots of pretty deer. If we come back by ourselves we will book again!!

Wilhelm Victor Keidel, the first doctor and county judge in Gillespie County, founder of the town of Pedernales, and son of Dr. Georg Keidel, was born in Hildesheim, Hanover, in March 1825. He attended Georg Augusts Universität in Göttingen from 1841 to 1845 and sailed from Bremen on the brig Margarethe on September 1, 1845. He arrived in Galveston on December 1 of that year and enlisted in the United States Army for six months during the Mexican War, before moving to Fredericksburg. Keidel was Gillespie County's first doctor, presumably employed by the Adelsverein, and the first county judge, elected in 1848. He left Fredericksburg to found a settlement on the Pedernales River and offered to treat without charge any who accompanied him there. By 1850 the settlement, named Pedernales, had forty-four residents of German descent. Keidel continued as the unofficial leader of the community. On September 11, 1854, he hosted a meeting to plan Live Oak School, of which he became a trustee; he also founded the Society for Good Fellowship and Promotion of General Information, a political and cultural club. In 1854 he was elected vice president of a statewide organization of German societies at a meeting in San Antonio. He planted hackberry trees along local roads to beautify the community and, as a doctor, treated both Whites and Indians; the latter paid by hanging fresh venison or turkeys in nearby trees. Keidel's first wife, Albertina (Kramer), died on July 1, 1852, at the birth of their son Albert. Keidel married his second wife, Caroline Kott, in 1856; nine years later, due to her poor health, the family moved back to Fredericksburg, but she died in August 1865 of a fever after the birth of their son Herman. Keidel refused to take sides in the Civil War and treated both Unionists and Confederates. He died of typhus pneumonia on January 9, 1870.

1920s picture of ‘Balanced Rock’ that sat forever near Fredericksburg on Bear Mtn. “Balanced Rock was something to see - a 50 ton red granite boulder 10’ high & 12’ in diameter resting precariously on three points. Two of the points were pinnacles only a few inches high and no bigger around than a man's wrist.
Then on April 19, 1986, the geological oddity was gone! Gillespie County deputies dispatched to the scene found that, sure enough, the boulder had tumbled from its perch. It rolled down a slope & came to rest against another large rock. Rumors were rampant. ‘We don't believe it was an accident,’ a deputy told reporters shortly after arriving at the scene. ‘From the looks of it, it was the works of vandals.’ Law enforcement officials launched an investigation. Evidence showed that a stick of dynamite toppled Balanced Rock. Citizens of Fredericksburg offered a reward, but the crime was never solved.”
