Meet the Hill Country Oasis Hosts
Welcome to Hill Country Oasis, your private retreat in beautiful Fredericksburg. We’re Shawn and Lauren Sparks, and we’re thrilled to share a little about who we are and what inspired this peaceful getaway.
We live in the suburbs of Houston with our four boys, whose ages span from toddler to adult, along with our tiny but spirited Yorkie, Buttercup. Life at home is always moving, but creating meaningful, memorable guest experiences is something we truly love. For over a decade, hospitality has been at the heart of what we do, and Hill Country Oasis has become a special extension of that passion.
In Texas, we own and operate two elegant wedding venues, Sandlewood Manor and Chateau Nouvelle. There, we’ve had the honor of serving countless couples on one of the most important days of their lives. Those years of thoughtful service, attention to detail, and heartfelt connection have shaped how we approach every guest who stays with us. We bring that same dedication to Hill Country Oasis, striving to make each visit relaxing, seamless, and unforgettable.
We are also deeply committed to Love for a Lifetime, our nonprofit marriage ministry devoted to nurturing strong, faith-centered relationships. Through events like Date Nights and intimate dinners, we’ve supported couples as they strengthen their marriages. That mission influences everything we do, including the environment we’ve created at Hill Country Oasis. Our hope is that this home offers a place to reconnect, unwind, and enjoy meaningful time with the people who matter most.
Our love for Fredericksburg began during a Hill Country getaway, where the charm of Main Street, the warmth of the community, and the peaceful beauty of the landscape instantly captured our hearts. When the opportunity came to create a welcoming retreat here, we knew Hill Country Oasis was the perfect place to bring our vision to life.
Whether you are planning a family vacation, a couples escape, a wine country adventure, or a quiet weekend to recharge, Hill Country Oasis is designed to deliver a truly exceptional stay. With space for ten guests, the backyard is your private oasis, complete with a rare pool in Fredericksburg where you can swim, lounge, and soak in the beauty of the Texas Hill Country.
We look forward to welcoming you and making your time in the Hill Country absolutely wonderful.

Through Date Nights, intimate events, and engaging conversations, they’ve created a welcoming environment where couples can grow, reconnect, and thrive together. Their passion for marriage deeply influences every part of their work, shaping meaningful experiences in both their ministry and their hospitality ventures.
