Beautiful House
My 10 girlies and I came and stayed for my bachelorette trip and had an amazing time. The house was bigger than it looked in the photos, and there was plenty of room for everyone.

Mid Century Modern with lots of space!
We hosted our sons engagement party at this home and it was perfect! We had family and close friends and the set up was great for everyone. The backyard is so beautiful and really huge! The fire pit is such a bonus too and loved the outside lights and extra details! The house is dated but charming and the furniture and decor really works! Love the open concept living rooms which again, are perfect for family get togethers with large groups. The giant TV was also a BIG hit with lots of college football games being played that day. The beds were comfortable and everything was clean. The kitchen was well stocked too. The only thing I would change about the house would be the view from the front as it faces a convenience store dumpster. But, the backyard more than makes up for the front and it's quiet in the backyard too!

Celebrating Friendship
Walking into The Mod House was absolutely exactly what we saw on the VRBO website. The owners were fabulous with their communication with our group. We had 8 of us in the house and with 6 bedrooms and 4 baths it was perfect for lots of space for everyone. The beds and pillows were very comfortable and inviting. The large open kitchen and dining area had just about everything we needed!! The gas grill was clean and worked great. We enjoyed sitting under the covered patio with our coffee and/or other beverages. Some tried out the gorgeous pool next to the lovely wild flowers. We will have to come back when it’s cooler so we can try out the fire pit, as the rain and hail messed up our fire pit evening. The layout of the house gave all of us our own privacy. The living room was so comfortable, and we also played games on the dining room table. The owners were so easy to contact and so pleasant to work with. We look forward to renting The Mod House again… it truly feels like home and you will not want to leave!!!

About the host

Hosted by Carrie Wikander

Host profile image
Paul grew up in Berkeley, CA and attended Cal Berkeley. Carrie is a fifth-generation Fredericksburger. After attending Texas A&M to be a teacher and looking for adventure, Carrie moved to California with a suitcase and $500.00 and got lots of it, including meeting and marrying Paul. After the birth of Jonas, our only child in 1997, we decided to move to Fredericksburg and built a house on family land. Paul has been a contractor, and Carrie taught in the local school. Now with an empty nest, we are starting a new adventure with Mod Haus.

Why they chose this property

This is a unique place, with huge open spaces, a fabulous kitchen, and super large, spacious bedrooms. When we saw it, we fell in love. Because the house is so large and because it's so close to many amenities and within walking distance of town, we realized it would be the perfect place for a VRBO, with Fredericksburg being an established destination for wineries, shopping, festivals, and more. With the amazing back yard and outdoor space, we knew it needed a pool. Mod Haus sits in the middle of three acres, and has beautiful oak trees, and a kind of different feel to it than a lot of VRBO's in the area. Now that it's finished, we love the place even more.

What makes this property unique

Mod Haus is unique space in the Fredericksburg VRBO world. It is a mid-century house that is carefully decorated in mid-century modern style , with large bedrooms, and an open concept living/kitchen space that can easily accommodate larger groups. It's quite close to town, and very close to tons of amenities including a convenience store, a spa, restaurants and more right across the street, and is within walking distance to Main Street, Fredericksburg. The outdoor spaces are spacious and lovely, dotted with beautiful oak trees, as well as a pool and a large covered deck. The many period windows in the house give it an even more open feel, as well as a great view of the outside pool and yard. The huge yard is a great place for a barbecue, to play horseshoes, or to enjoy our beautiful Texas evenings outside. Inside there are two large screen televisions, a PS4 gaming system, a fully equipped kitchen, and four complete bathrooms, all decorated in the mid-century style, as well as a washer and dryer. Mod Haus would be a fabulous place for several couples to get together, or for a family reunion, a retreat, or even for single friends to get together for a weekend getaway with a group of friends. We think that once you stay here you'll want to come back again and again.

We are committed not only to our guests having an amazing time, we are also committed to keeping our place a safe space for you. We launder and bleach all linens, use antibacterial/antiallergenic pillow covers under the pillow cases, which are also bleached and washed, and we use disinfectant on all kitchen and bathroom surfaces and spray all the beds and surfaces as well as letting them air out between guests.
