About this property
Metzger Sunday House | 1 Block South of Main St.
Farmers by occupation, the Metzger family built this little home in town in 1898 to use on the weekends for shopping and attending church and it has been kept in the family ever since. Located just one block south of Main Street in the Historic District, guests will delight in seeing the Metzger Sunday House along with two other original Sunday Houses all lined up in a row.
Typical of the old Sunday Houses, a small covered porch with swing and comfy chair greets you upon arrival. The main room serves double duty as a bedroom and sitting area. A queen-size bed is the focal point of the room. This magnificent bed has been handed down in the family and is topped with a colorful comforter and fluffy pillows. The antique velvet sofa and chair is comfortably arranged around the television.
The kitchen is fully equipped for your use and delightfully appointed with rich, bright colors. A table for four is in the center of this spacious kitchen. The bath has a tub and shower.
Located only a block from Main Street, this special home is easy walking to shopping and churches. In addition, photographers for major publications, such as Texas Highways, frequently use this picturesque home for magazine and newspaper articles and there is even a postcard that can be found locally of it. Furthermore, this home participated in the 150th Fredericksburg Anniversary Tour.

Loved the opportunity to stay in a charming historical home. It was perfect for my husband’s and my visit to Fredericksburg. We were able to walk everywhere!A few minor items, shower curtain liner is ripped, the dish rack has rust spots and stains and the toaster also has a lot of rust.The bed was super comfortable!
The house was dirty enough that we checked out after only one of the planned three nights. I've tried repeatedly to talk with the rental agency about this, leaving my name and number, but the haven't called me back after four days. Do NOT rent this property.

Response from VrboOwner on 18 Jun, 2026
We respectfully disagree with your statement that the home was dirty, as it was thoroughly cleaned and inspected prior to your arrival. However, we do feel it's important to clarify a few points for future guests.
When you returned the key early, you shared with us that you personally loved the property, but that your wife did not. At no point during that conversation was cleanliness raised as an issue. As a courtesy, we offered to try to rebook the unused nights despite our cancellation policy and let you know that if we were successful, we would gladly refund those nights. Unfortunately, due to the short notice, we were unable to secure another reservation, and we followed up with you via email to let you know the outcome.
While we understand that not every property is the right fit for every guest, no cleanliness concerns were reported until this review.
We wish you all the best in your future travels.
The location and size of this property was perfect for what we needed. Check in/out was easy. Only issue is that the front door was sometimes difficult to lock when leaving the property-the lock wanted to get stuck when trying to lock it. Other than that, we had a great stay.
A delightful throwback to simpler times, but with all the amenities you need. We enjoyed reading the family history of the place. Excellent location and a comfortable bed topped it off. Happy to stay there again.
