About the host

Hosted by Stephanie Hoogerwerf

Host profile image
We grew up in Clearwater, Florida and used this family cabin for respite from the Florida heat. 25 years ago, our family moved to Houston TX and quit visiting visiting Maggie because of family and job responsibilities at home. We retired 4 years ago and have spent several weeks each summer since then revisiting the area, enjoying the area and updating the cabin. We are devoted to our granddaughter and church in Texas but someday we might make the leap and relocate full-time.

Why they chose this property

The cabin is comfortable, clean, and recently updated. The location is accessible in all kinds of weather and in a friendly quiet and safe community. We love it there and think you will too.
