One night stop over

Nice to have 2 half baths with adjoining shower/tub. Very clean and beds very comfortable. Interesting neighborhood. The picture of the home makes it look more separated from other homes but it is actually close to other homes. If we travel that way again we will definitely stay there. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

The best stocked VRBO we have rented, they had thought of everything and had plenty of it! The owner was fast to respond and super courteous, even when we asked to add a last minute pet. We ended up not bringing our dog but owner had told us she was welcome..they love pets!Super clean and comfy, we recommend them highly!

Main areas mostly clean and comfortable like beds,furniture, towels, microwave, table, chairs, etc. Seems like a quick cleaning job between guests though. A couple of left behind used items (towel behind door, toy truck under chair) and mud on patio furniture, butter and crumbs in refrigerator). Oven door wouldn't seal closed to keep oven on and working. Overall, it was good enough for us and our pets to visit family for a few days. Plenty of room. Would likely stay again.

Quaint home in the heart of Texas

We really enjoyed our stay here and would gladly do so again. The only hiccup we had was that there was sub-freezing weather that took out the water from our last night there. The host was very accommodating and apologized for the inconvenience. Other than this snafu, which again, things just happen sometimes, we had a great stay and if we're in the area again will happily look to stay here again.

Clean, quiet, comfortable

House was great for four adults flying in for a family wedding. Quiet street, comfortable beds, plenty of space for all of us and all of our stuff. Tons of fluffy towels, plenty of hot water. Can’t beat the nightly rate. Owners left us a nice note and gift card for snacks (thank you!) and were very responsive to questions. Dishwasher was broken, but doing them by hand was no big deal - we didn’t make much of a mess since we were out doing wedding activities all weekend. Great place to stay for a good night’s sleep under the starry skies in the heart of Texas.

Stayed here several times

Older home in quiet neighbor. Clean and comfortable. I didn't bring coffee this time because it had been supplied before and it wasn't any for us this time. Possible over looked by cleaning person. Suggestion to secure a cookie sheet or metal baking pan. Unable to make biscuits for breakfast.

Just what we needed

Came into town for a large, multi-day family reunion. Found this home near the venue for my family to stay as all the others were booking up the hotel rooms. It fit our needs and we were happy to be able to bring our small dog along who enjoyed the fenced in yard. Would book again.
