First let me say that Tom is the most responsive, gracious host I've had the pleasure to deal with in my 15 years of renting properties with Vrbo/Homeaway. We rent for 7-10 days at a time when we travel, and we "settle in" for that time - this property is perfect for that!
Lovely newer home, excellent neighborhood, and close to Temple shopping. Loved the open concept kitchen/living room with having the kids & grandkids over constantly during the holiday week. Kitchen is nice size, well stocked, plenty of coffee/tea accoutrements, nice sized pantry for storing groceries if you cook most meals like we do. I really appreciated the little things I usually forget (ziplock bags, parchment paper, scissors, etc). Having both a breakfast room table AND 8-seat dining table was wonderful, too.
The three available bedrooms are nice size with dressers and big closets (both utilized for bulky winter travel), beds are comfortable. Bathrooms are also nice, good size, very clean.
Big backyard with a playhouse that granddaughters loved, and the adults appreciated the outdoor table and chairs.
You will have a hard time beating this one for location, price, and host. Thank you, Tom!
