The Hostess is amazing in her response time, hospitality, surprise chocolates and snack basket, etc. we have already booked our anniversary stay later this year and looking forward to New Year’s Eve again time!!! You can’t go wrong booking a stay here at Mae Maes house.

VRBO guests just don't come any better than Rene and Eric. They treated our property like it was there own; neat, clean and respectful. We hardly knew they stayed! We are beyond thrilled that they are coming back for their anniversary getaway and next year's New Year's Eve.

Peaceful stay in the country

We came here for the peace and quiet of country living and we were not disappointed. It was nice to hear the birds singing in the mornings, sit outside and relax on the deck, and go for a nice walk. The house is very nice and fit our needs. The host and hostess are very nice people. Looking for a place to get away from the noise of the city and hear the faint sound of a rooster crow at a distant farm you won’t be disappointed. Can’t say enough about how we enjoyed our stay. If we plan to come back to Texas again this will be the place we check first.

Gerry was the ultimate guest. I would love to host 1000 guests like him! He and his family treated the property with respect, followed all the house rules and left our place in immaculate condition, even after a six weeks day. Our communication was easy and they were all a joy to have stay. You would be so lucky to host Jerry in the future.
