Beautiful and stunning. Location is gorgeous, quiet and peaceful. Driveway is a bit steep but the kids loved it. Backing up it makes it more fun and easier to get out. Try the pizzeria close by, very good! Very remote, Schlitterbahn is 30mins away, along with the caves and zoofari. Also, go on a night walk on the roads, the stars, moon and sky is beautiful. Also, when we stay a storm rolled through, watching the lightning while playing scrabble over the hills was absolutely beautiful. Highly recommend. The owners are very warming, prepared and VERY responsive. We enjoyed our stay, if we could give more than 5 stars we would. Thank you to the Hodges for such a welcoming home, we loved it!!!!

About the host
Hosted by Morgan Hodge
I'm from Tomball TX and I grew up around there and the Magnolia area. For the past few years I've been interested in building a cool vacation spot to share with other people since staying in several short term rentals myself. I love how unique every one of them are and I wanted to create something fun and unique in a beautiful location for other people to enjoy as well. I love interior decor and making a space to where it creates a feeling when you walk in. I loved stocking the home with amenities and conveniences to take away some of the stress of traveling and hope to add more over time. I hope everyone genuinely enjoys the house, the company they travel with (or themselves if solo), and the beauty around the home!
Why they chose this property
I love how peaceful it is when you're there, the starry skies at night, the nature all around, and the wildlife that visits.
What makes this property unique
The shape and interior of the home. It's a smaller home, but the angles and windows make it feel very grand when you're standing inside or out on the decks. Also the cool limestone wall bordering the backside of the property; it looks pretty cool!
