The home was so lovely and sweet. We could tell the owners had paid special attention to the comfort of the bedding in particular. It was clean, prettily decorated, and the owners were amazing communicators.

The house is adorable, beautifully furnished and spotless. We had everything we needed for our trip to McKinney. It’s a very short walk to town, which we did at least a couple of times a day. We would definitely stay here again!!

This amazing lil cottage is just a couple of blocks from downtown McKinney, a spot with amazing restaurants and cute lil shops. Had to do some work in Princeton for a few days and this house was the PERFECT spot to relax and take it easy after a long day. The hosts were super helpful providing us with local guides and even some samples of the town's offerings!

The host had great communication. The location was in walking distance of several restaurants and shops. And the house had plenty of the amenities so we didn’t have to go to the store and buy extra stuff. And the location seemed to be in a safe neighborhood.

About the host

Hosted by Kevin H Mansell

Host profile image
We live in a house built in 1913 that we have refurbished. We opened our home to the public in 2022 for the Christmas Holiday Tour and thoroughly enjoyed the experience, so we wanted to do that again with this cottage.

Why they chose this property

We chose this neighborhood because we also live close-by and wanted to share with everyone all of what attracted us to the downtown area. There are tons of shops, restaurants, pubs, festivals, and nightlife to enjoy.

What makes this property unique

This property is extremely convenient to the downtown square, where there are festivals year-round. It is located 3 blocks due north of the square and is very walkable. The property also is on a quiet street.
