About the host
Hosted by Skyview Vacations
My husband, Greg & I live in Granbury, TX and we are excited about sharing our family vacation home with you! Greg and I have several vacation rentals in destination spots and love to create amazing experiences for our guests. Our business name is "Skyview Vacations" because we absolutely love beautiful skies (especially watching the sunset). We enjoy spending time with our 4 adult sons and are excited to have a family-centric lake house for those cherished family moments. We enjoy traveling, movies, reading, boating, and pretty much doing anything on the lake.
