Excellent location and super hopeful host. If you want to experience a low key authentic stay, this 1920’s era home is for you. The evenings were lovely on the porch and quiet. The kitchen is fully stocked and large for a cottage. It’s a unique place to experience in a wonderfully diverse neighborhood. I would stay here again.
Excellent stay. Easy check in, comfortable beds, great location with restaurants in walkable distance. This older house has lots of charm and it’s fully updated for modern comfort. Neat neighborhood for daily walks. Plenty of parking, lots of thoughtful extras. Highly recommended!!
This is an amazing home with character in a nice neighborhood. Ample space with two bedrooms, living room, dining room, and large kitchen. The kitchen is well-stocked with high-quality cookware (not the cheap stuff you find in some rentals) which was important to us, as we prepared many of our meals. The front porch was sublime for morning coffee and tea. Parking was easy with an area next to the house. Communication with the host was excellent and the checkout was easy. An outstanding stay, glad we found it, hope to come again!
The house is charming and has everything you need as described on the listing. The location was very convenient for us. Since the house is handicap accessible the shower head is very low. It’s not super convenient but it is detachable therefore, if you are a tall person you would have to hold it over your head to rinse off. It’s very minor and fixable. The host was responsive and overall if we were in the area again we would definitely chose to stay here.
Spacious, comfortable, clean, good location and great parking spaces. Host provides accurate description of the home. Hunter was very quick to respond and a great host.
Great long weekend visiting our son who lives closer to west Dallas, but great daily walk along and thru the parks, great restaurants around, very easy and comfortable stay.
This house is situated in a quiet neighborhood, walking distance to the Buffalo bayou and for us our son's apartment so it works perfectly Second visit for us, hope to return.
Really feels like you stepped back in history. We enjoyed our 3 night stay. This home is only blocks away from our daughter's house, so it was easy to walk back and forth during our visit. Don't miss Laredo Tacos for breakfast - get there early to avoid the line. Would definitely stay here again.
We enjoyed our 2 night stay. It was perfect for our needs and in a really nice neighborhood close to downtown. Lots of restaurant option in walking distance.
I hope we can stay here again when we return in October.
We were grateful to find this home available during the dates that we needed it, while getting major repairs done on our house. The host kindly extended our rental for a few days. The backyard is made of gravel and is fenced, so that really helped as far as our two dogs. Very happy to have found this rental in our neighborhood. Thanks, Hunter!
This place has so much charm and proximity to delicious food. I was worried that it wouldn't be as nice as the pictures but honestly, it was nicer and even seemed more spacious. Wished I could stay longer.
Cottage had all we needed. Sponsors were very responsive. Great location for access to museums, parks, high end restaurants. Wish we had taken advantage of walking distance restaurants on Washington.

Why they chose this property
It's a rare gem in a historic neighborhood in the shadow of downtown Houston. While the inside reflects the history of the house with it's exposed shiplap and antique furniture, it's dwarfed by the 100-200 year old trees that surround it. Despite it's setting on a quiet residential street it is just blocks away from dozens of fine restaurants and bars and less than 3 miles from downtown.
