Wonderful winter getaway
The property was perfect for a 3-week break from Minnesota winter weather. Open, spacious, updated decor that was clean and adequately stocked with essential supplies, including condiments, a few coffee k-pods and bottled water. Temperatures were in the 70-80's but dropped into 40-50's at night so the pool temperature never really got warm enough to enjoy but still comfortable sitting poolside. Hot tub was easy to access and quite relaxing so that made up for not being able to use the pool. Jessica was a marvelous hostess who provided information needed prior to arrival and promptly responded to all our questions before and during our stay. Neighborhood was generally quiet but lots of on-street parking, especially in the evenings (I think maybe some neighbors were gathering for Ramadan). Overall, it was a great vacation spot with access to lots of activities in the area and many good dining spots.

Great property, top notch !!!
We were in Houston for Valentine’s Day weekend. Enjoyed hot tub very relaxing, to cold for pool. I noticed it was very clean though. Good communication with Jessica, quick responses to our very few questions. I’m sure we will be back to this property.

Welcoming getaway
House was clean and pool/outdoor area was immaculate. Host made the experience feel seamless and was quick to respond/ provide assistance. She went above and beyond to accommodate our needs and made us feel welcomed. Just to note, the kitchen is lacking some basic things such as pots and a dishwasher. The freeway is quite loud for those in the back bedrooms. Other than that it was a great experience for myself, my partner and my family.

Our host was great. Our 10 day stay went by fast and we managed to get good use out of the pool as the weather cooperated. Definitely some traffic noise but didn’t interfere with anybody’s sleep. House was clean and all amenities were as advertised.

Comfortable & Relaxing
Aside from the weather, it was a wonderful stay. Disappointed that we weren’t able to utilize the pool and jacuzzi as a result of the nonstop rain and cool temperatures, but the house was nice and cozy. We were delighted that cards and games were provided and the beds were nice and comfortable. The house is very spacious.
Our host, Jessica is the best! Any question, at any time she responded if not immediately, in a matter of minutes! Always, always pleasant and accommodating. We definitely recommend this property! You will not be disappointed!!

Fantastic Stay
Jessica was an absolute gracious host. The team had a fantastic stay. Just wish we had a little more garbage can space. I felt terrible as we checked out cause we had to leave some bags next to the can.
Thanks for checking in on us and the tournament. We will definitely be back next year if she’ll have us back!

She went above and beyond to make this day special for my daughter. She answered our call when we couldn’t work the tv. The house was clean the pool and hot tub both worked.
