This was a great location and fantastic home in a safe and attractive neighborhood. We visited Texas for a wedding.This house completely set the tone. With the beautiful setting of the private pool to the hotel style appointed bedrooms, the house was exactly what we were looking for. It was Impeccably clean and well kept. Time spent was perfect. If we return to Dallas we wouldn't consider staying anywhere else.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 1/1

What a wonderful place. What a wonderful time. Made some wonderful memories!! This place is fabulous any way you look at it!! With it's multi-workable kitchen, pool extravaganza, hints of Texas everywhere, laundry facilities, and comfortable sleeping accommodationsl, outdoor eating/game table, out door grill, and lovely QUITE area- on a BEAUTIFUL star gazing hill to far away see the lights of the McKinney airport! This has been BY FAR one of the most excellent vacations we have ever had. I would highly recommend this place if ever you need a place in Dallas. Thank you, Texas Star!!!Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 1/1

A few years ago, my buddies and I started an annual golf trip to escape from the winter depths of Minnesota. Each year, we attempt to pick a different city that is conducive to great golfing in terms of weather, courses, and price. This year we chose Dallas and stayed at this house which was fantastic. It's our tradition to find a vacation-like home for creating an enjoyable and upscale atmosphere since we do this only once a year. This house provided just that. Not only did the home provide all the amenities listed, but the golfing in the area is unsurpassed.There is always a level of anxiety regarding your expectations and I would have to say that the home met and exceeded them.Did you find this review helpful?

This home was a fantastic place to stay. It couldn't have been more perfect! It is located in the beautiful country outside a city full of antiquing As a runner, it was fantastic having so much property literally right outside the door! Bike riding is great as well, allowing us to enjoy the countryside. The inside of the home was perfect for us. It was beautifully decorated, well appointed and immaculate. The patios offered unbelievably beautiful views... seriously, photos don't fully capture the great skies. In fact, we found that we preferred getting take-out food and dining on the patio versus sitting in restaurants nearby. We would highly recommend this property and look forward to staying here again in the future.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 1/2

Great house, the pictures are entirely accurate. Plenty of room and an awesome view of the sunrise and sunsets.... Property was super clean and had everything we needed and then some. I highly recommend this owner and property. Christopher, thanks for the pleasant experience, you made it easy for an out-of-state renter! This was the first time I used this site/service, will definitely use again.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 1/2

Great home in a wonderful location and the off-street parking is a real bonus. The common areas of the house are open & comfortable and the bedrooms easily accommodated our party of seven. The home is clean, well-equipped and the owner is very welcoming. It's a quick 2 minute drive down to the shops and restaurants. Would definitely recommend to others!Did you find this review helpful?

The house is interesting and comfortable. Dramatic views of sunrise & sunset in both directions. Beds comfortable; good showers; full kitchen, with a few supplies (spices, olive oil, etc.) Functioning washer/dryer/dishwasher. Hosts are amazing--interesting people in their own right, who really extended themselves for us. Be prepared for only 3 miles to get groceries or find restaurants. (We cooked at the house and ate in.) Best chairs for reading are on the veranda. We would stay there again if our travels take us back to this part of the country Our family loved this local and home.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 1/1

Every year a group of guys flies in for the OU/TX football game. Every year we went this house. It is perfect for a decent size group and the outside allows us to grill, and have a wonderful time. The property manager has always treated us great, and we wouldn't want to be anywhere else. Next year will be our third year in a row, and I highly recommend this house. Spacious, well stocked, and easy to get to, without having to worry about anyone complaining. 1st class.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 1/2

We had a wedding in McKinney so this was the perfect place for our family. It was very convenient to the historic downtown area where there is a lot of antique shopping and restaurants. My kids really enjoyed the pool; they were given extra inflatables when we arrived. The property was clean and well-maintained and everything we needed was there - dishes/cookware/silverware. If we ever have another need to be in McKinney, we would definitely stay again.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, families with young children.

My friends and I have stayed at this home one weekend of each winter for the past few years. We all grew up together at a summer christian camp nearby and look forward to returning each year to visit. After finding this home, we can't imagine staying anywhere else. The house is beautiful, clean and inviting. The best hot tubbing in the winter. The communication provided by the owners is excellent, questions are answered within a few hours hours.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 2/2
