Fantastic Experience

I am the Olton FFA Advisor. I brought my chapter to Fort Worth for the State Convention. This VRBO has been the best one in all my 7 years of going to State. The community was so welcoming. The facilities were top notch. We made the decision to stay there the next two years since State will be held in Fort Worth. There was plenty of room for my large group and plenty for teenagers to do. I also loved that our hosts let my kids pop fireworks with them. So fun!!!

It was a great place for 12 of us to stay for our annual men’s golf trip. It was spacious and had plenty of room for us to hang out together. Julie was very responsive and always accessible when I had questions. Bless her and her family by staying here if you’re in the area!

Perfection!

This property was beautiful and completely perfect for our group! Our school staff came for a training retreat, and we all loved the home! One of the best things was the number of beds. The pool was the perfect size, and just what we all needed during this hot summer! The owner was quick to respond, and such a kind person. Wonderful experience overall.

Great place for big family with lots of kids

I heartily agree with what most reviews have already said, this property is great with so many activities for all ages. My elderly parents and my 10 year old all had a great time. The house and property are lovely and very well kept. One thing I wish I had known though, is that the "deer suite" is pretty funky. The bunk bedroom and the queen bedroom are connected by a bathroom, but more importantly the queen room actually has no door out to the hallway, so the only way out is through the bathroom (which might be in use) or through a closet that goes into the adjoining bedroom. The door does not lock. This is totally fine but would have been nice to know about beforehand for planning purposes as it does limit privacy if you have young kids who don't understand the need to knock and wait to be let in.

Family Reunion

We had a wonderful family time while staying at this rental. Communication was great on any problems that came up. The place was clean and there was a fully stocked kitchen. There was plenty of space for everyone and multiple outside tables for dining outside by the pool. It was a great place for teenagers to have fun and be safe! It was a real blessing to have this time with everyone together!

About the host

Hello!! My husband, Regi and I bought this beautiful property in 2016 after the Lord directed us to use if for a camp for kids with cancer. We would love to rent the property out for others to enjoy! This will also be a huge blessing to allow our non profit to do more.
