Absolutely Beautiful Home

The beautiful home was perfect for our large family while we were in the area for our son’s wedding. The home came equipped with everything we needed. The location was quiet and perfect. If we are in the area again we will rebook

Awesome Pool.

The home was clean and had everything we needed for our 4 day stay. The pool got the most used and enjoyed by us all. Communication with owner was quick and easy and always responded to answer any questions we had. We will definitely return to this property next time we visit Waxahachie. Thank you for sharing your home with us. 🙂

Comfortable Family Reunion

The hosts were friendly and helpful providing superior customer service There were comfortable beds for adults, bunks for kids to young adults and1 small crib and high chair. Although the house slept 14, there was only seating for 8 in the living room and dinning room. The outdoor grille was great. The home was very well equipped for cooking and grilling. Our only advise would be to add dark window covering to supplement faux wood blinds, add a long couch and remove the rug in the living room and provide a universal garage door opener. We had a great reunion playing in the pool and having good meals together.

Great Place to stay

The property was the perfect place for us to stay while we were in town for a concert and also racing in the area. Upon arrival we noticed the back door was having issues locking and we reached out to the property owners and they responded immediately at all hours of the night. A few of the bunk beds are missing slats but the beds are comfortable. The next door neighbors dog barked early in the morning but that has nothing to do with the home itself. We also asked for a late check out and they were accommodating. Great place to stay will stay here again in the future. Before we stayed it seemed like there were a lot of extra steps and paper work from the past VRBO we have stayed in but the house ended up being nice. Pool and Hot Tub weren't heated but they were very clean and kept up with.
