We had a wonderful experience staying there! We didn’t get in until very late after a baseball game and they still greeted us when we got there, very sweet and helpful couple. The yard was enclosed with was perfect for the kids to run around and play. We had a great time and felt very safe and welcomed staying there.

Great location.

Nice location. Great communication. We hosted a watch party, we got a bit warm with 15 people in the main room but survived. Courtyard is a nice outdoor space and the green space beyond the fence makes for a nice atmosphere. Highly recommend and will use again if the need arises.

Excellent stay with fantastic hosts

My teenage boots and I came in for a concert and our stay couldn’t have been better. We were greeted by our wonderful host and given a lay of the land. We had a slight issue with the electric because of a storm threatening to come and hosts made sure we had ample lighting in the event the power went completely out. When we come back to Houston, I will definitely make sure to book here again.

About the host

Hosted by Rick Haley

Host profile image

Why they chose this property

Established neighborhood in a former 27-hole golf course community.

What makes this property unique

The property sits above Vogel Creek, with private access to the creek and trails. It has multiple gardens and fountains, along with an outdoor swing, bar area, firepit, pergola, and large patio with two 10x20 covered patio areas. Unfortunately, the unit has had cigarettes smoked in it which is not allowed, so there is a slight smoke smell, which most guests do seem to mind. However, if you are hypersensitive to cigarette smoke, you might want to consider another property.
