About the host

Hosted by Jessica Marroquin

Host profile image
30 year old young lady who has 2 children and a former cougar graduate! I decided to fulfill my parental duties and stay with my 2 beautiful children. We bought this home with intentions of keeping it so it custom designed to our liking! My husband actually did the entire renovation - top to bottom - and I am now the manager of the property. I'm very happy to be able to enjoy this beauty at my own leisure and also share it with travelers like you! We have a perfect family dynamic to help share our rentals all throughout Houston .

Why they chose this property

Lovely home that was bought for the entire family. We wanted this to be a vacation-style home for all walks of life; starting with my business people: high-speed internet, all rooms have an accessible outlet, an extra chair, and or a desk to set up!
For my leisure-travelers the pool is definitely the highlight feature of this home; We plastered the Pool, keeping the deepest end of the pool 8ft but shortening the smaller end to about 2ft (toddler-friendly height).

And we can’t forget the Backyard. Plenty of outdoor space perfect for entertaining including a small pit for a good wood-fire for cold nights, a charcoal grill for some nice steaks next to your private pool, and a beautiful covered seating area with patio furniture.
There is seating in the deep end and also seating in the entrance of the pool so you don't have to completely submerge. Because of how deep the pool is a heated pool is not feasible so we integrated a Jacuzzi since November of 2021!

The house sits in a very convenient location not in the heart of downtown (away from all the chaos) but close enough to have convenient travel times. ETA's in Houston are all over the place average travel time will be anywhere from 15 - 30 minutes depending on where your traveling to and if it is prime time traffic!

Parents of PETS: In the event you need to bring your pet please discuss me via the portal to make the correct accommodations.


Nonetheless it was a fun project that turned out spectacular! Every finish was well thought of even the floors are porcelain anti slip floors so you shouldn't have any trouble coming in and out of the house from the pool! Please enjoy!

What makes this property unique

Easy parking and extra parking 2 in the garage, 2 in the driveway + FIRST COME FIRST SERVE parking directly adjacent to the home. 6 car parking maximum. You are right off of the biggest looping freeway, better known as, the Sam Houston Tollway, that will take you to all major Houston attractions! Very tight community and friendly neighbor (almost no one has changed in over 25 years) and as mentioned before there are many accommodations for small children. The best part of all your own private pool and jacuzzi.
