Bungalow from heaven

I stayed in this bungalow for 4 weeks with my 2 kids. It is so cute, clean and cozy! We love the neighborhood, would walk down to the lakes and around the Lake Morton district! Anthony was very responsive, although there were no issues! Highly recommend! This was the perfect reprieve right when we needed it

Nice property in a quiet neighborhood

This is a cute older home with well manicured lawn. The neighborhood is well established with a lot of the homes recently being updated. A perfect place for a couple to relax and enjoy the area.

Hot May Nights

We enjoyed our stay at this property, however, the A/C could not keep up with the hot May nights. During the day, I was able to monitor the temperature but when we left the house around 4PM and came back at 8PM, the house temperature would range between 77 - 85 degrees when the thermostat was set at 72. The property manager did manage to get the temperature corrected one night but it slowly climbed back up again around our 4th night. Other than that, the house was perfect. I would stay again as long as I had assurance the A/C is working properly.
