Fantastic vacation house, with great swimming pool, game room, spacious rooms. Great kitchen, well equipped. In the location. We had a great time and great communication with the owners. One point to take into consideration, there is an extra charge for heating the swimming pool (100-150 a day)

Wonderful Home!Perfect home for groups or families! If you have kids, this is the jackpot. The huge projector screen, pool table, and swimming pool kept everyone busy and happy the entire time.The location is also fantastic. The Heights is a really great area, and it's super convenient to get to pretty much anything you’d want to do around Houston. It genuinely felt like a resort but with all the comforts of home. We were also able to bring our pup, which really makes it really feel like home! Super grateful for the stay! I highly recommend it!

Pool heaven

The kids so enjoyed the space and pool. The beds were all so comfortable and the rooms were dark for sleeping so that was great.

TIME MACHINE NEEDED. This house would be a 5 star if i could travel back in time and stay at the house when it was first renovated and everything was clean, painted, sauna electronics worked, foozball and pool table a bump away from falling apart, sheets and pillows in deplorable state etc. The host was very responsive and tried to make things right. Again if she had access to a time machine perhaps this would be a 5 star house. In its current state i cannot give it more than 2.

Response from VrboOwner on 22 Jan 2026
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. Our bungalow is over 70 years old and located close to the historic Heights, and many guests choose it specifically for its character and charm rather than a “brand-new” experience. While a time machine might be fun 😄, our goal is simply to keep improving a historic home so guests can enjoy its unique personality along with modern comfort.
