We were in town for the Lone Star Motorcycle Rally. We LOVED the property! It was clean, cozy, elegant decor, comfortable beds & bedding, immaculate furnishings, adequate seating, fully stocked kitchen, garage to pull our bikes inside, nice neighborhood. The only advice I would suggest is fixing up the back patio with more comfortable seating, some string lighting and a firepit to make the outdoor space inviting and relaxing. Thanks to the owners for timely responses and professional interactions, We will be back every year!!!

Great time

There was plenty room for the 12 of us plus one dog. We felt right at home. The owner called ahead of time to let us know of a couple hiccups before we arrived. Nothing which affected our stay. We cooked several meals at the house, the gas grill was an added bonus. I would definitely stay here again.
