Great place for our two week stay. Golf cart was great addition and location to 2 squares worked out very well with golf cart, but going to Brownwood car is the better choice as it was only a 12 min drive. Only downside of the house was the living room sectional needs replaced as it is very uncomfortable. Overall we would give the place a 9 out of 10.

Thank you so much for your feedback! We're glad the location and golf cart were a great fit for your stay. We also wanted to let you know the living room sectional has since been replaced to improve guest comfort.
Thanks again for staying with us!
