⸻ Parking • Driveway: 1 vehicle (2 for small cars) • Garage: 1 vehicle • Additional street parking available ⸻ Pool Heating & Usage Information (Please Read Carefully)
Given the pool’s size (15,000 gallons), heating requires 6–12 hours to reach a comfortable temperature and involves significant energy usage. For this reason, optional pool heating is available for an additional fee.
Pool Heating Details • Pool heating is available for $65 per night (plus applicable fees & taxes, paid pre-trip) and maintains the pool at a comfortable 82–85°F. • A 2-night minimum applies
The hot tub is integrated with the pool heating system. • Without pool heating: Complimentary hot tub heating is available upon request, for up to 2 hours per day, heated to 100–102°F.
• Extended hot tub heating: If you plan to use the hot tub more than 2 hours per day without adding pool heating, an additional $30 per night applies (plus applicable fees & taxes, paid pre-trip).
Important notes: • Pool heating must be requested at least 12 hours prior to arrival. • We recommend checking the local weather forecast before deciding to add pool heating. • When outdoor temperatures drop below 55°F, pool heating is not offered, as the pool may still feel too cool for most guests even with heating enabled. • For system protection and reliable performance, we manage the heating system remotely and are happy to set it up based on your request.
⸻ Pool & Hot Tub Operation • The pool and hot tub are controlled remotely, so there’s no need to adjust any equipment manually. • Please do not touch or adjust the pool system in the backyard, as this may disrupt normal operation or scheduled settings. • The host can adjust the system and schedule settings upon your request. Simply send us a message, and we’ll take care of it for you.
⸻
Pool Maintenance & Water Conditions • The pool is professionally cleaned and serviced WEEKLY @Wednesday by a trusted local company (Full Splash Pool Service) • The water is chemically treated, clean, and safe to use
You may notice discoloration in certain corners of the pool. These are cosmetic surface variations related to the plaster finish and do not affect water cleanliness or safety.
⸻
Weather-Related Conditions (Out of Our Control) • Pool use is not permitted during storms for safety reasons • Heavy rain may temporarily cause the pool water to appear cloudy or green, even shortly after a professional cleaning • This is a common and unavoidable condition following severe weather
When conditions are safe and scheduling allows, we will coordinate with our pool service for additional post-storm maintenance, but immediate service cannot always be guaranteed. ⸻ Our Commitment
We are committed to maintaining a clean, safe, and enjoyable pool experience and appreciate your understanding of factors — such as weather and energy requirements — that are beyond our control.
By booking, guests acknowledge that pool heating is optional, weather-dependent, and that temporary water discoloration after storms is beyond host control.

Gas Range & Oven Lovett is equipped with a gas range for your use. For your safety: ✔ Always make sure burners and the oven are completely turned off after cooking. ✔ Never leave the stove or oven unattended while in use. ✔ If you ever smell gas and no burners are on, do not use any appliances or light switches. Leave the home immediately and contact us right away. * Gas/CO Monitors There are a couple of gas/CO monitors installed throughout Lovett. For safety, please do not unplug or move them. ⸻ We recently converted the HVAC system to one central control. The thermostat (Nest control) is on the wall beside the sleeper sofa in the second floor entertainment room loft.
Due to the home’s architectural design, it can be a bit tricky to maintain the perfect temperature on both floors at the same time. When the AC is on, cool air tends to flow downstairs. When the heater is running, warm air naturally rises to the upper floor.
To help direct more air upstairs, please ensure all upstairs AC vents are fully open.
There are also a couple of portable fans in the closets or garage if you’d like additional air circulation. ⸻ Pool Safety • The pool area is not fenced, and this property may not be suitable for young children. • Children must be supervised at all times when outdoors.
For your safety, we kindly recommend turning off the string lights while using the pool and hot tub. If you prefer to keep them on, please note that we’re unable to assume responsibility for any issues that may arise. ⸻ Fireplace • The gas fireplace is decorative only and is NOT available for guest use. ⸻
Safety & Monitoring (Transparency)
Your safety matters. This property includes: • Ring video doorbell at the front entry • 2 exterior security cameras: Garage (facing driveway) Patio (facing outward) • Cameras do not monitor interior spaces and record video and sound only when motion is detected or the doorbell is pressed • Interior noise monitoring device that measures noise levels only (No audio or video recording) ⸻

House was fully equipped from the kitchen to the bathrooms. Great neighborhood and easy to checkin. We would stay here again if we come to Houston in the future.
We had a great stay. The property was easily located and accessed, and there was parking in the garage and driveway. Everything was clean and orderly. The downstairs living space was great for our family gatherings, and the kitchen had plenty of counter space for setting up meals. Upstairs, the bedrooms and bathrooms were spacious and stocked with everything we needed. Our host was quick to address all of our questions. We enjoyed the hot tub, which heated up quickly, upon request. We hope to stay here again!
Host is very quick to respond for absolutely anything that you need! We also felt that the place was very clean in the kitchen was well stocked. Nice property in a good area that felt safe.
This property was as described and then some it was very nice and clean and the host was very quick with response to any questions I asked in under minutes. I would definitely stay here again the process was easy instructions were clear and if there were any questions they were more than happy to help very quickly.
The house was very spacious, clean and comfortable! The host was definitely the most responsive I’ve ever encountered. Answering any question and addressing minor issues. The kitchen was fully stocked with all the cooking essentials. Plenty of towels were provided as well. The outdoor is a very quaint area to relax and enjoy the sounds of the pool. We were also able to use the grill, which worked quite well. The only minor issue was the upstairs master bedroom was a little hot for our comfort, but the host was very quick to order a fan for us!
The property was perfect for our family stay in Houston. We had the pool / hot tub heated and the property manager was super accessible to us throughout the entire stay whenever we had questions. Highly recommend!
Life is a beautiful journey—full of challenges, meaningful connections, and unforgettable moments.

Knowing that a guest had a comfortable and enjoyable stay brings me real happiness and fulfillment. Thank you for the opportunity to be a small part of your journey—I look forward to hosting you!

We chose the Houston Heights because it offers something rare in a big city—a true neighborhood feel with everyday convenience. Tree-lined streets, friendly neighbors, and historic homes create a calm, welcoming atmosphere, while great restaurants, coffee shops, parks, and bike trails are just minutes away. Its central location also makes getting around Houston easy, whether you’re commuting, exploring, or settling in for a longer stay. It’s a place that feels peaceful yet connected, and one we’re proud to share with our guests
