If you have a lot of people in your group, this house will be perfect. It's very large with many spaces to get away, or just relax. It is an older property, with a lot of charm and cultural influence. We loved it.

This was vacation for my extended family. The property was an excellent choice for this with swimming pool, game room, and gym. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The location was near everything we wanted to do. We had a great time. I would rent this property again. Historic atmosphere added to our trip.

We rented this property for a family gathering over Easter weekend. There was plenty of space, and having a game room and pool was awesome. Plenty of bedrooms and beds. The property manager was very communicative throughout.

Best place to gather the family

The large family area and fabulous kitchen makes gathering the family simple and easy. We cooked meals together with cleanup super easy with the 2 dishwashers and 2 refrigerators. The extras of pool table and air hockey kept everyone entertained. We will definitely stay again!

Wonderful escape

The house itself is very comfortable— several seating areas with plush sofas and nice bedrooms. The property feels like a private oasis. Thick gardens, chirping birds, and owls create a beautiful outdoor space where kids and adults can enjoy a relaxing paradise. The house is a marvel of old Texas architecture, and it is decorated thoughtfully.

Great Place!

This place is an awesome place to stay for your vacation! The location is about 15 minutes from the airport, Six Flags, and Downtown/Riverwalk. The house is spacious with plently of rooms to give everyone their own space. The pool is one of the best I have seen at any property. AC and WiFi all worked well and the game room was awesome for the kids. I would highly recommend this place and stay here again!
