Great place to stay

We stayed here for two weeks while visiting family in the area. The home was exactly as advertised and the owners were great to work with. We were especially happy to bring our two dogs. The fenced yard was great. I highly recommend this property to anyone visiting the area.

Great house, convenient location

My family & I stayed here to welcome home my husband from a deployment. The house held everyone we needed and was a great buffer for us to find & settle in to our home while stationed here. The owners were great & very accommodating!

Great house in a quiet spot

The house was just what we needed to see the total solar eclipse. The neighborhood was nice and quiet but close enough to stores and restaurants so we didn’t feel isolated. The house was clean and just what we expected.

Great for a Family with dogs

We stayed here for 11 days with our 2 kids and 2 dogs. We loved the house and neighborhood. It was so quiet and secure, loved our evening walks. The owner was so personable and cared not only about our stay but also about us finding a place for us to live here in Texas. Will recommend this place to anyone that is looking to relax and enjoy amazing morning sunrises in a quiet beautiful home.

Amazing morning View

We enjoyed taking our coffee every morning and seeing the sunrise in the backyard. I loved laying down in the hammock in the afternoon and taking a nap. Great neighborhood for afternoon family & dog walks. Love the sunset.

Awesome stay

Very clean and homey, the location was great also. Super close to Dana Peak park where my husbands race was. Loved staying here, the only thing I have negative thoughts about is the door lock. They need to buy a new one it’s too difficult to unlock, was a pain in the butt every time we came back.
