We had a pleasant stay at this property. Very cute and clean. Plenty of room for the number of guest noted. The quiet patio and grill in the back made for a relaxing evening. The pictures did not do this place justice!
We stayed here over New Years because we needed some cabin time away from the bustle of Houston. When we arrived the cabin was clean and still decorated for Christmas, which made the vibe even cozier. The neighborhood is beautiful and very quiet. Everything was clean and in working order for the entirety of our trip and the owners were very courteous and quick to communicate if we had any questions. I would highly recommend this property to others, especially if you need a nice getaway to the lake.

We rented the house for a family thanksgiving weekend. We were very satisfied with everything. We are looking forward to the next family gathering and renting again.
