Great stay overall. The home was exactly as pictured! It was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed for a short stay with our family. Harrison and Talia were excellent hosts. They were very responsive and provided a thorough guide to the house that made everything easy.One small note is that it can get a bit noisy at night from nearby bars. Ear plugs are provided, but guests who are sensitive to noise may want to bring a sound machine.We would definitely recommend this property!
Home is exactly as described, beautifully decorated, clean, great location, and worked great for our family. Only complaint is that it can be loud from the nearby bars at times.

Awesome location, awesome house. Host was great with communication and very helpful. Recommendations for the city were awesome and we loved the neighborhood restaurants and bars! Definitely recommend staying here!
We had a great stay and experience. The home was as described, excellent communication, great host, very comfortable, very comfortable beds, very clean, spacious, great location. If you want to park your vehicle and walk to dinner or entertainment, this is the place for you. I loved the porch and backyard area.

Thanks for the kind words on the home! Sorry to hear about finding dirty kitchen items! That is never acceptable and we will work hard to coordinate with our cleaning team to make sure this doesn’t happen again!
My family visited Houston to see our daughter for the weekend. The home is beautiful, we loved the hammock swings, showers were fabulous.
Beds were super comfy and everything was immaculate. We loved our stay and hope to be back.
The bungalow was a great place to stay while we visited our kids in the Heights. Check in was easy and the property was great. You can tell much thought and love went into the finishes and amenities provided by the owners. We had a question about some lights and had a quick response! Thank you, we will use you again when we come to town!
My guest and I loved the home. This will be our go to Vrbo home to book for now. The home is in a great area my guest and I felt completely safe. There are many restaurants and fun activities to do that are near by as well. Overall experience was amazing and we loved Harrison the host. He responded very quickly and was very respectful.
We enjoyed a long weekend in the Heights. The weather wasn't perfect but we had a fun weekend. We stayed here because of the close proximity to White Oak Bayou trail, restaurants, and bars. If your walking or bike riding you could spend the entire trip without getting in a car. The house is spotless inside and is a welcoming place to hang out or enjoy a quiet dinner. It can be a bit noisy with all the bars so close, but it was not too bad in our opinion.
We loved Harrison and Talia’s home. It was clean and well equipped. They went above and beyond to ensure our stay was a great one. The location was perfect and so close to many great restaurants and bars. We would love to stay here again if we are in the Houston area. Thank you for sharing your home.
As someone who lived in Houston previously, I have a great love for this city. This home pays homage to H town throughout in its decor.
The home is perfectly located with many restaurants and bars in walking distance. The kitchen was perfect for preparing a few simple meals.
We loved the front porch swing!
Simply adorable and responsive host.
Will stay again !
We had a wonderful time at this beautiful and updated bungalow. The location was perfect for us (convenient for EVERYTHING we needed) and the place was spotless. We will definitely be booking this home again when we come back to Houston. And hope to take even more advantage of the location and all this home has to offer.
