Great house in a convenient area. Had 8 people staying there and there was plenty of room. Host provided snacks on our arrival and having the swim spot was a bonus.

Excellent Property Only Exceed By Exceptional Service!
I cannot say enough about our experience - both with the property and with the host. The property is wonderful - great layout, very clean and well maintained. The minute we walked in, felt completely different than all other properties I've ever rented.Location was phenomenal and in close proximity to food trucks, restaurants, and the Moody Center.Most of all, the host was phenomenal. Never had a host be so responsive, accommodating, and made it incredibly easy to check-in/check-out.This was by far my best experience renting a house and cannot recommend this place/host enough! Thank you for a wonderful stay!
