Frankie was a great host. Very accommodating. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at her Happy Place! Loved being able to fish in the back yard. Location was even better being 10 minutes from Three Sisters Springs, restaurants, shopping, etc. Highly recommended!

Frankie’s hospitality and responsiveness are 5-star! The home was clean, attractive and “beachy”. The kitchen had everything you could need for most meal prep. The house rules were easy to abide. The outdoor space was beautiful and well-kept.

The house was great. Very clean and it had everything. Beds were comfortable. On our first day of the trip, our boat trailer was rear ended with significant damage. Frankie and her husband did everything they could to help us out including driving over tools so I could get the trailer in good enough condition to get back home with the boat. They definitely went above and beyond. Great house. Great hosts.
