Perfect location for me. Well equipped and great appliances. I liked the full supply of spices and essentials in kitchen. Only suggestion is to leave more towels in bathroom…I would definitely stay here again!

Lovely well-equipped home; quiet neighborhood

My husband and I stayed in this lovely home for a month. During what was a very stressful time, it was a quiet very comfortable oasis. Beds and furniture are very comfortable and the kitchen is the best equipped of the many VRBO houses/apts we have rented. The owner, Maria, is very welcoming, warm, and easy to communicate with. I would highly recommend this property.

Wonderful home and host

The home was beautiful and the host very gracious. In San Marcos for the birth of our first granddaughter. We had only one small repair needed for a towel bar; this was corrected immediately. Our host checked-in on us and ensured we had a relaxing stay. Enjoyed use of the garage, and the patio was my work and our social area. Recommend highly.

5-stars isn't enough - Such an exceptional home

When you go on vacation, you don't want to have to think about going out to pick up additional items. The owner didn't skip a beat with anything. She had the most incredibly stocked kitchen with spices, oils, nice pots and pans, glasses, a Keurig, and tons of silverware. She had all of the cleaning items and a new sponge as well. The bathrooms had very absorbent and soft towels with plush rugs. She also provided soap, shampoo, conditioner, face wipes, and extra toilet paper. Her Welcome Book explained absolutely everything. The neighborhood was just beautiful and a nice 10-minute walk to a lovely lake. It's only a 15-20 minute drive to the beach and wonderful restaurants, so truly the best location. The owner does have a small unit with a door next to the kitchen, but she wasn't there during our stay. I highly recommend this property!

Wonderful home in quiet neighborhood

My wife and I have stayed in many rental properties. This by far had the most well stocked kitchen! All the utensils you need, even an impressive collection of spices :-) The backyard space was very inviting and the home as well laid out. The issues that we did have the property owner addressed right away. It should be noted that the property owner does live in a separate section of the home, which was not mentioned during booking.

Great place in a quiet neighborhood of San Marcos

We use vacation rentals very frequently. The kitchen in this home by far was the most well stocked kitchen we've experienced! It was so nice to have all of the cooking utensils we could need as well as a large selection of spices. The outdoor space is lovely and the neighborhood is peaceful. The property owner was quick to attend to some issues we did have (it should be noted that she does live in a separate area of the home, which was not clear when we reserved.)
