I had an open line of communication with the host via text. There were no issues to report, I just had questions about where to find places? Recommendations? Concerns about flooding on the property and surrounding streets. The rooms were clean. The beds and pillows were amazing. The walk in closets begged me to stay longer. The place included all amenities that made the place feel like home. There are stores nearby and within a 20 minute drive alot of big retail chains available. We will definitely stay again.

Beautiful house set in the hills at Canyon Lake. The check in instructions were precise and the house was just as described. Very serene with a beautiful patio where you can sit and watch the deer. The couch with the built in recliners is a nice touch so you can put your feet up after a day of shopping!

Highly recommend! The place was wonderful and exactly what we were looking for. It was just us (and our furbaby) but is a great layout for 2 couples. Well appointed, very comfortable and great location. And the property manager, Melissa, was outstanding with her customer service. We will gladly rent again. It is also close to the Guadalupe River Side Trail, nice trail for a morning hike.
