If you haven't been to the Ft. Worth Stockyards before, you should know that it's an incredible entertainment district a few blocks wide...surrounded by a pretty rough neighborhood. This house is probably the nicest place to stay for several miles in either direction...modern, cute, quirky, spotlessly clean, gorgeous bathrooms, with a truly spectacular pool. The home is very secure, so you should take comfort in the bars on the windows, the gated driveway, etc., rather than be uncomfortable about it! You can walk to the heart of the district only 2-3 blocks from this house. There's a truly fabulous Fiesta grocery store about a mile away with every provision you'd need. All the local liquor stores are tiny with very limited selections, so plan on driving further to stock up on the quality stuff. The kitchen in the house is gorgeous and well appointed. (I'm a chef, and the condition of kitchens in rentals is normally my biggest pet peeve!)
If you're attending an event or partying for the weekend anywhere in the Stockyards or Joe T. Garcia's, you won't find a more convenient, spotless place to stay. Only potential drawback is that the beds in two of the bedrooms are taller than any beds I've seen in my life (think saddle height!...in keeping with the theme) and a stepladder to get in and out is absolutely mandatory, unless you've brought a pole vault with you. (Step ladders are provided, but it's not quite tall enough for anyone under 5'8" in the one bedroom with the highest bed.) It's amusing, and the beds are super comfy, but anyone with any mobility challenge might find it impossible to get into bed, and be careful sitting up so the ceiling fan doesn't smack you! One bedroom has a normal height bed, and both pullouts in the living room are of normal height.
