Great spot for your big group
Place is as advertised and owner was incredibly nice. Large dining area, outdoor area, kitchen, and living room comfortably house 8 of us. Pool is fantastic, Wi-Fi is fast. Plenty of silverware. Beverage chiller is awesome. Stove/oven/micro work great. Some chain restaurants and fast food in walking distance (and Star bucks) also a Wal-Mart less than .5 mile. Super cute area. Notes: only one pan and it's not big, be prepared. Sheet only on bed (summer) so byo blanket, ice maker isn't working but a bag of reddy is easy. Lots of baking dishes, cooking utensils, mixing bowls, and muffin tins. You feel very set up for success here.

Disappointed & Hot
Lystra met us at the property right on time to do the walk through. Written instructions would have been just fine. Let’s start with the pros: Lystra was nice and attentive. Pool was refreshing. Plenty of seating inside and out for a large family. Drink cooler was a huge plus. Now the cons: The freezer wouldn’t make ice until the day we left. Let Lystra know and she thought she fixed it but didn’t. Had to purchase ice which was fine because the freezer was pretty gross. The heat upstairs was terrible & the thermostats were off limits and in a locked lock box. Called Lystra about the heat and was told it would cool off eventually, it did not!! Ceiling fans were so dusty but we had to use them due to the heat upstairs. The dryer had electrical tape holding it together. Had to purchase frying pans cause what was there was a joke. House needs a deep cleaning, new paint, wall repairs and attention to the base boards. The topper was being charged extra for moving 2 pool umbrellas. Moved 1 umbrella a couple inches and the other maybe 3 feet. We followed all rules of the house and not moving pool umbrellas wasn’t one of the rules.

Highly recommended!!!
Lystra was the best host. She was very kind and throughcin regards to explaining how to operate each functional fixture in the home. My friends and i were in town for the game against the Colts (Go Colts). The property more than exceeded our expectations. The location is within 20-30 minutes to Houston's main attractions. The lovely pool and spa topped ot all off for me. I didn't want to leave! I'll stay here each time that im in Houston if possible.

This was our third time staying here and we still love this place! It’s a perfect little getaway for the whole family and very accommodating. We had so many plans and we only left the house twice because the kids didn’t want to get out of the pool. We will definitely be back for another visit. Thank you, Marlene, for being so wonderful!

Great home with an amazing pool area
We loved the house! The pool area was amazing. It not only had a large pool with a hot tub and waterfall feature, but also had many options for seating. We were there during a hot stretch and it was nice to sit in the shade at the table under the covered patio. There was plenty of room inside for the 8 adults we had staying there. It also had the basic necessities in the bathrooms and kitchen which was also nice. The neighborhood was quiet and within walking distance to many restaurants and stores. Lystra also met us at the house to show us around. She was quick in answering my texts and the communication was excellent. If you want a great house with an amazing backyard pool, this is the place for you.

Great family home
Our family had so much fun staying here over Easter. The outdoor area is amazing. The kids loved the pool/hot tub combo. It was chilly and rainy during our stay so the hot tub was amazing. The house was very big for our group of 7 (3 kids and 4 adults). We loved the upstairs deck seating area. The neighborhood was very nice. We went for a few walks. Very close drive to groceries and food! The kitchen is renovated and had most of what we needed to cook there. A skillet for breakfast would be nice but we made do. The upstairs is pretty outdated but was perfectly fine for sleeping. Everything was very clean. Lystra was very nice to work with. Very accommodating. She met us at the house upon check in and went over everything we needed to know. Everything worked out well for our family! Thanks!

And the backyard is pure paradise ❤️ The size of the pool and the patio was resort like and absolutely beautiful. The property manager was very nice, and helpful during our stay. Lystra did everything in her power to ensure we enjoyed our stay. I definitely recommend this home, especially for large families.

Good stay but a couple of issues
The house is absolutely gorgeous, however, there were a couple of things that bothered us a bit. The sheets on the bed were meant to be a crisp white but you can tell they were old as they started turning yellow. I’d suggest getting new ones. We bought our own pillows/pillowcases bc of the makeup policy. Same with towels. We had our own. The one major complaint I had was that we couldn’t control the air. There’s a lock box covering both thermostats. The first night we were all miserable as it was HOT. The next day after speaking to the host, she adjusted it for us. However, it was a nightly thing. It was like we had to have permission to get cool air and I didn’t like that at all.

Home away
House was much bigger than we needed for our family of 4 but we enjoyed having the space to spread out. The pool and hot tub were delightful for the kids even though the weather was not in our favor during our stay. The kitchen was well equipped and there were plenty of fresh towels. Very conveniently located in close proximity to stores but set far enough back for some peace. Lystra was great in meeting all our our requests. Would definitely stay here again if we come back to the Houston area.

Marlene was soo nice, my family and I came down for a vacation during thanksgiving, the house was beautiful and the owner was very accommodating, we had a wonderful time! The only reason we are giving 4 stars is because the house could really use a deep cleaning (with our cleaning fee) and a fresh paint job. Other than that we had a wonderful time and would love to come back.
