My family and i had an amazing stay. The place is perfect for a multi family stay. The rooms were great and the area was very spacious. We enjoyed the pool and quiet living space.

Hey Ashley! Thank you so much for this review, as it is very much appreciated! Also, thank you so much for your patience as we fixed your issue. You and your group were great! ~AnaLisa~
The place was great, very clean, honestly the pics don’t do it justice. I felt it was a nicer set up than pics. We only had an issue with the WiFi and AC due to the rain on first night, but Ana Lisa was on top of it and had it fixed the next morning..our group enjoyed our stay very much…pool was awesome…

Hey Rosita! Thank you so much for this review! I give all credit to my cleaners as they are queens in my world! I will pass on the message. And from Rob and I, Thank you all for being so patient and understanding with the WiFi/AC issue. The rainstorm wreaked havoc on the system, but Rob was diligent and figured it out. Thank you again and it was great to meet y'all! Blessings!
The pictures posted of this property do this spot no justice! This property is beautiful. It is great place to enjoy your big family or group of friends.
Loved that each family had their own bungalow with shared jack and Jill bathrooms. The pool is great and that we had it to cool off on these hot days! The adults and kids loved it.
The main house has 2 refrigerators and very spacious kitchen and dining area. The only one issue we had was the dryer was not fully working. Other than that, the property manager was very good at giving us directions and periodically checked on us to make sure all was good! We will definitely be back. Loved it!!
Great set up for multiple families dislike that they do not have a kid fence around the pool ! I feel like everything in the kitchen was dirty dishes had to be re-washed before you use them. I just feel like whoever had the house before you checked in they relied on whoever rented it to clean it instead of a housekeeping service coming in to clean before the next guest that was very disappointing as well .. TV didn’t work in the main house. The lady did say she’d come and fix it ..

Hello Courtney, Thank you so much for the review. We actually have a cleaning service, so if there is a next time, please let us know and we will send someone over to redo. That is unacceptable. Also, I have to apologize for the television. When you said it was not a big deal that the remote did not work on the tv, I should have still come over with a new remote, as it turned out, it just needed batteries. My fault totally. As for the fence around the pool, that is the way the house was built and we do not advertise that there is a fence as the photos show there is not. Again, thank you for the review and letting us know areas in which we need to improve. I will let my cleaning service know.
Staying here was by far the best choice qe could have made. My friends and I wanted to celebrate the end of the school year for our kids and this house was so accommodating to us all!! We had a total of 6 different family's and having the options of each family having their own private room that was separate from each other gave us the privacy we all needed and having the main house as the source od the gathers for cooking and entertainment qas such a blessing! The kitchen had every cooking utensils, pots, pans etc that we needed. The pool was so wonderful to have to cool down for the hot summer days. We loved that the home was secluded enough but not too far from the frio river and shopping stores. High recommended staying here and would definitely rent this home again!
The set up was amazing for large families! Our only criticism is that the beds in all of the bungalow style rooms were extremely uncomfortable. Also, I think the dryer needs a new heating element. Our clothes would be in there for hours and still not dry!
The kitchen was stocked with every pot, utensil, small appliance that you could possibly need. We loved the horseshoe pit and the pool!
We are a large family (21 total) and this property accommodated us perfectly. Loved the pool and how close it was to Garner State Park. Would 100% stay again!!!
We wanted a place to get away from all the hustle and bustle and just unwind, eat good food and play games. This property was the perfect spot to accomplish this.
The property was perfect to fit 13 of our employees. A main set back was that the beds were very uncomfortable...and it was odd that towels(bath and hand) were not provided. The property is beautiful but the bushes and flower beds were way overgrown- to the point where it blocked the walkway to the door. You will also need to bring multiple fly swatters...the insects that are flying around and getting into the rooms was alot.
Other than that- enjoy!
Loved property but house keeping was lax. Large oil spots on master sheets plus bed was short sheeted. Did not know if clean sheets from previous renter or sloppy house keeping. Mold in master shower. Kind made start iffy. Kids loved property. Liked layout of mainhouse. House keeping did not put garbage bags for outside area. Had to improvise. For $1000 night rental thought they could do better
