This maintenance is essential to ensure the pool remains in great condition for you and future guests.
โข To ensure proper pool maintenance, please do not turn off the outdoor hose bib/tap, as it controls the automatic pool water filler. If the valve is closed, guests may be responsible for any resulting damage to the pool equipment and additional cleaning costs.

This property was perfect for our needs. My group was there for a bowling tournament so we were not at the house except in the evenings. The pool was clean and refreshing after bowling from 9am to 6pm each day. Highly recommend this place.
Had an excellent time enjoyed the pool and cleanliness of the home

First of all the floors were spotless and really gave the house a clean cool feeling for the start of our summer. The girls all tweens loved being able to sleep together in the 4 bunk beds. Communication was amazing and the beds were very comfortable. Will definitely book again!

Evereverything was great but the weather
We came down because of family passing. The place was great, my cousin and his wife didnt make it. Picked a place with a pool to try to give everyone some time to relax and unwind being why we were all together. Would definately pick this place again next time we come to houston
Everything was really great. House was very clean. The host had nice amenities and good communication. The only two problems were the tall grass and a full garbage can when we arrived. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely book again. Pool was a plus in this heat!

We were in town for a funeral so it was great for that. Everyone had their own space and bathrooms to get ready in. It was very clean. We did not use the pool because it was too cold but it looked very nice for summer. The beds were extremely uncomfortable though. Family complained about all of the beds except the bunks. The pool table was ripped, worn out, and very unlevel. It was in an good neighborhood, it was quiet, and we felt safe.
My brother and I grew up in Mexico City. We came to the US for college, graduated from TAMU, and ended up settling in Houston! If you ever visit Mexico, do let us know! :D
