About this property

Haven in the Woods: Covered parking; Easy entry

Trees, trees, trees!
This property offers comfort indoors and out. With the tall pines and oaks plus the natural perimeter, this comfortable little house in the woods provides our guests with a secluded yard and a covered patio/car port. It truly is a quiet haven in the woods.

Woodside Guesthouse’s spacious design features ample living space and a generous master with ensuite bath. For those working remotely, the floor plan offers a desk in the bedroom plus counter top seating and a full size kitchen table. Living space is both cozy and spacious with matching leather couch and love seat, both of which feature electric recliners. The master features a queen-size bed plus a generously-sized walk-in closet. The kitchen has terrific storage…all you need are groceries. Washer and dryer are provided inside unit.

NOTE: Photos show the rental’s decor in progress. Mirrors, rugs and more will be in place by your arrival to make this house a real home away from home. Owners Frank and Becky Thompson are experienced hosts with other rentals in the area and take great pride in their excellent ratings. While this home is brand new on VRBO, they are certain it will be a top rental in the area very soon as future reviews will tell.

PARTIAL HANDICAP ACCESSIBILITY: All doors are 36 inches wide, and there are no steps on this property. Only the combination tub/shower are not handicap accessible.

PETS CONSIDERED: Owners request a full description of pets before they accept a booking.

This was first-designed to serve as a large "granny flat," so there is another unit on the property, the main house. The two units have completely separate entries and yards and also have individually designated parking. They both boast Woodside charm, privacy and comfort.

A wonderful place to stay.

This was a nice little property tucked away in a wooded neighborhood. The hosts were great and accommodating. It’s great for a couple or for small family if need be.

Great place to stay!

Becky was an amazing hostess and responded very quickly to messages. We were there during Hurricane Beryl and she checked on us and made sure everything was good. The house is in a nice neighborhood, was very clean and had everything we needed. We would definitely stay here again!

Comfortable, Relaxed and Secure

Warm greetings welcomed us to a comfortable home. Although we were secluded, we always felt secure. The kitchen was set up so we could cook our own meals. The property is only a short distance to shopping, dining and entertainment. A very relaxed vacation.

Review of Woodside Guest House

The property was perfect for what I needed and was as described. My month-long stay while waiting for my new home to be ready couldn't have gone smoother. The property had what I needed and the fenced yard worked very well for my dog. Becky was extremely responsive and helpful. I would definitely recommend this property!

Just like home - even better

Becky is the best possible host. Checked in occasionally. The unit is immaculate, well stocked, and could not ask for more serene setting. My doggies loved the fenced grassy yard. Quiet streets so able to take them on long walks. We loved the decor too.Convenient to restaurants and groceries. Would rate it a 10 if we could!

Wonderful - could not be better.

The property is a little away from Tomball which makes it amongst trees. The owner has set up for taking in dogs. He has built an amazing dog run which gives the dog freedom to run outside. The cottage is very nice to stay in that it is clean, gives you everything you want including washer and dryer. Supply's for everything you would need are available from day one which gives you a good start.Becky met us at door, explained all the basics and gave us her contact number. No need to call in 2 months of staying there in comfort and seclusion although town is just a few miles away.

About the host

Hosted by Frank and Becky Thompson

Host profile image
Frank and Becky Thompson married in 1987 and traveled the road of entrepreneurship, with Frank first operating a mobile gymnastics company and then a full-service tree company until recently. Becky was always in the mix of those businesses while she homeschooled their four children (all adults now) and taught homeschool classes for many others. With gymnastics and trees behind them and their kids launched, the Thompsons are focusing entirely on their short/midterm rental properties, which have gradually and happily become full-time jobs.
We began hosting short-term and midterm rental guests in 2015 when Frank converted our first rental, formerly his office for the mobile gymnastics company, into a lovely two-bedroom apartment. Even though the NW Houston area is not a vacation destination, the business model was perfect for families in the growing area who were between homes, business people on temporary assignment, traveling nurses, and retirees visiting down south for the winter months. With that one success and Frank's love for home rehabilitation, we joined the fix-and-flip craze, dropped the flip idea, and began adding to our properties. As of this writing, we are up to 10 properties in Tomball, Magnolia, and Cypress.
Our favorite part of it all is the people. We have met fascinating folks from all walks of life, even all over the world. Best of all, this business has not only blessed us. Our homes have served countless people now - those displaced by storm damage, some stranded in the area by health issues while on vacation, missionaries here on furlough, professional ball players in the off-season, people in the area to care for sick and aging relatives, and often those here for wonderful holidays and celebrations. It is a blessing to be a blessing, and we pray our properties will bless many more individuals in the future.

Why they chose this property

Guests love this property for location, space, comfort and solitude.
- Location: While guests enjoy the quiet natural surroundings, they also love that it is nicely located between Tomball and the Woodlands. That means it is just a few minutes from the charm of downtown Tomball, the urban chic of the Woodlands, and all the necessities like groceries, gas, well-known eateries, and Walmart.
- Space: Guests are so surprised that a one-bedroom rental is so spacious! In fact, it is the perfect property for someone working remotely - just one bedroom but space to spread out.
- Comfort Inside and Out: Guests love the safe feeling of the area and the comfortable furnishings inside. You can curl up with a cup of coffee and a good book or go on a long walk with equal satisfaction and comfort.
- Solitude: Even though the rest of the big world is at your fingertips, this property is extremely private and peaceful. With a separate entrance and private covered parking, this rental feels worlds away from the main house.
