Beautiful little home. It had all the amenities we needed and wanted. Hosts were amazing, if we needed anything they were right there to help. We had a great little get together with my husbands brother and sister. It was great to be able to just sit around and reminisce and enjoy each others company. Thank you for such a wonderful 3 days.

This is truly a luxury home. The property is even prettier than depicted in the photos. The decor is fabulous, it's super clean, and it smells good too! The Kitchen is stocked with everything you need for preparing gourmet meals; seriously. The land scamping and the grounds are professionally maintained, immaculate, and absolutely beautiful. The back yard has destination areas that include garden art statuary(very tastefully done), a separate firepit seating area, BBQ area, and a cozy back porch complete with seating and a bistro area for two. We were so pleasantly surprised. Kathy goes above and beyond to make sure your stay at the Dwelling Place is everything you could hope for and more. We asked for special provisions upon our arrival, and no problem. Kathy made sure our request was fulfilled, and she even provided more than we asked for. Can't say enough good things about this property and its host. Truly a Premiere Verbo property. We would definitely stay here again! Our only regret is that we booked a short stay in this jewel of a cottage. We all wished we could have stayed longer.

We only needed one night this time around. My husband was having surgery @ Baylor Dallas and we had to be there @ 5:00 am this morning. We wanted to cut out some driving time plus coming threw construction at night is hard for me. So it was safer to come in closer to leave that early. Kathy made sure we were able to do just that. I just love her hospitality and friendlyness. She even prayed for my husband and our safety. We will never forget what she done for us and, it was more than she knew. It was still comfortable as the first time we came and I'm sure it won't be the last. God bless Kathy and her Family.

Great house!

Girls weekend! This house is within walking distance (.7 miles) from downtown McKinney. We went to the Wine Walk, had dinner and drinks at The Yard (fantastic place with tons of outside sitting areas) and ended at the Speak Easy on the square. The house is beautifully decorated and well appointed. Nice neighborhood and the owner is extremely responsive. Would definitely recommend!!!

This is our second visit to the Dwelling Place. We visited last Thanksgiving and knew we would be back! McKinney is a wonderful place and the Dwelling Place is within walking distance of all locations; coffee shops, restaurants, shopping and attractions. It is literally in the middle of North Dallas and all roads lead to its location.We had a wonderful visit in August. Everything was green and growing, with flowers blooming. We could spend more time on the porch for morning coffee and evening chats around the fire pit.Most importantly, it gave us another chance to get to know our hosts a little better. They are very involved in the community and want everyone to share their love for McKinney. We followed up on many of their suggestions and enjoyed them all.Check-in is easy. The luxury accommodations made us comfortable and prepared for a new day. The kitchen is state-of-the-art and the laundry is remarkable. No detail is overlooked. We highly recommend The Dwelling Place to anyone who wants to get away from city/suburban bustle and go back to a simpler life and time! Thanks Kathy and Sayers!

Beautiful home near historic McKinney

My daughter, two grandchildren and I stayed in this beautiful home and enjoyed the quaint historic town. The home was well appointed and all the details have been handled and taken care of. The street was super quiet and we especially enjoyed the front porch swing. Communication with the host was efficient and responsive. We would love to stay here again.

Nice

Let me start with the communication and hospitality that the hostess delivered. The wine was a nice touch after the long drive through traffic. Everything was just like the pictures and everything was in its place. The house and neighbors were quiet. Everything was clean, and the kitchen was well organized. There were plenty of fresh towels. That little walk-in-closet was perfect for his/hers. Plenty of hangers to hang your clothes. I wanted to sit out in the swing and in the back yard but, it was a bit too cold. The front and the back yard was beautiful. I loved the large pavers and rock together in the front. Thank you both so much for a pleasant stay. I would recommend this to my friends and family.

PERFECT!

This property has a vintage charm with the luxury of modern upgrades. It was clean and comfortable with everything we needed for a week-long stay. Our hosts were thoughtful, accommodated special requests and were easily accessible. We travel to this area several times yearly and cannot imagine staying elsewhere.

A Jewel In North Texas

A jewel in North Texas, the Dwelling Place is a charming and well-appointed home within walking distance of historic McKinney's quaint restaurants and shops and within minutes of many other attractions in North Texas. Our hosts anticipated every need and still checked in to see if we were satisfied or if there was anything more we needed. The home is immaculate and comfortable, situated on a quiet side street. There are patios front and rear on a beautiful yard where I can imagine enjoying a coffee or reading a good book (little chilly during our stay). We were in town to celebrate an early holiday with our grandchildren, shop for Christmas and enjoy some down time. The Dwelling Place is more than a place to overnight. It was an integral part of our experience and a wonderful place to start our holiday. Thanks Kathy and Sayres for the warm hospitality and enjoyable stay! We will be back!

Spectacular Home

My stay at this charming historic VRBO property in McKinney, TX was absolutely incredible! From the moment I walked in, I could feel the warmth and character of the home. The blend of original architectural details with modern amenities created the perfect balance of comfort and nostalgia. The home was immaculately clean and well-maintained, with thoughtful touches throughout that made it feel like a true retreat. The location was ideal—just a short walk to the quaint downtown McKinney area with its fantastic shops, restaurants, and scenic parks. We enjoyed relaxing on the lovely porch and taking in the beautiful neighborhood, which felt both peaceful and welcoming. The hosts were incredibly responsive and clearly care about providing a top-notch experience for their guests. Whether you’re looking for a romantic getaway, a family vacation, or just a peaceful escape in a beautiful historic home, I highly recommend this VRBO property. It’s a true gem in McKinney, and I can’t wait to return!
