Overall we had a lovely time in this home! All the major things were great…comfy beds, fairly clean, lots of space! The 4 stars is because were minor repairs all thru the house(broken things, flooring coming up in some places etc)… simple repairs would have made this place a 5 star. the views are nice…the pool was nice…game room was fun (but not all worked)… wifi worked but was a little slow. Plenty of towels, but def bring your own shampoo/soap…. there are no extra blankets except the thin quilt on bed, so that would be something to bring! We drove to Kemah and clearlake area for dinner each night (about 20ish min) and enjoyed getting out a bit. Overall its a great space and with just a little TLC it could be even better!

Not enough space for a thorough review. The house was dirty and the vinyl plank flooring was in horrible disrepair with multiple loose tiles, holes, and trip hazards. There was no hot water when we arrived so I sent a text at 6:36 pm to the number given to me in the event of a problem. Then, I waited, and waited......At 7:12 I called the phone number provided and was told that they had responded to my text yet I had no text message response. I wasn't told that the response would not be to my text message but as a new message in the VRBO app. I was told to check the breakers and to move the faucet handles completely back and forth, which I had already done. Still no hot water. I was told they would contact the maintenance people but couldn't guarantee the would be out that evening. Well, they never showed and I never heard back from them to say they wouldn't be out tonight or when they would be there. Needless to say, we all had cold showers that night and heated water on the stove to give warm baths to our youngest ones. They finally called about 9 am the next day and said someone would come but no idea when but promised she would let me know when she found out still never heard back. Maintenance did show up and fixed the issue. Other than the hot water issue there was a water leak so bad the street had to be dug up and we were out of water completely for a few hours. There was trash in the unmowed yard, a rickety pier with loose boards. So much more but not enough room.

Do yourself a favor and stay somewhere else. We ended up leaving early when we discovered we were sharing the house with mice. 3 of the 4 chairs around fire pit are broken, only one of the arcade games work. They made that area look better by using AI pics. The room on first floor is musty, no one could sleep on there. Grill not usable due to filth. Had to wash anything in kitchen we wanted to use because of being dirty. Floor in the bedroom where kids would be had the floor torn up.
