Highly recommend! The place was wonderful and exactly what we were looking for. It was just us (and our furbaby) but is a great layout for 2 couples. Well appointed, very comfortable and great location. And the property manager, Melissa, was outstanding with her customer service. We will gladly rent again. It is also close to the Guadalupe River Side Trail, nice trail for a morning hike.
