Entire house including garage. We will NOT be here when you are here. Please keep in mind that we DO live here and we rent this out to supplement my income while I'm in school at TXSTU getting my masters. We have children as well that need a place to live after renting out. We have wonderful neighbors who help keep watch of our home and we are either staying in the neighborhood or within 1 hour of it and check on it often. Our neighbors have cameras that show the outside property, fyi.

Other things to note:

We no longer have a cowboy pool but are working on getting a sauna, hot tub, above ground pool before the summer of 2025. Please ask.

We have small dogs that we take with us when people rent out our home and we clean very thoroughly, however, it is possible that there will be some dog hair in case you are highly allergic.

We have a clothes steamer in the laundry room. We DO NOT have an iron.

We prefer families and older, responsible adults are welcome..

Again please don't hesitate to ask any questions.

Rooms were clean along with living room and kitchen. Backyard was spacious and set up for children usage. Front and backyard well maintained. Host was quick to respond to any questions. My two brothers and I agreed that we could have used more closet space or space to hang our hanging clothes.

The only things I would change are the ring in the entry was a trip hazard and wadded up under our suitcase.

Spent the weekend while we were moving my daughter into her dorm. Cute home with a nice yard and the location was great!

Great location for floating the river at texas tubes! You have to uber to the front of the float if you don't wanna drink and drive but the end of the float is an 8 minute walk and the shuttle bus drive will actually drop you off if you don't wanna walk. Zip lines for the kids, darts, and great outdoor space!
