Great stay!!
8 / 10Excellent·Jul 2026
Nice looking on the inside. Keep an eye out for the area near the back yard. House is old and the climate is super humid so be understandable that things made of wood can rot down and break pretty easy. We personally had a problem with leftover nicotine pouches found all around the pool area and our dog ate one. This whole craziness happened that lead to a vet bill, but the host group were very good about working us on pet fees and reimbursement of the vet bill. Back to the location, its very close to I-10 overpass so it can get loud due to passing cars and a lot of people tend to gather under the overpass. These groups gathering under the overpass can range from car clubs to food trucks and people selling stuff. It tends to change from night to night. I would say this property is great for groups looking to party in town, not so much for families.

First, I am very happy with how the host and VRBO handled our stay. Unfortunately, we had an unexpected and uncontrollable issue with the place that was handled very efficiently. We were able to get a hold of the host contact at 2:30 in the morning, who immediately worked to correct the situation. The next day they had us in a new unit and compensated us accordingly and fair. We understand unexpected problems can arise, so it is how a company handles those issues and we are satisfied with our results. We would definitely rebook with this host and VRBO. Heidi
