We surprised my daughter for her 40th birthday and the house was perfect for the occasion.
5.0 / 5.0
Best house and host ever! The house is even more beautiful in person—both inside and out. The backyard is fantastic, with a wonderful pool and plenty of space for activities. During our stay, a bad storm caused a power outage, but the host was exceptional in communicating updates. They even offered us an alternate house to get ready in if the power didn’t return in time for our event. I’ll definitely be booking here again the next time I’m in Dallas!

Nothing like the pictures

Needs some updating. The coy pond they had, had no fish in it and it was a breeding ground for mosquitoes. The host was very nice. My recommendation for the pool is that it gets checked on daily or every other day. It was cloudy when we checked in on Sunday.
4.0 / 5.0
We had a very enjoyable stay. Everyone was very comfortable and we loved the quality time we got to spend together with family. The host was extremely communicative and kind.
… with that said, I want to offer some constructive criticism I will message the host about directly. I think the house needs a little “TLC”. Meaning, it was a little run down in comparison to the immaculate photos listed on the VRBO website. I think if this is done, to reflect more accuracy, it’ll be somewhere we’d love to come back to. Thank you for having us!!

Loved the house and our host was excellent and very helpful.

Check in was easy. Pool and hot tub were a plus for our group.
5.0 / 5.0
We had two families traveling together and wanted a space for things to do close to the city and also keep kiddos entertained back at the house! The outdoor space was lovely, plenty of space indoors as well. The host was friendly and we received perfectly detailed instructions for our stay!

Property was nice and had everything we needed. Listing was accurate. Manager was easy to communicate with. Overall we are happy with our stay.
5.0 / 5.0
Our family had a hard year and decided to meet in person from 3 different states to address some branding needs in our respective companies. We didn’t want to make it feel like work for the teens, so we looked for a resort like home with Wi-Fi, computers, pool, kitchen, etc.
This home was perfect. It was too cold for swimming and we were too busy to jump in the hot tub. But the creative juices were flowing with the well laid out backdrop. It was close to downtown Dallas, but in a quiet neighborhood. Pretty much every amenity needed was on site. The only issues we had was that our Teslas did not fit in the garage because of the washers and dryers and I could not find any scissors. Didn't know the garage had a dryer outlet or I would have brought my EV charger. But the neighborhood was fine and we had no problems parking in the driveway nor finding nearby charging stations.
The kids were very impressed with the set ups to connect gaming systems and electronics plus the open floor plan was great for meetings and meals. We were thankful that all 3 baths were full baths for our large party. We even had groceries delivered to the cleaning crew before our arrival so that we could maximize our time. We would definitely book here again.

Me and 11 of my friends stayed here last weekend. The house is exactly what the pictures show. It was clean, easy to check in, had all the amenities, and great communication with the host. We had a few hiccups, but the host resolved them asap even when they weren’t in town. Everyone said they slept great and the beds were comfortable (which is very rare), the decor was so minimal and cute, parking was great, I like how we had access to the garage, never lagged on the wifi, loved that they supply shampoo and conditioner, even though we had 11 people, we never felt cramped, 3 bathrooms, the room closest to the kitchen has barn doors so they said they could hear us in the kitchen very easily, but it wasn’t to end of the world. I loved this place and would definitely stay here again and I would recommend it to anyone!! Thank you for great customer service and providing an awesome house!! Also, this seems like a vacation home/rental (no family pictures, personal belongings, or signs of long term stay. I liked that feeling. I hate rentals that are also people’s actual homes. Kinda creepy).
4.0 / 5.0
The house was very nice, especially the backyard. We thoroughly enjoyed the pool and outdoor area. The house was mostly clean, except for the master bathroom. There was hair in the shower from the previous visitors. There was also a beer bottle left on a window sill and toys and ponytail holders by the pool. Most of the pool floats were broken, so we were not able to use those. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.
5.0 / 5.0
The house was in great condition, and the outdoor area was amazing. The pool, hot tub, patio, fire pit, and games provided offered plenty of different areas and activities throughout our stay. We were more than pleased with our stay and stayed at the house more than expected due to the variety of activities that kept us busy longer than we expected.
5.0 / 5.0
We had 4 adults and 8 kids stay for multiple nights and there was enough space for everyone. The yard kept the kids and adults equally entertained. Camilla was quick to respond and answer questions amd was very accommodating. I would definitely stay here again!
5.0 / 5.0
We rented this house for our out of town family coming in to celebrate a special birthday. The yard was amazing for entertaining young kids, while the covered patio was the perfect spot for adults to relax and supervise the kiddos. Camilla was super accommodating for our requests and needs.

Had it all. Games, pool, beds and great host. Would 100% recommend staying here.

We really enjoyed spending a long weekend at this property. There was so much to do in the backyard. Some of which we didn’t even have time to appreciate! The beds were comfortable and the rooms were spacious. My group was 7 women and no one had to share beds or sleep on the top bunk so everyone was very comfortable. Would recommend!!
5.0 / 5.0
We booked this property for the pool and it did not disappoint. Our family usually travels to PCB for a week at the beach but we could not all get away at the same time and we booked this property for a staycation. The home was very comfortable and equipped for our family of 8. We cook in and had everything we need and the owner was kind enough to bring a crock pot when I asked about it. The beds were comfortable and clean! There were plenty of beach towels, bath towels, shampoo, body wash etc. We only needed our clothing and there was a washer and dryer if we needed to do laundry. We stayed in and visited, sunned and played games so we did not see much of the sites, but the location is great for a Dallas visit. Thank you Camilla for sharing your lovely home.

Wonderful Outdoor Location
This was a perfect place for what we were looking for! The pool and gazebo were very enjoyable. We had unfortunate timing with the AC going out just before we got there, but Camilla was very up front and got someone out there to fix it quickly. It took a bit to get cooled back down, but she refunded us $150 to go out to lunch while they were working the repairs. Would stay again!

We enjoyed use of this home for sharing with our friends and family and would recommend the space (especially the backyard!) to others .
