we enjoyed our visit in Lubbock to attend our family reunion. The house was spacious and clean, and the location was nearby to everything we needed. It was wonderful to be able to travel with our sweet fur baby. The backyard was fenced and safe for her to go out when needed. We walked to a nearby park and several eating places close by. We will certainly choose this home whenever we travel to Lubbock again.

And the owner was very sweet and accommodating :)

House was very clean. Good location. I’m from Lubbock so I know the location isn’t the best but it was close to fast food restaurants. Very roomy. Only thing I would suggest is changing the shower head in the master bathroom. Took forever to shower.

Everything was great, and the snacks were a nice touch. There is a nice yard, and it is a quiet neighborhood. It would be nice if one of the rooms had a king bed since there is definitely room, but that was the only negative.

Drawn to this listing because of location, three queen beds and being pet friendly. We drove from Fort Worth to pick up our twin grandsons. Have dinner with their dad. We have two maltipoo pups and thought we may have to bring them but we didn't. Stayed just one night. Loved our accommodations. After dinner my husband and I along with the twins watched a Hallmark movie while the boys devoured complimentary cookies and the fireplace 'crackled'. Sweet evening. Thank you Texas Tech folks for a relaxing stay. We appreciated your every care, effort.

We enjoyed our stay so much! The owner was so welcoming, and had clear communication right off the bat.The house was beautiful, clean and welcoming. You can tell the owner cares about the house and her guests. It also smelled good for it being a pet friendly place. We were planning on having a puppy with us overnight but we ended up picking it up the following day, but had I needed to bring the puppy there, It would’ve been perfect for her as well. Enclosed backyard, easy access, beautiful bathrooms, and everything you need to feel comfortable and at home. I would recommend this as a top 10 place to stay!

This is our 2nd stay at this property. This stay the property looked a bit rundown and needed a more thorough cleaning. We observed a broken screen door closer, dirty back porch, squeaky master bed frame. Other wise the interior was in okay shape, and the host did leave snacks and other accompaniments that facilitate our stay. I would recommend the host invest a few dollars to update the paint on the exterior & interior, add some landscaping, leave more wood for use in the fireplace, and clean up the backyard so it’s more presentable.

My family and I had a wonderful stay at the sandlot. One of my children had to have surgery at the children's hospital so instead of staying at a hotel we stayed here. The house is less than 10 minutes from the hospital and gave us a ton of room to spread out.

My mom and I traveled to Lubbock for a procedure she had there. We totally LOVED this home!!! We were so comfortable and it’s located close to the hospital. As it turns out, we had to go right back to Lubbock unexpectedly and stayed for a second time in one week. We’re going back in a couple of weeks and we’ll definitely be staying here again!!!

I would highly recommend this location! The decor inside is cute & there were many thoughtful amenities added. The host has been so communicative from my inquiries prior to booking, to my checking out. The home is big- 3 BR. The outdoor area was so cute. This would be great for a return tech alumni group, even including pups. I love that the owner added a wheelchair ramp at the front entrance.
