First of all let me saying the pictures online does not show the full potential of it!! My family and I did not except the it to be so spacious… the fact that everyone had a bathroom in their bedroom that and an extra in the hall so no one had to wait to get in

Karina provided us with detailed instructions and was always very responsive! A beautiful property that has the perfect location. It was a very short walk to the San Marcos River and park. Also, short driving distance to popular areas such as the San Marco Shopping Outlet. The house provided all the things we needed brand new! First rental that we were not missing something. Plenty of space for our families, and big yard for the kids to run around and enjoy. Will definitely be back!
