Perfect for a large group/family
We loved this house! We loved how private it was. We spent the day at the lake with family and evenings playing cornhole in the large backyard. It accomodated all 12 of us very well. The kids loved the kid room and we enjoyed the kitchen space and family room. Host Ashley was very responsive and wonderful to work with. We would definitely book again if the dates are available for next year. So close to downtown bellaire.
