Graduation vacation

The property was amazing! We couldn't believe the cleanliness and all the details. It was super comfortable and there was nothing it lacked. We were there for our daughter's Baylor graduation and it made it extra special. We loved being 5 minutes from everything & walking distance from the silos! =)

Great Getaway!

This was my first time using VRBO and it could not have been better. The reservation process was easy, the owners were helpful and accommodating, and the house was even nicer and more spacious than it appears online. The attention to detail was so inviting that all 6 of us are looking forward to booking The Story House again and expanding our group to The Sterling House next door at the same time. You will not be disappointed!!!

Brynn & Ashton made everything as smooth as possible. When we walked in we felt instantly relaxed. The house is so cozy, the beds, pillows, bedding and vibe of The Story House are good if you need to chill. Beautiful Firepit and backyard. The Gustafsons have it DOWN.
