Convenient stay for graduation

Our family stayed here for graduation weekend. Having five bathrooms was a big bonus. Nice house with a modern flair. My only suggestion would be for owners to replace downstairs couch/chair with a dining room table. This would enable visitors to have a family meal or play board games.

Very Impressed

We stayed here for TXST Parent weekend. Very spacious and very clean home. It was actually much nicer than what we were expecting, and cheaper than our group piling into 2-3 hotel rooms. Our Daughter only has one year left at TXST.....we wish we would have found this home years ago. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

Great house! Great host!

We loved our time in San Marcos! The house was a perfect space for our family as we moved my son into TXST. It was new, spacious, and clean- we would definitely stay here again! Our host was communicative and very accommodating.

Well spaced house and great access to everything!

Our friend group was 4 couples visiting San Marcos for a weekend river trip. Each bedroom has its own bathroom and the two living rooms gave us space to comfortably hang out in. The hosts were very responsive before and during our trip. Great access to the highway, groceries and within ten minutes of river access from multiple spots. Would def stay again.

Fun Family Getaway

Perfect place to stay for our family float trip. Great loft area for the younger ones to hang out and sleep. Beautiful home with great sized bedrooms, each with their own bathroom. Owners were very helpful and available any time we had a question. Short drive to float the river. Highly recommend.

Great spot, great stay!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this beautiful Vrbo property, and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish! The home was immaculately clean, tastefully decorated, and equipped with every amenity one could need. The location was perfect—quiet and serene, yet conveniently close to local attractions and restaurants. The host was incredibly welcoming and attentive, ensuring we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The thoughtful touches, like fresh welcome basket, made us feel right at home. The spacious living areas and cozy bedrooms provided the perfect setting for a relaxing getaway. I highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a memorable and enjoyable stay.
