Comfortable & Roomy Stay

We stayed here while helping our daughter move. The house was very relaxing, from the comfortable beds to the extra long couch and chaise we could stretch out on at the end of a long day. Very clean and great communication from the owner!

More spacious than you would think

Because of the layout of the house, it felt more spacious than the square footage. Great place for a family. Enjoyed playing Uno around the kitchen table. Could use a mirror in the bedrooms, maybe on the back of the doors.

Baylor Move-In Was Great

My family stayed at this property while we moved my son into his freshman year at Baylor. It was perfect for our needs. It truly is cozy and the beds were super comfortable. The living room was great to hang out and watch tv as well. We loved the secure feeling of closing the gate at night. Property owner was quick to respond to any questions we had. We would definitely stay here again.
