Beautiful home, very spaciousness, lots for everyone to do, from the theatre room to the pool table and the spacious outdoors.

We wanted to love this property, but it was obvious it wasnt taken care of. Day of check in we noticed the grass around the house was entirely too high, red wasps claimed a spot every 10 foot or so around the roof and the swing, photographs of the property were outdated, the pond is not close to an acre and severly neglected and a bag of rotten garbage was left in the garage. After making a grocery order for 4 days of food to feed 11 people, we discovered the refrigerator was not cooling. Contacted the manager and had to call back multiple times for an update on fixing the problem. While waiting for an answer, we discovered one of the AC units did not have power. We called back to inform the POC for the property but the calls went unanswered. It was not until i emailed the property manager that i received a text from the POC advising someone would respond. After the AC was fixed and the mini refrigerator arrived, we attempted to relax in the hot tub only to find the breaker would trip if the jets were turned on. Frustrated with the day we attempted to put the kids down to bed and discovered the toliet in the bunk room would only flush when it wanted to. Over all it was painfully obvious no one checks the property prior to renters arriving. If it were not for Mr Calvin, the grass would not have been cut nor would we have had a mini refrigerator to hold what cold food we could shove into it. Mr calvin went above and beyond to check on us and apologize for the inconveniences.

3rd time staying!

5/5

We’ve stayed at this property 3 different times. We have an NFL draft watch party with around 8 adults and 2 kids. This is a fantastic house and we love coming back each year!

We love the location and the amenities that the house offers. It fits our event and our group perfectly! The big theater room is where we spend most of our time, but we also love the pool table and the hot tub!

Full disclosure - we did have some trouble this year when we checked in. We arrived at 4:30p and the house was still being cleaned. Then we discovered that the internet was not working and that the projector in the theater room wasn’t hitting the screen (mis-aligned). Thankfully, we own a smart home company and so we were able to diagnose the problems with the WiFi and we also had a ladder and zip ties to help align the projector. I’d recommend this property hiring an IT contact who can check and fix issues on the fly, because had we not been the renters in this situation, I don’t expect that either problem would have been solved.

One more note - the hot tub is great, but the control board needs an update badly. It’s the same control board that has been there each year we have been, and it doesn’t work 100% of the time. One year, we were instructed to flip the breaker to reset the control board, so that is what we do when it doesn’t work. Either way, it’s time for a replacement.

Altogether, great trip. We plan on returning next year, we just hope these few things could be addressed to make the stay even better!

Love-LOVE-LLLLLove - I wish I could move this house to my property and live in it!

5/5

We loved being on the outskirts of town away from all the hustle and bustle. Getting to stay in peace and quiet was the Ultimate Relaxation for us! However, with a short drive, we still had access to everything.

We stayed the week of Christmas! As an extra bonus, we arrived to a nice decorated Christmas tree in the living room. The house was large enough that we never felt cramped. I like all the designated rooms for us to spread out! The farmhouse style decor was warm and welcoming. There was firewood ready for the fireplace! We didn’t catch anything in the pond but it was fun to go throw the line out while the neighbors horses and donkey came to greet us at the fence!

If we are ever in Dallas again, we WILL stay here again!
